Ok, Mommy is going to try to update my blog since she hasn't been tying anything since MAY! Bad Mommy! We are really busy and this summer has been 'interesting'. Many ups and downs, but Evn and I keep Mommy and Daddy grounded and remind them of what is important.
I'm going to be one soon - can you believe I am almost 4 years old!!! I have a huge birthday party planned at Teusinks farm and I can't stop talking about it - ALL day long! I am so, so, so excited!
My most current doings include learning about animals and science. I love knowing what animals eat, where they sleep, and how they live. I am a little scientist and always asking questions about my surroundings. It drives Mommy and Daddy a bit nuts sometimes, but they are proud of me because I am so smart and curious about everything around me. I love driving my Jeep around and I can control it really well now. I even take my baby brother for rides! I can ride my bike with training wheels now and I cruise around our neighborhood. I love drawing and can now draw a triangle, circle and square. I've started giving faces and legs to my creations and my drawings have come a long way in the past few months. My favorite place to eat right now - TACO BELL. Mommy just had to type this in here because I almost ask for it daily - can you say Taco Bell addicted? Mommy and Daddy find it funn considering I've never like any kind of Tacos before. I treat my little brother very good and help watch him for mommy. On the trampoline, I have improved SO much. I do many 'super' jumps as I call them. Mommy and Daddy are so impressed! I am not doing soccer or dance this summer but can't wait to get back into them. I still give Mommy and Daddy a run for their money and am feisty as I the day I was born. Loving life, learning, and just enjoying the end of my 3rd year!
Now picture time - warning, mommy is catching up up since May so this will be PHOTO HEAVY!
