it's raining it's pouring

daddy and i were playing outside and it started to rain a little. i wanted to play in my house a bit longer, though, so we figured a few drops couldn't hurt. then suddenly it started pouring, so daddy took cover with me.

happy daddy's day!

over the weekend, i got to celebrate daddy's day with mommy and some friends. on saturday, i went to my second swim lesson, but this time with daddy in the water. then we went to chatfield state park, had a picnic, and played in the water with some friends. on sunday, i made daddy a sign at sunday school and gave it to him when we got home. happy daddy's day daddy, i love you!

my visit to tiny town - the train ride

today i went to tiny town with mommy, daddy, gampa and grammie. the weather was beautiful and there was so much to see and do. one of my favorite activities was the tiny town railroad. i'll have more fun pics of gampa and grammie's visit soon.

i don't usually like hats, but i didn't take this one off all day

my very own train conductor hat

getting ready for a fun train ride

in a few years, i'll be able to ride in the caboose

enjoying the sights with daddy

i wasn't happy about having to get off the train

the train conductor noticed how upset i was so i got a special treat

the conductor even let me sound the train horn

it wasn't easy to see the train go by without me on it

but gampa and grammie took me on a second ride

my second train ride...thanks gampa and grammie!

my weekend with daddy

while mommy was in tennessee visiting lula and my cousins, daddy and i got to spend five days together. daddy tried to make sure we did something outside of the house each day. on our last full day together before mommy came home, we went to the denver zoo. daddy thought it was hilarious that so many mommy's with strollers were there. daddy's with strollers were definitely not in abundance on our trip to the zoo. thanks for taking such good care of me daddy and for making it so fun. here are a few pics from my adventurous day at the zoo.

the bears were huge!

i was so interested in the gorilla next to the window

i seemed to be pointing at everything

this thing was monkeying around. so funny!

hmm, reminds me of mommy's favorite snack...cheetos!

i did get to spend some time at a play area

playing ball with daddy

after daddy got off work today, we went outside to throw the ball around. i had a lot of fun kicking, throwing and chasing the ball around the yard.

observe my nice throwing motion

daddy, this would be easier if you actually throw it to me

a quick break to tell daddy there was a plane flying above

what a fun day in the yard

finishing off with some water fun
