The Couch!

Do you see something different in this picture?  Mommy and daddy cleaned the carpet today.  And they moved all the furniture off of it.  Of course, that means that Ferb and I had to move with the couch as well.  It gave us a slightly different perspective on the world, I think.  We watched mommy and daddy closely as they cleaned the carpet and made sure that they put the furniture back where it belongs.

Is it almost Bedtime?

I'm a big fan of bedtime.  Sometimes I even decide to go to bed before mommy and daddy.

I just curl up in the pillows with my caterpillar and go to sleep.  Unfortunately, when mommy and daddy come to bed, they make me move out of my comfy little nest.  Some nonsense about how I'm not allowed to sleep on their pillows.  I don't understand -- I got here first.  

Fireworks?

I don't get it.  This year we were at my Aunt Heather and Uncle Mark's house and we could see fireworks from their lawn.  Why do you people insist on shooting things up in the air that make noise and flash bright lights? This was my first year being around fireworks and I've decided I don't like them.  I don't like loud noises and I don't like bright lights.  I'll pass on future 4th of July celebrations.

Except for the food.  I like hamburgers and hot dogs.

Hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend!

My weekend

I had a fun -- but tiring -- weekend.  Mommy, daddy, and I went to visit Grandma Nancy, Grandpa Mike, Aunt Heather, Uncle Mark, Aunt Sara, and Uncle John in Pittsburgh!  I also got to visit with all my doggy cousins. 

The best day of the weekend was Sunday -- I got to go for a ride on my Grandpa Mike's boat!  I put on my life jacket and shades and we set off for a fun ride.

My cousins, Jacob and Sterling, had the front of the boat with my Aunt Heather and Uncle Mark.

And Daddy and I sat near Grandpa to help him navigate.

 Eventually, though, I found a Baxter-sized seat of my own near the back of the boat.

After a while, we all started getting a little sleepy, though.  Sterling was the first to fall asleep.

 I found a place underneath a seat and closed my eyes for a little nap, too.

All in all, a fun (and relaxing) ride on Grandpa Mike's boat!  Maybe next time Ferb can come along!
