Visiting another relative

On Sunday we had lunch at Cracker Barrel with a relative of mine who has been helping daddy out with genealogy. I was scared at first when mommy and daddy were trying to get me to call her Dr. Mary Ann, but then I found out that she's not a medical doctor, but does have a Ph.D. and taught at a college in Pennsylvania for many years. Both her and my grandpa Fosko knew each other as kids.

Genealogy Trip to Wilkes Barre


Friday afternoon after daycare we drove up to Scranton, PA. No more pack and play for me; I got to sleep in my very own inflatable toddler bed!


Saturday morning we went to the Luzerne County Historical Society, and I drew while mommy and daddy looked through some old books. Then they took me to the playground that my daddy played on when he visited his grandmother Gazinski's house. Of course the playground equipment is a lot newer. After lunch while I took a nap with mommy, my dad had fun walking through a cemetery looking for some graves. Strange way to have fun, I'd rather play on the swing and play with my trains and books.

Then we went to the church that my great-great-grandaunt went to. There's even a stained glass window in memory of one of her brothers.

Then we went to my great-aunt's house, and I met my second cousin Ava. Here I am with Ava, my mommy and Ava's mommy. She was born last December.

College Park Air Museum


Today I went on my first field trip, and I'm not quite 2 1/2! We went to the Air Museum in College Park. We rode the yellow school bus, and when we got there we made airplanes, and a sign. In the picture is also a bean plant that I planted from seeds. Silly daddy, he thought we were going to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum! Though I said I took a nap, the busy day must have worn me out, because this is how mommy and daddy found me at 6:25, fast asleep with my books!

Trip to Columbia






Today we went to Play Wise Kids in Columbia. I played in the sand, went on a tank and a fire engine. Boy, did I have fun! I also got to play with someone who will be 3 in August, and mommy got to tell them about Gymboree, which has birthday parties. Mommy sat in a massage chair which she very much enjoyed. Also, I almost got to meet my fourth cousin once removed too. They live close to where we were, but they weren't home.

presents for my Shaw cousins

Mommy went to the Gymboree store and bought clothes for my cousins and I. I got to wear my cute new outfit on Saturday. Sorry, no pictures. We also dropped off at Abbey's a dress for her and clothes for Reagan and Harrison, who they will see next week. We go out after they get back.

Father's Day

We don't have any pictures, but on Friday I made a nice card at school (with some help) for daddy for Father's Day. He got a baloon and chocolate covered strawberries. We called my grandpa, but they were at church. Later we saw my cousin Abbey at Pop's house. See Abbey's blog for the pictures.

Moving again


No, mommy and daddy aren't moving again, but my daycare is. We had a party, with a sprinkler, and rides. Here I am in my swimming trunks and daddy's favorite shirt. Next week I go to our new site, which will have the same teachers, and many of my same classmates. The daycare had to move because they're putting a new highway in called the ICC. It's been on the drawing books since the 1960's, and it should be done sometime in 2011. Who knows, it's been in the planning stages since before I was born, let's see if it's finished by the time I learn how to drive!

Mommy's Birthday

Today Mommy dropped me off at school so that she can have a day to herself. She went to get a massage, (Boy did she need it!)manicure, and pedicure. When I saw her when I got home with daddy she looked so relaxed. Then Time came over to babysit me while daddy took mommy to dinner at Ricciuti’s in Olney, MD. They really enjoyed it. I wish I could have gone too, but I did have a lot of fun with Tim too.

Family Birthday Celebration


Tonight Pops, Gams, Aunt Amy, Daddy and I took Mommy out to dinner to celebrate her Birthday. We went to Agios at the Pookeshill Marriott in Bethesda. It was fun seeing everyone and celebrating a second time with mommy. I especially liked the part where Mommy got a piece of cake with a candle on it and I helped her blow it out. Best of all, mommy let me eat the cake!!!! Yum I love chocolate!!!

Weekend Get Away






Mommy and Daddy took me to the beach for the weekend to help celebrate Mommy's birthday. We arrived at my great grandmother's Condo at the Carousel Friday night. Saturday we went to Cottage Cafe in Bethany Beach, DE for breakfast. Then we went to the Outlets in Rehobeth Beach, DE. We shopped at the Gymboree Outlet store and the Stride Right outlet store. After getting back from the outlets, we went by Pops Beach House to take more pictures(one of the pictures is of the grandchildren bedroom) and then we went back to the Carousel to have lunch. Mommy and Daddy decided to have a Lava Flow, which is the drink they had in Hawaii while on their Honeymoon almost 7 years ago. i even got to go on the rides again at the Carousel. It was a fun weekend and cannot wait to go back.

My Uncle did it!

My uncle Corey won the primary for his district of South Dakota! Now it's on to the November general election! We're so proud of you, Corey! (And I guess you did it 'with half a brain tied behind your back' since Karen was the other half of the brains!
