Georgie Porgie, Puddin' & Pie

Dido dropped by for dinner on Friday, September 14th.  The best part besides him joining us was the yummy plum I got to eat afterwards.  Outside.




























On Saturday, mom's friend Michelle dropped by for a visit. 




We spent a lot of time outside the rest of the day.  First we made a quick visit to the park and afterwards was the neighborhood block party.  Maybe you can't tell, but my photo snapping skills are getting much better.














Hopes were high that I'd spy a firetruck, but they must have had another committment. The mobile zoo did make a showing as well as the bounce house. I even got my first try at cotton candy. I don't know what all the hype is about...I'd take a popsicle over cotton candy any day.

















Sunday we headed to church before visiting BobBob and Ta.  I helped Ta Garden, we saw Mr. Bunny who lives under the deck, and I even shared my love of popsicle's with Paige:























Last week flew by. Mom got to visit Miss Mae (without me) and as you can tell from the pics she is super cute.



I've started sitting in a big girl seat at dinner.











 
On Saturday, September 15th I stopped by to check out Amelia's new place.  She had a b-day party a few weeks back, but I had to miss it.  Her baby sis' new rug is super soft. 














I really wanted to stay longer but we were heading to see BobBob Ta again.  And the doggies were waiting for us in the car.  The highlight of the afternoon had to be dropping by BobBob's grade school reunion.  The invite list was anyone who went to school there ever, mostly because there were only 6 kids in his grade.  I think the turnout was about 70 people, so a pretty good showing.  Now I know where I get my good looks from.  BobBob...er should I say Bobby, looked to be quite the charmer back in the day!

























The Tigers played ball on Satruday so that night we headed to dad's friends house.  I got to see Emmerson who is a couple months older and seemingly a couple feet taller.  Am I that short?



You might think this was taken before I went to bed, but I was so tired this morning that after dad got me up, I wanted some relaxing story time.


I forgot to add this last week, but here I am taking my first crack at baseball:

Double Feature

This should really be two posts, but I'm going to cram them into one.




First and foremost, a shout out of Congrats to Miss Avery D. who is now big sister to Miss Mae D. born on Wednesday to Mike and Katrina!

Best of luck to the whole family!











Double Feature Part 1: The Looooooong Weekend at the Lake

On Friday, August 31st we headed to the lake house for the extended weekend.  The weather was pretty dreary so we spent a lot of time indoors.  Dad tried his best to teach me golf, but I think I got it confused with baseball or some other destructive sport that entails swinging sticks to knock down objects.















Mom and dad were smart to keep this little nugget of a toy hidden away from me until we ran out of fun things to do.  The funny part is I think mom and dad had more fun playing with this than I did.














Completely random photo, but mom found these Sears brand D batteries that costs $0.21 in a drawer.  The lake house is a literal time capsule.  I'm guessing D batteries haven't been this cheap since the 70's.

On Saturday, Porter snoozed on the deck until Nicole, Pat, and Clayton arrived, which happend to be just in time to go fishing. 






























BobBob and Ta joined us for a day on Sunday and we spent a lot of time outside. I wasn't super excited to swim, but I thoroughly enjoyed the boat ride. 

























This is usually what everyone looks like on the ride home:




























Mimi and Max dropped by for dinner on Sunday to give mom and dad a break after spending the 3 day weekend with me.  I think I was the one who needed the break more. 
Spoiler Alert: We had oreos for dessert.

























Double Feature Part 2: Number One Fan

On Tuesday mom got up extra early to make me pancakes that came from San Francisco!  When Yai Pom was here she brought me the "World Famous" Sears pancake mix.  They were incredibly good.




On Wednesday, September 5th I went to my first Royals game.  Technically it was my second, but I don't remember it from when I was 6 weeks old.  I did all the stuff you're supposed to do...put money into a giant piggy bank, rode a carousel, hit off a tee, ate junk food and popcorn, and of course, sang Take Me Out to the Ball Game.













Check out this action shot mom snapped of Slugger shooting the hot dog gun.  What timing! Why does this picture make me think inappropriate things?
















I even got this awesome certificate.  Okay...so maybe I'm not the number one fan, but at least I'm official!
