August

At the beginning of August, KP decided it was time to run away from home. :)





He didn't get very far.





We spent most of the summer trying to avoid the mosquitos and the heat at the spraygrounds in Richardson.





KP always has a great time.





We also went back to G-daddy's to play on the tractor some more.





G-daddy was nice enough to share his tractor, too. :)





KP is learning the difference between left and right. :)





Cruising





Whew





So, one day, we went to Central Market to play on the playground. While we were there, KP wanted to go up into the fort and down the slides. I found this little lilly pad type setup, and took a minute to show him how to go up them. Within about 5 minutes, he was scaling the lilly pads in less than 10 seconds, running over to the slide, going down the slide, and then running back to do it all over again.





Under the fort





Back to G-Daddy's. KP has now gotten very good at driving his tractor, and very bossy, too. :)





Pit stop.





KP conned Uncle Wowie into giving him a ride on the big tractor





Whew. This is hard work!





KP and G-ma. :)





Daddy and KP





KP and Mimi

KP woke up and decided that he wanted chips and salsa for breakfast. No joke. He had me open the refrigerator, pointed at the salsa, and said "chips please".





Toward the end of the month, KP and Daddy went to the zoo. Our zoo membership is another thing that has saved us this summer with keeping KP occupied.





Sliding. :)





KP has also been working on his gymnastics. It's funny to think that he was a bit unsure on his feet at this time last year.
