Happy Birthday Grammie and Great-Grandpa Young!
Today is our Grammie Peterson's birthday. That makes it a really special day because she is a really special grandma. We love going over to Grammie's house like we did yesterday where she takes us to the playground, let's us watch the Disney channel and has a big tub of animal crackers always waiting in her pantry. So, with lots of love, we say...
It is also our Great-Grandpa Young's 87th birthday today! We love going to see Grandpa Young, especially when we can visit at the lake and eat his yummy ribs! Love you Grandpa!

Our Labor Day Weekend
We did some fun things over Labor Day weekend that I wanted to share with you...
On Friday night, Mom, Dad, Teddy and I went to the Festival of Balloons in Dansville, NY. It was a beautiful evening to watch all the hot air balloons lift off and float south. We watched the balloons and had yummy, greasy fair food for dinner. I was finally big enough to try out the inflatable jumping ride!!
On Monday, we decided to go on another little adventure. We took Daddy to one of our favorite places, the Farmland Animal Park. Mom, Teddy and I had been there before, but this was Daddy's first time. We took him all around and showed him all the different animals. I showed him how I like to play in the big sandbox, and Teddy did his best cowboy impression on the rocking horse. It was a fun morning to share as a family!

The Month of August
I guess I have to just write about the whole month of August since it has quickly passed by with no blog postings. I can't even remember all the things I did this month. Good thing I have some photos to remind me!
Once we got back from our trip to the Adirondacks, we scheduled a big celebration dinner at Papa Peters house. Papa's birthday passed while we were gone, but we didn't want that to keep us from celebrating with him. My Uncle Joe, Aunt Shel, cousins Cohen and Cooper and Gram Gram Peters were all there. The best parts were playing in Papa's yard with my cousins and eating ice cream cake!
We've been enjoying our new playground. Our favorite thing to do is swing. I can use the big boy swing now and I love it! I always want an "underdog" or to "go higher"! Daddy can push us and swing with us at the same time!
There were a few really hot days this month. To escape the heat, we would go up to "the lake", my Great-Grandpa and Grandma Young's cottage on Demons Pond. I love it there. I particularly like to wade around in the water and throw big rocks, watch them splash and then try to find them again. This was a favorite rock of mine. It is a square and therefore easy to find on the bottom.
We always have good food at the lake too. Great-Grandpa Young makes the best sweet corn because he cooks it for just the right amount of time. The kernels just burst in your mouth! Teddy was loving his piece of corn!!
Around mid-month, we took a trip up to Aunt Jane & Uncle Gary's camp. It was a weekend of fun with Grammie Peterson there, and Uncle George, Aunt Lou Lou and the girls. Even their cousins Daniel and Nicholas were there. Mom and Dad took me and Teddy for a little boat ride around the pond, and Uncle Gary put up the same ol' swingset that Mom, Aunt Amy and Aunt Amanda all played on when they were little. They love when we come up to their camp and do everything to make it a safe and fun place for us to stay!
The town was having their Community Days and Mom, Dad, Grammie, me and Teddy all went to catch the parade. There were fire trucks and old cars, and some of the float threw candy!
Speaking of Great-Grandparents, I've got too of the best around! We had a fantastic Sunday dinner at the lake that weekend and stayed long enough to get our jammies on there. I cuddled with both Grandma and Grandpa Young. Teddy was as content as could be sitting on Grandpa's lap with his blankie and his thumb.
This last weekend of August was a "boy's weekend" here at our house. That is because Mom was gone off to see some friends for the weekend, and it was just Daddy, me and Teddy here to fend for ourselves. We had lots of fun doing "boy" things, but we were all glad to see Mom when she came home.

I went swimming with Daddy in the pond. I'm still not so sure about water when I can't put my feet down, but Daddy made it better.

We spent one Saturday this month in the Syracuse area. First we went to the Summerville Farm to celebrate Mr. & Mrs. Summerville's 50th wedding anniversary. I've been wanting to go to the farm for so long! It was just as wonderful as I expected. I loved to see the baby calf and the big tractors. I even got to ride in one! After the farm, we went to a graduation party for Mom's cousin's twin daugters. We got to see lots of family that we don't see often enough. One of them was my Mom's Great Aunt Arlene. Aunt Arlene is really special because she is the last sister of 15 siblings of my Great-Grandma Gertie, my Mom's beloved grandmother.

Adirondacks 2009
We are back from our vacation in the Adirondacks and we had a FANTASTIC week!! Just like last year, we stayed at Holiday Shores just outside Eagle Bay on Fourth Lake. We made lots of wonderful memories this year, and would like to share a few with my photo slideshow!

Cousin Time!!
Hi friends and family! As you probably know, I have lots of cousins. On my Daddy's side, there are four grandsons. There is me and Teddy, and then my Aunt Shel & Uncle Joe have two boys, Cohen and Cooper. We are all blonde and super cute!! We have gotten to spend a lot of time together this summer just being boys!
Here we are at Great-Grandpa & Grandma Young's cottage over 4th of July weekend. Our moms dressed us all alike. Kind of silly, but everyone sure thought we were cute!
This is our second cousin Dawson. He is my Daddy's cousin Brett's son. He is 9 months old now, and the way he is growing, he is likely to be bigger than all of us!!
We got to have a lot of cousin time during a visit to Aunt Shel & Uncle Joe's house last week. We spent a couple of days there and got to play outside in their new pool, take walks to the playground, and even go see the train in town!
Nothing like a little cousin pile up on Aunt Shel very early in the morning!!!
Choo-Choo! Riding the Arcade and Attica train!
Cohen & I were co-engineers of the train! He worked the engine and I steered.
Peek-a-baby!
Apparently there is not enough room for both of them to fit out the window, but they sure did try!
Fun in the sandbox!

We got even more time together this weekend when we went to Papa's house. Papa showed us how to pick blackberries and we got to eat fresh veggies out of his garden!
My favorite veggie from Papa's garden was a huge zucchini that I brought home. I call him "Giant Pickle" just like in my Veggie Tales movie about Dave and the Giant Pickle. The Giant Pickle has gone out to the playground with me, watched movies and even took a bath with me!

On a Walk
We like to take walks as a family when the weather is nice. Usually Daddy will get home, we'll eat some dinner, and then head out for a walk. We mainly do it for Delia and Blossom, but Daddy always makes sure there is a playground en route for me and Teddy. These are some photos from one of our walks last week. I love to run and this was the perfect place to do it!!
