Ahhhh....the 4th was fantastic!

So, being that it was the 4th of July, we all got together for a picnic....because that's apparently what one does on this particular day. Anyway, so Drayson, Kate and I - and our primary and secondary caregivers - all packed up our toys and tents and some food and headed down to the Green for a little feeding and some drinking, it was grand.

Below is all of us hanging out with Drayon's mom. I totally got prime positioning as Kate leaned on her pink ball and Drayson high-tailed it for the mini-entrance to the elephant tent; he seemed to have a real affinity for the tent for some reason.

As you can see, he just loved the tent.

And to be honest, being that when he was outside of the tent, the only thing he wanted to do was take my toys (bastard!), I was pretty willing to share my tent with him all he liked.

I'm not sure that Kate had been introduced before, but this is Kate. She's cool...she can walk...apparently she thought that crawling was for losers, so she went from sitting one day to just deciding to get up and walk off the next....I hate kids like that.....I'm still working on pulling myself up.

Also, as much as I like Kate: Kate has a problem. We've called the TV show "Intervention" on several occasions, but they haven't returned our calls yet....we just hope when they do call us back, its not too late!

This is towards the end of our picnic. If you look closely at my forehead, you can see that a few days ago I kind of slipped and bumped the hell out of my head....and then cried and cried and cried....let's pretend it never happened, it was embarrassing.

I have two hats on....that's funny to me!
