Summer fun

Sorry its been so long since I posted anything, but we've been on the road again traveling. We kicked off our travels with a trip to Palos Verdes, CA for a short trip with mommy for a work trip she had to take. Me and Daddy stayed a couple days and we rented bikes and rode along Redondo Beach and saw seals at the harbor. I also went swimming at the hotel pool which I loved! We stayed only a couple days because mommy had to focus on work and we were too much of a distraction. Daddy was very nervous about flying home alone with me, but I was an angel as usual on the plane so it was no sweat and he's ready to do it again anytime!

Then after mommy got home we left for Boston for a week to visit our family in Natick, MA and go to my cousin Kasey's high school graduation party. It was so much fun to see all our family since it had been almost a year. I played with a bunch of different cousins and went to a really cool zoo with my aunt bubby that had the cutest baby goats that I could pet. I also got to see a bunny that lives in my grandpa and grandma's yard. My grandpa puts food out on the back porch every morning and the squirrels, bunny, birds and chipmunks come to eat it. It's like Wild Kingdom. I would sit and eat my breakfast and watch them eat theirs.

I wish we didn't live so far away from our family so I could play with my cousins all the time. I told mommy we're going to have to take more frequent trips than once a year to see them.

Here are some pictures and videos from both trips. Next up, Cabo!

Crib Buddies

Today at naptime I decided to line all my crib buddies up and cover them with my favorite blanket so they could all take nappies together. Mommy took a count and I'm up to nine buddies I sleep with. Each morning I pick and chose which ones are lucky enough to come out of the crib for the day and play with me. Bunny (the dirty white one in the middle) is always at the top of the list, but lately I like my Otter (who we call otterpop) and my duck. He's new to the group.

As you can see, its getting pretty crowded in my crib and I'm running out of space to sleep. That's my new ploy to get mom and dad to let me sleep with them:)

21 Months and Counting

I am 21 months now and have lived in WA for a year! Amazing how time flies. We've been busy lately making the most of the good weather we recently started having. Below are some pictures of me in my daily life, hiking and at the zoo.

I am talking up a storm and repeat pretty much everything mommy and daddy say. I love to go to the park and walk the dogs (I can say all their names and love repeating them constantly) I love pizza and I still have to take bunny (I call him "bun" for short) everywhere we go.
Enjoy!
Some of my favorite things (bun & purses)

Going Shopping

One of my favorite toys is my stroller and I like to push my bunny and other stuffed animals around in it. I also like to carry around mommy's purses and other bags whenever I push my stroller around. Here's a picture of me getting ready to roll out the door at any moment with all my favorite things.
