Sharing the glory

I realized last time that I didn't include many pictures of my baby sister Clara. It was my birthday, so I don't feel too bad about it. On that note, Clara came with us to Elena's birthday party and had a blast doing Jazzersize with Cooper's mommy.

Here's one of her and Grandma showing off her baby quilt. Grandma is a real pro at quilting. I hope to learn how to quilt one day so I can make pretty quilts like this one.
I really like to hold Clara. The problem is she's a GIANT!! That kid is going to be bigger than me before too long and I'm already 2 years old.

Today was a beautiful day in Portland, so daddy and I worked in the yard. Daddy trimmed the bushes and I pushed my shopping cart around. Daddy mowed the grass, and I drew some pictures with the sidewalk chalk. Aren't I a good helper?
Just in case there are ever any rainy days in Portland, my Aunt Mel and cousins Kylie and Shaye got me this cool umbrella. Mommy and I did a little dancing in the rain duet in the living room.

Busy Weekend

I apologize to all of my fans for taking so long to post. My secretary decided to stat his own blog and has been neglecting mine for weeks. It's so hard to find good help these days.

That being said it was AWESOME to have Mema in town this week. We had an great time playing and reading stories. Mom and dad left her all alone with Clara and I on Thursday. She did a great job!!

Friday night we went to a birthday party for our neighbor Elana. She was turning 5 and had her party at the playground gym. That place was pretty sweet. They had padded walls so I could run around like a crazy child. They also had really heavy balls that dad and I worked our abs with. But the best part was the jazzercise class!
Friday was my birthday too! We had everyone over on Saturday for breakfast and we had a great time. Mom and Dad made me a birthday cake out of doughnuts. YUM!!
Uncle Curt, Aunt Deanna, Noah, Micah, and Grace came up for the party. Micah and I share a birthday, his is 3/2/01 and mine is 3/2/10 isn't that CRAZY!!!
All that partying can really tire a girl out though. But it was no problem, I had more than enough sugar to balance out the tired. We went down to Grandma and Grandpa's house to have another party for Micah and Noah (his birthday was in February) and we had more cake!!! I spent the entire ride home chatting with mom. Well I chatted and she mostly sat there with her eyes closed trying to sleep. What a great week!!!
