Update...

Sorry it has been so long since my mom posted anything. She is starting to feel much better. I am very excited that I will be getting a big brother or sister. My mom has her ultrasound on Nov 12 and will be 17 weeks so hopefully I can find out then if it's a brother or a sister!

Last weekend my dad went to a Snow Show and came back with a quad that is my very own. It will be a little while before I can ride it on my very own but I am starting to get the hang of it. It's fun to go fast on it!

Monkey See, Monkey Do

I learn things very quickly and like to copy everything that my mom and dad are doing. Here is a picture of me washing my tricycle. I watched mom wash her car and I learned how to do it.

Michigan's Adventure

Last Saturday Grandma Nyboer took the whole family to Michigan's Adventure. I had a blast. First we played in the water park and I got to splash around in the kiddie pool. I even went down the small slide in the kiddie pool with mom. Then we went on some rides. Normally I would be too small to ride on some of them but since I had my cousins to help me I was able to go. My grandma even tried to ride on a boat ride with me and got temporarily stuck in the boat. Good thing grandma has a great spirit because we laughed and laughed. We love making memories together.

Vacation

Last week we spent 4 nights up at Rose and Gary Bryan's cottage. We were in real need of a vacation and it was just the kind that we like. We relaxed the whole time. We went up with mom's side of the family. It was the first time in a very long time that she and all her brothers and sisters were on a vacation together. I hardly ever get to sped time with Aunt Lindsey and Aunt Katie so it was really great to spend time with my family.

We spent our days lounging on their private beach. And my favorite thing was to go for rides. I got to drive their golf cart and quads (with dad and mom's help) all over their 200 and some acres. I thought I was pretty big stuff.

One night the whole family went down and shot clay pigeons. We were all surprised that I wasn't even afraid of the sound of the guns. Grandpa says " that is the first step at a great hunter". Grandpa showed us the gun that I will get some day. I can't wait until I am old enough to go hunting with Grandpa and Uncle Mike.

Binder Park Zoo

On Friday we went to Binder Park Zoo with Grandma Stegenga. I was there last year with my other grandma but I was still too little to see all the animals. I call all animals puppies so mom and grandma tried to teach me all of them. My favorite animal was the giraffes. You can pet and feed them cookies. It was a fun day!

Beach Bum

Yesterday we went to the beach. I had a great time playing in the sand and kicking in the water. I like to watch the other kids play too. I really like being a beach bum!

Splish Splash

The weather has been so nice mom dug out the kiddie pool so I could splish splash around. The hose is very fun to play with. I like to drink out of it. In July the Sandy Pine water park is supposed to open and I can't wait. Mom and I can go there and play in the kiddie pool and activity area with other kids. Maybe we can even see dad on his lunch break:)
