My fat cat got a shave....he looks silly!!!


Climbing in the dinosaur bone structure at the park...



Swinging at the park...




Going down the slide head first...


My face after I flew off the slide....let me tell you dirt does not taste good!!!




But that didn't stop me from going down the slide again.




Climbing up stairs.



Riding on a Dinosaur.
Grandpa gave me a piggy back ride...Daddy likes to give me piggy back rides too, I can't wait for him to come back so we can have fun!

The Choo Choo at the park.

Mommy and I in the Choo Choo...


Me at the front of the engine.


I wanted Mommy to take my picture so I got up in the camera...


Unlike Mommy, I like tomatoes!

soccer balls & kitties...

Today was my first day of soccer. First we had free play, then we sat in a circle and said our names and favorite colors. Next we stacked cones and a soccer ball and then kicked them over, then we played with a parachute but I didn't wan't to play with that, I was just interested in the soccer balls...


Here I am picking up the soccer ball to help Mommy stack the cone tower...Then there are a few pictures of me helping Mommy stack the cones and then I kicked over the tower....




It was fun to kick over the tower, over all my first day of soccer was fun. Maybe next Saturday I'll try more things, and we'll get more pictures to share.

Looking all handsome in my sweatsuit.....


Here I am crawling like Kitty....."meow"....


Mommy took some pictures to show how big Ipo (our kitty) really is. He weighs 29 lbs...that's more than me!!!
Here's a top view....


Then I wanted to give kitty kisses, he let me give him one but that was all...I don't think he likes kisses very much.

Buddies, Bowling, and Blankets!!!

Mommy got a package in the mail the other day and inside was my "Daddy blanket"!!! It's a blanket that some wonderful volunteers made for me down in San Diego and Carter's Mommy picked it up for us and sent it to me. It's so great! It has pictures of me and my Daddy all over it. I was so excited when Mommy showed me, I ran to is and pointed to the pictures saying, "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!....." Mommy took some pictures of me checking it out and laying on is and giving Daddy Kisses and hugs! I sleep with it every night! I love my Daddy and my new "daddy blanket"!




Mommy took pictures of me at bath time the other night. She promised not to put the embarrassing ones in, so the first one is me chewing on my stacking cup. Sometimes I like to try and drink the bath water out of it but Grandma usually stops me. The second picture is me putting my foot in my mouth, it made Mommy and Grandma laugh so I just kept doing it! Grandma usually gives me my baths, Mommy tries to help sometimes but her belly is so big that it's hard for her. Mommy said that she is very thankful that Grandma and Grandpa help out so much. I like it too!



Mommy bought me a plastic bowling set and is teaching me how to roll the ball instead of throwing it. I like to just take the ball and hold it in my hands and knock down all the pins though. I'm still learning.

Here I am shaking the pins like maracas even though they don't make noise. What can I say? I like to shake it!

Here is my serious pose....

Grandpa let me play outside and he even let me go off the deck and get dirty like every boy should. Mommy and Grandma are so in to letting me get dirty but Grandpa lets me when they aren't around.
Grandpa even lets me feed the brown squirrel...we're buddies!


Grandpa's like the paparazzi, always taking pictures! Come on! I'm eating here! What's a guy gotta do to get a little privacy around here!?!


Mommy and I went to visit our friend Kelsey the other day and I wouldn't put my pants back on after my diaper change and I also wanted to play on the stairs. Mommy didn't want me on the stairs but she let me pose for this picture before making me get down. I even smiled for the camera on my own when she asked.....fake smile, but a smile none the less.


Here I am playing with Kelsey's dog Luke. He's a boxer and he's big and clumsy and he looks like he would be scary but he's just a big love. We had lots of fun playing together, he's so gentle but he is big so we just had to make sure he didn't get too excited and knock me over. He even let me play with his toys, what a great dog!

Soccer & the Beach

Here I am in my jersey shirt just being cute like always...


Trying to decide which ball to play with first....hummmm....


Mommy took me to play soccer to see if I liked it, I DID! So Mommy signed me up for the Saturday morning class, we start next week....I can't wait!


Here are some pictures from my trip to Nye Beach...as you can see from the bench. It was lots of fun!


Grandpa helped me dig a hole in the sand, and break in my new bucket and shovels...

And we had ice cream and I got my very own cone!!! Yummy banana ice cream!


Buckets of sand are heavy!


I saw lots of kites flying!

Grandma taught me how to blow bubbles....I'm still learning but I get it most of the time...


I blew a bubble!!!


I like to play with my soccer ball! I don't always kick it though, sometimes I pick it up and throw it, mommy says that's a goalie job....


See, here I am picking it up with my hands.




This is a hug for Daddy. I love you Daddy!
