Slip N Slide

Boy am I POOPED!

How many people does it take to give Lawson a haircut?

While on my trip to NY, Mommy and Daddy decided I needed a haircut. Who better to take on the task than my second cousin Raelene! She is a hairdresser by profession and a wizard with the scissors. Mommy was amazed how fast and precise she cut my hair! It took a lot of persuading, Tootsie Roll Pops, peanut butter treats and funny faces...but they got the job done. It brought all of the family out, but they got the job done!

Fountain of Youth

I love water and have discovered water fountains! Daddy and Mommy took me to the park in Youngstown and we found this nostalgic fountain. My Nana and Daddy drank from this same fountain when they were little!

The Not So Happy Fourth of July

Well, the time has finally arrived! I had my first temper tantrum! It was inevitable as my Terrible Two's are approaching! We visited my Great Aunt's home on Lake Ontario for the Fourth of July. Mommy and Daddy were so excited to hang out by the lake and visit with family. I had a ball throwing rocks in the lake, but was insistent on swimming after I saw my cousins going for a dip! Daddy wouldn't let me and I was fit to be tied! So, I had a melt down and embarrassed my parents. I knew that would show them! I don't know what the big deal was! What was so wrong with me wanting to jump off the rocks and go for a swim! Geez!

Re-enactment at Fort Niagara

I was in awe of the cannons exploding!

We were rooting for the red jackets!

Mommy kept laughing at this man who forgot to put his knickers on! Look closely! Grose!

My First Vacation

Grandma and I had fun watering the flowers.

I loved Ryan and Brandon's Radio Flyer. The John Deere was an added bonus!

Grandpa and Daddy started me in Archery lessons!

Daddy and I taking a stroll in his hometown of Youngstown!

We got to visit the church where Daddy, Nana, Uncle Andy and Uncle Stu were baptized! What a beautiful church! Mommy liked the sign that said, "Lift Your Hearts Up".

Da Plane! Da Plane!

On our way to New York to see where Daddy grew up and visit Grandma and Grandpa Runge!

Cool! I love riding in the airplane!

What was that noise?!?!?!?

All the excitement makes for two sleepy boys!
