Gym birthday party

Since we've been so into Ninja Warrior lately, Mom and Dad decided I should have a birthday party at the local tumble gym. And it was awesome. 

They had places to run.

They had rings to swing on. 

They had a balance beam. 

They had a place for Jonathan to nap. 

And after we were all sweaty, they had cake. After that I had enough sugar to bounce a lot more, but Mom thought maybe that wasn't the best idea. Still, it was a ton of fun. 

Happy birthday to me (version 2, part 5)

Yep, it's that time again -- let's check in on how much our big bear has shrunk again. I'm starting to think Mom and Dad may never address this problem.

Here we were the after just a few days at home:

And after one year:

This was just three years ago:  

Two years back? The bear got smaller:

And last year was even smaller:

And now? Yeah, you guessed it:

The good thing is that even though lots of things change each year, some things don't. For example, Jonathan still brings out the weird in me.

Frankly, we're a pretty good team. 

On last trip to the pool

It's pretty chilly right now, but I still wish they could keep the pool open all year. Maybe if they put in some heaters...

First football of the season

And now for some pre-season level attempts at Eagles cheers...

Fall flowers

It's not winter yet. Let's get this garden looking happy again. 

I've got it from here

It's OK, Dad. We can walk ourselves in. We're pretty much pros at this now, you know. 

At the car wash

Before it starts to get cold, we really should get some of the sand from our beach trip off of this car. 

Yeah, it's totally normal to wash a car in pajamas. Why do you ask?
