Sweet Peas Book Club

I went with Mom to a meeting of the Tempe Sweet Peas Book Club.
Mom made this awesome cake! And didn't let me have any of it.

Hmph! See if I care. I'll just sit here in my ball pit, then!

Actually, this is quite a good workout. Mostly cardio, since the balls are really light.

Colin and I played around for a long while.
Then, this being a Book Club, I read this book to mom.
If I keep working at it, I think I'll be able to teach her to read pretty soon.

Walking

My latest trick....

Puttin' on the Ritz!

So, the other day, my friend Ichiro had these new-fangled "Ritz Crackers." Have you heard about these things? They are so the new Goldfish, it seems.

This is a Ritz. I am about to try it.

HMmmmm-umph-mmmmmm... Tasty....


Survey says, "Yay!"

Wrapping Presents

I needed to wrap up a gift for a friend, so I took a seat in my box, and set to work!




And voilà! All wrapped! And not a bit of camera trickery!

First Strawberries

I have decided to branch out some in my diet, and so I told mom to get me some strawberries to try.

Aaah!

Ummph!

GIVE ME MORE STRAWBERRIES!

(Turns out that they gave me a skin rash, guess I'll stick to grapes!)

Celebrating

Time for a climb!

Arrrrrr!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Ha!

Climbing, climbing...

What's worth this big struggle, you might wonder...?

Ah, yes... There is it...

Just a little thing... A fragile little thing...

Happy Earth Day, everyone!

Colin's First Birthday!

Last Saturday was Colin's birthday! He had a big bash at his house. It was great!
Happy Birthday Colin!

Colin's grandma baked this awesome train cake! Wow! The whole train engine was a special mini-cake, just for Colin!

Colin and I played house for a while. He's screaming, because I'm playing Wilma, and he's Fred, so I've locked him out.

Colin? Where'd ya' go?

To the Slip-n-Slide! Woo-hoo!

Not to worry, Caden! You don't have to go for a slide!

Not a chance! Me neither!

Come play with me in the mini-pool!

Colin, get in here with me!

Zoo with Aunts Ari and Cindy!

On my birthday, I invited my aunts Ari an Cindy to the zoo! We had a great time!

You all know dad in the background and Grandma Mim on the left. That's Aunt Ari I'm looking at, and Aunt Cindy is right next to her. It was so nice of them to drive out from LA for my big day!

Wow! I just blinked, and Mom and Grandma swapped places!

Hmm..... I wonder if I can reach out and grab those sun glasses.... (two seconds later, not showing here: me holding them. Ha!)

Wow! Look at those warthogs!

Holy cow, are they ugly!

Um, ma'am? Are you sure you want to see them that close up?

Here's my imitation of a warthog, with it's big tusks! Not too bad, huh?

Eat up!

At my party, I wanted to be a good host! I figure that means making sure that everyone gets enough to eat. Whether they want to or not.

Colin: Um, actually, I'm kinda full...

Colin: Oh! Um, ermph...

Eat up! Goldfish are good for you!

Much better!

Drum Solo

My Aunt Diane and Uncle Mo got me a MUSIC SET for my birthday! They are awesome! I think that they got this for me because my dad was saying that we aren't a musical family, and that I probably wouldn't be a musician. We'll show 'em, right?










Unadulterated, noisy fun! Look out, Lars Ulrich!
