The Artist Within

I woke up from my nap and saw a dreary day, so I called some friends over for an impromptu art session. There was definitely no shortage of talent in the room. We all had so much fun and I created my first painting.

Getting creative and working on my masterpiece with a paper towel roll.

If you think I look messy you should have seen the apartment. Thanks to everyone for helping Mommy clean up!

Not a Box

One of my favorite books is called Not A Box, by Antoinette Portis. It is all about a bunny and all the fun he has with his not-a-box. Sometimes it can be a race car, a mountain or even a rocket ship. Today one arrived for me and I was so excited to play with it.

Here I am pretending my not-a-box is my crib....

All done playing and enjoying my favorite apple.

Fat Lip

I woke up from my nap jumping up and down in my crib because I was so excited for my trip to the Children's Museum. All that jumping led to a knock against the crib rail and a fat lip. I took it like a champ and forgot all about it after a couple hugs and kisses.

I had so much fun visiting the Discover Ancient Greece exhibit and doing some homework before by big trip at the end of summer.


Here I am training to be a firefighter.

Summer Scorcher

I treated Mommy and Daddy to a little extra sleep this morning by waking up at 7am. They were so happy they let me eat anything I wanted for breakfast. I have a baby accent, so "apple" comes out more like "appa," but they seem to get it.

Today the temperature got up past 90 degrees, so I hit the pool in the morning and the Terrace in the afternoon. I borrowed a stroller and enjoyed pushing it through the fountains to cool off.

There was a little bit of a sharing incident at the Terrace, but I cut a deal with Mommy, early bedtime and no post of the embarrassing picture. Here I am looking handsome for my date with Sleep at 6:15pm.

Flashback Sundays

Here are some pictures of me from a year ago. Mommy can't believe that I was ever that little. Only 11 weeks old, but already supporting my team.

They were new at the whole baby-thing back then, so I wore this funny hat to sleep every night for a very long time.

Here we all are in the apartment for a family picture. We all look so much younger.

Daddy Zzzzzzs....

After Daddy came home from a visit to the office we caught a couple zzzzs together before heading out for some afternoon fun.

I met up with P'Stella at the Arthur Ross Terrace to play in the fountains and run around a little. Here she is pushing me in my trike. I have to admit it, I was a little nervous, but that's what helmets are for!

Garbage Day

Today I pulled my own weight around the house and helped Daddy take the garbage out. Here I am with the recycling bag on my way to the trash chute. Its my favorite chore next to emptying the dishwasher.

For all my good work Mommy took me to the zoo to pet the animals. I visited the guinea fowls, feed the alpacas and hatched from an egg.
