There she is with the camera again, Nan.

Let's just smile so she goes away and we can continue our conversation.

I just love dressing up.
Here I am as Captain America. Mom messed up the shield colors, but I'll let it slide. She tries hard.

Yes, it's 80 out. Yes, I have my ski clothes on. Why not?

I don't just mountain bike,

I attack!

I rode 4 miles today. Phew.

I need a chocolate milk to refuel,

then I can climb some trees.

I know, I know, the grandparents are looking at this and freaking out. Don't know what to tell you, they were your smalls before they were my Bigs.

Nan is here. Let's get this party started.


Wild Rose for Thai food.




I have to keep Nan busy. So I make messes, take her to playgrounds,



and LLAMA parties.



They said I could give this guy a hug. Don't think so.

I will take him for a walk.

And go on a hayride.


Okay, now I'm ready for a llama hug:

Oh, Nan's bored again. I'll eat lots of cherries so she has something to clean.


Chiseling a dinosaur egg with Nan. We found a Styracosaurus!

We've had a lot of requests for a picture of me in my dinosaur underwear and shades, so here you go:

Do I have to do all the work around here? Hmmm?

Building my own treehouse:


Washing my cars:

I even do all of the gardening:


Bigs, are you familiar with child labor laws?!

At least I get to go to White-Boat Playground to blow off some steam:


I also get to go mountain biking. I took Lion for a ride this weekend. He had a great time. He was a very popular guy on the trails. I suspect everyone will be riding with their stuffies next weekend. This is what a trendsetter looks like:


I have to carbo load after all that work.

This weekend we went on our annual bike ride to the Castle of Dragons. Dad towed me and my bike to the top. He is super tough.

The Castle of Dragons:

Do you think he's up there?

I don't see the dragon.



Come on guys, let's ride!


Look at that view.

Come on guys. Why do you keep stopping?

I got a paddle board this week. I took a practice run on the carpet.

Cordy, Lion, and I paddled to India.

When we actually got on the water, I was a little less brave.

But look at all these people, can you blame me?
