Here we have one incredibly helpful toddler, swiffering the hallway!

Someone help me!  They make me clean all day long!  And they don't bother to brush my hair!  And I have no shoes that match!  Can anyone out there hear me?  Grandma?  Anyone?  Help!

Madam's first theme-park ride!  The ferris wheel!

She looooved it.

Hmm.  I wonder if I ask nicely enough, if I can go on this ride again?

What do you think, folks?  You think if that kiddo came up to you and said "More, please!" you could resist her?

Yeah.  Neither could we.  (Pardon our extra-floppy hats.  We wore them in the pool and they got a little damp.) (Especially after Jaynie threw them both in the deep end.)

Jaynie's second ride, and probably her favorite.

We have no good pics of her on it - she was too hypnotized by the spinning around and the going up and down to be bothered to look our way and smile.

Fine, fine.  I'll give you a little uninterested wave.  Will that do?  Geesh. 

The third and final ride.  It was a pretty exciting day.

I have no good pictures of this one in motion, because every time their (what? balloon?) got close to me it swung around so all I could see was Joe's back and the top of her hat.  So - here's a picture of Joe's back and a little white hat.

POPSICLE!

That was what she yelled, while standing at the door to the freezer.  How could I say no?

Aaaah.  Popsicles and the elephant pool.

It doesn't get much better than this.

Yay!  Thanks Mom!

Uh, Jaynie?  Can you stand up and show me that outfit?

Sure, Mommy!  Do you like it?  I picked it out myself!

Now, if you don't mind, I'm TRYING to play with my blocks!  (Look at that look she's giving me!)

Here we have the genius, eating the watermelon's rind.

Ooh, you're right, Mom!  The pink side IS better!

Mmm mmph mmmm.

Thith ith delithith. 

Happy 4th of July, everybody!!!

(She was asleep about 2 1/2 hours before any fireworks started.  Maybe next year.)

I'm going to carry this picture in my wallet, so when people give me crap about calling Jaynie "The Destroyer", I'll have proof to show them.

This is what happens when you leave your toddler alone in the room so you can go to the bathroom without an audience.  Who knew she could climb that bar stool.  Sigh.

This was the morning that Jaynie walked into the bathroom and said "SHOWER!"

So I turned on the water, and she stayed in there for like 30 min.

Woooo, Mommy!  Couldn't you put on the hot water?

Although, this cold shower is very refreshing!

Don't be fooled by that sweet face.  She's wearing the diaper for a reason (I'm tired of scrubbing the shower floor - that's all I'm going to say about that.)

We happily played and swam and splashed at the water park for a couple of hours...

Then I get out the camera, and suddenly she is READY TO GO HOME!

Adorable!

Adorable and Hhhhhhot! (How cute are they in their glasses?)

It's hard to come up with humorous captions for gorgeous pictures.

Look at that face - she loooves the park!

Pardon the crooked ponytail - Daddy did her hair that day.

Oh my...

She's so freaking cute!  I can't stand it!

Gramma and Aunty Suz help Jaynie with the slip and slide.

I'm pretty sure this is fun, but I'm not 100% sure yet.

Mom, I think my tan is fading.

I'm almost as white as you, Mommy!

I had to include this - I think she was pointing at the cat.  Look at that big girl hand! 

Between interviews, our little starlet poses for a few close-ups.

Hmm.  Seems I left Gramma alone with her long enough for a lollipop magically appear.

Yes, yes... I know I'm gorgeous.

Here, Aunty Suz.  I picked this yucky thing off the ground just for you!

Moooom.  Can you leave my hair alone for two seconds please!

She's carrying around a brush, you'd think maybe she'd be more groomed than this.

"I... Love... You...... GRAMMA!"

Give me that camera THIS INSTANT!

STOP TAKING PICTURES OF ME WHEN MY HAIR IS MESSED UP!

Oooh.  Vintage toys.

Great Grams dug out the old Little People villiage!

I love this toy, Mommy.

If you loved me, you would get me one just like it.

Haven't made them in 30 years?  Excuses, Mom.  Nothing but excuses.

Reading books with Poppy and Tigger.

Posing for the camera with Great Grams.
