Pump It Up!

Today (Wednesday), I went to my very first birthday party. My friend Emily turned 5 years old. Happy Birthday, Emily!!!


Her cool parents had her party at Pump It Up not far from our house. It's an awesome place full of fun bouncy slides and stuff. When Daddy carried me in at first, I was very fearful. This picture shows what I looked like...(Mommy took 58 pictures...yes, 58 pictures of the party).

Even though I was scared, Daddy and I took our shoes off and went in the bouncy basketball court. It was all enclosed in netting, so the pictures didn't turn out that well. I was pretty terrified but I held on tight to Daddy's shirt.


Then, Daddy took me on the big slide! He was the only grown-up going up the ladder with me...that's how cool my Daddy is! We went down the slide together and I was scared. Then, by the third time down, Daddy let me go by myself. How fun!!!! I had a happy/terrified grin on my face. Mommy was trying not to wet her pants she was laughing so hard.

We did the obstacle course together, played bouncy basketball again and did all these awesome father-son things together. Boy, did I have fun with my hero.

We played for nearly an hour, but I got so tired, I couldn't wait for the pizza. So, we headed home.



Mommy and I bought Emily a Pound Puppy for her birthday. It was so weird for Mommy to buy that for her because she remembers getting a Pound Puppy for HER birthday one year.

Her Uncle John and Aunt Nanette got it for her. She remembers the day exactly. She was in 4th grade and had to wait until after school to open it...it was a loooong day! : )

Know where that Pound Puppy is today? In my room. Yep, right next to the one Daddy had when he was little. Cool, huh!


Well, I gotta go take a nap.

I'm tired!

Love you! TJ
