This is my seventh diary book. I am now nearly two and a half and a social animal. I like to talk, make jokes, tell my Daddy what to do and when he is wrong, and I remember everything.


Friday, June 9th, 2000 (2 years, 23 weeks, 2 days): We had a big BBQ at the house for Daddy's soccer team. It was great fun as we got to use my play space. It is finally done so you can kick and throw balls down there and even ride my tricycle (except I cannot quite reach the pedals yet).

Friday, June 16th, 2000 (2 years, 24 weeks, 2 days): Daddy and Mommy picked me up early from school today and we drove to Pennsylvania to see my Granddad at Great Aunt Jenice's house. It was a long ride but I had fun. Much to my parents' frustrations, I did not fall asleep until we were 15 minutes from the house!

Saturday, June 17th, 2000 (2 years, 24 weeks, 3 days): I spent most of the day playing with Granddad and Aunt Jenice. Mommy, Aunt Jenice and I went to a park to feed ducks and walk but Mommy was not feeling well so we did not do a lot. I think Mommy was ill because she did not get to see me one night this week (she got stuck in Washington DC and had to take an all-night train to get back to Boston).

Sunday, June 18th, 2000 (2 years, 24 weeks, 4 days): Mommy felt much better today. We had to say good-bye to Granddad and Aunt Jenice but on our way home we went to a crayon factory. It was great fun. I played with Crayola crayons and paints and clay and did lots of crafts. I recommend it to any toddlers who are in the Eastern Pennsylvania area.

Saturday, July 1st, 2000 (2 years, 26 weeks, 3 days): We had a BBQ with my school friends James and Kevin. They brought their siblings Julia and Eric and we all played with chalk and in my swimming pool.

Sunday, July 2nd, 2000 (2 years, 26 weeks, 4 days): I spent the day with my friends Brandon and Carrie at a place called the Enchanted Forest in Rhode Island. We all went in their car so it was fun. The park had lots of little rides for children my age. I rode on cars, boats, airplanes, a ferris wheel, a merry-go-round and several other rides. When we got home, Daddy, Mommy and I went to a circus that was nearby. There I saw elephants (I even rode one), white tigers, a motorcycle on a wire, people on the trapeze, clowns, and other acts. The only thing that I did not like was the man getting shot out of the cannon -- it was too loud!

Tuesday, July 4th, 2000 (2 years, 26 weeks, 6 days): I got to see Uncle Hib today. He came down from visiting in Vermont and stayed with us. We went out to dinner and got ice cream and later watched fireworks from our house. They began just after I started my bath so I watched them naked!

Saturday, July 8th, 2000 (2 years, 27 weeks, 3 days): I got to meet Uncle John, the last true uncle I had yet to meet. He lives in Taiwan but was over visiting Nanna and Grampa in Vermont so we went up to visit. I got to play with Sabie and Big Al and stay at the lake with Nanna. I also got to meet John's girlfriend Jennifer but she did not speak much english. She could count to ten in Chinese as well as me though. I played croquet with Mommy, Daddy, Nanna and Aunt Jean and had a great time. I also went walking in the lake with Nanna even though it was very cold.

Sunday, July 9th, 2000 (2 years, 27 weeks, 4 days): More fun at the lake. Daddy and Mommy went to Stowe without me so I stayed with Nanna and Aunt Sara at the lake.

Monday, July 10th, 2000 (2 years, 27 weeks, 5 days): Gee, Mommy and Daddy have a tough time without me. They seem to call alot asking about me.

Tuesday, July 11th, 2000 (2 years, 27 weeks, 6 days): I left the lake and the ducks today. We went to Stowe to meet Mom and Dad. We went swimming in a nice pool there and then went on an Alpine slide. I loved it and wanted to go faster but Daddy would not. Next time I want to go by myself. Uncle John and Aunt Jennifer came home with us. Uncle John insisted I take a nap on the way home because I talk all the time in the car.

Friday, July 21st, 2000 (2 years, 29 weeks, 2 days): Daddy picked me up early from school and we went into the city to meet Mommy. Then we went on a boat all around Boston's harbor. I liked the boat. Afterwards, we went to Fannual Hall where I had some chocolate and watched some street performers play musical instruments. I even got Mommy and Daddy to dance with me.

Saturday, July 22st, 2000 (2 years, 29 weeks, 3 days): A working day. Daddy and Mommy were painting things today so I painted also. I did some beautiful pictures with my paint set (a big snake and a small snake) and also some water painting.

Sunday, July 22nd, 2000 (2 years, 29 weeks, 4 days): I went to my friend Julia's birthday party. Brandon and Carrie were there so it was a lot of fun. Afterwards, we went to visit cousing Matthew and his brother Nathan. Nathan was baptized so they had a party at his house. I got to play with their dogs and to see Great Uncle James and Aunt Lucy. Matthew does not talk much but I generally get my way with him.
