Honey Pot Hill Farm

Mommy and Daddy took me to Honey Pot Hill Farm today. It's an apple orchard, but Mommy and Daddy decided I was too young to go picking yet. So we rode on a hay ride, I saw some animals, and we ate cider donuts. Here are the pictures:

I was looking for Daddy to give me some more!

Check out my yearbook photos!

Mommy talked about this cool website here. Check out some past yearbook pictures of me (Mommy's post explains it all).

Mommy and Daddy took me up to the White Mountains in NH to go camping. We had so much fun! First we went to the Flume Gorge where we met up with Auntie Alicia, Uncle Matt, and Thijs. Daddy carried me in a backpack carrier, and I got a bird's eye view of everything.















These next two pictures are of the campsite. We didn't get to take many pictures there because shortly after this it poured and we had a big thunderstorm. We didn't even get to have s'mores!



The next day we went to a place called Polly's Pancake Parlor. We heard this was the place to go for pancakes. Unfortunately we had to wait for over an HOUR to get seated. Thijs and I hung out in the grass and were very well behaved.







Once we got seated (I was super tired) I occupied my time by shredding napkins.


Mmmm pancakes.

Weekend full of doctor visits! Yay!

On Friday I wasn't feeling like myself and when Mommy took my temperature it was 102.4. She gave me some medicine which helped a bit, but I still wasn't feeling all that well the next day so she and Daddy took me to the pediatrician.

Turns out I have a little ear infection. So they gave me amoxicillin to fix it. Mommy mentioned that Daddy was allergic to penicillin, and they said it can be hereditary but to just keep an eye out for any reaction.

Well after two doses, I was full of hives this morning. Here are some pictures.

This first one is blurry because I was moving around so much.
Here Daddy is holding my head to show the one under my chin so we could show the doctor when we went back.
These next ones all came out after the doctor visit.
This was a HUGE one on my hip.


I didn't seemed bothered by them and they are mostly gone now. The nurse did say there is a 20% chance I could be allergic to the alternative medicine. Let's hope not!

I've grown so much!

June has completely flown by and now we're into July! I've started crawling, or scooting on my bum really, and my personality is really starting to come through. I make funny faces all the time now. Here are some pictures of what I've been up to recently.

Mommy bought me this big frog pool. I really like it since it has been so hot up here recently.



This is me at a backyard kiddie pool playdate. I loved the pool and stayed in there even when my friends got out.

Here is a picture of me on the 4th of July. I got to celebrate it with my friends Sophie and Tyler. We have pictures of them too, but this isn't their blog so we're not posting them for now. You can see I wore red, white, and blue though.



This is a picture of the pina colada pie Mommy made. It was very good. Daddy let me taste it.



This weekend we went up to Alton Bay, NH for cousin Thijs's dedication. I got to play in the lake beforehand. Thijs and I had a lot of fun.

This video is me just hanging out by the edge (sorry for the bad video, Blogger made it look bad.)



Here are some pictures of me, Thijs, Daddy, and Uncle Matt hanging out in the lake.

Here are some pictures during the dedication. Auntie Alicia's sister, Alida, had her daughter, Ella, dedicated too!

And the biggest thing I've been doing is saying "Hi!" Mommy says this is my first word. I even started saying "Hi kitty" to all my best friends, Domino, Ellie, and Betty. Mommy took a video of it tonight.

Mommy takes a lot of photos of me

Because I make a lot of funny faces.

Daddy teaches me new stuff!

Sorry I haven't been around much. Daddy has been busy teaching me new tricks like this:

Easter Sunday

I visited both sets of grandparents this past Sunday for Easter.

Grammy gave me a princess chair. I love it! (The pictures are a little grainy because Mommy forgot to change the ISO on her camera)


Mason (Uncle Mikey's dog) wanted to have it, but I told him he can't be a princess.



I made Daddy let me taste his juice. He just let me try the bottle.




Grammy and I had matching outfits on!


I then headed over to Memere and Grandpa's house. I hung out on the couch for a bit.




I sat with Memere for a bit.


Mommy and Daddy got to hold Thijs for a bit. He's so cuddly!



These two are just me being cute!



Uncle Matt tried holding both me and Thijs. He's really strong!




I got to sit on Grandpa's lap after dinner. I kept trying to grab his spoon, so he eventually just let me taste it.


Memere has a dog named Tia. She wasn't sure what to make of me, but I thought her barking was really funny!

Millions of peaches...

Peaches for me!

First Black Eye

I fell over and hit my eye on my drum that I like to play. Hence my first black eye.
