center grove orchard...
This past weekend we went to the apple orchard. We couldn't
have picked a better day to go as far as the weather goes.
I'm thinking next year you will be big enough to reach the peddles.
That's probably the reason the sign says for ages 4 and up. You are
still just a little short for them.
After the tractors we went over to see the animals. The goats were a bit
close to you and scared you...lots of tears.
You had NO interest in feeding them so dad had to.

henry doorly zoo 2011...
We started off near the giraffe's where you were a little unsure.
doorly zoo in Omaha. Grandma and grandpa g met up with us Friday
morning. The weather was beautiful and we were arrived when the
gates opened so we avoided the crowds.
zoo is enormous! Beckham had a great time, but it did take about a
half hour to warm up to the animals.
nervous.
Of course we had to feed the "fishees" at the zoo.
was ok. We were able to watch them have breakfast...eating anything in
site...grass, leaves, tree bark, etc.
food down to the fish. These fish looked like they were fed well as
they are HUGE!
You love water and any waterfalls we encounter.

state fair 2011
The weather was perfect the week of the state fair. Usually its 100
degrees and higher the 10 days of the fair. We enjoyed a beautiful
Saturday evening spending time with the animals and admiring all
of the "ka kas" (tractors).

enjoying our summer days...
used to be able to just walk down the park, but now that we are in the
rental the Burley has come in handy. When we first bought the Burley
this spring i thought to myself...this will probably just sit in the garage
and collect dust much like my bike has the last several years.
I have proven myself wrong...we love our Burley bike rides!
and beg
to go on "bike rides and go sweening"
but is well worth it. The problem is you nEvEr want to get off the
swing. You could swing for hours. It usually takes a little bribing
to get you off!
of tracks set up in our living room. This morning you were admiring
the catalog and picking out which track you want next. Tidmouth
shed is next on your list...you told me about it all morning. At one
point you went and got your shoes on thinking we were just going
to run out and buy it...silly boy.
Adriana.
She always told daddy every time he picked you up about how good of a
boy you were and how much she enjoyed taking care of you. She told
us that you and Harper are good friends and spend a lot of time playing
together. She said you nap next to each other and you always wake up before
her and just stare at her until she wakes. When we ask you about her at
home the only thing you say is, "harpa gone home". Harper does go home
before you and you must say that everyday at school...how cute!
It appears by your bedhead that this was taken after your nap.
We will miss Adriana!
Well its state fair time here in Iowa so we are hoping to head to
the fair in the coming days. Hopefully we will get some good
pictures to post!

birthday party, duckies, and fishies...
degree heat index and most of the party was outside and involved
water...thankfully. You loved playing with all of the kids, but chickened
out on the water slide. You had more fun watching the other kids do it.

Puzzles, trains, and moving...
We moved last weekend into our rental home. A big thanks to our
parents for all the help! We are living a simple life here at the rental.
Nothing on the walls and most of our belongings remain in boxes in
the garage. Our day and nights now consist of puzzles, swimming,
play-doh, thomas, and drives out to the house to see the progress.
have walls on the main floor! It was fun to visualize where everything
will be. Beckham loves seeing all the tractors! We have driven out
so many times that every time we turn the car around to come
home he says, "all done".
Lets just say I can't wait to have a "playroom" for all of these toys!
house, which made for an easy transition. Beckham adjusted well
to the new house and still remains in his crib until he discovers how
to get out if it.
