Shoots and Fishies

Greetings everyone! What a fun weekend we had! We went to the store TWICE over the weekend and went and saw Tampa Gardner at his black powder shoot. A good time was had by all and I continue to learn new things everyday! Mommy says that if she doesn't want me to know how to do something, she double checks that I am not watching when she does it because after watching her or daddy, I pick up on things quick! I say, "Mom, aren't I supposed to be learning new things, like opening the front door and basement doors myself? Or how to plug things in?" I just don't know what people want from me sometimes! It is so true, life is so complicated sometimes! Mommy and daddy also say that my vocabulary is coming along very quickly! They are even proud of me because of how well I can speak and that I use a lot of full sentences and I'm only 20 months old!!!!
Last week my daddy went to a doctor in Benkelman, Nebraska to get a 2nd opinion on what's been going on with him for the last 10 months. Since all the other doctors, specialists and such have all tried different things with him and none of them have worked! So the doctor in Benkelman, Dr. Lori, put him on a couple of anti-fungal medications. Apparently he has the symptoms that fit a whole body fungal infection, almost every single symptom. There's a lot more to it but I don't know what it means! I just know that daddy was really sad because he has to cut sugar out of his diet...there goes the ice cream daddy! More for me!!! :) Just kidding! Mommy and I are very hopeful that Dr. Lori is right and that after the 30 day treatment, daddy is feeling much better and back to his old self! Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
Friday night mommy and I loaded up in the van to head out to Goodland to pickup a few things! A guy simply cannot go anywhere without his cheesey poofs and juice...oh and you cannot forget a good movie. May I suggest Finding Nemo or Toy Story, the two best movies ever made!

Saturday at lunchtime, mommy, daddy and I loaded up in the pickup with my lunch and headed out to see Tampa Gardner. He was camping at Beecher Island for a black powder shoot. I had to much fun that I didn't want to leave Tampa (yes, I admit it, I cried for Tampa when we left)! I cannot help it if I like to do manly things with Tampa and with my daddy! I mean, Tampa was campin' and shootin' at stuff...who wouldn't want to do that?

I love Finding Nemo and fishies soooooo much that mommy and daddy decided to get out the aquarium and fill it up. Then we headed to Goodland to pick out some fish! Picking them out was 1/2 the fun (mainly because that meant they let me out of the cart and boy did I make a break for it....I just don't understand why mommy won't let me do my own shopping at the store, instead she makes me sit in this thing called a cart)! Sometimes parents just don't understand!

After my Sunday afternoon nap, this is what I came down the stairs too...MY VERY OWN FISH TANK, COMPLETE WITH FISHIES AND ONE CRAB! It was like Christmas. Now if I can just get daddy to let me feed them myself and mess with stuff in the fish tank, hmmm.....how am I gonna manage that one!

Here are some of the fishies that we got! They are so awesome! Daddy ended up picking out most of them for me! Mommy made me get back in the cart and we headed for the movie section. I guess it is NOT OK to scream and cry in the store! I can't help it if she doesn't understand what I want to do and when I want to do it! Gheesh!
