Yeah Dogs

I went to Woodfield the other day with dad to meet Aunt Colleen and her mother-in-law. We went to pick up the dogs and baby-sit them over Thanksgiving.

I was very tired when we got there and I didn't want to wake up, but boy when I saw those dogs I woke up. On the way home I said, "Yeah we got two more dogs."

I like Josie, she is small enough to pick up and carry around. Jade is nice too, but I like Josie the best.

These are perfect dogs for me and Ian. They like to be walked on the leash and they don't try to run away.

I think after Thanksgiving we will return Daisy and Howie to Aunt Colleen and Gramma Lucy. 

Fairs and Picnics

It has been a busy weekend, well more than a weekend. On Thursday we went to the McHenry County Fair. Ian and I spent most of the day together, but near the end we kind of split up so he could ride the dragon roller coaster and I took on the tea cups.


On Sunday Grampa Bimps invited us to the Local 150 annual picnic. The Local 150 training facility is in Wilmington, IL. It was a totally cool day with music, hot dogs, pop, blow up water slides, all the big earth moving equipment you could want to play and climb on, and even a Snort.

 

Of course the best part was ...

Bad parenting skills on display

Don't worry dad I don't think I'll be scarred forever.

I wonder why I can't help laughing every time I hear my brother scream?

First I created some art with my brother.

This is a picture of my mom.

Later I read a book.

 Then I fell asleep on the dog.

Trip to Adler Plaetarium

The train ride was cool, I spent the entire time staring out the window (there and back), but the planetarium didn't have any trains. Next time we have to go to the Museum of Science and Industry, I understand they have a huge train set there.

I like to take things apart. It's just that sometimes I have trouble putting them back together again.

Yesterday, I was trying to ride the little bike that our neighbor gave us last year. I fit on it pretty well, but I have never ridden a two wheeler before so I can't ride it yet.

Mom and dad stopped by Wal-Mart today and decided on the spur of the moment to buy me a bike. Seeing as new training wheels for the little bike can't be found at Wal-Mart and the bike was so cheap I guess. I've been riding all day.

I've crashed a few times already, but thanks to my new helmet and Ian I don't cry very long.
