Lunchin' with Uncle Tommy

Today we met up with Uncle Tommy for lunch. He's funny. I like him.

Pool Party and Pizza!

As per usual, the parents had another fun-filled day planned! Daddy was doing work outside this morning so I got hang out with him on the deck. And we found some froggies! Here I am checking one out!

After playing outside for while it was nap time and when I woke up there were 12 friends at my house. Yes, 12 friends and that doesn't include the mommies!!! I guess my mommy invited them all over for a book party/playdate! So we set up some pools and my water table and craziness ensued.

To be quite honest, I was kind of grumpy when all those people were at my house playing with my stuff. But as the afternoon quieted down, I enjoyed a cool beverage with Wiley.

And then I really had some fun times splashing in the pool all by myself!

I took another LONG nap and then I got to have my first slice of pizza for dinner! YUMMY! I could really get used to this whole summer thing.

Naked at Nanny's!

We had dinner at Nanny's tonight with the whole family. Nanny gave me cookies for dessert, so Mommy decided that I was messy and needed a bath. But Nanny doesn't have a tub so I got to take a bath in the kitchen!

Isn't that sooo silly? I had the best time.

And while Nanny, Auntie Maggie, Auntie Marleen, and Mommy chatted it up, I just stayed in the bath...see me in the back? I think I need to take more baths in some new places! Baths truly are my most favorite thing ever!

The Showdown with Tiger

I visited with my neighbors Stacy and Joe today. They have a cat named Tiger. We had a stare down.

I won.

Sweet nothings...and snacks...

Yeah...Sawyer's got game...

but really all I wanted was his snack! :-)

Swimming, Sand, and Swinging

Today was another fun day at Lake George! We hit the beach and I played in the sand with Sawyer...

and went swimming with Mommy.

Then Sawyer gave me some wet kisses!

Who says girls can't play with trucks?!!

And I high fived Daddy from the swing! What a fun day full of my favorite things! (Well, in the spirit of full disclosure, swinging is not one of my favorites...but I'm working on it!)

Off to New York!

My parents are always taking me on crazy trips! Today we headed off to Lake George to visit my friend Sawyer and his parents at their lake house. Sawyer is 10 months older than me so he tells me lots of big kid stuff.

We went out for dinner at a nice Italian place and I insisted on being Miss Independent again. I can hold my own cup (even though the cover is not kid friendly and it spills a lot), thank you very much!

Then Daddy chased me around the park for awhile and I laughed tons and tons.

The best part of the day came at night though. Just when I thought it was bed time, Mommy and Daddy let me push my stroller around this parking lot with a big screen.

And guess what? When it got dark out, I got in my pj's and watched my first movie (Wall-E)from the back of our car!!! It was really cool and I got to snuggle with all my monkeys in the bed Mommy made for me in the way back. Except Mommy kept bothering me with all her picture taking. "Mommy, put that away and watch the movie, silly!"

Naughty in Natick

Today Daddy took me to the Natick Collection (that's what the call the fancy new wing of the Natick Mall). I did a lot of browsing and a lot pushing my face up against the glass.

"I'll be here all week!"

For now, I'll sit and be a cute, good girl. :-)

Meetin' Up with Mason - Part Three

When it was time to say goodbye Mommy and Auntie Heidi insisted that the cousins pose for some pictures. We decided to make a photo shoot out of it. (Ignore me giving Mason a wet willy!) Enjoy!

Meetin' Up with Mason! - Part Two

Mason won a doggie and shared it with me as we strolled along the beach sidewalk.

And I got a shoulder ride from Auntie Heidi!

Next we went to the playground and I tried lots of new things including a mini little slide...

and the swing again! I still didn't love it, but I stayed on for a few minutes...which is much longer than the last few times!

And then Uncle Scott helped me traverse the sand...it's hard work with such little legs!

Meetin' up with Mason! - Part One

Today Daddy picked me up at Nanny's and I fell asleep in the car. When I woke up, Mommy was there and were we at the beach! Auntie Heidi, Uncle Richard, and Cousin Mason were staying there so we went up to visit. Uncle Scott showed up, too! We met up at the playground and Mason and I were making silly faces at each other right off the bat! I knew today was going to be fun, fun, fun! We started our adventure at the boardwalk and hit the arcade! It was my first time, but I took to it like a pro! My first ride was Dino from the Flintstones. I have no idea who Dino is but it was fun sitting on him!

I also tried driving a car. It didn't work very well. Mommy says it's because I don't have my driver's license. I think it's because she didn't put the quarters in the machine!

My most favorite ride was the merry-go-round. There are lots of horses and they went in circles over and over again!
My other favorite part about meeting up with Aunties and Uncles is all the extra love and attention I get!

Totally Thomas

Do I look ready for the beach or what???

Today I spent all day with Thomas. We had fun playing with his water table and his kiddie pool. It was really hot out. It's kind of been really hot out all summer. (I think Daddy might finally cave and central a/c!)

Then, he showed me how to eat pudding!!! I think I did a good job! Don't you? Yum!

But, mostly, Thomas chased me around all day hugging me and when he was done with the love, he would pull my hair. A lot. And I did not like it. But I still love him. Maybe he is jealous that I have so much hair and he does not.

Beach and Books!

Happy 4th of July (and Happy Birthday, Auntie Becky!). We went to the beach near the Maine house and I played in the sand AND the water. Big day for me.

"Fiona, do you see those duckies over there!"

We ate a lot of great food today thanks to Grandma and Grandpa LaCamera. And then I showed Auntie Carolyn all the secret flaps in my book while she read to me. I love Maine! I get lots of extra attention! :-)

The Royalty of Damariscotta

I met up with King Brandon (Auntie Carolyn's nephew) this morning. We ruled over all the toys from our beach thrones.

Then Princess Fiona (Auntie Carolyn's niece) and I had some fabulous conversation over lunch.

I ended the day exploring the countryside with father. We used high-tech gadgets.

Eventually we found the treasure.

And posed for a photograph to document the good times.
