One of my favorite things to do, just don't film me, Mom!

I got a throne!

2008-11-22T12:36:00.001-08:00

The other day, a HUGE box came to the door and said, Open Says Me! Mommy had to help because there was this awful stuff keeping the box closed. Finally, it was open and there was all this fabulous white stuff that fit perfectly in my mouth! Awesome!

But wait, there's more! My mom pulls out this huge thing bigger than me and starts peeling away layers to discover this... ta da!

My Throne!

A special thing made just for me! See? It's got my name on it. The white spot in the middle looks just like my favorite place to play that's usually got water in it so right away, I put my feet in. Fun!

Mom didn't like that, though and pulled me out and whipped off my diaper - WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?! She put my butt over the hole and went "Pssst!" and then the strangest thing happened. I heard a "pssst!" that didn't come from my mom and then she started clapping.

When I got up she came back and took this picture. I can't believe my mother has captured and published my first piddle in a potty. But here it is...

God help me. I hope she's saving for my therapy later.

It hurts, it HURTS! ... I'm fine now...

The dark time is hard. Everything hurts more. Right now, there's these things that are starting to pop out of my mouth. In the dark, when I'm all snug and happy, the pain just comes through and I have to scream to let Mama and Dada know. And I want the booby a whole bunch - it makes me forget what hurts.

Why are they so slow when it's dark? I'm in pain here, folks!

It got light again and I'm happy again and the Big People get a little faster. I get O's and some mushy stuff of different flavors and they pull up my lip and say, "Oh! Look at that! We've had a breakthrough!"

Oh man. I feel like an animal.

Ancient pictures of me!

This was sooooooooo long ago. Way back when I was 6 months old! What a baby!

Happy October!

2008-10-25T15:17:00.000-07:00

They caught me looking at the tv. It's sunny outside. Why are we in here?

This was from a little while ago when it was actually warm enough to sit on the lawn with turning blue.

I think Daddy did something funky but it looks cool! That was today, just like the photos up top...

This was a week or 2 ago. Another rare sunny day and they caught me napping. Mommy says she likes me a lot like this. One of my favorite things on earth is sleeping in Mommy's arms. It's heaven.

I've got teeth!!!

2008-10-25T15:16:00.000-07:00

I love peas!

This is a fabulous mystical object that I get to play with when they change my diaper. Sometimes I get the sense that they are trying to distract me. This angers me and I throw the mystical object as far as I can! But here, I've found it and I'm NOT getting a diaper change... Wow!

Mommy's favorite shot.

Me and my new mommy - she has different hair but smells the same. I think I'll keep her.

More October updates... Look I'm flyin!

2008-10-25T15:13:00.000-07:00

It's October! Time for some updates!

2008-10-25T15:09:00.000-07:00

It's been a while since mommy and daddy put up pictures of me. I was getting impatient so I decided to put some up my self. These are some of my favorites:)

Hello feet!

traveling...

Mom took me in that really big loud thing again. I mostly slept - that rumble is pretty soothing. There was an annoying kid jumping up and down and screaming who kept waking me up. Mommy said I'm never getting Starburst and Coke, whatever that is. If it makes me annoying like that, I don't think I want it.

We met people that seemed familiar - I recognized their voices but not their faces. There were some other people a little bigger than me and one almost exactly my size!

She was really pretty.

She showed me a cool way to eat solid food and now I really like using my hands. No more spoon or baby food for me! I can eat whatever I want! It was really cool. And they had this table with stuff on it that moves around when you push them. And baskets of things like that, too. Mom said they were trains and trucks and cars but I just thought they were really cool. I got to sit in a bigger one while mom pulled me around. That was super fun.

We went to a park and the bigger one likes to swing. A LOT.

I did, too. I rode with the one my size in the same swing. They called it a toofer, whatever that is. But we both had fun. I'm in the blue hat behind the smiling one.

more ater. There was a LOT that happened. But I liked it there a whole lot. Nice people and cool rollie things. Gotta go back even if it means getting woken up by annoying kids on starburst.

stuff...

2008-10-02T10:22:00.000-07:00

I've been busy. Sorry. There is just so much to explore and have fun with I can't be bothered to blog about it every time. But this was too cool. I had to tell someone. There's this box and you can pull stuff out of it. The stuff is white and soft and easy to tear up and throw around and looks like snow. But the coolest thing is pulling it out of the box. you can just keep pulling and pulling and it never stops!! I love this box! I call it, Never ending box of fun! Mom calls it a big mess and stuffs everything back in. I suppose that's so I can pull it all out again!

Oh hi there!

2008-08-11T10:00:00.000-07:00

Me and Mommy at some place called Alpental. That's a silly name!

Me and daddy at a waterfall. brrrr!

Me and my godfather Sean.

Man I love this crawling stuff. I get access to all sorts of goodies now!

Solids shmolids...

2008-07-19T19:10:00.000-07:00

What's with this "solid food" stuff? Sometimes it's good and I like the bright colors. Other times, I don't know what she's thinking when she gives me this stuff. Is she trying to kill me or something? It feels weird and some of makes my mouth go bang pow and then mom laughs at me. She laughs at me.

How messed up is that.

Sleeping tricks

2008-07-19T19:05:00.000-07:00

I learned a new trick today. I pretend to "nap" so I can eat for an hour or more. It's so great. Mom thinks she's helping me sleep, but I'm just eating and eating and eating. If she tries to stop feeding me, the pacifier does not pacify. Only one thing will work. If she tries to put me down, in the crib or elsewhere, I cry. Even when I feel her wiggling her legs saying they are "asleep" which seems weird to me and saying she has to pee. Why can't she just pee her pants like I do? I swear, moms are so weird.

Some of my Aunties...

2008-06-18T16:14:00.000-07:00

I love my auntie CB. She was one of the first few people I met after coming outside. These pictures do not do justice to her beauty or how good she makes me feel.

I love her.

She's really strong. Look! I'm flying!

Here's a shout out to Auntie Krista. Thanks for this gift. I don't know what it says but Mom laughs a LOT whenever I wear it and people smile at me, but in a different way. I guess that's good...

Auntie Tamara is our buddy on this trip. She loves to hold me and play and calls me butterball while smiling. I like that she smiles.

Here is me. I'm still really cute!

My first menu..

2008-06-18T16:01:00.000-07:00

We're in some place called "Whistler". I don't know much but Mom keeps saying we're in another country, whatever that means. All I know is the green things outside look really different and there's a little more sun than at home. Not much.

So far, we've been swimming, I've played a lot with my music toys and last night we went to a restaurant. I got to pick out what I wanted from the menu.

However, I never did get my "pizza" or "Penfolds Reserve" but Mom got something called a New York Strip and mashed potatoes. She didn't say much but she kinda sounded weird moaning like that. I guess that meant she liked it.

Also, I met this hottie named Eden. She was an older lady (10 months), but I think she liked me.

I had a party...

2008-06-11T20:08:00.000-07:00

My first party (Mommy called it a "playdate" - sheesh) Here's the whole cast of characters that came to my first party (get it, Mom?).

In back on the left, we have the lovely Ivy and Mommy Hayven, then Cole and Mommy Haley, sweet Cara (who didn't talk much) and Mommy Marcilla, and Simon and Mommy Emily. In front left to right is Mommy Laurel and her pretty girl Anna, then me and my Mommy Rane. We had lots of fun.

Some people passed out. I guess that's a sign of a good party, eh?

I am baby, hear me roar!

Frighteningly huge cat.

Mommy and daddy are REALLY goofy.
