11 months and counting...

Today is my 11 month birthday! Time flies when you're
having fun. I have hit so many milestones over the past month and everyday I change. This past month I started to take my first steps (up to 10 so far), got my top four front teeth and a new bottom one, and have started saying more words like doggie (da gee), yum and mama. And tonight, I started shaking my head "no" when mommy and daddy say it to me. Oh, and I also started dancing when I hear music.





I am loving living in Washington too. I have a bunch of new friends that I play with almost daily and I go to new parks every week with my friends. We also go for lots of walks with the dogs and into town for dinner at night.

I'm pretty much done with baby food. I like eating whatever mommy and daddy eat. My favorite things right now are cheerios for breakfast, yogurt and fruit for lunch, and chik n' nuggets (vegetarian) or vegie burger and some kind of vegetable for dinner. Oh, and Puffs are my favorite snack. Mommy buys me all different flavors and I snack on them throughout the day.

Since I love playing in the dirt so much lately mommy bought me a sand/water box this week. It is so much fun. Now I can mix water and dirt whenever I want (see pics below).

This week we're heading to Boston and Cape Cod to visit my grandparents and other family. I can't wait to go to the beach and play in the sand.



Talk to you soon,

I love Dirt

My latest obsession is dirt. I can't get enough of it and want to play in it all the time. So yesterday when mommy wasn't looking (and I couldn't go outside because it was raining) I noticed the plant in the kitchen had some dirt. I decided to dig into it, eat some, and throw the rest on the floor.
Here's a picture of me when mommy finally figured out why I was so quiet in the kitchen.

Can't wait to go to the beach next week in Cape Cod. I'm going to have a blast digging in the sand.

Happy Father's Day Daddy, I Love You!!

For Father's day my friends Kendall and
Jacob and I got together and painted picture frames for our daddy's. It was so much fun getting messy (and trying to eat the paint). Here are some pictures of me painting my first masterpiece, picking out my paint colors and getting messy.

Happy Father's Day to the best daddy ever! I love you very much.

My So-Called Life

Here are some recent photos and video of me in my daily life. Over the weekend my auntie Amber was here visiting and we had a great time! There's a picture of us at the Snoqualmie Falls that we hiked down to.

There's also a picture of me escaping from the gates that mommy has up so the doggies will leave us alone. Obviously, they don't work for me as I've figured out how to squeeze through them and escape!

I've been hanging out alot with my new friend Kendall. She comes over and hangs out with me and we go to different parks every week and play.

Enjoy my pics and talk to you soon.

Another Busy Weekend

We had another busy weekend here in the Emerald City.

Yesterday Daddy took me to The Little Gym and we played with the balls and the parallel bars and had a blast.

Today, the family (except Molly) went for another big hike at Twin Falls State Park. It's another beautiful hiking place but this one had waterfalls and a big river.

Oh, and earlier this week we walked to town for dinner and on our way we saw a HUGE frog on the sidewalk (see pic) and then the next night Mommy saw a deer walking down our street. This place is like Wild Kingdom!
