Fun with Cousin Andie

While visiting in Minnesota, I've had some great playtime with my cousin Andie. She is nearly two-years-old and always busy. Wise to the ways of the world, I am sure to learn much from my big cuz.

We are wearing the same shorts :-)

Andie and her mommy, Aunt Kellie, took us to their neighborhood pool. Splish, splash!

Visiting Glamma & Doc in Minnesota

I took my first plane ride ever --two in fact-- so that I could get to Glamma and Doc's home. They live in Rochester, Minnesota. Their town has a big special hospital where sick people can go to get help to get better. I'm staying healthy, though, so that I can plan with Glamma and Doc everyday.

I flew with Mommy from Portland, OR to Denver, CO. Then Mommy and I played at the airport for a long time until our next plane was ready. Finally, we flew from Denver to Minneapolis, MN where we met Grandpa Doc. He had a big smile and hug for us! We drove to Doc's home where we found Glamma bursting with joy and serving up a yummy meal. (I'm still sticking with Mommy's milk mostly.)

Glamma and Doc have been showing us the sights of Rochester and the comforts of their home. Doc carries me all over the yard showing me everything he and Glamma have planted. They even have a little garden bench sitting between two faries for me and my cousin Andie. On warm afternoons, I sit in the little pool and splash to my heart's content! (Bath times are fun too. More about that later!)

My first dip in the pool

Here is me with Mommy and my good friend Noah Buchanan. Noah and his mommy took me to the pool. Noah is a good swimmer. I sat on the edge with Mommy and splashed my feet. Oooo, wet and cool! So fun on a hot day.

Berry Picking

Here's me and Daddy sittin' in Olson's strawberry patch. Those red berries sure look yummy! Maybe next year I can sneak one into my tummy.
