Fun with Grandma B and Grandpa Mark!

Mom and Dad went to Kansas City to meet our new cousin Wylie so that meant we got to stay with Grandma B and Grandpa Mark!  We'll get to meet Wylie at Christmas.

 We had some relaxing mornings... complete with doughnuts one day!

And then we got put to work cleaning out the garage!  I guess it was a fair trade...

No doubts anymore about how we end up with bruises all the time!

Here's our cousin Wylie!  We can't wait to meet him!  Hopefully he's still small enough for us to hold him at Christmas!

Lake Trip with Friends!

We took a trip to the lake with our friends Davis and Ollie!  We stayed in their grandparent's house and went out on their parent's new boat!

We spent some time playing inside with cars!

We had a water balloon fight outside!

And of course there was plenty of time for the iPad!

Mom wanted to get one nice picture of the 4 kids.  We didn't make it too easy!

I got a chance to drive the boat with Justin and be silly with Davis! 

Of course we took some boat naps - they are the best! 

When we took a break from the boat, we hung out on the dock!

Emily took us boys out on a kayak ride.  Ollie and I got to just enjoy the ride while Davis had to pull his own weight! 

Clara put up with her life vest pretty well, but she got tired of it after a while!

Here we are enjoying a snack on the boat!  Three silly boys!

Here we were almost exactly 2 years earlier at the same lake!  A little more serious for the camera back then!

Shoes and More Shoes!

I have started to like shoes as much as hats these days!  But not just my own shoes!

When Owen was out of town I got into his closet and found his slippers!

And Mom's closet has lots of fun shoes to try on - heels aren't a problem for me!

Dad's shoes aren't too big for me either!

Grandpa Mark gave me some crocs a while ago and they finally fit me now!  And this is my new "cheese" look.  Mom and Dad aren't too crazy about it...

I also have some of my own dress up shoes!  I've got some room to grow into them...  And my teachers at school showed Mom that my hair is long enough for a ponytail in the back!

Here's me in action in Mom's shoes!

Looking Good!

You could probably say that I've figured out the whole camera thing these days...

I struck a pose for Mom in my dress that Grandma Pam and Grandpa Mike got me!

I always like to sport my Clemson gear!

Owen got his face painted at the school festival and we decided to take some selfies!

I can make a seat out of anything if I need to pose for a picture!

Owen isn't shy about the camera either!

"New" Wheels!

Clara and I have had some new wheels to play with recently!  Technically not really new, but new to us!

This one isn't mine to keep but Landon and Dylan were out of town one weekend and let me borrow their tractor.  I had lots of fun driving it around the backyard!

Grandma B and Grandpa Mark have a tricycle for Clara to play on at their house!

Mom thought that Clara needed some of her own toys so she got some hand me downs from our friend Elle! 

These toys aren't new, but I found a new way to play with all my trucks!

Clara got some wheels at Christmas but it took her a while to get big enough for them!  She's figuring them out now!

Zoo Trip!

Mom took Clara and I to the zoo and we met up with our friends Landon and Dylan.  It was hot but we had a fun time!

Dylan and I posed for a funny picture as meerkats!

Even though all 4 of us were at the zoo, it was impossible to get a picture of us together!  Clara and Dylan just didn't want to be in a picture at the same time! 

We found a giant eagle's nest to take a break in!

We are just tall enough to look for the gorillas by ourselves!

Look who we found at the zoo!  Daniel Tiger!  

 After walking (more like running) around so much, we needed to cool off! So we put on our swim suits for some fun at the splash pad!  Clara wasn't too sure about the fountains, but Landon and I showed her how they work and she loved them!

 Any doubt she had a fun time at the splash pad?
