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.
