This weekend Eric was in St. Louis at a bachelor party with some of his college friends, so my parents came up to keep Archer and I company. As you can see, Grandpa Jim made Archer a mini-putter of his own (I think it's nicer than my putter, which has incidentally gone missing from my bag). We had a ton of fun watching Archer try to figure out how to hold the club. In the end, he had more fun "Gramma Golfing" and throwing the ball and chasing it down.
We've been enjoying the back yard a ton now that it appears that Spring is going to stick around for a while. Eric and Archer play football a lot... Archer loves to yell "touchdown"... we're still working on learning the "Ickey Shuffle" :)
Otherwise, Archer is talking like crazy and learning new words and phrases every day. Here are a few of our favorites:
"Uh oh, book fall down, go boom, bye-bye" - said after he pushed
his book over the back of the sofa.
"Good Stuff" - his new favorite thing to say when eating something yummy.
"Clifford Dog, Clifford Dog, Clifford Dog" - he LOVES this book
(thank you Auntie Nicole). Funniest thing... the first time he said it I swore he was saying "Kung Fu Duck".
I'm heading to Chicago this weekend to see my girlfiends -- yippee! Hope you're all enjoying the beautiful weather. Archer's at such a fun age right now... I wish you could all see him in person. We love visitors, so let us know if any of you would like to make a visit Up North this summer! Take care everyone!
