In the morning, Grandma and Grandpa’s friends, Gene and Maureen, came by to say “hi.” I showed them my cars and the new contraption Uncle Mike and I were working on (a catapult!).
Then we went to a restaurant in White River Junction, VT to officially celebrate Grandma and Grandpa’s 50th wedding anniversary. And after, we got to see a train leave the station!
We visited Sugarbush Farm yesterday in Woodstock, VT. Everyone else enjoyed the animals, and the cheese and maple syrup tasting, but I was pretty unimpressed…until I found the sandbox with trucks!
Afterwards, we went for ice cream (I ordered the “baby” size, which was about the size of an actual 6 pound baby) and I made Tinkertoy contraptions with Uncle Mike. Then it was time to wind down with some good ol’ reliable Tayo videos on Mommy’s phone. A fun day!
We went back to the beach! This time, I wasn’t as interested in going in the water. But Grandpa showed me how to use my fishing reel on his boat and I played with my cars in the sand. Uncle Mike and Auntie Sarah joined us, too, and Uncle Mike pretended to be a sea monster.
Also, we went out to eat for breakfast and dinner. Not only was I amazingly well-behaved, but I also nibbled on some fruit, Grandma’s pickles, Mommy’s home fries, and Auntie Sarah’s maple syrup. Plus, I succeeded in sucking on a straw for the very first time! I’m not totally sure how I did that, but I’ll work on it again today.
Last night, Uncle Mike and Auntie Sarah babysat me while Mom and Dad went out for a birthday dinner. So, as a token of my appreciation, I gave them a Dexter Ludwig Original!
Yesterday was my 2nd birthday celebration! Grandma, Grandpa, Nana and Papa all came out to visit. And Uncle Mike, Auntie Sarah, and of course, Mom, Dad and Chubs were there, too.
First, we had brunch at Marie Callender’s, my favorite restaurant to happily scream in. Then we went home to open presents and eat sandwiches and cake! (Well, everyone else ate sandwiches and cake. I ate prunes!)
Thank you, everyone, for the gifts and for celebrating with me!
Yesterday, we went to the park with Uncle Mike and Auntie Sarah. We all ate yummy food, I threw rocks and leaves all over the place, and I touched a fountain for the first time!
