Happy Birthday, Grandpa J!

Happy Birthday, Grandpa J!

Hope you have a GREAT day!

UWP is the Place to Be!

Mommy, Daddy and I took a little ride today and

ended up visiting their old stomping grounds!

Mom and Dad were excited to show me where the

lived, worked and hung out for so many years!

Mommy couldn't show me exactly where she worked

in college, the Visitors Center has been torn down and

rebuilt since she worked there! We had to settle for a

picture by the sign!

This is the Pioneer Student Center, this is where
my Daddy worked while he went to school!

Mommy and Daddy tried to convince me they

spent time at this library studying!

I don't know about all that...... :)

The nice thing about the UWP campus, is that there

are not any roads that run through it!

Since it was a quiet day on campus, Mommy and

Daddy just let me run around and explore!

The BIG "M"

This is one big letter!

While in Platteville, we went to visit the "M".

This picture might not look impressive....

But look at me and Daddy standing at the bottom!
Mommy wanted a turn!
Daddy took this picture of us while he was
standing across the street!


We didn't get to spend as much time as we would
have liked looking at the M, it was raining!
Next time Mommy said we could climb to the top!

My Date With Bailey

My Mommy and Daddy took me over to my friend

Bailey's house so we could play tonight!

I LOVED HER!

We loved playing in her bedroom! She showed me

how to jump on the bed! Bailey also was good

at sharing, and let me play with all her toys.

The night went too quick. Before you knew it, we

had to say night, night!

I hope my Mom and Dad bring me back real soon!

Race Day!

Today I went to cheer on my Cousin Crystal as she

participated in a duathlon to honor

Cousin Chris' memory.

Auntie Jody and I made signs to cheer on all

of our family and friend that were

running and biking in the cold and rain!

GO, Crystal, GO!

We can't forget Auntie Linda!
She did an AWESOME job, too!

We are very proud of you!
I bet Chris was in Heaven smiling today!

Neighborhood Watch

My new favorite hobby is watching the neighborhood.

I realized that I can drag my chair over to the window

and use it to look outside!

I am very good at letting Mommy

and Daddy know when the neighbors come home,

when they are outside, or if they have visitors!

My Mommy says I am a nosey neighbor....

The Last Days of Summer

Mommy and Daddy had the morning off today, so

we took a wagon ride down to the beach to play.

I really love all my sand toys!
I was trying so hard to fill the bucket up, but I had a tough
time getting the sand from the shovel to the bucket!
I kept dropping all the sand!

After playing in the sand, I wanted to go put my

feet in the water. Mommy said we have to hold hands

if I am going by the water!

I also LOVE throwing rocks in the water

with daddy and making a big splash!

Winery Tour

Since Uncle Steve and Heather are in town, we decided to

take a trip to Wollersheim Winery for a tour and a tasting.

We had so much fun taking the tour, it was my

first official "tour"!

Mommy said I was a very good boy!

I got to see where the grow all the grapes

to make the wine, all from the comfort

of my stroller.

I was very good while we watched the

process of wine making, because I knew

what was coming at the end....

I got to TASTE some wine!

Well, actually grape juice... but it was still yummy!

I had such a great time with my family at the winery!

I hope I can go back again soon!

Stacy and Brett's Big Day!

Yesterday my cousins, Stacy and Brett, got married!

I love going to weddings because I get to see all

my friends and family.

I got to more time to hang out with my Uncle Steve

and Heather. We both had suits on, we were so handsome!
Auntie Katie can't resist me in a suit!

Is it party time yet, Uncle Mark??

I just love dancing! My Mommy and Daddy

didn't realize that I had so many dance moves.

I was a dancing fool!

Congratulations, Stacy and Brett!

Road Rash!

Check out the road rash on the right side of my face!

Actually, its front steps up to the house rash...

I just had to try to go up the stair by myself!

Sometimes my need to be independent gets

the best of me!

Taking Inventory

Since I have been out of town with Grandma and Grandpa

the last few days, I had to take inventory of all my

toys when I got home.

I just had to make sure Mommy and Daddy didn't

move any of them on me!
I also had to make sure other things I play with
that are "technically" not my toys were there and accounted for.
Don't worry, everything was right where I left it!
