The Past 6 Months...

 Wow, my mom gets the award for waiting way too long to update this with me!  So, here ya go...6 months condensed to a few favorite pictures.  If you're a Facebook-er, please head over there for a bunch more pictures on my mom's page!

 I turned FOUR and loved every minute of my parties.  In the fall, Sully and I enjoyed all the pumpkin festivities.

 Boy, Halloween was SO fun...and I think we're still eating the candy!

 Sully turned TWO!  Here are a few favorites from mom's photoshoot.

 We got our family pictures done...twice:)

 Christmas time was more than fun...making cinnamon rolls from scratch with Dad and waking up to see exactly what I asked for from Santa.

Happy New Year!!  We got to make a ton of noise late at night and eat cookies and "spicy" apple juice.

 We actually like to do photoshoots with mom...so here are a few from January!

There ya go, you're up to date!  Mom will try much harder to keep it up this year!!

Summer Lovin'

I'm a big boy now...my first swim lessons!  No fear here.

 We're having a ton of fun in the water this summer...this is the awesome splash park Dad found nearby.

 We went to St. Louis earlier this summer.  We loved the carousel at the zoo and the train that goes around the entire zoo.  The best part was the hotel pool, but Mom didn't have enough hands to take a picture of that!

 My buddy, Ryker, and his family came to visit...SO much fun!  We had donuts for breakfast and played in the river a bit before heading to the splash park.  And trust me, it was a true sleepover, staying up very late giggling every night.

 We even went to Bass Pro shop to see these enormous fish!

 Here is my adorable brother on his wheels...and then enjoying some Daddy time at sunset.  This is by far one of my parents' favorite pictures!

 We had a blast when Grammy and Papa came to visit!  We took them to our favorite parks and even our favorite ice cream place!

 Peoria has this cool place called "Safety Town" where you can ride your bike around on streets, complete with signs and stoplights.  We obviously don't follow the rules very well.

 Ahh, time for a new bed for Sully...which also means a new mattress for me!  This is my kind of shopping.

 How do I look?  I absolutely loved having my face painted one morning.  It doesn't even look like me, does it?

 When we traveled back to Indy one time, we went to see Mimi...she is super cool, and even has a pretty nice playroom!

 Mom absolutely loves this picture.  One of her new photog friends in Peoria snapped it for her!

 This is a picture of me before my big VBS debut.  So proud of my shirt and necklace!

And did I mention we are enjoying all the water stuff to do around here?  Yep.  Can't get enough of it.

Summer's Here

 My apologizes friends and family...we've been so busy playing, I totally forgot to post in May!  These pictures are from our adventures at a state park over Memorial Day weekend.  I LOVE to take pictures, just like Mommy!

 Dad packed a picnic one day when Mom was taking pictures at a wedding.  We went hiking on a trail then got to eat everything in the cooler....best part.

 Sully is hilarious.  If Mom would let him, he would eat 24/7 and try to be like me all the times in between.

 Of course, I can be pretty funny myself!  Oh how much fun we had at Kim and Eric's wedding (my mom's cousins).  Sully and I especially liked the open bar...unlimited cherries!

 I had a fabulous teacher this year at preschool.  See...we love to laugh!  My class is pictured above.  I love all my new buddies here in Peoria.

 Sully and I love all our new time with Daddy, including time in our "library."  And we're doing funny stuff everyday...we keep Mom hopping with that camera!

Let the good times roll...

So, my brother is a genius.  He wanted to brush his teeth...so he just helped himself one day.  The water was on and everything!  I've taught him well.

 We love helping Dad with cinnamon rolls on Saturday morning...they were *almost* all ready when Mom came home!

 This is my grass head that I grew at school.  My teacher said I could cut his hair when I got home.  Loved it!

 My new super-fun friend, Molly, had her 4th birthday...and we celebrated!  I helped decorate and make the cake.  I used the entire can of sprinkles!

 My usual, a brisk run in the morning...and afternoon...and evening...

 Not sure if you can detect my excitement or not, but WOW I loved my first bus ride! 

 So Sully and I were helping Grammy go shopping, and we kept trying to get her to accessorize.  See how I chose just the right watches to bring out Sully's eyes?

 A bit of sandcastle creating with Grammy and Papa during Easter break.

 Check out our studliness...oh yeah. 

Mom had to throw in a cute one of Sully ready to eat a burger.

And...Mom and Dad actually went out on a date when we were visiting Indy.  The canal walk.  And I got to watch a movie WITH popcorn while they were gone.  Oh please, go out more!
