That was the shortest T-3 stay ever, You started T-4 today!

We've been at at Holly St for 9 years and your Dad sent to school in the wrong shoes!

You're really embracing this "youngest child is the funniest" thing. It is daily that your siblings laugh at something you say or do. Then yesterday - while you were trying to convince us you were going to try your soup, and instead were eating chips - you looked at Daddy and said,  "Daddy, I'm funny!" as clear as day.

I think you've also figured out timing and catch phrases. When we were in Louisville, Daddy started saying "Guys, hang-on!" when he was turning while driving and to be funny. At one point you said- "No -hang on!". Of course we laughed. Then last weekend - you just said it - "No, hang on!" to be funny.

Goodness - you're a lovable mess!

From T-3

Labor Day Weekend: KY Kingdom

It might be our new tradition - we headed to Louisville for the long weekend and went KY Kingdom for 2 days. I love it because it's close, cheap, and virtually no lines.

Ya'll were so anxious to go that we headed up on Friday, and they weren't even open on Friday. Instead we had an extra day in Louisville and found some spray grounds because it was really hot.

You were anti- any ride the first day. We did trick you on 1 of rides and you got soaked. You were not happy. The 2nd day you got braver - and went several in the kid area, even with Maevy.

Oz Family Day

Someone spent the entire day running in and out of the parachute at Oz Family Day and made the Oz email newsletter with this pic - :)

Better than mine -

2nd Birthday

Junie-

You're 2! We were at the beach and just did a little bit to celebrate. A destination birthday might be regular thing. :)

- You seriously could have lived in the play ice cream truck all week long.
- Going to the beach during a tropical storm when swimming in the water isn't allowed is not easy with a toddler. We basically had to play defense any time we went. You just wanted to run straight in.
- You actually did pretty good in the car and even took 2 naps on the way back.

Milestones-
- We are so thankful that your language seemed to take off the second you turned 2. I was a little worried, then all of sudden-  sentences: some examples -
I want (insert - bar, ball, milk, watch, show, shoes, socks, wah-wah).
Car-car/Mae-mae take (insert item - book, toy).
No share.
I seat Mommy.
I go with Daddy.
Where Audrey go?

Fav food:
Cereal bars, blueberries, any snack

Fav show:
Baby Bum Nursery Rhymes on Netflix

Fav activity:
Water play and anything outside. You seem the most athletic and choose to run, than ride in the stroller. You also love practicing ball throwing with Daddy.

We love you lots and can't wait to see what 2 has in store. I see more independence and lots more laughs. Potty training is just around the corner. :)

 Rainy day arcade visit- "don't take my ducks!"

Present from Grandma- I think you like the backpack better than the game.
