St. Louis Weekend


Sorry these pictures are a little out of order. Day 2 in St. Louis was spent at Grant's Farm. The first thing we did was feed the baby goats. Their little bottles were so cute. I did fine when they were behind the fence, but when we went out with them it was a different story.


Here mom and I are up close and personal feeding the camels.


The ducks were awfully cute too. I wanted to climb the fence and get out and play with them.


Here I am riding the carousel at Grant's Farm. It was one of the highlights!


Sorry, this one's a little fuzzy. I need to give dad some tips on not trying to zoom in too far.


More little goats!!! I loved feeding them bottles....that is until they all came up and swarmed me. That is when I handed the bottles off to dad.


One of my new experssions is saying something is "everywhere." Well I told mom and dad many times that "Goats were everywhere."


It was a good thing the stadium had a kiddie area. Ethan and I loved to run and climb on all the baseball toys.





Ethan was much more brave than me. Here he is with Smoltz.


He also got his picture with Springfield boy Rasmus.


Pujols was such a trooper. Since I would not go out for a picture, he came over and scooped me out of mom's arms and got a picture with me. He was so strong he held Ethan and I at the same time. Sorry the picture is fuzzy. Daddy was trying to zoom too much!


Once we got to the stadium I had to wait a loooooong time. Good thing mom had some caffiene free diet coke on hand.


Here Ethan and I were posing in front of a minuature arch on the walk to Busch Stadium.


Peeps is great at giving piggy back rides!!


Here I am doing what I do best.....using the tape measure and screwdrivers. I have so much fun when mom actually lets me get the ladder out.


Here I am posing in my Sunday's best, but I was not too thrilled about it.g

Fun with Friends and Cousins


Here I am posing for Gramma Jackie in the recliner. She and Poppy came and delivered a big rock for the backyard. Another fun thing for me to climb on!


Here I am awaiting the delivery of the rock.


Here I am with my buddy Luke at Rutledge Wilson Farm. We both loved the fountain.


Sharing a ride on the tractor was a lot of fun too. Of course we both had to sit on all three of them.


Last fall mom and dad took me to RW Farm too and I was a little to young for all the slides. But this time, I was a pro and was doing every slide all by myself.


Luke and I wanted to climb on all the fences keeping the animals pened in. Of course I was not really obeying the signs about keeping hands back and not feeding the animals.


There was also a black cat running around that I was determined to pet.


Here I am on another tractor.


These photos are a little old. Back when Gage and Blane were in town we all went to incredible pizza. I loved all the rides.


The train was by far my favorite and at last count I conned mom into letting me ride it 9 times. Of course I had to throw a little fit when I had to get off.


Another race car at Incredible pizza.


I also really liked the NASA Rocket.

4th of July with my bud Ethan


4th of July was a blast. We went to a Cardinal's game (Springfield that is) with Gage and Blane as well as my buddy Ethan. We were all decked out in our Cardinals attire. Even though there were no maternity Cardinals attire, mommy sported a visor that night.


Daddy and I look pretty cool huh!!!


Here I am posing for mom in my dump truck. She said something about using the picture for my birthday party invitations. If that's the case and it involves a party, I better comply.


Ethan and I whipped up some pretty yummy meals with my kitchen. He hung out with me all night on Friday. Boy did we have fun.


The ice cream with M & M's may have been the highlight of the night for both of us.


Here I am with Ethan doing smoke bombs and sparkers. He was a bit of a light weight and didn't like anything noisey, so I had to wait until Saturday night at Gram and Poppy's to do the loud stuff.

Vacation and My First Plane Trip


Sorry its been so long since I posted pictures, but I seem to be having major meltdowns when mom gets the camera out to take pictures. For some reason, I think I need the camera instead of mom. Here I am posing with dad and mom on the way to church on Father's Day.




Waiting to board the plane was tough....I just wanted to see what it was like in there.


Here I am posing with mom in our seats. Well, at least she is sitting.


I spent most of my time walking between the seats and in aisles. I am sure the stewardesses really like me helping them serve the "cokes."


Here we are at Peepaw's Aunt Pat's house. She had a swell dog named Freckles. I loved playing with her.


Mom barely got me to pose for this group shot. There may have been some candy or coke bribery involved.


Here I am with "Peeps" as I now call him and Great Grandma Ruth. I really liked her, however sitting on her lap for a photo was out of my comfort zone. Even by day 4 I would not sit on her lap.


Here I am playing with Erin. Erin is mommy's cousin's daughter. We bacame fast friends. I even shared my fruit snacks with her at the pool.


Sharing toys with Erin was easy most of the time, however she did not want me erasing her magna doodle pictures for some reason. I could not figure that one out.


Here Erin and I are trying to pose. I was not so sure about the hug thing!


Here is the 4 generation photo mommy was wanting so badly. I still would not sit on Great Grandma Ruth's lap, but sitting with mommy was just fine.


Here is the Corr clan.


Here are "Meems" and "Peeps" with Great Grandma Ruth.


Finally at the end of the trip, Mommy and Daddy went to a wedding together and I got to stay with Meems to watch "boom booms" on Uncle Travis' deck. Boy was that a treat. Over the last two weeks my bed time has been getting later and later. That is GREAT in my opinion.
