Captain America...

I've recently discovered Super Heroes.

Only through books but I still create a lot with my imagination. Mom and Dad say I am still too young for the movies but we are working on getting some cartoon versions based on the books I've checked out from the library.

Lately, I've been introducing myself as a Super Hero. Apparently, I'm more like Iron Man in that I enjoy everyone knowing I'm a Super Hero. However, at the moment the Hulk is my favorite because he is green and smashes. But I like the Captain America costume the most, particularly because of the shield which I saved for and earned. (It took 2 weeks and lots of pine cones!) And the mask actually fits comfortably over my glasses.

So I present to you me, as Captain America:

 

 

Feather Collecting...

On a recent nature hike the young adult geese were shedding their baby fuzz. There were goose feathers everywhere and I was so excited to collect them. I told Mom I wanted to collect enough to make a goose. She was not all that keen on that but I still went home with a large handful. 

It was a beautiful day for a nature hike.

Butterflies...

This spring we raised caterpillars and watched them turn into butterflies. (Mom is still working on that blog posting.) However, the zoo recently opened up their butterfly encounter and I wanted to go. It was tough not being able to hold or touch the butterflies as I had grown accustomed to being able to do so with my 10 butterflies. I even had one trained to drink from a dropper. More on that in Mom's posting at a later time, though.

In the interim, here are those photos from the zoo butterfly encounter. Despite not being able to hold them, I still had a couple land on me and I did enjoy that.

And yes, if you ask me I will tell you all about the stages of the life of a butterfly in more detail than you probably are interested in knowing. 

Trike...

I'm growing every day and my trike just about no longer fits. So here are some last few photos of me taking my trike for a ride:

 

Just...

From Mom's graduation day - I was excited to get a new tie.

Segway Ride...

Mom forgot to post these photos from a trip to the Discovery Center back in February but they definite blog material. Actually, both Mom and Dad were pretty proud of how brave I was jumping right up and volunteering to ride.

 

Soccer...First time

These are photos from my first soccer team experience. I don't really have a team but we are assigned to groups within our age group and we do drills, games, and then at the end play a mini game. I seem to have a great time and burn off a lot of energy. And when I do focus, I can do pretty good things. For example, I'm pretty good at dribbling the ball between the cones. 

Alas, it is all overwhelming with thousands of people around me and sometimes looking around and goofing off is far more entertaining and interesting than listening. We're still working on this. Since I'm just getting started it is not surprising I can be a bit distracted at time or sometimes all the time.

Regardless, I leave telling Mom and Dad I had fun and in the end that's what it's all about.
