Memorial Weekend 2009

Spring greetings to my loyal readers. I wanted to share with you what we did for Memorial Day weekend. We of course traveled to Iowa to see our family. On Friday, we went to DeWitt to have lunch with Grandma Kris and have some play time at the park. Here are a few pics of me on the tire swing, climbing the "rock wall" and teeter tottering with Daddy.Friday night we had dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Otteman's house along with my Grandma and Grandpa Eaton. We had fun sitting outside and playing with bubbles.
Saturday afternoon, we went to Eden Valley to camp with Grandpa Larson. This was my first time actually sleeping over in the cabin. Grandpa Larson got me a camouflage sleeping bag for my birthday so I had to try it out. I even did my treatment while sitting at the picnic table and watching Spongebob on our laptop.We took a walk to the swinging bridge. Once across, we hiked up the cliff and took in the view of the valley. Here are a few pics of our adventure.Sunday afternoon, Mommy went to see Grandma Dorothy while I took my nap. When I woke up, I had a fever and a sore ear. Grandpa Otteman took me to his office and confirmed I had double ear infection. Boy was I cranky. Grandpa took care of me and got some antibiotics and Tylenol. I felt better very quickly with my medications. Mommy was also sick and has yet to recover. I am happy to report that with extra breathing treatments and house arrest, I am 100% better.
The weather has finally started to look up. Mommy and Daddy have been trying to find things for me to do outside. The other day, when it was hot, Mommy gave me a couple buckets of cold water and a paint brush. I had fun "painting" the deck and dumping the water all over myself. I got quite a surprise when it was freezing cold water!!Here are a couple more pics of me on our deck. I felt it was necessary to bring my pillow and blanket out and take a siesta.Well, that's all for now. I continue to attend my classes in Monroe for the summer although not every week. I am off to Philadelphia again for 4th of July weekend to visit my friends at Sesame Place. I can't wait to share my adventures and pictures with you.

Until then,

Luke William
