Gymnastics

I don't think I can really say how much I enjoy Gymnastics. Not only do I get to dance and jump and climb and roll, I get to hang out with Daddy too! The only problem is that once I start getting into an activity, they tell me that it's time to move on to the next one. This leads to me throwing tantrums (can anyone say embarassing?). This week I started to get the hang of tumbles and a few more parts to that dance we did last week. The trampoline is fun but my feet still can't agree on which one of them should leave the ground when I try to jump. I almost mastered the balance beam. I can place one foot solidly in front of the other but when I get near the end of the beam I get distracted by the prospect of stepping off that I often lose my footing. All said, this was one great idea by Mommy!

Easter Eggs!!

Coloring eggs is a lot of fun. My approach was to throw the eggs into the cup in hopes that the splash would color Daddy as well as the eggs. He didn't find it as funny as I did though. Once I figured it has sat in one cup long enough I would pretend to reach for it so that Daddy would take it out and place it into the next cup I pointed at. It was in this fashion that I created the beautiful eggs displayed in this post.

Privacy?

Lately Aleric has been peeing in the stationary potty instead of relying on the portable, wearable version that I prefer. I'm not sure why he would do that so in an effort to understand his motives I gave it a shot myself. He was very encouraging and even offered to sit with me. Mommy found this very funny and whipped out the camera.

Stuck!!!

Once again, I manage to get my self stuck and Daddy, instead of saving me, rushes for the camera and takes a picture before extracting me! It is infuriating when he does this but I guess he does get me out eventually and he tells me that I will laugh at this with him some day. For now though, I will not laugh. Not even once.

Eating... It's Hard Work.

Pre-meal snacks are for losers. I attack every meal with zeal and gusto. Utensils? Pah, who needs em. God gave me two hands for the very purpose of shoveling food into my mouth as fast as possible. He also gave me a Daddy to clean those hands when I'm done with them. See? He thought of everything!

Eating like I do uses up a lot of energy though and once I'm full, sleep sometimes gets me before I can escape my highchair. Mommy apparently thinks this is funny enough to share with you all.

Pigtails

These are my very first pigtails.

You can kind of see the remnants of the black eye I got at the park 3 days before this was taken.

I had Mommy take a picture of me with a dark background to highlight the pigtails for you all.

One final CHEESE for all of you to enjoy.

Bathing Greatness

I had some blue marker on my face so I convinced Aleric that he wanted a bath. I then watched him dance around like a mad man begging Daddy for a bath. Next thing I know, I'm helping Daddy run the water and jumping in! I eventually got the marker off of my face but in this picture you can still see it... covering my 'CHEESE' smile. Avynn sure is cute isn't he?
