Our local communications company had another free carnival this weekend. Two months ago, I had to carry CJ up the ladder and ride down with him. He wasn't afraid, he just wasn't strong enough. Now, he climbed the ladder like a monkey. He was a little slower the 4th time in a row up the ladder however.

CJ's big weekend.
Pic #1 - We went to the Ethnic Enrichment festival in Swope park. Booths were setup from about 50 countries (including Ukraine). He now has a wolf head hat and tail. It was from either Norway or Sweden. I wouldn't have wanted to wear it on a 90 degree day.
Pic #2 - Proving that mustard is not just a condiment - it works as an adhesive as well.
Pic #3, 4, 5,6 - At the last Royals game. He loves Sluggerrrr now, and had to give him a hug. He likes to hang out behind the fountains in right field.
Pic #7 - Battle scars. We went to the dog park. The trails have more rocks than I remembered. Of course he has two speeds (full blast and stop). At one point he fell and had a small cut. It is hard to tell in the picture, but he smeared it all over his face like war paint. It slowed him down for a couple of minutes, but not for long.

Grandma and Grandpa Doneth stopped by to see CJ last weekend.
Pic #1 - Just chilling out
Pic #2 - I wonder how many cookies he got while we were not looking.
Pic #3 - Relaxing part I.
Pic #4 - Relaxing part II.
Pic #5 - The wonders of cell phones

CJ's new race car bed. After seeing one at a store, I started looking at them on e-bay. CJ saw the pictures on the computer and he went nuts.
As you can tell - he really likes it. See pic #4 where he is checking out the tires. The downside is that it has messed up mommy's barn yard theme for the room.
