So, sorry no posts in a while, Superstar and Mama were visiting in San Diego with Mama's sister and her family. One of Superstar's favorite things to do down there was prowl around the yard being a T-Rex, his favorite dinosaur. I thought this picture pretty much portrays his latest obsession.We also went on lots of fabulous hikes, went discount shopping, car shopping, and helped take care of Superstar's cute little cousin. He loves her, and they are cute playing together. In this picture, they're watching Baby Einstein together. Superstar will be a fabuloso big brother someday!
If all days at the beach were this perfect, I would give up my home and live there forever. It was very nice weather, not too cold, not too hot, nice breeze, and the water was incredible. It would have to be for Superstar to be down swimming in it like he is. I didn't wear my swimsuit, but I wish I had, because I would have been out there with him, and I never have a desire to go in the normally cold Pacific. Anyway, you get the picture. 
So since I am the president of Kelly's fan club, because he's only one of the nicest guys ever and doesn't know it, which is half his charm, I must post this picture of him and his girlfriend Kelly. I know that I was never this cute. They came to dinner on Sunday and it was so much fun! They're adorable and we love them!
Yesterday we went to the beach. Superstar and Great-Grandpa are so cute together. Superstar snuggles him, and Great-Grandpa is very protective of Superstar, always watching to make sure he doesn't drown or get hurt or anything. It's so cute! We went down to the water briefly and saw dolphins jumping up out of the water. We'd seen them at Newport Beach, but not here. It was really cool! 
I took this picture of Great-Grandpa and I, because I love him! He's the sweetest thing, and I hope he decides to stay with us forever.
Great-Grandpa felt like an ice-cream cone after the fire station, so Uncle Gary treated us to Baskin-Robbins. How Sweet!
Why, oh why do I let Superstar talk me into chocolate. Vanilla is much easier on the laundry. Oh well, I'm not going to deny him when I'm eating it in front of him. I did get cute pictures, which of course, in my book, makes just about anything worth it.
This week has been really busy because not only is Great-Grandpa here from Kansas, but his 3 sons are here now too. So on Thursday Great-Grandpa, Uncle Gary, Uncle Danny, Grandma, Superstar and Mama went to the fire station to visit Grandpa Mike, the Fireman. Doesn't Superstar look so cute in the fire engine wheel?
So I took my shaggy little Superstar down to our favorite barber shop for a haircut. He's so darn cute in the chair that I always take his picture. Those people must think I'm so camera crazy, but they're so nice about it. I always ask them to leave it a little longer on top because he tells me, "Mama, I need my spiky." He loves me to do his hair and then look at himself in the mirror.
So 2 1/2 years ago Superstar got this cute little bike from Grandma & Grandpa for his birthday. He was very excited, I was excited, (I picked it out,) Daddy was very excited. I have a whole scrapbook page on the new bike. But then, it proved difficult to teach him how to ride it and we kind of tried to teach him on and off. Well he finally got it. I never realized how tricky it is to bring that back foot up and over again. You've really got to hang on to the pedal. So good job, baby, I'm proud of you! Way to go!
Ta da! I'm so excited! I have berry plants! I went to the Armstrong Gardens clearance sale with Daddy and Superstar on Saturday morning and perused their stock. I was overwhelmed with the possibilities for purchase. But then I remembered berries! The nice garden man directed me to the corner where they had quite a variety of berries in all sorts of conditions, some pretty, some not so pretty. Dry, growing weeds, these were sale plants after all. So I got a raspberry, boysenberry, blackberry, and 3 mystery berry plants, very exciting! I can't wait to see what they are! And they were all 50% off, which is even better!
So before Christmas last year I bought Superstar this cool Mr. Potato Head pirate set. I hid it in my closet and proceeded to forget to give it to him for Christmas or his birthday, which would have been perfect with his pirate party. So then I found it and didn't know when to give it to him. I hated to save it for a whole year, poor kid has toy bonanza once a year and then nothin'! So he's been playing this Mr. Potato Head game on the computer and so I thought I would get the toy out for him this morning. He loves it! It's infinitely more cool than I thought it was. It comes in a giant pirate potato head with its own removable parts (not pictured,) and comes with 4 potato heads and stuff to make them full on pirates and merfolk and everything. I love that the big potato holds all the little potatoes and their parts. Bonus!
