Batsketball

I know how the game is supposed to work, Dad. I just think my way is better.

Jonathan as art

Thanks to a little computer work, toybox chaos has never looked more artistic.

One more VP picture

Dad just got the formal picture from the vice president's house back -- honestly, if they all told me they were going to wear blue, I would have picked a different shirt. Sheesh.

Going for a swim

Hey! Who's in charge of keeping this pool clean? I'm finding all sorts of junk in here.

Me? No way, Mom. I think I figured out who should do it...

Left foot, right foot, left foot ...

!!!!!!!!!

Hanging out with the VP

Yeah, that's Dad and the Vice President and me, just hanging out at the Vice President's mansion for the day. Dad said it was some sort of work event, but I'm pretty sure I got my invite for being the top Phillies fan in the DC area.

Here's his house. It's pretty nice, I guess. It's no Fort Awesome.

VP Biden had all sorts of rides and games and water slides in his backyard. Dad says they aren't permenant, but I'd keep them all there always if I was second in charge of the world.

They also had some pretty awesome cooling fans that Mom and I played with.

Not a lot of people know that while the president has the secret service protecting him, the vice president has to carry his own water gun.

It's a big back lawn, by the way.

We all had a ton of fun. I can't wait to get invited back for their Fourth of July party, although I should probably wait and see if any other world leaders invite me to their parties first. I don't want to play favorites.

Delivering on expectations

Dad, I'm not really thrilled with this new pool so far. I expected it to be wetter.

Instruction manual

But it says right here that waddling is perfectly acceptable if I don't feel like walking.

Discovering popsicles

There's something wonderful -- and horrible -- about these things. Anybody have a warmer dessert?

Status appropriate T-shirts

I got another one.
