Pudding

We dropped some cucumbers off at my neighbors' house and ended up spending a great deal of time there this morning.  Tate LOVED the chickens!!  No matter where we went in the yard, he would always walk back to see the chickens.  My neighbors enjoyed seeing Tate!

Tate had some spoon practice and ate chocolate pudding for the first time.  He did very good but then all of the sudden he was COVERED in pudding.  I told him to say "cheese" with his pudding face and he smiled and did it!  So much fun!  Today was a very cool today.  Tate had to wear a jacket outside this morning.  It is raining again right now.

Puddles!

We got another 2.7 inches of rain last night!  Oh my, did Tate enjoy walking through the puddles this morning!  Happy Birthday to my mom!!  She spent the day traveling to Alaska with my dad.  They are going on a cruise.

We entertained my cousin for the past few nights and fed her supper.  She is homeless until her new lease starts in August when she starts vet school.  She is staying with her parents but they were on vacation.  I LOVE ME SOME ANNIE TIME!!

Dentist

I had to go to the dentist today for a cleaning.  My dentist got a sweet new office and it is AMAZING!  He even has iPads on the walls in the waiting room for kids to play with.  I also took my ring to the jewelry store to get resized and plated.  My cousin just so happens to work there so I had fun catching up with her and trying on diamonds!  Then I had to go on a parts run for my dad.  Finally I had to get some groceries.  Tate got to stay with my mom.  When I went to pick him up he was outside with my dad exploring EVERYTHING!  He was having a blast!!  :)  I love to see him so happy!!  It rained another inch last night!  Life is good!

Pictures of my little laundry helper! 

Syrup Boy

I think I gave Tate a little too much syrup on his blueberry pancakes!  He was a sticky mess but he sure loved them!  Not too much going on today.  A bonus picture of the rainbow from the other day. 

Road Trip

My mom, a friend, Tate and I went on a road trip to a quilt shop.  One of my former co-workers watched Tate at her house while we shopped.  I found some cute fabric.  Then we ate at the little café where it took FOREVER to get our mediocre food.  Tate missed his morning nap but held it together the best he could.  It finally rained!!  We got 2.7 inches and had a leak in our basement.  The dehumidifier and fans are going so hopefully things will dry out with no damage.

Ornery

Tate was into EVERYTHING yesterday. He figured out how to open the freezer door on the bottom of the refrigerator. He played with the garden hose for the first time and it was too funny watching him try and take a drink. Too bad I didn't have my camera. He did take a 3 hour nap but 2 of those hours I was laying with him. His diaper rash, crabbiness, and diaper explosion tell me he is working on a tooth.

Somersault

I showed Tate how to do a somersault today and he tried very hard to do one but could not figure it out. I found a snake skin in the yard that was about a foot long. I hope to never find the snake! I ran some cucumbers into the fridge and when I got back outside Tate had picked up a kitty and was carrying it around by its back skin. Good thing it isn't much bigger or else Tate would have been in for a rude awakening. Sorry for the poor photos, it was too dark for the iPad.
