Here's the extra bedroom that I get to play in right now. It's filled with lots of toys, so it's a very fun place to be.
Here I am in my bedroom. Mommy and Daddy want to do some more work in it, but I think it's a pretty good bedroom.
Mommy will add more pictures later. She's been having technical difficulties with the blog so please be patient.

Check out my new tent. Well, it's actually well used but it's new to me. Daddy and I got inside with all my stuffed animals. It was quite cozy.
Mommy's still busy unpacking, so she's not ready to put pictures of the inside of our house on the blog. So, here's a few more of the outside. I have lots of fun in my backyard.
Daddy put up a great swing for me. Yipee!
Here's the front of our house. More to come later.
Here I am enjoying my new sandbox in our new backyard. Mommy will publish more pictures of our house soon. SHe's busy unpacking right now.
It is sooooo hot in Texas-over 100 degrees. Even with the heat, I love playing outside. Mommy lets me cool off by playing with the water hose. I like to hold it myself and get completely wet. You can set the sprayer to make a mist that is soft and doesn't hurt me when I hold it close to my face.
Mommy and I made the long road trip to Tyler, Texas to visit family and friends. 
GG Paw, Mommy's Grandad, lives in Tyler, so we got to play together.
Nana and I had lots of fun playing in the water hose in the backyard. It is so hot in TX, but I still love being outside.
Mommy got to see her friends, too. Anne, Christine, and Natalie have been my mommy's friends for a long time. They came to see me in Michigan when I was only a few months old. They think I'm much busier now. Miss Christine has two little boys that I got to play with. 
Mommy gave me a new food tonight. I thought it was yummy but a little tricky to eat.
Hmmm...this is fun to play with.
Happy Fourth of July, Y'all! Now that I'm back in the South, I've been hearing people say "y'all". It's kind of catchy.
I celebrated my second Fourth of July with my Aunt Kimberly, Uncle Tim, and Will. We went to a parade, heard a band, and ate some yummy food. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any fireworks because Mommy made me go to bed. Maybe next year.
Boy, was it hot! Will and I ate our lunches in our strollers. There were so many interesting things to look at that I didn't mind sitting in my stroller. Aunt Kimberly found these neat star decorations, too. I'm glad I live in such a great country.
This is Lily. She's my new friend in TN. Since we are staying at her house temporarily, I've had lots of time to get to know her. I really like her, and I think she really likes me.
She lets me pet her and snuggle up to her. She always waits outside me room until I come out and play with her.
She likes to lick me and that makes me laugh. Sometimes, I share my dinner with her-especially the green beans. Shelby, if you are reading this, don't worry. You are still my favorite puppy.
and pull the drawers out to peek inside and pull everything out.
Oops! Mommy caught me red-handed. How could you get upset with this cute face?
More good times at the pool. I really love to be in the water, and I like splashing and having water on my face and head.
Mommy spent time with my girlfriends, Gretchen and Emma, and their mommy. They went to Dairy King for ice cream. Boy, was I sad that I missed that. I also miss my friends a lot. 
Here's baby Madison-Auntie Marie's baby girl. Mommy got to spend lots of time with Maddie and her mommy. Mommy said she's really cute and sweet. I can't wait to meet her and play together.
Auntie Jenn, the beautiful lady in the middle, is getting married soon. So, there was a special party for the girls in the wedding. Auntie Jenn will make a very pretty bride. She said I am invited to the wedding, but mommy thinks I should stay at home. I wonder why-a wedding sounds like lots of fun.
Auntie Jenn, Auntie Marie, Maddie and Mommy had fun spending time together. We miss all of our friends from Michigan.
Nana came to visit this past week. Even though I got a cold and ear infection while she was here, I had so much fun with her. We went to the park, she watched me swim in the pool, she fed me lunch and dinner, and we played a lot. Thanks, Nana, for loving me even when I was grouchy because I was sick. I love you!
Cousin Will got in the pool for the very first time this week. He really likes it like I do, so we'll spend lots of time together in the water this summer. Going swimming is much more fun when you have a buddy with you.
Last weekend, we went out on Uncle Tim's ski boat. The boat went really fast, and at first I was a little scared. Then, I realized how fun it was to zoom across the water. I also got to go swimming with Daddy.
Do you like my life jacket? It's a special one just for little guys like me and my cousin.
After all that swimming and boat riding, I got really tired.
My cousin, Will, and his mommy and daddy came over for dinner tonight. We had lots of fun together. We were having a contest to see who could be the messiest. Our parents said it was a tie.
"Hey, Graham! Are you going to eat that?"
I'm ready to go swimming. I've got my swimming suit and my sunglasses. Come on, Mommy!
climb up and slide down, 
crawl through the side,
and open and close the door. Thanks, everyone, for this great gift.
