Fun at the Farmer's Market

Today when we got up, we got ready and went downtown to the Farmer's Market. We went to a place for breakfast, and they had a piano we could play!

After breakfast, we went to explore. We had so much fun playing with the bubbles. It was so cool to watch them and chase them.

We each got turns to make bubbles!

Bubble clouds!

 We also went to story time where someone read us a book she colored and wrote. It was in Italian!

We ended our time by getting special balloons! I got a sword and Damien got an elephant. Damien broke his before we got to the car.

I'm a gymnast!

I got to test out gymnastics and I LOVE it! On Mondays and Wednesdays I got to go to the YMCA for class.

Doing stretches my first class.

Help on the beam.

and the best part is jumping off the beam!

crab walks!

I really like gymnastics and want to keep doing it, so Mommy and Daddy are signing me up for a class!

Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

Happy birthday to the bestest Daddy! We are so lucky to have someone who loves us so much and takes care of us so well. We love you so much!!!

July birthdays

In July Daddy has a birthday, Aunt Katie has a birthday, and Pop Pop has a birthday! We tried to go on a family trip to the zoo. Joseph didn't feel good though-he had hives and had to stay home.

Emma and I hung out a lot.

We had lots of fun going down this slide over and over.

Cousins on the hill!

Waiting for the train!

Choo choo!!!

And I'm out!

Happy Birthday America!

We got to be in a parade!!! We all decorated our bikes and wagons and cars and helmets, and then we followed a fire truck in the neighborhood by Grandma Sue and Pop Pop's!

We even saw our friend Jack at the end!

The end of the parade was also fun because we got to have snow cones!

Happy Birthday America!!!

Mommy and Joseph time

Mommy told me that we were going to go hang out, just the two of us. She had been asking if my shoes felt too small, but I kept telling her they didn't hurt my feet. She took me to a place where they could measure my feet. They told me I should wear size 11.5 or 12. Mommy said all my shoes at home were 9 or 10! Then Mommy took me to Old Navy and looked at lots of different shoes. I picked out 3 new pairs! 

Then I thought it would be fun to take my picture with Thomas Jefferson!

And Abraham Lincoln!

Then I got to climb to the top of a hill!

It was fun to hang out just Mommy and I. And I like that I have shoes that fit my feet better so my toes can wiggle!

I like to help Damien learn how to use the potty like a big boy like me!
