O.K now it's my turn to drive!!

I love to swim!

So....I got to go on another trip and this time I flew to Mattoon, Il and got to go swimming again. I felt so cool chillin in my very own float with my sunglasses on soakin in some Illinois sun!

Here is my Uncle Scott and Cousins Kari and Kirsti taking me around in the pool!

My wild weekend!

I went to my first football game this weekend! I watched the Mattoon Breakers beat their rival from accross town. The best part of the whole day was posing with the cheerleaders! Wow am I one lucky liitle guy:) My cousin Kari is a part of the squad and is holding me in front of all these pretty girls!

My new favorite outfit.

As you all know, I was born in our Nation's Capital, so I like to show my USA pride with my outfits. I am a patriotic little man!

My own seat!

I got my own seat at the table and I am hanging out with mom and dad at dinner time. Not sure what they are putting in their mouths, but it sure looks like fun!

I love to laugh!

I love when my mom and dad tell me jokes!

Keeping cool

It is really hot here in DC this weekend so me and my dad are in the basement playing some XBOX. This racing game is pretty intense!

Bestefar and his Barnebarne

Here is Bestefar and all of his barnebarne (grandchildren, for those non Norwegians!) We are just coming back from church and breakfast dressed in our Sunday best!

Lots of smiles!

Aren't we cute cousins!!

Hanging out by the pool with Donna making me giggle!

All the new faces!

I got to meet my Pseudo Grammy Cathy! She gave me a ton of kisses and hugs when I went to her house. She is great!

This is my Great Aunt Lorraine, she made me giggle when she held me. Hopefully next time I will get to meet all my cousins!

All that I did for the first time!

Relaxing by the pool... This is my first time in the big pool and boy do I love splashing around in the water and of course soaking up the midwest sun on my raft! This is the life; now I just need my parents to get us a pool at home! :)

At the park

My first time on a slide with my Aunt Sonja and Cousin Kirsti cheering me on! Six Flags here we come mom!!!

Back from my first vacation!

This week I promise to have lots of updates, because I did a lot of new things over the weekend! I went to Chicago and had a lot of fun, so keep checking back...

Look at all those big buildings! I don't see those back home in Washington, DC because they won't let anything get built taller than the Capitol.

Where have I been?

Have you been wondering where I have been? Well I was on vacation in Chicago and let me tell you did I had an exciting time. I have so much to tell you and show you so fasten your seat belts! I did on my first plane ride and it was great! Stay tuned...

Back to my old self!

Why not a lot of pictures this week? Well, my parents took me to The Picture People to have fancy pictures made. They were OK, but my parents take pretty good pictures. Anyway, I had a lot of fun smiling for the pretty lady - she made me laugh!

I am feeling better here and back to playing, but I wasn't feeling so good this week with a cold and then I had to get my 4 month shots on Friday - what a way to start the weekend! Today was much better and I feel back to my normal self.

Playing in style!

So I have been so busy with school and my tummy time this week that I haven't had a chance to tell you all what I have been up to. Well, my mom took me to my favorite store; you know, Babies R Us and got me these cool sunglasses! Here I am sporting my new shades and playing with my favorite toy that my cousins Kari and Kirsti got me - a banana!
