Cause and effect

If I pet it really gently then maybe this time it won't ...

Comprehension

Oh, that's what a cousin is! That one up there is cousin Tommy.

And this one is cousin Ollie.

Now that I've seen them, yeah, I get why everyone was so excited. Pretty cool.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope everybody had a great Turkey Day. I still haven't gotten up from the dinner table.

One last sunny day

Sunday was maybe the final nice day of the year before winter sets in, so I took Mom and Dad to the park for one last trip around the playground.

First up was the swings:



And then I showed them how the slide works:



Hopefully, that'll be enough to hold them over until spring rolls around.

Confused, part 2

Mom and Dad said I got another new cousin this afternoon, so I looked all around the house again, and found this:


It's another holiday card from Aunt Pat (Happy Thanksgiving, Aunt Pat!). Do you think Mom and Dad haven't learned the right word for "card" yet?

New chair

Also, it's a giant baseball, which is awesome.

Rough weekend

After a weekend like the last one, even getting my socks off is too exhausting for words.

Artist at work

What Mom doesn't seem to understand is that creativity can't be confined just to paper sometimes. And I'm pretty sure that lid is washable.

Anyways, here's a copy of one of the pictures I drew today, so you can print it out and hang it on your refrigerators.

Oops, I posted it upside down! Look at how ridiculous that looks. Here's the right side up.

Sorry for the confusion there.

A little light reading

I get that the pokey little puppy represents America's post-recession economy, and the hole he dug is the lingering downturn in the housing market, but what does the bowl of pudding stand for?

Also, can I have some pudding?

Fun with leaves

They're not as soft as pillows, but still pretty fun.


Dad's note: Also, cutest Mom hug ever.

Confused

Mom and Dad keep saying I have a brand new cousin, but the only new thing I can find around here is this Halloween card from Aunt Pat. And it's a really cool card, but it doesn't explain why Grandmom and Grandpop are so excited.
