Camping At Cresent Lake

Way back in July, we went camping at Cresent Lake. We went with Grandpa & Grandma Nelson and Auntie Meg, Cousin Luke & Dylan. We stayed 3 nights. I didn't like sleeping in the tent trailer and woke up every night at 1am screaming for what seemed like forever. I'm sure the other people in the camp really appreciated me! Pappa took his boat and I got to go fishing for the first time and help Pappa drive the boat!Captain Brady

Frisbee Golf

Some friends came and visited us from Salt Lake and introduced us to frisbee golf! We went and played at the course by the Sisters High School and had a blast! I even scored some points! Who needs a golf cart?

Score!

Wickiup

Back in July we took a day trip to Wickiup with Grandpa and Grandma. We met up with some friends from Cottage Grove that were camping there. I got to play with their son Maylon who is a little older than me. We had so much fun!

Zoo Time!!

Mommy took me to the zoo for the first time!! We went and stayed with my cousins Luke & Dylan in Gresham for a few nights and had a blast! Mommy even bought a year membership so we can go everytime we visit family! Me and Mommy playing at the zoo!

I'm not conviced that T-Rex isn't real. I kept an eye on it at all times!

I kept an eye on Triceretops also!

And I know for sure that Elephant was real, he blew his trunk and it scared me!

Summer Time Fun!! Mom has missed the last couple months, so here's some pics to get you semi-caught up! More to come!!

Fun with Grandma at the park!

Hold on guys, I'm a professional!!

Wow, that's cold!

You can't tell by this shot, but it's 7pm and FREEZING outside! Never to cold for water fun though! Good thing we had a fire to warm up by!

I LOVE helping Mom cook!! I try to sneak a bite when I can!

4th of July Weekend!

We had a blast this 4th of July! We went to the downtown Redmond Parade again this year, but I was old enough to enjoy it this time!!Sacked from all the 4th of July activities!!

We went with Grandma & Grandpa Nelson, Grandpa & Grandma Hadfield, The Nickells, The Moores and The Meyers! What a crew!

Best Buddies: Me, Wyatt & Jackson

So patriotic!

This is a shot from the parade. If you watch closely, you can see what I do for my horsey - shake my head up and down. It's pretty cute!!

17 Months Already!!

Boy, does time fly! I'm keeping Mommy & Daddy so busy! I do circles around them all day long! I'm 17 months now, almost 1.5 years old! My newest things are to walk down the stairs without any help, and to count to 3 and "jump" down one stair into the living room. I'm talking a mile a minute and can say two words together now. I just learned how to say "Help, Please" and I can say "Bye, Bye, Daddy." I try to get my way with everything by putting a "please" in front of it. Mommy isn't letting me get away with that one though!

The last month has been a little rough with the illnesses. First, I got Hand, Foot & Mouth disease. Then I got strep throat, followed by this really nasty rash that actually was a delayed reaction to the amoxicillin I was on! It's just one thing after another! I'm definitely enjoying the summer weather now though!

Mommy's trying to compile a list of the words I say besides the basics:

Car, tractor, cracker, sock, shoe, hot, night night, Pappa, nice, uh-oh, oh-no, oh-man, oh-my, hi, bye bye, cat, kitty, dog, doggie, one, two, three, Joe, Spice, helicopter, help & please. . .

I'm such a big boy now!!

Still a ham!

My nasty Amoxicillin rash, it was a lot worse than this picture looks!
