Work Weekend

Daddy's muscle and big equipment know-how, Mommy's desire for beauty and her effort with a monkey (me) on her back!, and one borrowed/rented tractor ... we're getting stuff done around this place. Almost ready for Grandma and Grandpa!

I Love to Play at the Ranch!

Here's my tumbling tower laugh :)

I see you ... and I'm coming to get you.

A boy's gotta have his share of sticks to play with. Just getting the hang of this guy.

Beginnings of a phone conversation?

Hard at work.

Kiss attack!!! How I LOVE to give Mommy kisses.

Look at that tummy. See, Mommy's feeding me well.

Maybe I can help Mommy sweep the floor behind all the messes I make for her.

And I can help her clean the fridge.

And certainly I can carry my own weight (toys) around this place.

Aahhh, just another fun weekend at the ranch. This place grows on you.

Multitasking

And they say boys can't multitask. Ha! ... here's proof that it can be done.

Valentine's Day at the Ranch

Daddy knows how to give Mommy the best gifts ... especially the cuddly, feisty, LIVE one pictured below. :) Happy Valentine's Day 2010!

While Daddy was hard at work leveling the field ...
... I was in the kitchen 'helping' Mommy cook.

I was stuck like glue to Mommy ALL day long ... and fussy, fussy, fussy! 'Uuugh,' says Mommy.

And then I tried my darndest to help Mommy mop the floor.


... this is my fifteeneth (or thereabout) attempt to get to that mop water.


Maybe if I walked to it ...


Welp, looks like I'll have to try again another day.

Wooden Spoons

I seem to be drawn to wooden spoons for some crazy reason. Mommy says to ask Uncle Pete about his experience with wooden spoons. Grandma, Mommy thinks you know something about this too?


Grandma? Uncle Pete? ...



... Can someone tell me why Mommy went crazy checking out so many new books from the library? Grandma? Uncle Pete?


Well, I suppose I will find out soon enough. :)

Peaches and Pasta

Peaches and pasta ... hmm, Mommy comes up with some pretty funky combinations in this new learning curve of mine. I've been experimenting with all kinds of new finger foods. Sure like this eating thing ... much better than sleep ... highly overrated.

MY personal goal in all of this is to see how many times per day I can watch Mommy mop the floor. She thinks Uncle Pete has been giving me counsel behind her back! Don't worry ... secret's safe with me!

Batter Up

OK, so Mom is putting pressure on me to follow in the footsteps of Uncle Pete ... and Uncle Scot ... and Grandpa ... and Great Grandpa. Let's see how this thing works ...

... I know you have to hit something with this bat ...

... which makes the ball launch off the tee like this ...

Give me a few more days, Uncle Pete, and I'll have this thing mastered. :)

Superbowl Shuffle ... and Other Weekend Events

Getting healthy with my finger foods!

On our way to church ...


Sweet little church boy.

I now have free reign of the house.
And I love being a truck owner.



Superbowl Shuffle 2010

Fun weekend ... but I sure can get cranky if I don't get my way.

Daddy is sure that I get this from Mommy.
