I was looking back at the pictures today and realized that when we go home to see my family, this kid gets just about anything he wants. =) Here is the proof.

He gets to do the sweeping, one of his all time favorites. He also gets to wear fun clothes he borrowed from his cousins. This is especially meaningful to me, because my niece used to borrow my t-shirts to sleep in when she was a wee one, and now my son is borrowing t-shirts from her. =) It comes full circle.



Aunt Nicole, let him help water the flowers which of course led to drinking out of the hose, and his all time favorite, getting all wet.


Then of course, when it comes to strawberries, Erik J will not be denied. I am pretty sure he could have turned into a strawberry by the end. Aunt Nicole loves her Baby J.

On the way home from the airport, The Suiters had to stop to make sure Erik Jr had everything he needed. This stop included a wiffle bat. I think this picture explains the rest.

Then of course, after making the 4th of July cake he needed have his own beater to taste. Mmmmmm Good!


Of course in tradition Erik J style, he found something to jump off. So he spent quite some time jumping off the porch with Uncle Dabe! They had a great time. Then I got a bit of my wish and I got to see a real storm. I miss storms. It just sweats in San Diego. =)

Then after some hard playing, he needed a drink. When your on vacation you don't have to hold your own water. Your Grandma Chell will do it for you.

His Uncle Kirk even let Erik Jr. play with his walkie talkies! Breaker Breaker 1-9. Breaker Breaker 1-9.... this was followed by many games of chase with Emma and Lauren. Cousins are the best!

And then, when he was too tired to go on any longer, he had his Lauren to snuggle with. She shared her blanket and even shared her books.
Vacation- isn't it the life!
