Dear Hunter,

You've been pretty funny lately. You have so much attitude you are not sure what to do with it. Eventually it all manifests its way out in the form of silliness but sometimes it sneaks out as a very grumpy boy. Especially when we wake you up from a nap or in the morning. You're literally like a bear. We now have the joke, don't wake the bear!

We had a bug party and this time you were loving it! You had a ton of fun. No injured toes. However, you had so much fun that at the end of the party that at the end of it you ended up in the same chair looking just as pathetic. Grammy asked if you got hurt again, and I had to tell her that you were just worn out from too much fun!

We went to Olympia to see family recently. On the way there we stopped in Ellensburg to walk through the gift store and take a break. You saw this giant black bear that you wanted. It was expensive though so Daddy told you if you didn't want to buy anything else the rest of the weekend you could have the giant bear. You made it to North Bend when we stopped at the outlet mall and decided that buying candy was worth it. You ended up getting the bear on the way home which is another story all of its own.

We went to the zoo on the way home from Olympia. You loved every second of it! You even rode a camel! You were pretty excited about that. I was so impressed that you weren't afraid even a little bit, because it was just last August that you wouldn't even get on the miniature pony at the fair!

You still love to pretend you're Spiderman. You love playing "monster btack"  with Daddy. This year you love the water! You're enjoying the sprinkler parks and the pools more than you ever have before! It's going to be such a fun summer! I love you buddy!

Mommy
