Turkey

Mommy and Daddy spend an awful lot of time telling everyone what great toddlers we are. They like to brag about what we say and sign, what we like to do, what we like to eat, how we sleep...all that super lame stuff that adults seem to care about. Well, sometimes we like to take it upon ourselves to act super extra goofy, so Mommy and Daddy have no choice but to tell everyone just how big of turkeys we can be. Like today, I decided to walk around with cookies in my mouth...

Mommy said I get extra points for being so patriotic. Want to know why else today was an especially turkey-ish day? Well, when Mommy took me and Ella to the park this morning while Daddy was golfing, all I wanted to do was sit on the slide and make faces at Mom.

Then, tonight, Ella decided to empty Caddie's toy bin. I decided to use it as my new jungle gym.

Yep...turkeys.

MSCI

We know it's been a long time since we updated, but we haven't had much to say. We've kept pretty busy the last week or so, but we haven't done anything worth noting...and we don't want to bore any of you with the mundane-ness of our routines. Especially since we had such a great long weekend that we want you super excited to hear all about it! Saturday, Mommy and Daddy left for Maryland for the annual MSCI conference, and fortunately for us, they decided to leave us home with Liz. See, we love traveling, but usually Liz has such awesome things planned for us that we end up having more fun without Mommy and Daddy than we do when they're home. And this time was NO exception: first, Liz got us little weekend goodie bags with sand toys, a pinwheel and socks and sunglasses.

Awesome right? Then, she let us play with her phone!!

Good thing we're so responsible and well behaved, we only used it to check in with Mom and Dad. Then we got to make cookies,

and she gave me my first pedicure.

She even remembered Ice Cream Monday!

But the very best part? We got to spend yesterday afternoon at the zoo! It was awesome!!! We loved everything, but we especially loved when we got to be a polar bear.

We even got toys from the gift shop,

AND we got to be burger kings and queens!

Amazing! When's the next conference?

Ice cream Monday

Mother's Day was pretty awesome. But want to know what's even awesomer?

Ice cream Monday. Clearly ice cream is superior to mommies because mommies only get one day a year, but ice cream gets every Monday...all summer long. Awesomest.

Dough

Have you ever had cookie dough? What about chocolate chunk-peanut butter chip-toffee-pretzel mm cookie dough?

We have.

It's delicious.

Park

Today, Mommy and me and Ella, we went to the park. There's this super awesome one right by our house that we walked to a few times last summer, but this is the first time we got to play at it. Oh my gosh! It was so much fun! I was pretty much a master of the slide.

It's basically the best part of parking. Ella tried to play slides too, but she had more fun running around and peeking up at Mommy.

We can't wait until we can go back!

Happenings

Ella and I have been pretty busy toddlers lately. I mean, with Ella learning to drive, (although I'm not sure Mommy and Daddy should encourage driving like this),

and with me trying to convince Ella to pull me around in my block wagon,

we haven't had much time to do anything else. At least we've still been able to blow bubbles.

Imagine what a bummer it'd be if we couldn't!

Car

I'm ready for my license!

I just need to work on getting out...

but that's not on the road test, right? Clearly, we should send Mommy and Daddy to charity auctions more often. That is, when Daddy's not too busy making boys club forts with Coopy.

Yay Daddy!

Today is Daddy's graduation day, and while we're not completely sure what that means, we did get cake for breakfast.

Can Daddy graduate every day?

Congratulations Dad! We're so proud of you!

Chalk

Me and Coopy, we're pretty much experts on all the greatest outdoor toys, like bubbles and bubble wands and bubble machines. They're all pretty great. Anyway, today we discovered an equally amazing outdoor toy...chalk! It's great! Coopy thought it was tasty...

I was less than impressed.

BUT, drawing with chalk is amazing and mega super fun, especially when I get to dig through all the colors.

Want to know what else is awesome about outside toys? Watching Caddie and Biata play.

Puppies can be so silly sometimes.

Rollin' rollin' rollin'

Summer Olympics 2028 here I come!
