All kinds of new things...

 Daddy is very good playing, being my "baby."

 Yup.  That's a couple of A's.  And I wrote them.  All by myself.  No help.

 As long as I've got my trusty burp cloth, I can do anything!  Including going down front to the Children's Sermon during church on Sundays!

 Doing my work in my new class at school.

 We went to the baseball game the other night.  Me not likey the chicken.  At all.  I freaked out.  Twice.

 But I did get ice cream in a mini helmet!

 Mom washed out the mini helmet & now it's Bobo's hat!  Silly Bobo!

 Our new school "year" started this week & I wear uniforms now!

I'm THREE!!!!

 They do up our birthdays at school.  We brought cookies & mini cupcakes for afternoon snack!

 And because Mommy believes you have to eat cake on your birthday, she brought home these three little mini cakes.  They were yummy.

 Presents!

 I.  GOT.  A.  TRICYCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Here I am riding up at what will be my elementary school that's super close to our house.

 We went to BounceU last week for Stuart's birthday party.  After making Mommy jump with me for a while, I finally sent her out of the bounce house & bounced all by myself the rest of the time!

 Hitting the ball off the air jet.

 Bouncing with AJ from my class at school.

 Allie Grace, Jorgia & Me...the preschool girls from church!  We had a church picnic last week at a local park.  It was super fun.

 Climbing on the dinos!

 Aunt Heidi came to visit for Mommy's birthday.

 She's loads of fun. Here, I'm showing her how to have a very serious picnic.  :)

 Helping Mommy blow out her birthday candle.

 Last Sunday, I graduated from the nursery to preschool at church.  It's going to be a little hard leaving Miss Barbara in the nursery, but at least we still get to see her through the connecting window!

I decided I like chips & salsa.  I killed about a 1/2 basket of chips myself AND ate my entire dinner.  Mom thinks I'm about to have a growth spurt.

It's my birthday...

 We had my birthday party last week & we had an ice cream theme.  Mommy made these cute cotton candy ice cream cones for the favors!

 Ta-dah!!!!  I'm ready for my audience!

 Mom also made ice cream cone cupcakes!

 Delish.

 This is me.  On sugar.  LOTS of sugar.  :)

 Playing a game of corn hole.

 We borrowed this cool palm tree cooler from some church friends for the bottles of water.  I just liked playing in it after the party!

 Mommy's work had a staff outing at the brand new Nashville Sounds stadium earlier this week.  I had a blast!

 Play ball!

 Started opening some presents last night.  Got some cool books & DVD from Uncle Fred, Aunt Naomi & Cousin Garrett.

 Look what Aunt Mary C & Uncle Mike sent me!!!

 I LOVE IT!!!

 And Daddy even fit (barely)!

"it's my birf-day, I'm 3...it's my birf-day TODAY!!!"

4th of July & Camp Gardner rocks!

 I relax best, on the patio - with a nice jar of bubbles.

"Watch me bounce!  Watch me bounce!"

 Happy 4th of July!

 Mommy brought this fun balloon hat home from working their 4th of July event.

 Mommy got all Pinterest-y & put some 4th of July sprinkles on some ice cream sandwiches for a special treat.  Me likey.

 Ummm...glow sticks?  Yes please!!!  I had so much fun dancing around to the music during the PBS A Capitol Fourth that we watched.  As Daddy said, "interpretive dance, by Ellie Kate."

 Even Bobo liked the glow sticks!

 Playing Mommy's old doll from when she was a little girl.

 Beautiful sunset from our new house.

 The firemen came to visit a couple weeks ago during "Camp Gardner."

 Mommy was so proud that I actually got up in the truck!

 And Mother Goose came to visit...

 Gwamma & Dadpa made me this cool photo album from their visit & our move.  I love looking at it!

 I got my very first princess dress - that lights up! - because I pooped in the potty.  (Mom's note:  whatever it takes, people.)  :)

 I was super worn out the other night & Mom found me like this.

I love bouncing while I watch Super Why!
