Bath in a pot

Hey!! Why I am in this pot? Am I dinner? What's that pineapple doing over there? I do not like where this is going!
Okay. It turns out that I am not dinner, but just getting a well needed bath. Mommy is a smart cookie. She figured out that I would fit just perfectly in this little pot.

I spent a lot of time trying to eat the bubbles. Boy did they taste good.

Sandbox time in my undies

Every once in a while, a guy is so excited to play in his sandbox that he doesn't have time to put on pants. This was one of those times.

My first pizza

No, it's not the first time I've eaten pizza, but the first time I MADE pizza. Daddy and I made the most amazing pizza. Our half had sausage and cheese. Mommy's part had pineapple and jalapenos. This was me out in the backyard enjoying the last slice.

Your weekly bow fix.

I know what you are saying: what's with all the bows?! Well, mommy and my grandmas absolutely love me in them. And boy do they look good!!




Swim Lessons

It's that time of year again...swim lessons. This year I am taking lessons at the neighborhood pool. It has been a lot of fun. We do a fair amount of actual swimming, but my favorite part is the jumping. Today I managed to jump off the diving board all by myself.
There is supposed to be another girl taking lessons with me, but she just screams when her parents put her into the water. That means I get one on one swim instruction. That is too bad for the screamer, but GREAT for me. My teacher is really nice and we do a lot of talking.
Here I am working on my kicking.
At this point in the swim lesson my teacher said we could go jump off the diving board. However, I had to inform her that I only do that on Tuesdays. She was a little confused.

Washing Windows

I thought our window looked a little dirty, so I gave it a good washing with my Green Bay Packer noodle and swimsuit. It cleaned up pretty good.

My first train ride.

I went on my first train ride today. Daddy and I took the Metra train to the zoo. On the ride out we rode on the lower level, but on the ride back we sat on the upper level. I absolutely loved the guy who punched our tickets on the train. I've been pretending to be a ticket puncher all day. Today was a very good day.

Day at the Zoo

This dinosaur is not real. However, trust me when I say, it looks VERY real. What is even more disturbing is that it moves and makes noise. Daddy kept telling me that it was not real, but who would have the time to make such an enormous FAKE dinosaur that roars. I think it is real.
I wonder whether that rhino could jump over this wall? He's cute and all, but I'm glad he is way over there.
Daddy and I also went on the merry-go-round. I rode the ostrich. She proved to be pretty fast.

Puppet Time

I'm supposed to be taking a nap right now. Instead, I pulled all of my pillows and sheets down on the floor to play puppets. I was being so quiet that I was sure daddy would not come and check on me. I was wrong.


Summer Fashion

Mommy and I like how I look in summer dresses...and of course bows.



Name that baby!!

Fisher or Kitson?

Home Run Derby!

The last few weeks I have become increasingly interested in baseball. Today daddy and I went out to get a new bat...a Spider Man baseball bat. Mommy thought that I would need a t-ball stand to hit the ball. As you can see from this video, I do not need a stand. I was hitting home runs left and right.

Millennium Park

Today we all headed to Millennium park in downtown Chicago. It was a great day. To get there we had to walk over this amazing bridge. It was curvy and went right over the highway.

Our first stop was at the Great Lawn. People can sit on the grass, relax, and listen to live music. Kitson seemed to really enjoy this. How cute is she in her hat?!


Mommy, Kitson, and I enjoyed the music so much that we started dancing.

The Bean

This is the bean at Millennium Park. I guess they call it the bean because it looks like a big shinny bean. It's the shiniest bean I've ever seen. You could even see yourself in the reflection.
How about this for some awesome art. This is a picture from underneath the bean. If you look close enough, you can see our reflection in this craziness.


The Faces at Millennium Park

Millennium Park is an amazing place. In one area they have two 50 foot faces looking at each other. The faces smile, blink, and even shoot water. There were hundreds of kids running around in the water. What a cool park!

That was a lot of fun! I am sooo wet.
Here are a couple of videos of the experience.
