Top 'o the mornin' to ya! For those of you who don't recognize this voice, it's me, Patrick. My close ones call me Paddy Daulton - thus I've adopted an Irish dilect. Me mums been busy this summer now that me brudda is finished with the summer school and hasn't had a moment to post. But thanks to me Lucky Charms, I get a chance.
Me brudda, Ryan, ore long await had some success on the loo. So we got to go to the pool to celebrate.
You also missed me birthday. Yep, I am now one year wise. I didn't wake up in the best mood, but some silly play time with me Meemee put me in better spirits.
I got to see plenty o me friends and family the week we were in Dixon. I got me a nice wagon/scooter for gettin' around. Silly mum puttin' a bow on me head.
Ahh the cake. I don't yet know if I care for the taste, but it sure was fun to squish in me fingers.
Mum and I did swim lessons earlier this summer. A mum of another lil' girl in the class was to send the pictures she took to me mum, but never did. So sadly, no pictures of Paddy Daulton at swimming. Here's Ryan wit his helper, Elizabeth. Ryan could be a stubborn lad, but Elizabeth found out she could get him to do more if he was allowed to do "blast offs" as a reward.
A high five success after blowin' bubbles in the water.
The last bit o fun we had was going to hear a concert at Ravinia. It was a family favorite, Laurie Berkner. There were thousands o kiddies there. A bit too loud for me brudda, so he wore his earphones.
Me dad is a funny man.
Me mum and me sound sensitive brudda.
A lil kiss for me dad, it's like kissin' the Blarney Stone - nice and smooth!
