Oh Yeah---The Penitentiary Egg Hunt!!

Yo Easter Bunny Are You In There??

(Note to Zack: I hope you got all those eggs down at your feet. If you didn't you are one goofy Buddy!!)

I forgot to tell everyone. I cleaned up at the Penitentiary Egg Hunt. I got 30 something eggs filled with CANDY!! The Warden told Daddy that I got them all by myself but Mommy is skeptical. I think my performance in the practice sessions may be shaking Mommy's confidence in my fetching ability.

The Easter Miracle!!!

Daddy and Me On Our Way to Church!!

The Great Easter Egg Hunt!!!

Mommy, Daddy and Me went to spend Easter with Grandma Dale. I like going to Grandma's because she lets me do all the things that I know Grandpa Jim wouldn't approve of. Daddy thought he was smart by putting a baby lock on the cabinet door to keep me away from all the flash lights and stuff. I pulled on the door so hard the lock snapped in half. That ought to teach Daddy!!!

Anyway, the Easter Bunny found me at Grandma's house. I got to search for eggs all over the house and the Easter Bunny left me TWO EASTER BASKETS!!! I got a TON of candy, a new "boom box", an Easter Thomas train, a new Thomas movie, a new Elmo DVD and lots of little toys. The Easter Bunny even left baskets for Grandma, Daddy and Mommy. That Easter Bunny sure is thoughtful. I don't remember Santa leaving anything for them at Christmas. Hmmmm....Maybe they were bad!!

Now for the miracle! I made it completely through a very long Church service!! That's right, I sure did. Nobody even bothered to give me a dirty look because I was a perfect angel through out the service. Mommy was extremely proud of me because she thought I was going to be my typical bad boy self and we would end up getting booted from the cry room. Hurrah for me!!! See I can be good!!! Mommy bragged on me to Grandma and Daddy when we caught up with them after the service. They were both very proud of me too!!! I also got to see Mr. Larry at Church. We then went back to Grandma's but I was fast asleep by the time we got back to Grandma's house. I think Oscar nipped my finger when I was sleeping. I woke up crying saying "my finger" and Oscar was sitting in the hallway looking guilty when Mommy got back there. No big deal though because Oscar is my buddy.

After I woke up from my nap we went to see Aunt Patty, Uncle Fester, and Ryan. Aunt Patty's Mommy and brother Don were there too. "Mo" was there (he's Aunt Patty's Mommy's dog) Uncle Fester says that Mo and Rufus both work out at the same gym because they are both fatties! Anway, The Easter Bunny stopped by their house and left me a bunch of eggs, some Reese's Pieces Candy, "Dude Da Bunny" and a big bouncy toy. That Easter Bunny sure knows everything because he knew I was going to their house for dinner and he must have left me extra eggs because I was so good in Church. Aunt Patty made me a yummy dinner. I didn't care much for the ham though so Uncle Fester taught me to make Dexter "speak" for ham. I gave him some Macaroni and Cheese too. I tried to give him corn but nobody would let me. Oh well!!!

Well that was my Easter! I hope yours was "Hoppy"!!! Oh yeah, forgive the pictures, Mommy sure likes to forget the camera lately!

P.S. Where's Joey???

The Great Egg Hunt--Kind Of!!!

I think I need a new shovel!!!

Okay, so maybe snow isn't so bad!!!

Howdy Howdy Everyone!!! It has been a very interesting past few weeks. First it was cold, then it was hot, then it snowed, then it was hot, and now its rainy! I was surprised to see the snow. I kept saying "pretty snow" but when Daddy took me outside to go to the Baby Penitentiary I wasn't happy at all about having the snow on me. I kept saying "rain off" until Daddy brushed it off of me. I wasn't too happy at the Baby Penitentiary when the Wardens made us go outside to investigate it either. As you can tell though, I got over it. I think it had something to do with Mommy throwing snowballs. No, it wasn't funny at all when she threw one on my shoe!! I was rather hilarious to see the snow balls on the windows though!!!


Anyway, yesterday I went to the allergist to get tested. Mommy and Daddy were exceptionally proud of me. I finally stood on the meat scale (scale) to get my weight taken, I stood up like a big boy without crying so they could see how big I am and I let them scratch my back a billion times to see what I might be allergic to. I did all of that without crying!!! Mommy and Daddy were very very proud of their big boy!!! Unfortunately, my big boy moment didn't last because when the doctor used the stethoscope on me I went ballistic!!! Stethoscopes can be very very dangerous!!! In any event, I passed my tests with flying colors and I got a new big boy puffer tube!! Since I had such a traumatic morning I got to go spend the day with Aunt Kay and Uncle Carl. I had a blast but I think they were happy when it was time for me to go home---they were awfully tired!!!


I got a boo-boo on my eye lid! I slipped in the tub while I was "practicing" my swimming and hurt my "head". Apparently the bathtub crayon holder caught me near my eye. I told Mommy to kiss my head and she did. Then she saw that it was really my eyelid. Can you believe that she didn't tell me that my eyelid was bleeding?? Mommy fixed me all up and I was better in no time. She really thought that I was going to be upset for a long time but I had to "suck it up" really quickly because there was some pretty loud "tunder" and it made the lights go out for a second. I jumped straight out of the bath tub and right into Mommy's arms. I kept telling the tunder to "shut it" but it didn't work! Anyway, my eye is okay but it I have a scrape and it is a little black and blue on the eye lid.


I am happy to report that I am going through a hitting stage! I am learning this from my buddies at school! Mommy feels sorry for the two girls in my cell block because Mommy says that there are way too many boys versus girls which makes us all mean!! Today Daddy witnessed Carter getting pushed off the table by Jake while three other boys were in a tussle. Carter fell and hit his head really hard on the ground. The Wardens were busy breaking up tussles and helping Carter so Daddy had to go find the Head Warden to get an ice pack for Carter. When Daddy told her what happens she referred to my cell block as "Savages." Yes we are, thank you!!

Now to the eggs...Tomorrow is the Great Easter Egg Hunt at the Baby Penitentiary. Mommy thought that since I tend to be a little wimpy and a little a.d.d. I might need to practice the egg hunting thingy to refresh my memory of last year so that I can get some eggs tomorrow. Good plan Mommy but you may have shown me too much. On the first run I quickly found all the eggs Mommy hid from me. On the second run I remembered "Emmy Ms" were in the eggs so I had to stop and open every egg to get the "Emmy Ms" and discard the egg. This slowed my speed way down and Mommy told me that if I wanted to get any "Emmy Ms" the Baby Penitentiary tomorrow I am going to have to get a lot of eggs and put them in my bucket and then open last. So on the third run I threw the bucket down and got as many eggs as I could carry and tried to open them all in one spot. Maybe I will take Mommy's advice and put the eggs in the bucket and open them all after the egg hunt. Anyway, Mommy did tell me that I have to make sure that I make sure the girls get some eggs at the hunt tomorrow and to help them if necessary.


P.S. Dude--Are there any other super tall ladders you want to let me climb up?? Bad babysitter...bad!!
