Hanging out with Daddy!

On my 3 week birthday we went on my first forest adventure! I hear Mom and Dad love the outdoors, so I was excited to see all the trees and stuff! We found HUGE pinecones, almost as big as me!!

Today we went to Prospect Park in Redlands. It was a beautiful day and breezy in the park! We found a stage even... and Tim performed an excellent rendition of Goldilocks and the Three Bears for us! Here he is as Goldilocks!

And here I am making a silly face during the show.

On the trail... making another silly face!

Prospect Park is pretty... views of orange groves and mountains.

And then... a nap!
