Benton County Fair

In July Daddy took me to the Benton County fair.  Mommy wasn't feeling well that day, so Daddy and I met up with Tony at the fair for the morning.  Here are a few highlights from our morning....
Still not a fan of the farm animals.... 
I don't care for the tractor either... 
I guess the clown is okay...
These rides aren't bad.... 
Okay, I guess I like the fair! 
More rides please!
Daddy and I made it to St. Cloud, visited the fair, ate mini doughnuts, and were back home all before nap-time.  What a fun and productive morning!  Next time I hope Mommy feels better and can come with us.  

Minnesota Zoo

We headed to the MN Zoo one Saturday, and I thought it was so cool!  I admit, I am scared of a few animals still (especially at the 'farm'), but I am working on getting better.  Here are a few pictures from our day.

Playing peek-a-boo with the chickens



Taking a tractor ride to the 'farm'...I was scared of the ride.


 There was also a waterfall area where kids could play.  It was such a hot day that I wanted to go in, but mommy and daddy didn't bring my swimsuit.  Mommy let me go in and play anyway....I think this was my favorite part of my day!
Ending the day with a little ice-cream....Yum-O!

Goodbye Summer!

Okay, okay, I admit I have been spending more time focusing on summer than blogging.....but I have enjoyed every minute!  Here are a few things I have been up to in general the last few months.

We have spent ALOT of time outside this summer.  I am a true boy and don't want to do anything unless it involves being outside.  This has been a little challenging for mommy since she hasn't felt the best with the baby, but her and daddy have done their best to keep me busy.

Being silly with Mommy

Love my trike!

Being 'all boy' = a  few scratches...I ran too fast down the driveway, oops!





















































I also spent a lot of time in the pool this summer.  I would swim all day if mommy and daddy would let me.  Here area  few pictures from my adventures.

So much fun!
That's all for now.  I will add some more posts with other adventures from this summer.  I need to catch up before the baby gets here....something tells me that mommy won't have as much time to help me on the computer :)
