Bubbles and Brenna

Robbie's friend, Brenna came over to play. She and Robbie loved playing with bubbles in the backyard.

4th of July Weekend

Robbie had a great 4th of July! It started out by going to the Eagle's Nest pool with mommy and Evie. This was the first time of the season that we went to the pool. We stayed in the kiddie pool and Robbie loved having a pool just his size.



The next activity of the weekend was a trip to Funland with Jack, SueSue, Stef and Laura. Robbie had a blast!

Jack and Robbie had some bonding time on the boardwalk.



Robbie talked about the helicopters with Stef for, well, he still is!




You can see the fear in Susan's eyes!



Laura and Robbie on the carousel.




Robbie loved shooting water at the pirate ship. Please note the product placement.

The next item on the docket was an overnight trip to the Riddles. After a day at the pool, Mommy, Daddy and Evie went back home and Robbie stayed behind to watch the fireworks. He got to see a couple before the rain came.



All in all a good 4th!

Smarter Than Us

Robbie is very smart. He has an uncanny ability to figure out a way to overcome many different obstacles. The unfortunate part about that ability is that most of those obstacles are put into place by us, his less smart parents, to try to do things like, uhm, get him to sleep. He used to have a step stool in his room to get into his bed - that came out when he used it to turn on his lights at night. To get him to nap when he wouldn't in his bed, we would put him in his tent - he has figured out how to escape.

A few weeks ago, we won a TV. This meant that we had an extra TV to put in his room. This was nice because it had a sleep timer and would turn itself off after awhile. We placed the TV on his high dresser, so there was no way he would be able to reach the TV to turn it back on - remember, no step stool in his room anymore. He found a way.



Yep, that is a basket for his toys that he dumped out and turned upside down (that is now out of his room too).




He may be smarter than us, but he will always be our baby boy (until he figures a way out of that).

Refresh!

Robbie enjoyed playing in the sprinkler. He couldn't quite decide whether it was a water fall or a shower - either way, it was fun!

HONK!

Robbie loves to play with noses. A one finger tap is a beep. A full fist of nose is a honk. Poor Uncle Mark is getting a full on HONK!

How is Potty Training Going?

We are working on it.

Happy Father's Day!

Robbie made his daddy a book for Father's Day. The book included pictures telling why Robbie loves his Daddy that Robbie had colored.


Robbie also made sure that his daddy won a new TV from Community Bank of Delaware (Robbie encouraged his daddy to enter a drawing for it). Granted, the TV will probably show more Thomas than anything else, but Happy Father's Day anyway.
