More Mess!

I get to eat peanut butter toast on a regular basis. While I like the salty creamy texture and the peanut taste, the best part of it is easily the mess!


It sticks to my face! It sticks to my bib! To my cup! To my tray! To my chair! And to Mommy!!


What a fun thing this Peanut Butter is....

Straw Poll

My latest trick:


Yes, I can drink from a straw -- and I can do it while ignoring the poor schmuck who is holding the cup!

Shopping

Mommy spends weekends teaching me the joy of shopping! Daddy still doesn't like it much, but I get to play with cool things! Like here, I got to play with a mega cool foam sword!


It was great for bashing daddy when he was pushing me too slowly! That said, a good chunk of shopping time is just chilling out. Yes, it is easier in the frozen food aisle, but being cool is a full time job!


At Target, I got to flirt with a cute little Lisa. She turns 1 next week -- though, she was still eating jar food and lacking teeth.

After buying all sorts of fun stuff, we often grab a bite to eat. Of course, the service is always too slow! Often, I end up resorting to banging my spoon to get their attention!


Eventually, the food does show up though -- it just seems like ages! I got to munch on pizza. I like pizza!

Pantry Raid!

I managed to get into the pantry. I've discovered it is where all my tasty food comes from! So, I decided to see what I could get my grubby little hand on...starting with Orange Soda!


The can tasted pretty good. I didn't find any ketchup -- I think I'll have to check the fridge out next. Meanwhile, I'll have to grab more of this when mommy isn't looking!

I discovered the wonders of...

Ketchup!
There was mustard there as well, but I just went for the ketchup. It looked better then the pale yellow stuff. I just had to yum the whole thing up!


But I was foiled by the lid. No matter -- I just kept it for myself!

A Duck!

Mike from Oregon came to visit. And I'm told he's a Duck! So just who is this Mike person anyways? I'm told he is a computer geek of sorts. That said, he was a bit shocked to see me, and I had to hang onto his jacket quite tightly just in case...


But eventually, he did relax a bit and it wasn't all that bad. He seemed to figure out that I don't break THAT easily!


In spite of forgetting to actually bring me a duck, he was ok. I could use another rubber ducky or two!

Coffee!

I went to hang out at the local Starbucks while mommy went shopping for makeup. Coffee makes me look all grown up and mature, don't you think?

I was extremely disappointed when the cup was empty!


I also got to bounce around and watch the world go past....not that there was too overly much outside to stare at on a lazy Sunday.



There was even some bright artwork to stare at on the walls while I watched the baristas make cup after cup of coffee!

Laundry

Mommy hangs things up to dry when she does laundry. So, with that in mind, I just simply had to help!


So, I distributed clothes pins! Lots and lots of them!

And then mommy had the fun task of picking them all up!


It's a fantastic little game. I hope we play it again!

Cuteness

A couple cute photos of me from a couple weeks ago -- back when my hair was much shorter!

Shopping...

Rabbit Ears. It's amazing what mommy finds when she's shopping for after Easter specials!


But mostly, I just spend shopping time riding around in a cart. It's so hard to look cool in a shopping cart -- but showing off for the ladies is always important!


I do like the kid food section. There are lots and lots of yummy snacks -- like my little crunchies!


and bags of yogurt yummies!


But, alas.... daddy takes the things away and I get nothing but more gruel and more mush!


Blech! Give me good food!!!

Cousin Evan becomes a photographer!

Eventually, cousin Evan managed to steal mommy's camera. He was quite good -- catching me in the act! Sure, it *started* nice and quiet-like...

but then, I decided to sneak up quietly on daddy....


Pouncing like the little tiger I am!


AND KNOCKING HIM TO THE FLOOR!


Not bad for a little guy who is only 1... This is what daddy looked like after I beat him up!


So, deciding that decression was the better part of valor, I decided to go check out something else...

Tunnel Vision

Evan and Rion have this mega cool little tunnel! It is bright blue. It's long. And it's fun, fun fun!


Evan and Rion joined in the fun as well, trapping me in!


Eventually, they let me out 'cos I was just too cute!

Playing with new toys...

Oh, I got lots and lots of other toys for my birthday! I got this cool truck from Evan and Rion!

I also got a Spencersaurus Rex -- the meanest, biggest dinosaur ever to have existed! The best thing about it is it destroys things so the truck has lots of things to tow!

I also got this singing centipede. It has 26 legs and sings the alphabet!

Fortunately, Spencersaurus Rex loves eating critters like this! So, when I get bored of hearing the ABCs, he becomes lunch!

The Joy of Mess

I'm determined to feed myself these days. It can lead to some very interesting results:



There is more food on my face then in my tummy! Sometimes, there is enough food strewn about to feed daddy -- and he eats almost as much as I do!


Mommy calls me her little disaster area. But that's only if it involves avocado, blackberries, potato salad, ....

More Birthday Photos

Just a few more pictures from my birthday... I learned that I can't have my cake and eat the candle too!

I got to show off my acrobatic moves!

...and play with my toys!

My Very Own

RETRO ROCKET from Grandma and Granddad in London!


It was so cool, but did require me to do some assembly work!


Daddy did help me, a bit!


But then I was off to discover the realms of outer space --


or maybe just the kitchen....


I attached one of my balloons to it to make it lighter and hence go faster!



And I was off again!

A Birthday Truck!

Look what Gramma and Grandpa got me -- a big truck!


It's good for carrying things. I stuck all my cards in there for a bit!


It also led to lots of exploring!



Which is where I found my NEXT prezzie!!!
