Hi Folks!
I'm so sorry for the delay, it has been ages! I'm not sure whether we have been so busy that I've neglected to write, or whether I just haven't had a lot to share, but at any rate I'm back. We got home a bit ago from a trip to Phoenix to visit grandpa Steve, so that is an event worth writing about.
First, there was the airplane. How exciting! Mommy and daddy brought special snacks and tiny presents for me to open when I got bored, but I have to say I was a VERY good boy. Perhaps it was the DVD player we borrowed from Kathy and Nick
"I Love Toy Trains" is even better when it is on your lap! Anyway, we arrived without a hitch (except that I forgot to take a nap) and arrived at grandpa Steve's house to find new toys! And cowboy clothes! And boots! Don't I look smashing?
I had an all-around good time playing with grandpa and Ann and Ozzy the dog. Who knew they had more in store? Then we took a trip to the race track (the first of many on our trip) and I got to feed carrots and apples to the horses, and ride Dune!!! I'm still talking about it, it was so cool.
Actually the very best part was the black horse in the shed row that shook his head up and down over and over again. Sometimes now when I'm playing I shake my head up and down and when mommy asks what I'd doing, I say "playing black horse". Good times.
On Sunday we hooked up with our friends Cristen, Kurt and Harper at the train park, which would have been really great except that I was in a bit of a foul mood. Food helped a little, but I think traveling was starting to get the best of me.
Anyway, we got to ride the mini train (with several sets of gates! hurray!), and the carousel, and then we played at the park for a while before heading back to grandpa's house. Harper and I were in our mommys' belllies at the same time, so although we've had our pictures taken together before, this was the first time we had met
Anyway, all in all it was a really great trip. Unfortunately we scared the sunshine away and it was busy shining in Seattle while we were in Phoenix, but otherwise we had a blast. Grandpa did some yummy cooking and I did some great strutting around in my boots!
What else? Well, I've been playing tricks on mommy and daddy with the potty training
They thought I was nearly done, but I'll show them! Ha! This is my body and I'll pee all over it whenever I want to
Sometimes, that's never. Sometimes, that's all day long. Eventually I'll get there, but it is fun to make them crazy in the meantime.
It has been so long since I have written that I haven't done a good job of remembering my cuteness. A few things mommy is sad about: I have finally mastered the word "blueberry". It was "booboorry" for a long time and mommy loved it, but I decided it was time to sound like the big boy I am. I'll keep "breafkast" a while longer though, just to make her happy.
And here is something that mommy thinks is cute but I don't really get it: my bottom teeth were hurting the other day so I told mommy, "mouth owy. Go dentist". She asked if she could see and I showed her, but she just laughed and pulled the bits of carrot out from between my bottom teeth. Problem solved
Oh yeah, and I got my school pictures taken the other day. I'll scan one in once I get them back. The proofs are pretty cute if I do say so myself.
Well, that's probably about it. I'm going to try to post more often, but no promises. Typing takes a long time and I would rather be playing! Oh, but I should tell you that there are a few other photos in my gallery. Some of my friend Zoe's 1st birthday party, one of me with a valentine cookie I made with mommy, and some others. Enjoy!
