This was the best afternoon! When Daddy came home, Mom & I went outside to play, just the two of us -- I love that! It was such a nice, sunny day. Plus, I had on my favorite camo shorts, super fast new tennis shoes, and and the cool bubble gun Mom got for me. I can make tons of bubbles with this...much better than the traditional wands. Ain't life grand?!?
Today Mom and I went to the park to see her old friend (Mom's note: Not that we're old, just known each other for 30 years!), Jenny, and her daughter, Kaia. Kaia is 4 and lots of fun. We went on the slide, swings, eagle's nest, and other various playground equipment...all while our mothers talked and watched us with happy smiles.
Usually Mom brings tulips for Memorial Day, but they weren't quite open this year. We decided to bring some lilacs instead. Mom carried some, and I had one of my own. At first I was very upset when I noticed Mom set hers down. I held mine for all of the service. 
At the end I thought it would be okay to leave my flowers too.
Here we are, baby sister (under the blanket) and big sister, out for a walk on a nice spring day. It was a bit cool, but who cares...we were outside?!? Delaney didn't stay out long because she needed to eat. 
Daddy & I stayed out for a long time. I played with my flowers (Mom picked them for me during our walk), dug in the sand, found my Dora/Diego chairs, and just had fun out there. If only every day could be like that one. Well, my sister needs to get a little bigger so she can play with me, and would be nice if Mom was with us too... otherwise it was a perfect day!
It's no secret I love Dumbo. Now Mom & Daddy let me ride this Dumbo whenever I behave while we're running errands.
As hard as it is to stay in the cart and not pull things off shelves, I really want to ride Dumbo, so I do my best. Sitting on Dumbo's back yelling, "Fly, Baby Dumbo, fly!" is so worth it. Mom & Daddy are pleased with it too. They just have to make sure they keep two quarters with them so I can get my ride.
To Mom, my grandmas, great-Gommie, and all the mothers in my life... Happy Mother's Day!I just love singing "The Name Song" (in my own variations...sometimes "Bo Baddie Mommy"or "Bee Bop Shadow") and using everything I see. Once I made Mom sing it using shower, window, towel, potty (guess where I was sitting that day!). On Easter, I sang it at the table using the names of all the people around me. Aunt Dan got a little of it on video; you can see by Auntie Sherry's face I had been singing for a while...
Aunt Dan has been using Boppa's four-wheeler for the last few days, and every time he comes and goes from Grandma and Boppa's house, I love to imitate the sounds of the big machine. Yesterday, I finally got to ride on it. It was lots of fun, but I couldn't be bothered to look at the camera since there were some gadgets in front of me.
