Two things ...

This will be the shortest blog ever. I've simply been too busy to take many photos so I guess I'll just show you a couple this week.

Here I am getting a haircut Monday night at Pope's. Becky is the best!


I also spent a lot of time on the phone with Grandma Kathy and Papa this week.

That's it ... it's all I've got.

Next week will be a great post ... I promise!

Much love ...

Back at it ...

Well, I made it through another holiday season. Between my birthday, Christmas and New Year's it was a busy few weeks.

It must be time to buckle down as I got more art homework from school. Here I am working with Mom to put together my penquin.

First we put on the face...
... then an attractive scarf.

Next came eyes ...

... and Dad's addition, a Gene Simmons design.

I appreciated the reference but Mom didn't see the humor. (She worried that I'd be "that kid" at school.) After a couple of minutes of debate, Dad's effort was modified a bit and my penquin was just really colorful.
I did manage to get a hold of the camera for a bit while the whole "Gene Simmons meets Pierce's penquin" debate was happening. Here's a shot of Mom I took all by myself.

This shot is one of my thumb. (Note to self ... do NOT cover the lense.)

The next night Steve stopped by for awhile. It was great to see him! He, Mom, Dad and I had a lot of fun for a few minutes then he was off to another engagement.
Thursday was a long day at school. I was just pooped when I got home and wanted nothing more than to relax on the stairs. (After some stair time with Uncle Matt and Uncle Chris last week I've discovered that they are a really great way to center and refocus.)

Saturday was busy! Dad and I unloaded the meat we bought with the Fletchers from Mom's car ...

... and had to get it into the deep freeze.

I also got cornered and was forced (against my will) to try on clothes and some things Mom bought for vacation.
Here I am modeling the outfit Uncle Matt and Aunt Emily got for me before I was even born. I'm finally getting big enough to wear it ...

... and embrace my stylish self.

Next came some swimming stuff Mom got me.
Watch out fish ... here I come!

Saturday night I spent the night at Grandma Maggy's while Mom and Dad had "date night". I had a lot of fun and it was nice to hang out with Grandma.

Have a great week, everyone!
