a birthday and tube celebration

Dad and Mom let me roam the trail after being in the carrier all day. I was a good hiker: no crying just a lot of leave picking and running.
Dad and I in front of "high falls". Mom reminded dad that I am not suppose to get water in my ears, so we didn't get to play long, but I love the water.


Dad helped me get the leaves out of my mouth when I took a spill. I guess I was running to fast!
I was introduced to "leaves" on our trip. We don't have very many trees where I live so it was fun to fun through them, pick them up and give them to mom and dad.

A family photo. A lady told us that you don't get many family photos at this age ( I wonder if she knew it was a birthday weekend for mom and dad) so we opted to get one.

I had surgery this past week to get tubes and mom and dad had birthdays so we combined the special events and went to the mountains. I didn't shed any tears, I was told that I was the best patient! I got a soccer ball and a trip to the mountains. Surgery isn't too bad. Uncle Art is visit ing this weekend so look for some pics of us coming soon!
