Flashback Sundays

Last year I loved spending my Saturday mornings with Daddy at Gymboree. He was so funny in class. Here he is with Gymbo trying to make me giggle. It looks like Blake was also having some fun that Saturday too.

From the day I was born, Mommy was so worried that I was not growing and eating enough. She charted my eating and sleeping in excel until I was nine months old. Here I am weighing in for the week at an even sixteen pounds.

Here is one of Mommy's all-time favorite pictures of me!

Swim Class

Yesterday I had my weekly swim class in the nice, warm pool at the JCC. Here we are in class with all our friends. Can you spot us?

I am pretty comfortable going under water now, but I always love it when Lew makes Mommy go under too. Here I am watching Mommy practice her under water skills.

One of my favorite parts of swim class is when we sit on the ledge and then jump in for Humpty Dumpty. Here we are all lined up and ready to go. I am double checking Mommy's judgement of putting me so close to the box thing.

Shop & Shake

Today Big T met up with me in midtown for a little shopping at Saks. We found this woof woof on the children's floor and had a great time sitting and playing with him. I hope Santa knows how much I love woofs.

After all the excitement on the children's floor, it was time for some Mommy fun. While the Mommies were having their fun shopping, Miss Yai kept an eye on us. We had so much fun pushing the rack around the sales floor. Thank goodness everyone thought we were so cute.

We worked up quite an appetite shopping, so Miss Yai treated us with dinner at The Burger Joint. We are big fans of the music there and love to dance on the banquette, so the Mommies were shocked when we both sat and ate nicely like big boys for a little bit. Thank you Miss Yai.

Crunch Crunch

Yesterday I spent the afternoon in the park crunching lots and lots of leaves. The Mommies were wishing for a rake the whole time. I suggested using Big T's dump truck, but they made do with their hands and feet.

I think they did a pretty good job making a pile without one. Here I am with Moosie playing in the leaves. I was trying to teach him how to throw them in the air, but he liked just rolling around in them instead.

Here we are all having a little cracker snack at the end of a fun day in the leaves.

Working Out With Miss Yai

Yesterday I went to gym class with Miss Yai and what a workout we had. First, we started out with some push ups. Miss Yai told me that she would do her twenty after I did mine, I should have known better....

After the push ups we played a little one-on-one. I took it easy on her, but here I am flaunting a little after a slam dunk.

She was pretty tired after we played basketball, so she took it easy while I jumped on the trampoline. I've been getting better, but still haven't caught any air yet...

Trick-Or-Treat

Halloween finally came and we were all so excited. I was particularly happy because it would be the last time I had to suit up.

Before I went trick-or-treating I stopped by Gemma's house for a party. Thanks April, Guy and Gemma, I had such a wonderful time!

Here I am at the party having so much fun playing with all of Gemma's toys.

Halloween was much more fun this year. I got to walk the street, trick-or-treat and see all the great costumes. The street was so festive because so many buildings did a fabulous job with their decorations.

Here I am trick-or-treating for the first time! I wasn't really sure how the whole thing worked the first time I did it, but I started to get the hang of it when I kept getting compliments and candy.

In the end I didn't get to try any of the candy I worked so hard for, but Mommy said maybe next year. I am already getting so excited. Hope that you all had as much fun as I did this Halloween!

Flashback Sundays

Here are some then and now pictures from last Halloween with my friends. Last year I was a lion and my friends were a flower, tootsie roll, tiger, Shrek, lobster and a pumpkin....

and this year although we didn't sit as well as last year, in that same order from last year, they became Master Yoda, Mr. Bee, devil, elephant and puppy...

Here is a picture of me with Big T as a monkey last year at Babyfingers class on Halloween....

And here I am with Big Moosie and Little Moosie this year sitting on the ledge....

Last year we were all new friends who met at 69th street for our first Halloween together. My friends were a duck, a monkey, another duck and a ladybug...

and this year in that same order from last year's pic, they became Max, Moosie, a strawberry and a princess...
