Potty training

I'm getting so good at this. Diaper changes are almost a thing of the past.

Curtain call

Auntie Angie was supposed to come over and help Mommy sort through baby clothes. Instead, I made her second-in-command for my impromptu puppet show.

Funny face

Please, no pictures while I'm in the middle of chewing my food.

Seeing double

This is Charlotte. Actually, maybe this is Natalie. All I know is I went to the first birthday party for two girls who looked identical and it sure was confusing.

Art in the a.m.

I enjoy working on my coloring pages early in the morning, especially when there's lots of natural light to be had.

Getting hitched

I received a special invitation in the mail today. Looks like Uncle Turkey and Auntie Floog have a big event coming up.

Making it great

You can't live in Wichita and not be a fan of Pizza Hut. After all, this is the birthplace of the famous pizza company. I'm a fan of hand-tossed pepperoni, in particular.

Diving back in

I haven't had much time in the pool lately, not with all the rain and unseasonably chilly weather. But I was back in the water today blowing bubbles and splashing like never before.

Parks and Recreation

I'm becoming quite the jungle gym connoisseur. I'm always on the hunt for great places to play outdoors.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

They have a jungle painted on the wall, they have animal-shaped chairs and they even have cartoons to watch. What this salon doesn't have is anyone who can give me a decent haircut.

Hesston Swather

Mommy has talked about being a Hesston Swather, but today we saw a real live Hesston Swather.

Saturday, August 17, 2013

The KPTS Kids Club had an awesome visit this morning to the Kansas Firefighters Museum. We also went next door for a tour of to Station No. 2 and saw fellow Hesston Swather Josh. I even got to run the fire hose!

Bathtub art

Maybe someday my bathtub drawings will be some archeologist's discovery.

A storm blowin' in

I can't quite say the word "ominous" but I definitely know scary-looking, fast-moving thunderclouds when I see them.

Underdog!

Uncle Jeff was passing through Wichita again today, so I showed him how to properly execute an underdog on the swing.

Raindrops keep falling on my head

All the rain we've had lately really helps the plants grow tall. Maybe if I stand outside in the rain for a little while, I'll grow taller, too!

(August 13, 2013)

Dig in

There's lots of sand at the park and only one of me to move it all.

(August 12, 2013)

Blessing of the backpacks

I was the smallest kid at church, but I was sporting the largest backpack.

A dynamite duo

Remember that Sonny and Cher comparison from a while back? We'll be taking this show on the road in no time.

Tickle torture

I don't know how I survived.

Uncle Jeff

Uncle Jeff was in town all the way from Alabama and went with me to school this morning. He sure is funny.

(Aug. 8, 2013)

Indoor playground

There's been a lot of rainy days lately, which means I have to be creative with playtime.

Shattered glass

On the bright side, my milk glass was completely empty when it fell to the ground with a crash.

A doll's house

I really loved playing with the doll house Kira had when I visited her. Turns out Bridgit had one that needed a good home, so Mommy moved my doll house all the way from KC to ICT.
