Father's day

For Father's day, I took Daddy and Mommy on a walk up to Brainard Lake. He carried me on his back in the baby carrier since I take too long when I walk. I like to play in the water that runs along the road, and in the mud too, and he says it would take us 30 years to get to the lake if he let me walk the entire way. But that's ok, I like riding on his back.
At the lake, my friend Dylan and I threw rocks into the water, and splashed and got our feet wet. We had lots of fun. We had a picnic. I know what a picnic is, and I can say it too, so it's even more fun. And the best part is, I got to skip my nap!

I love being outside. I think Daddy does too, he seems to get grumpy if he's been inside too long. I used to cry if Daddy didn't take me with him every time he went outside, but now that I'm a big boy, I don't cry every time. Just most of the time. Sometimes I lay face down on the floor and cry, just so that he knows how important it is to me. I have just started to do this, but so far it doesn't seem to help me get what I want. It just makes Mommy sigh really loud.
