Giraffes and Elephants and Frogs, oh my!

Tia took me to the zoo! We saw so many cool animals!

Giraffes have reeeeaaaallly long necks!

And elephants have reeeaalllyy long noses.

Monkeys are cute, but I don't see why my big sister is all ga-ga about them...they didn't do much except sit around.

This caterpillar was really big! I wanted to go somewhere else.

My mommy changed my diaper IN PUBLIC. How embarrassing!

This frog was the coolest! We really connected.

I told my Tia, "oh my goodness, frogs are amazing, thanks for taking me to the zoo!"

Our little worm, a little artist...

More fun at Studio Grow...

Fun at Studio Grow!

First I got to eat in my own little CHAIR!

Then I played ball with the other kids.

(this is me tossing the ball)

There was this parachute thing, but I didn't really get it...

In another room there were animals to play with...if only I could see real animals some day...

And here I was able to express my inner feelings...

oh, and paint my hand! :-)

What can I say? I like to eat!

Signing, Walking, Puzzling, and Dropping

These videos are from April 5th, and G is actually talking and walking even more now (those videos are coming soon), but it is cool to see the progression.


Signing "help" (closes both fists) and "book" (hands together and opening like a book), while walking (wobbling).


Putting in the pig puzzle piece (puzzle courtesy of Louie via Grandma).



My favorite G word: "Uh-oh"

A Boy and His Wagon...and The Park!

I can say "Bubbles" now! My first two syllable word (well, you know, besides mama of course).

Don't I look Soooooo big in my little outfit?

Whooo Hooo!

Papa D will turn me into a Cal Bears fan yet!

New (to us) Play Structure!

Our neighbors Jim and Christy passed on their play structure to us a couple of weeks ago. G LOVES it!

Zoomzoom, drivin' in the car, here we go, here we go...

Trip to Florida

On the plane I liked to read...

and drink lots of water. I sat on my mamas laps, which was cuddly.

When I got to Florida there were NEW books for me to read...

and my cousin Louie to read them to me.

I enjoyed eating seashells on the beach.

And I realized that my grandpa has curly hair on his chest. Cool.

I did my best to stay out of the sun.

My cousin Louie played in the sand.

And so did I! I loved playing in the sand!!!

I also loved the water! Grandpa held my hands and kept me safe.

My mama played with Louie. She let him dive over her shoulders. When I'm bigger, I want to do that, too.

Do you like my new beach outfit? Surf the waves, dude.

Easter with Bailey

My big sister Bailey was in town after easter and we played in the park together. She hid plastic easter eggs that had Cheerios in them! I found them all! And, Bailey got some cool new glasses that I dig a lot. I can't wait until I'm older and have to wear glasses, too. Check us out...
