17 1/2 Months...Vacations!

I got to go on not one, but two vacations the past couple of weeks!  It has been so nice having my family together.  I got to stay with Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Tom one day while Mommy, Daddy, and Ellie went to Six Flags.  I'm not sure what that is, but I think I may want to go there someday.  Ellie looked like she had a lot of fun when she came back!  The next day, our whole family went to the zoo!  It was so fun to see all the animals.  I especially liked the ones that moved fast in the water, like the penguins, sting rays, and seals.  That day wasn't over!  We came back home and went out to eat at Hu Hot and I made the people around us laugh with my antics.  After that, we went to Bonkers!  I loved climbing on everything and going down the slide.  I sure was exhausted after that!
Our second vacation was at Beaver Lake in Arkansas.  We went there to surprise Papa Rick for his 70th birthday.  I got to meet my two uncles, Davy and Sammy, and a whole bunch of my extended family.  I went swimming in the lake, played on a lily pad, went in a boat, kayaked with Mommy, and rearranged some children's tables and chairs so many times I can't even count!  We went out to dinner one night too.  I did really well with napping and sleep most nights, but man, I was tired after that trip!
In between those trips, we did other stuff too!  We went over to Nana Arden's to celebrate Mommy and Aunt Lisa's birthday, had a pool party at one of Ellie's friend's houses, had a play date here, went to the spray park, and went out for ice cream.  Ellie and I also went with Mommy to get her car serviced.  I LOVED the toy cars they had in the display and really wanted Mommy to open the case.  I don't know why she didn't.  I also entertained people there!  I'm really messed up with my naps and I have no idea what is going to happen when I go to Bruna's next week!

Checking out the Children's Zoo with Daddy and Ellie
I told you there were fish!
 Quality time with my sister at the zoo
 So much fun!
Just observing
 Sitting on the frogs
3 Monkeys
 Checking out the giraffes and seals
Checking out the animals with Mommy.
All this observing wore me out!
 But not too much for a little climbing and sliding later on!
Is that where they put you when you are in trouble?
I can't wait to be near the water and the boats!

Kayaking with Mommy (one of my favorite things to do)
Rearranging those darn chairs.  My work is never done!
 I'm satisfied for now

I've got MOVES!
 Get outta my way!
I love slides!
Mommy is a pretty good obstacle course too
 Lemons are pretty tasty
I've got mad balance skills!
