My New Ride

My 1st Official Movie

So, I'd seen several movies at the theater when I was an infant. The last one we attempted to see when I was a toddler was The Bourne Ultimatum which lasted all of 15 minutes. I kept wanting to run around the theater showing off my newly acquired walking skills. So, the 'rents aborted that outing. Almost 2 years later, we returned to the theater to watch UP! in Disney 3D. We have the storybook, so I was eager to see the movie. I kept asking "How coming the movie isn't starting???" every 30 seconds thru ALL the commercials and previews. Finally, it started. I sat attentively on my booster seating with my 3D glasses on and popcorn in hand for the first hour. Then I got restless, I shed the glass and watched the remaining half hour standing up peaking above the row of seat in front of us. Afterwards, I got to have a scoop of bubblegum ice cream. Yummy!

Rub-A-Dub-Dub, Goofing Off in the Tub

Note the multiple stamps on my right hand for going potty on the toilet, and the tatoo on my left hand that I have no idea what it is.

Bend It Like Beckham

Daddy and I have been taking soccer classes together. I've been learning the basics like kicking & dribbling. Mommy came to visit us on the last day of class. The local elementary school was having a Park Day, so I had a hard time concentrating. But I did get around to practicing my BIG KICKS. I also played a dribbling game where you dribble the ball to a colored cone then dribble over to the same colored flag and put the cone over the flag. I collected 6 cones. I was also excited to play a game where we put coach to "sleep" by hitting her ankles with the ball, and we wake her up by yelling "Wake Up Coach". I liked putting her to sleep more. I tagged her 4 times. Lastly, we practiced kicking goals. I made THREE. Next, Daddy and I are gonna take swimming classes to I can learn how to swim.

Gilroy Gardens w/ Drake

We met up with Drake and his parents at Gilroy Gardens. We had fun riding the Illions Supreme Carousel, Bulgy the Goldfish, Tubs-O-Fun, Strawberry Sundae, and South County Backroads together. I also rode on Artichoke Dip and Balloon Flight. We enjoyed watching the Musical Market show while we ate Mexican food from Miguelito's Taqueria. It was a fun day.





P.S. I'm not afraid of carousels anymore!

LegoLand

We flew down to Orange County today and drove to LegoLand. We could have gotten to the park when the gates opened at 10AM, but we ended up grabbing breakfast in town (Carlsbad). Headed over to the park around 11AM. We stayed there for SIX hours, shutting the park down. I had a blast. I was tall enough for almost all the rides. However, we underestimated the size of the park and barely explored half it. Highlights included Coastersaurus on Dino Island; Safari Trek, Fairy Tale Brook, and Water Works with its musical fountain in Explore Village; Sky Patrol and the LEGO Factory Tour at Fun Town; The Hideaways (a huge multi-level play structure) and lunch at the Knights' Table Barbecue in Castle Hill; the detailed reproductions of San Francisco, Washington D.C., NYC, Las Vegas, and New Orleans and the Coast Cruise with other notable landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Sidney Opera House in Miniland USA; laser gun fun of the Lost Kingdom Adventure and Cargo Ace in the Land of Adventure. I can't wait to go back.

Golden Gate Bridge made out of legos.
