Oh my goodness.  We have been so busy!  So much has happened since the last time I posted.  Lets see...

My cousin Kassidy turned 11 on the 11th!  She had a birthday party (on the 3rd) and we got to decorate cookies!  I only decorated 2 small ones, but it was fun.

On August 7th we went to Purina Farms.  Mommy said she didn't know they had such a nice facility and stuff to do.  I got to see pretend dog and cat food be made, pet baby pigs, chickens, dogs, cats and horses!  One of the horses was huge!!  He really liked my mommy.  She pet him a whole bunch.  I wish we had a horse...so does mommy.  But we know it's not possible because it's really expensive and they're a lot of work.  While we were at Purina Farms we ran into my friends Grace, Grant, Olivia, Reid and Anja!  It was so nice to see them.  My mommy goes to their house on Saturdays.  It was kind of funny that we ran into them there because we couldn't tell Anja we would see them that night.  It was a secret, but Mr. Rick and Mrs. Lisa (the mommy and daddy) were throwing Anja a going away party.  On Aug. 15th she went back home to Germany.  We really miss her.

Mommy and Daddy took me to a place called My Gym.  It's a really neat place!  They have all kinds of fun stuff for me to do.  I can run around, jump in the ball pit, jump on the trampoline, climb up this climber thingie and slide down a slide!!  They were having an open house so it was all free.  Oh and I GOT TO MEET ELMO!!!  It was so much fun!  He was so nice and I didn't even scream.  Mommy is going to take me back there tomorrow for a free trial class to see how I do in a more structured setting.  If I like it I may start taking classes.

This past Monday Peyton and Brock started coming over to play every day.  It's taking a little adjusting, but I like taking turns and sharing my toys.  Mommy says next Monday we'll start going for walks after breakfast.  But she'll have to figure something out because now there is 3 of us and we don't have a triple stroller, only a double.  Maybe mommy can get a sling or something for Brock.  We'll see.  Towards the end of our walks we stop at a park.  I love the park and I'm doing more and more on the play set every day.

On Sunday (the 17th) Mommy and I went to take pictures in a field near 109 and Old State.  It was fun at first, but then I started getting cranky.  Mommy got some good pictures though.  I'm sure my Daddy will put some on here for you to see.
