More Uncle Paul

Here are some pictures from my morning with Uncle Paul.

At breakfast.


At the school dropoff, Uncle Paul wanted me to eat this corn. Nooo... its just pretend corn!


Uncle Paul reads Winnie the Pooh to me.

Wallingford Farmers Market

Uncle Paul and my mama took me to the Wallingford Farmers Market. Yumm, chocolate ice cream bar!

Uncle Paul is here!

Uncle Paul is here! My mama helped me take this photo at breakfast.

Two Year Checkup

Today I had my two year checkup at Dr. Allen's office. He said I am looking good.

First the assistant measured me. 35 inches tall.


Then I got weighed. 25 pounds, 11 ounces.


Samuel got weighed too, but apparently bears don't weigh anything.


Then we had to wait. Dr. Allen was busy.


Dr. Allen listens to my chest.


He checked Samuel's ears, which he declared to be fine.


Dr. Allen checks my reflexes.

Threshing and winnowing the wheat

Whew, this wheat is a lot of work! But it's fun. Well, my dad says it's fun.

A couple of weeks ago, when Grandma Barb was here, we harvested the wheat. My dad collected the seed heads and put them in a box in the basement to dry.



Yesterday my dad showed me how to thresh the wheat. Dad appears to be an expert.


Today we winnowed it by tossing it in the air. The wind blew away the chaff so that we were left with the grain. This worked, er, okay.


Not a bad haul. Dad is going to finish winnowing, then we gotta grind it!

Third Haircut

I went for a haircut this morning.

Before picture:


I watched Shrek as the nice lady cut my hair. It wasn't so bad really.

Purple parties pictures

Kyra's mama has a photo site with more pictures from a couple of parties and the parade. Here is a link to her Purple Parties Flickr page. It's Purple Parties because all us kids are in the CDC Purple Room. Thank you!

Camping with Beckett

We went camping with Beckett! It was fun. We threw rocks in the river, played trucks, ate hot dogs, and fended off a mountain lion with our bare hands! Well, we didn't really see a mountain lion, but if we had we would have given that lion what for!

Grandma Barb, Mama, and me

Here is a portrait right before Grandma Barb left for the airport. We miss you Grandma Barb!

Rodney our garbage collector

Every week I look forward to Wednesday morning. That's the time that Rodney comes by to collect our garbage. Every week he waves and honks the horn on his big green truck.

Rodney also waves and honks for Mason and Jack Dee. He's the best.


Here he comes!


Honk honk! Hey Rodney!


There he goes!

Trip to the San Juan Islands

Uncle Bob (I call him the guy with the boat) and Aunt Barb bought a house on San Juan Island. Mama, Grandma Barb and I went up there for a visit. Thanks for having us! Here are some pictures from our trip.

On the ferry boat. Big Boat!
