Park Day!!!!

Hi guys, it’s me, Obadiah! The other day my Daddy took me, Malachi, and my cousins Hannah, and Summer to the park!!!

Here we are in the truck on the way to the park. I love it when it’s warm outside and we can roll the windows down!

First things first when you get to the park. You’ve got to feed the ducks! We brought some bread from home. The ducks, and geese came right up to us. One goose had lots of baby geese. One of the ducks tried to eat right out of Hannah’s hand and they nibbled on her finger a little bit. She said it didn’t hurt, but I’m not letting those ducks get that close to ME!!!

Then we went over to the play area. They have this great big red teepee looking thingy for us to climb on. Malachi and I like to get on the lower ropes and bounce up and down.

Our cousins Hannah and Summer are bigger than us, so they can make it all the way to the top!!!

They’re CRAZY!!!

After that we were all hot so we really needed to cool down. Our park has water that shoots up all over the place, so I stripped down to my Spiderman skivvies and jumped right in!!

Malachi likes to stick his little fingers in the holes to try and stop the water from coming out. It never works. It always squirts out all over the place and gets him really wet!

We love going to the park!!!

THANKS UNCLE RUSS!!!

Hi guys, Obadiah here. My uncle Russ is a pilot and he promised me I could go for a flight for my birthday present. He told me I could bring along my Daddy, and a friend, so I called my best buddy Zachariah!

We flew out to the coast. You could see everything! We saw the ocean, and lots of trees, and ponds, and one really big lake.

Uncle Russ even let me fly the plane by myself!

It was SO FUN!!!

Uncle Russ and Daddy thought it would be a great idea to do some sharp turns and make the plane go around and around REALLY fast.
Zachariah seemed to think it was a great idea.

I didn’t like the idea AT ALL. When the plane went around in circles like that my throat started feeling scratchy and I kind of threw up a little bit in my mouth.

Even though I got a little sick, we all had a great time. It was really cool to go up in the plane.


My Daddy made a video of me flying the plane.

I'm gettin' shaggy

Hi everyone, it's me, Malachi. I was playing with the tripod for Daddy's camera and I asked him to snap a picture of me so that I could share with the world how incredibly cute I am. I'm glad he took the picture when he did. About two minutes later that darn thing BIT ME. Daddy said it pinched me, but it sure felt like a bite.
Daddy says I need a haircut, Mommy says I'm cute.
I think I'm gonna bring back the shaggy seventies look. THAT is a look who's time has come. I'm even tryin' to grow out some scruffy facial hair to complement my hippy look. Grandpa Albert will be SO proud. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

FYI, still not saying "Daddy"

Oh man, I'm trying to hold back a cough so bad. It makes my face look fat. Anyway, a funny thing happened today. My mom Katie was on the phone and she sounded weird to me. I said, "Mom, why are you talking like a robot?" She explained to me that she was leaving a message, and that she was enunciating very carefully so that the people would be able to call her back. But to me, it totally sounded like she was talking like a robot!!

Hi, Malachi here. I've continued to piss off my dad by learning how to say grandma, grandpa, no, and bye bye, but still no daddy. I'm gonna see how long I can let it ride. See that peanut butter on my face? My big brother Obadiah makes a mean peanut butter and honey sandwich. Definitely my favorite!!
