Following in my Brothers Stick Hits

I am not sure if these are instruments of music or instruments of war. I've seen Brandon smacking rubber pads masterfully in time with some great music so apparently in the right hands they are for entertainment.


I have also seen Brother smacking everything within stick reach in such chaotic rhythms that I crawl for my life. Although I like watching Brandon play, I think I like using them more like Brother does. These are Sticks of War.

My First Train Ride

"WEEEEE!!!!"

I'm beginning to understand what Brother sees in trains. They are a lot of fun. I really wanted to crawl around under the seats while we were cruising through the fields of pineapples but Daddy wouldn't let me. I did grab the lady in front of us though. That was fun.

Oh man, Hawaiian music and a clacking train ride sure do make for a good time.

Measure Me Up Mommy!

So Mommy's Mommy wanted to see how big I am, so Mommy kept trying to get a shot of me against something familiar. I gladly cooperated but brother was being a bit of a stinker. One stipulation was Mommy's Mommy wanted to see us in our diapers so she could get a feel for how big we are. So here we are in all our splendor. As close to the way we were the day we were born as is allowed.


This is one of brother and me before he got angry about something. He's been a bit off since he lost Nemo.

A "Fun" Day

So tonight after Mommy and Daddy talked to Aleric about not being careful around me, they figured that he probably need to burn off some energy. He really loves to bounce so we went down to the mall and he got to bounce as long as he wanted at this new place that just opened. I got to ride on Daddy's shoulders and we played on the soft red grass. I practiced my standing while Brother was off flying up and down this gigantic slide!

This isn't the greatest shot of Daddy but I look darn cute wouldn't you say?

My Fancy New Dress

A package came in the mail today, it was a big surprise to me. There was a beautiful dress and a really cute swim suit just for me. I wore the dress as soon as I could and I love it. It looks so cute on me all I have to do is smile at someone and they give me what I want! I am pretty pleased with myself in this picture, both because the dress looks fabulous on me and because I am so close to free standing on my own!

I'm Getting It!

I'm getting so close to walking! I can feel it in my legs, they are getting more stable and I can walk along walls and couches and toys and Daddy legs and Mommy legs and Brothers! There are more things I can walk along but you get the point. I can also crawl long distances now which is nice, I had fun crawling at the park the other day.
Brother has been most helpful in my training. He is showing me the ropes every day, in fact just yesterday he helped my master stair crawling. Mommy and Daddy aren't too pleased but I sure am.

"Are you looking at me?"

In The Pursuit of Happiness

I'm actually pursuing some balls from the ball pit, not happiness, but those shiny little suckers sure are fun to chase around the room. I didn't know Daddy had the camera out when I was chasing this one. I've been concealing the fact that I can crawl for about a month now by only doing it when no one is looking at me. I did this because I know that once the adults become aware that I can crawl, they'll stop putting yummy cheerios where I can get to them and they might even make me get my own bottles if I drop them! Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag now so enjoy this video.
