Today we decided to go hang out at Dori’s Mommy & Daddy’s Pool. They have a nice big pool with a really fun diving board. The pool was a little deeper than Wheelie’s pool but we still had a ton of fun.

So I know it’s hard to imagine but Mommy and Daddy have never let me eat ice cream in a cone. Since I was just a little baby boy, they would only get me a plain cone to eat at the ice cream store. I didn’t even know that there was something better. I’ve always liked the plain cone. Well, tonight, Mommy was feeling guilty for being a very busy working Mommy, so she took me to the ice cream shop in our town called Uncle Wiggly’s and got me an actual ice cream cone. Even though she asked the server to only put a little ice cream in the cone, he didn’t really listen. It was also 100 degrees(literally) outside and things got melty very fast. Once I finished my cone, I moved on to Mommy’s milkshake. All in all a very good night. When we got back home, Mommy insisted that I take a bath right away.

Let me know what you think of this fancy new video player.
UPDATE: Fancy new video player did not work. So, here’s the video anyway. Better luck next time.
So daddy is a professional bike riding fool these days. I decided to jump on and give it a shot. The bike was a little big for me but I gave it my best shot.

It was actually not crowded at all, so it was nice. Auntie JJ even brought Sadie…which unfortunately backfired b/c Sadie threw up a bunch. I think it was just too hot for her. We still had lots of fun. Sam and I ran around alot. I didn’t eat any dinner which really upset Mommy but she’ll get over it. It was a good time and I was so wound up when we got home that I didn’t fall asleep until after 9pm! Summer is so much fun!

Dad’s garden produced its first thing for the year. This huge cucumber came out of it. I wanted to play with it, dad and I agreed on just eating it instead.
Just in case you didn’t know, Michael Phelps grew up not far from my house…and I think that there might be something in the water here in Baltimore, b/c as you can see from the pictures below, I am an amazing swimmer! I can already put my head under water, I can float, I can kick on the kickboard…I am “THIS CLOSE” to swimming on my own. Today Mommy took me into the deep end and I loved it. I think I should put a call in to Mike’s(yup, I call him Mike) trainer! Olympics here I come…

I mixed the batter (and got it all over the kitchen), mixed it up (I saw dad grab the mix and had it ready by the time he got the bowl out), mixed them up, sprayed the pan down, poured the batter, flipped them, and put them on the plate. Mom and dad couldn’t find the camera for the first bit but luckily got the final bits here.
