Colorado Adventures

Frogs!

There was a floor to ceiling tank full of turtles, fish and sharks and it was fun to watch them all float around.

Soon enough I'll be able to reach the peddles and see over the stearing wheel.

I had all sorts of fun in Colorado! In addition to visiting with family I got to swim at the hotel swimming pool, visit with our friends the Kubiks, drive the rental car and go to the aquarium with our friends the Dancels. All of that sandwiched between 2 airplane flights is all that a little boy can ask for in a holiday weekend.

Hang Time

In the midst of various family time, Noah and I had some hang out time in the hotel in Colorado. Noah got a Mr. Potato Head toy for the trip and thought that he should be part of the family for the weekend.

Me and Uncle Scott

This past week Uncle Scott and Aunt Ericka got married in Colorado, so we headed out west. They got married by a JP and then had a casual backyard reception party. It was fun to spend time getting to know my family.

Water Table

Last year for my birthday, Gran bought me a water table. The other day it was so hot that it was time to break out the water table. I had a blast! Most of the water was splashed out, and I was soaking wet when playtime was over but I look forward to lots more water table fun this summer!

Harvard Degree

Talk about overachiever, I just earned my first Master's degree from Harvard University. Ok, so I was actually in a research study with Children's Hospital studying infant memory of social interactions. Although it's still early in the study, I behaved perfectly and am helping to confirm the hypothesis that even at my young age I remember social interactions. Who knew?

In case you don't get the connection, Children's is connected to Harvard in Boston, so the research team pulled a few strings and got me a degree.

Lucky Rabbit's Foot

As I've master the skill of grasping, my favorite thing to grab is my rabbit's foot. People say that they're lucky, so I'm holding on tight.

Ida

Ida is Mads' sister, and she's super nice to me. Today she was helping me play on my new slide and we were having lots of fun, or at least I was having lots of fun. I really wanted to play, so it was hard to get a great photo, but mummy was trying.

Little Tikes

As a surprise, mummy & daddy bought me a used Little Tikes play structure. It's awesome and I love it! I see lots of summer fun ahead.

Lily Pad

While Noah and Sam where playing, Lily and I were sleeping and vice versa. Us girls were a little more cooperative then the boys for posing for pictures for our pajama party.

Pajama Party

Check out my cool socks. It's getting warm enough I don't need my sleepsack, but I don't like to sleep with bare feet and requested socks.



My good buddy, Sam, came over tonight for a pajama party. Actually we do a babysitting swap with his parents and it was our turn to host. Mummy tried to get a cute picture of us, but she said that it was like herding cats, so this was the best she could do.

Backyard Again

Blowing bubbles


While daddy and Noah were playing I was just kicking around and mummy got some photos that she wanted to share......

Backyard Games

Daddy came back from a week-long work trip and we had some family funtime in the backyard to celebrate. A great time was had by all.

Little People

Me, Lily & Tristian

Late January/early February was a popular birth time for lots of my friends. The other day a few of those friends came over to play. Tristian was born about 2 1/2 weeks after me and Lily 3 weeks. Our mummy's were talking about how it's easy to think that all babies look alike, but that when we hang out together it's obvious we're all our own little people.

Thinking Inside the Box

Sometimes it's too much effort to take all my toys out, so I'll just crawl into my toy box to play.

I Love My Brother

I love all of my family, but there is a special place in my heart for my brother. Whenever he pays any attention to me I just can't help but break into a smile. Mummy hopes that this has good implications for our future.

Gotcha!

This weekend we all went up to New Hampshire so that mummy & daddy could participate in our church's couples retreat. Things didn't go so well, as Noah and I didn't really have a lot of fun, so we left early. We actually weren't happy until we were home, and as you can see, we made the drive home lots of fun for everyone! Gotcha!
