Happy Hollow Zoo

We went to the San Jose zoo with Papa Lum. I got to see a pot bellied pig and ride on the carousel. It was a little scary, but Daddy was there to catch me.

Table Food

I got to try my first taste of table food. We went to Buca di Beppo's for dinner. Daddy gave me a slice of apple from his salad. At first it was a little tart, but the flavor grew on me and I nibbled on a few slices before the meal was over.

A week later, we went to a barbecue at "Auntie" Sharon's. I got to sink my teeth into some real Big People food - Corn on the Cob. It was sweet & yummy!!!

Reading with Daddy

Mmm . . .

So, I'm a paper junkie. I like to eat paper. Mommy feeds my habit by letting me check the mail with her everyday when we get home from daycare.

Young & Old

Papa Lum came out to visit me. We had lots of fun.

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Today is a very special day for Mommy. It's her very first Mother's Day. Daddy & I picked out this card for her to tell her how much we love her and appreciate all the things she does for us.


Then we took her to the Outback Steakhouse for a Bloomin' Onion & Prime Rib. Can't wait till I have more teeth so I can sink them into a juicy steak. I just know I'm gonna be a meat'n'potatoes man.

First Shopping Cart Adventure

We took a family outing to the local Lowe's. Daddy says I'll become quite familiar with this store. Anyway, I got to ride in the shopping cart for the first time. I'm a Big Boy now! It was fun being able to see everything.

Chomp chomp

With four teeth, I can really practice my Mike Tyson moves. Daddy gave me easy access to his ears by putting me on his shoulders. I just couldn't resist. :-)

Top Two Teeth!!!

My top two teeth broke through at the same time. WHAT A RELIEF!!! Now I can bite down real good.

Sea Ranch Weekend

We went up the coast to Sea Ranch for some R&R. I'd been there before when I was just a wee baby, when all I did was eat and sleep. This time I had a lot more fun. The 'Rents brought my pack-n-play for me to sleep in for the first time along with some of my favorite toys. I got to see lots of wild life right from our house. These wild turkeys woke us up the first morning with all their gobbling. They're pretty funny looking. They kept circling the house. Later, I got to see some deer eating grass in our yard. There were also lots of birds flying in and out of the trees in front of the big picture window. We could even see ocean from that window. Eventhough we brought along my portable booster chair, I got to sit in a high chair for the first time when we went out to eat. I had fun banging stuff on the table. Afterwards, Mommy bought me my first finger food snacks - biscuits and veggie puffs. The biscuits were quite tasty, but they make a huge mess. Daddy let me eat half of one in the car while he changed my diaper, but he took it away as soon as he was done. When we got to the house, Mommy let me have a veggie puff. For being veggie flavored, they weren't too bad. Must be the artificial cheese flavor. Overall, it was a pretty jam packed weekend, not much rest for Mommy & Daddy. We ate out a couple times, visited the Point Arena Lighthouse, watched "Happy Feet" and "Walk the Line", and just chilled out. The BIG HIGHLIGHT was that I finally figured out how to get my tummy off the ground and get up on my hands & knees. Once I did that, I figured out how to rock to & fro. I was a rockin' machine. Mommy caught it on video - check out the next blog entry.

Food Update Part Deux - Bananas

Mommy fed me bananas for breakfast. They were yummy. They might even be better than rice cereal. I couldn't get enough. Finished the whole container in record time. I was gonna scream for more, but Mommy gave me a bottle so I was content. She says she'll give me more tomorrow. :-)

Food Update

The 'Rents finally got around to giving me fruit this weekend. They started off with applesauce. Frankly, I dunno what all the fuss is about. I really didn't care for it. In fact, I'm pretty sure I just don't like it. I gave it try. I ate half a container the first day. Then Mommy mixed the other half in my cereal for breakfast which wasn't too bad - I think the cereal masked the tartness. But when Mommy tried again, I decided I'd had enough after a few spoonfuls. It's just not tasting any better. Give me green veggies anyday over this sour stuff or better yet give me more squash and sweet potatoes. Carrots are just a tad too sweet; although, I could probably learn to like them. Anyway, I hope fruits get better. Cooper and Khai seemed to like them a lot, so there must be something to them.

Another Nice Weekend

The heatwave continued all week. I got to roll around in the grass for the first time. It tickled my toes and made me laugh. We're staying cool in the shade in this pic.

Snoozing in the Sun

We got a heat wave this weekend, so Mommy and I soaked up some rays in the backyard. I took a nice long nap on my tummy for the first time.

Designer Duds

I'm sporting my new Kenneth Cole clothes - mommy got them on sale. Unfortunately, they're a tad too small so she's gonna return them for a larger size.

Exploring My Exersaucer

Hey, who put these gadgets on my Exersaucer when I wasn't looking? I never noticed them before.

I've been practicing my sitting . . .

Still need the boppy for a little security, but I'm getting better everyday.
