I Am Obnoxious!!!

Yoo Hoo!! Mr. Elephant Where Are You???

Where Did He Go???

I have been a very busy boy this weekend. Mommy has decided that I am obnoxious about the vacuum cleaner. I insist that we vacuum all day long and throw tantrums when we don't!!! Mommy has decided that she would rather let me have tantrums than vacuum from dawn to dust. She will be singing a different tune in a few years when I refuse to do anything to help around here.

I got to see Grandpa Jim and Grandma Dale this weekend!! They came to see me. I put them in my house out back. I was nice though because I didn't shut the windows on them. They finally managed to escape when I went to try to get Mommy and put her in the house too. (Mommy refused to get put into the "Buddy House" she claims to be a tent person and not a house person) Anyway, I was exhausted from vacuuming and showing off for Grandpa Jim and Grandma Dale, Mommy turned her back on me for two whole minutes (Worry not, Grandma Dale had her eyes on me) and I laid face down on the living room floor and passed out cold. Mommy had to pry the "nanny" (banana---Duh! Sommer!) out of my hand and carry me off to my bed. Mommy said she should have taken a picture of me passed out with my nanny but she didn't think of it at the time. Apparently I am having the opposite problem than I had a few weeks ago. I woke up from my nap and Grandpa Jim and Grandma Dale were gone!! People are now disappearing while I sleep!! Auntie Kay (a/k/a Key) came by to see me. I showed her my vacuuming skills. Mommy wouldn't plug it in for me though because she was tired of hearing it.

Anyway, I got to see Aunt Patty and My Jessica today. I even called Aunt Patty Pat!! I helped Jessica clean but I think that she is starting to think like Mommy---that I am more of a nuisance than a helper. Oh well!!

Mommy, Daddy and me went to the Zoo this afternoon because they thought it would be the perfect day to go to the Zoo since it was so nice out. The plan was good but it was a little hotter than they thought. There weren't very many animals out today. Mommy says we need to make the Zoo a morning deal because they all seem to be out in the mornings and all the food machines are full of treats for me to give to the animals. I was kind of disappointed because the elephants were in their house so I couldn't see them that well. I did remember the soda machine over by the elephants!! Daddy wanted to get me some snacks from the vendor but I ran off and went to the soda machine instead!! Mommy was kind enough to put money in the machine for me and told me what button to push to get my orange pop. After I got my soda out of the machine, I went with Daddy to check out the food guy. Daddy got us a corn dog and a funnel cake!!! Yummy!!!

Well that is all for now. I have to get plenty of rest because I have a busy week coming up!!!
