Pittsburg zoo

We went to the zoo today. I asked if we could see the digger trucks. Apparently they are not at every zoo.
But I saw lots of other animals today.
I measured my size compared to the baby elephant, saw hyenas ( which we spotted prairie dogs) and cool fish
Gavin got very excited to see the fish so close up..

Rochester River Challenge 2011

I got to watch the boat race (technically its a canoe) today at the park. It was an exciting drive there because SMH has a crane working on a building. And there was a cool bridge that we got to go under.
I got to see a spider web, which was great, until I couldn't find it. Mr. Alex said someone might have bumped into it. Mom and I go tto run around, and I had a brown donut ( chocolate covered).

I played race with Ms. Brooke around the construction cones. And she and I got to dance around.

When it was time to leave I told mom I was mad, I didn't want to go. I asked if I could play with those girls again!


Gavin and I were a big sleepy when we got home.

Ethan s letter of the week

The letter A.
My word for the week was airplane (and school buses- mostly because I like school buses ).
Each morning Ms.Valerie goes over our letter in 'sign' and everyone has a word to remember.
Our other words were : ant, arm , ankle ( but if you ask me I say foot first), apple and armadillo.
We each got an apple to take home.I ate it on the way home, but I did share a bite with mom.

Gavins book of the week

That's not my....

And the little brother invades

I decided that I need to hone in on Ethan's blog. There needs to be more about both of us.
Today Ethan came home from swim and heard me crying. He came up the stairs to find me , yelling "I'm coming Gavin."

popsicles

Popsicle, its what should be for dinner.

LBI with my cousins

I am having a nice time on vacation. I liked playing with Nick and Chloie. I miss them.
Gavinator came down to the beach for a little while too.





I kept getting told not to walk near him. There seem to be alot of rules for vacation... Close the door, wash your hands, don't get sand on the baby. If I cant get sand on him, why is he at the beach?

My first real house project

I got to work with dad today!! I had to put on my work clothes and shoes before we could start. We are preping boards for the garage. I am going to help paint them before the painters do.




It is very serious work and I have to concentrate on holding the brush the right way.


Sometimes you have to step back and check your work.

pancaking

I have decided to take up "pancaking" on the weekends. I use my own eggs and my Mater flipper.

Concert for Gavin

I got out my instruments for Gavin today. I played the piano for him

Easter 2011

I got up this morning and found an Easter basket on the table. It had a Pooh straw and some bunny ears. But best of all EGGS,with JELLY BEANS! They may be even better than getting Donald the engine.


I love jelly beans, they're my favorite. Mom let me have some before breakfast.

After breafast I got ready for church and to take Easter pictures with Mom and Dad. I didnt really want to take pictures and this is the only one I really cooperated for.

Night out

We walked to dinner tonight.
I got a hot dog and fries.I picked carrot cake for desser, but ate Moms chocolate cake instead.

Then we walked to the playground. Dad and I got to climb around and slide.I told Dad which slide to go down.



When I climbed to the top of the playground I told Mom I was king of the giants.
