Earlier this summer we went to the Barker family reunion (Grandpa Richardson's side) at Ft. Stevens in Astoria. We had a lot of fun playing on the beach and checking out the ship wreck. Then we went back to the picnic area and I played with all my cousins while Grandpa Richardson ran the auction for the adults.
We were almost ready to leave and I decided to drink a cup of sand. NOT a good idea! It was really yucky and I just looked at Mommy with a horrified expression on my face. But then everyone started laughing so I turned into a goofball running around in circles and laughing with sand oozing down my face. Daddy finally helped me wash it all out (or drink it actually, I didn't understand the concept of spitting) and then we drove home.

Happy Birthday to Me
I turned 2 on July 6th and I am such a big girl now. I'm able to say so many words and starting to put small sentences together. We had a birthday party at my house with friends and family and I got so many nice presents. Here's the pictures from the party (sorry for the weird colors, our camera got stuck in some wacky setting)...

Our First Garden
We put in our first garden this year and it has been so much fun. I helped plant everything and love picking the vegetables when they get ripe (and sometimes when they're not so ripe). Here's a video of me planting the potatoes and some pictures from planting and harvest.

Hawaii!
In May we went on our family vacation to Oahu. It was a really long plane ride but I was a good girl and took a nap, watched the DVD player, and played with my toys. We stayed in an awesome hotel that had fun pools, a lagoon, and animals all around. My favorite part was the penguins, we went to visit them everyday.
Mostly we played at the hotel, but we also drove to the North Shore one day and went to the Sea Life Park. We also visited our old neighbors who moved to Oahu last summer. I had so much fun playing with Blake and Sami.
We only went to the beach a little bit. I liked playing in the sand, but didn't really like to walk on it. It was too weird and kept moving under my feet. I didn't really like the ocean either because it was so cold. I preferred the pool (although it was a little cold too) with my floaty.

Catching Up...February - May
Well I'm finally almost caught up, but I realized I haven't shared any monthly pictures and milestones with you since February, oops! I'm really turning into a big kid and talking like crazy, feeding myself without too much spilling, and just yesterday learned how to put my shoes on. I can say over 200 words and talk in sentences. The words aren't always in the right order, but I get them all out.
We've done lots of fun things the last few months as you'll see in the pictures. I took a gymnastics class and learned how to hang on the bar and walk on the balance beam. Mostly I just liked to climb on the bleachers though. I love playing with kids and talk about Caden, Nana, and Kaila all the time. I love going to Omsi, Children's Museum, the zoo, and playdates with friends. I also love anything outside - helping in the yard, washing the car, and most of all chasing kids around the neighborhood. I'm so excited for summer!
Enjoy the pics...
