Self Portrait

I finally got this camera thingy figured out. There's a button on top that causes it to make noise. It's a little heavy for a chew toy though.

Lost in space

I'm moving up to a different class next week so I thought I'd check out the new digs. My new toddler room is waaaayyyyy bigger than the baby room.

If the shoe fits...

To quote Mr. Sam Hagar: "I went out, I bought some brand new shoes, now I walk like someone else."

Actually, I don't really walk at all. However, there's big progress in that dept. See below.

Still a hot mess

I was on the road to recovery, and then I decided to have an allergic reaction to the medicine I was taking. So it was another Sunday trip to the doctor's office for me.

Bathroom humor

I can't decide which is more fun: flushing the toilet or unrolling the toilet paper.

A hot mess

Guess who's sick and tired of being sick and tired?

I got the pyrexia

Another fever of unknown origin landed me in the doctor's office. No shots today, thank goodness, but those are fast-approaching as my one-year appointment (one year!) is in two weeks.

Toilet training

Mommy thought she heard the toilet flush all by itself this morning. That was not the case.

One fly ride

I have access to some serious wheels at school. This is the Cadillac of baby carts with plenty of amenities, like a cupholder sized for a can of beer bottle of milk.

Run! It's a giant baby!!!

The people of Smallville were terrified when I appeared on their streets today. Actually, I just made a return trip to Exploration Place with dad to help him out with a little project he's doing for work at the Kansas in Miniature exhibit.

Trying to get the message across

I've tried a variety of methods to get across that I'm hungry. I'm using my new-found agility to try yet another method.

Storytime sounds

Grandpa is such a good narrator. When he goes "moo" like a cow or "quack quack" like a duck, it's so funny!

Ladies who lunch

Genevieve and her Aunt Adriene invited me over for lunch. The food was delicious and the little blue Smurf toys I chewed on weren't bad either.

Turbo Helen

I stuck with the army crawl for a long time, and I'm even taking steps towards the final frontier of infant mobility. But for now... speed crawling.

And now (finally) introducing...

It took a little tickle torture from dad to get me to reveal a little something that's been a long time coming. Perhaps you'll recall some previous false alarms. 

I'm finally getting my two front teeth!

A tasty show

A finger puppet performance is way more fun when eating the characters is part of the storyline.

Turtle time

I went to Exploration Place today and had all sorts of fun. They had snakes, tornados (small ones), airplanes and just about everything else you might find in Kansas.

Downy fresh

I took a ride in a the laundry basket today, and unlike rides in the past, I made for a much heavier load.

Baby clothes, baby clothes everywhere

So many clothes. So many bargains. So little time.

Dining out

I went out to eat tonight and was on my best behavior during the entire meal except for the few times when I used my outside voice (aka shrieking at the top of my lungs) inside the restaurant.

Water crisis

Given the fact that my drinking options will soon include things other than water, I'm no longer allowed to stick my hand in the water glass. I'm not happy about this, in case you can't tell.

Making faces behind your back

Pssst... Don't tell Dad how silly his hat looks. 

(Aug. 10, 2011)

Let's g-o go!

When I walk towards Mommy at full speed and then run over her foot with my push cart, that means I'm ready to go. Now.

Stormy stroll

It was lookin' a little hairy there for a moment while Dad and I were out for a walk this morning. The storm missed us, but we sure could have used the rain.

Where's the baby?

I visited another new baby girl today named Sophia. Was I really that small once? Guess so.

A dynamite duo

I discovered Julian likes to sing and play the piano, too. Perhaps we can collaborate on songwriting together and come up with a hit like these two did.

Big Brother Bear Hug

I think Emmet wants a little brother. He kept referring to me as "he" and "him."

Rockin' comparison

I've already been compared to rockers Bret and Billy on this blog. Lately, I've discovered how to stick out my tongue. Was there really any question about which direction this blog post was headed?

Home on the Range

Back home where the buffalo roam, and the deer and the antelope play. And where the weather is so hot, the range has all but burned up.

What's in my ears?

Another unplanned trip to a pediatrician's office. No serious ailment while I was on vacation so I was cleared to fly.

Sittin' on the dock

I left 100-degree weather in Kansas for cooler weather in New England. By the time I go to bed, it's about 65 degrees. Nice.
