Good news, I spent two whole hours with Cousin Zoe today and she didn't beat me up once! It was a pretty fun visit except I was being shy. We played in the sand and swung on the swing, which I totally love. Swinging relaxes me, Mommy should get herself a swing...she could use some relaxing.

Tonight we went to Red Robin for dinner and I had the best time! I played with my balloon and kept smacking Mommy in the face with it. I ate a ton of fries and drank a bunch of Sprite. I especially enjoyed reading the drink menu, it was very colorful. I talked the whole time cause I was so excited to be out to dinner with Mommy and Daddy. I didn't fuss once!

My eye looks much better today! That Benedryl really makes me sleepy, it's super yummy though!

Today Mommy put my yogurt in a bowl and handed me a spoon, that was interesting. I got a few bites in my mouth, but I sure made a mess. Then she gave me one of those new Lunchables Jrs. It was a plastic container with three sections. There were crackers, cheese, and turkey (all little of course). At first I ate almost all the crackers. Then it became a sorting excercise. Then to Mommy's amazement I actually ate most of the cheese and turkey! Now we just have to convince Peapod to carry them. It was a good lunch.

Hey, you should see the other guy!

No, he didn't get in a fight with Quinn. We think it must be a bug bite or something. Hopefully Benedryl will do the trick.

I ate a half of a grilled cheese sandwich today! I never do that! Quinn didn't want it so I wolfed it down. Weird. We will see if I will eat one tommorow. I am funny like that.

Yesterday Grandma Donna, Grandpop Bill, Uncle Ian, and Aunt Sarah came over. I really loved all the attention. Uncle Ian held me a bunch and Grandpop Bill tickled me!

I can't wait until Quinn is feeling better, I want him to go back to school!! I miss my Mommy time. I cry everytime I see her cuddling with Quinn (which is a lot when he is sick).

I had quite a morning today! Me and Mommy took Grandma Berta to Target to get her medicine and it was pretty fun. I liked sitting in the cart and I was better behaved than usual. While Mommy was looking at sweatshirts for me and Quinn (it is getting cold outside), I picked out my Halloween costume. I pulled it right off the rack, but Mommy says I am too big for it, so I guess I will just be whatever. I just hope I get to eat candy this year!

After shopping we went to the playground behind the Target. It is the one with the bouncy rubber ground and I really don't like walking on that stuff. I did better than last time at least. I was really shy and hung back from the other kids, but I enjoyed watching them. Mommy says next time she is going to bring Quinn with us so he can show me how a playground is done!

Tonight Grandma Donna came over and it was really nice seeing her. She is really good at reading me books and she even gave me a bath!! I love baths....now.

It has been a while since Mommy has posted an update, so here is what is new with me!

* I love to run in circles through the living room, dining room, and kitchen! I do it all day long and Mommy says I am gonna run track when I get older.

* My new favorite thing is to insist that people read books to me. I go up to Mommy, grab her hand, make sure it is open, and then put my book in it. She gets the message. My absolute favorite books are my french books that Uncle Scott bought me in Paris. Of course, Mommy doesn't actually "read" those to me.

* I signed "more" for the first time the other night, I really wanted another graham cracker.

That is all Mommy can think of for now, but she is gonna try and update more often!

I went to the state fair for the first time ever today! I hope it isn't my last time cause I really liked it! Mommy tried to show me all the animals, but I was much more interested in watching all the people and rides. I loved my balloon so much, but it came off the string and floated away :( A nice girl sitting next to me gave me her's though, wasn't that nice? I didn't take my eye off that balloon the rest of the night, I was so worried it would float away too.

We got ice cream and Mommy shared her Strawberry Cheesecake flavor with me. Daddy tried to give me some of his Mint Chip, but it wasn't nearly as good as Mommy's so I didn't ask for anymore of his. Mommy's was sooooo good!

I had a really fun night and was a good boy the whole time! What a great start to the weekend!
