Another busy month

Howdy friends!

I will try to get you all caught up on the happenings at our house in the last few weeks.

Mom and Dad abandoned me one night this month to go to a Rockies baseball game. I was pretty bummed that I didn't get to go, but I had a great time visiting with my friend Sam and his mom and Dad.

Here are Mom, Dad, Scott and Andrea at the game

We also had a great time witnessing Zach and Heidi's wedding - those two are alright. It was a fun day, but I got pretty tired after playing with "Uncie" Dave and "Auntie" Lori.

These two (Dave and Lori) need to have kids of their own someday - wink, wink

We've been spending a lot of time this month working on painting the exterior of the house - Mom and Dad say that it's needed new paint since Dad moved in six years ago! They finally got around to it... and it's still a work in progress.... but from the street it looks finished. They had lots of help from friends to get the job done. I also was a big help... every time Mom got out her brush I would yell encouragement to her in my best cheerleader voice... needless to say, Mom did not get a whole lot done during the days while Dad was at work - I made sure of it!

This is the before photo of the house

Here's the new house color - we'll have to get a picture of it in the light next time

As you saw on my last posting I'm getting around pretty well. Mom has been putting the baby gate up at the top of the stairs so that I won't go tumbling down, but somehow I forget about the falling part and I want to go through that gate all the time. Mom also puts Boscoe's food dish on the other side of the gate and I really like his water bowl - endless entertainment!

I really want Boscoe's bowl - when will I ever get what I want

I've also been exploring more foods. I really like cheerios and I'm beginning to like things like pasta and crackers.

Here's me with a couple of my new fav foods:

The graham cracker took a little getting used to

Boscoe and I both like cheerios - I have to be fast to get them before Boscoe

I feel pretty good about spilling my cup - so does my buddy

Mom, Dad, Scott and Andrea and I went out for dinner (to Coloradans)/supper (to Iowans) last night. We had Mexican food and I absolutely love refried beans. We also found out that I like tortilla chips - but Daddy got nervous about me choking and took them away. Mom and Dad don't go out with me that much anymore because I like to "sing" while I'm at eating establishments. I don't like to be shy about it either, however, Mom and Dad wish I would be a little shy - they think I'm too loud.

After spending most of the time in a high chair, I got to hang out on the bench with Daddy and my baby after dinner

Hope you're all doing great.
Love,
Lydia
