A day playing in the backyard

Octopus macaroni dinner

I thought this was so cool, I had daddy take a picture of me with my octopus hot dog-macaroni dinner.

Did I mention I was from South America?

One afternoon while we were in Florida, mommy, grandma, Kitson and I decided to take the trolley downtown for some ice cream. I got my favorite flavor, superhero ice cream. On the trolley ride home I was feeling good and decided to entertain my fellow trolley riders with a story. I turned to a women sitting near us and told her that I was from South America. She was quite impressed. I also told her I spoke Spanish and proceeded to say a few words in Spanish. Given that my Spanish vocabulary is a little limited I had to improvise a little. Everything I said sounded Spanish, but wouldn't technically qualify as Spanish. Grandma thought it was hilarious and everyone seemed rather entertained. A good time was had by all.

More swimming.

My goodness, did we have fun in the pool. Fisher and I absolutely loved it. Here I am cruising around in my floating crab.

You should have seen how good of a swimmer Fisher is becoming. With those two noodles he was swimming all over the pool.

Look at us go!

Grandpa and Fisher spent a lot of time practicing holding their breath under water. Fisher got so good he could even wave to you under water.

This is my special life preserver. It helps me swim all over the place. I've got lots of energy!

On the beach!

We all had a great time at the beach. Kiston went for so many walks with mommy and daddy on the beach.

I spent all of my time building in the sand. Here you can see two sand chairs that daddy and I constructed. They were super comfortable.

Here I am trying to keep Kitson company, and more importantly, making sure she doesn't eat any sand.

Look at this great castle I built.

Building a castle is hard work. You need to have a good design and then lots and lots of shoveling.

This was an excellent shovel.

Today's pre-lunch conversation.

Mom: Did you wash you hands?

Fisher: Yes.

Mom: Did you use soap?

Fisher: Yes.

Mom: Are you telling the truth?

Fisher: No.

Videos from Florida

Hello everyone! Sorry for our absence recently. Daddy somehow lost the usb connector from our camera. Silly daddy. He also managed to lose both of our phone chargers. We had a great time in Florida. Maybe the best part was all the swimming we did. I also had a lot of fun eating the sand at the beach.

As you can see, just like my brother, I am a fish in the water.
