slip n' slidin'
i wasn't so quick to run and dive onto my belly on this thing... so the next thought was to use my float like a sled. first trip didn't go so well as i ended up flipping off backwards... but once i held on tight while on my belly we were in business!

you can't rain on my parade (or train ride)
we met up with my friend billy today for a train ride! it rained. it poured, but that didn't bother me... we had a great ride, then billy came back to my house and we got to play there. so much fun.

chiquita dress
auntie allie got me this kick-@$$ dress from mexico! i am the most worldly little kid, uncle greggie has snagged me all sorts of goodies from india, and uncle chris brings cool things from a land he calls "brooklyn".

gimmee the keys daddy! gimmee the keys!
love driving my car. Poppy set up cones at the end of his driveway so i wouldn't go past them. b-o-r-i-n-g... screw that, i changed that up and i used them as obstacles to drive around... in a figure-eight...

more freakin' gardening
ok, so at what point do child labor laws come into play here with this gardening? i get it, all cute, i love flowers mommy loves flowers, but really, mom has me out here in the dirt every day... this is like daddy telling me i need to watch the red sox on tv... can a girl just play with her toys please?

mother's day
breakfast in bed! daddy and i got up and made mommy some breakfast to eat in bed! and when we got upstairs, i got to eat with her... and i probably ate more than her.

entertaining
this morning, my friend erin is coming over. so mommy and i are making blueberry muffins, and i am setting my little table so erin and i can have our own special breakfast. i did this all myself, i learned from mommy but she barely helped me, i did it all by myself.

gardening at night
not really at night, daddy just came up with that title because he likes R.E.M. but mommy just likes gardening, and so do i :-)

daddy's race
daddy seems to like running. and he likes to run with people a lot. i like this race because it's on a lake and mommy likes it because instead of trophies they give daddy champagne for a prize...

look at me! look at me!
so long story short, apparently mom and dad met at some track meet. apparently uncle timmy's track meet we went to on saturday was THAT meet. apparently without that track meet there wouldn't be me... so uncle timmy, thank you for your track meet :-)
