My First Hair Cut

I went to Cool Cuts in Rancho Cucamonga today to get my very first haircut. Mommy decided to take me here because it is a place jsut for kids, and I got to sit in this cool car! I wasn't really sure about getting a hair cut though...

And then she started. My curls, my curls! What have you done with my curls! That's what Mommy said... I on the other hand was crying because those clippers scared me!
So not a fan.

The scissors weren't so bad, though. Plus I got to suck on my fingers and watch Mickey Mouse on TV.

There they are, my curls... all gone.

I look so different! I don't even look like me anymore! It's weird. I didn't even want to look at the camera! Mommy says at least I look like a boy now, but she doesn't care for it, it is too short she says. Daddy says he likes it and that his Boy has turned into a Man. He he... I do look older!

tee hee

JCPenny Pictures

Mommy took me to JCPenney today for my I AM ONE pictures. She didn't like them very much, but loved these first few. She and Daddy are finally convinced I need a hair cut! YAY! I cannot wait to get this mop cleaned up! :)

Walking Backward

I can walk backward! The chart on my door says I should be doing that when I am 2 1/2! But look at me, I can do it now! I did it for the first time last night and again tonight. Mommy and Daddy seem to think it is pretty cool.

I also love to dance! I mostly like to move my arms up and down, but also like to turn in circles a lot when dancing! FUN!

Redlands Air Show

Mommy and I went to the Redlands Air Show today with Trent and his Mommy, Ashley.

WOW! Look at that airplane go! I don't think I have ever seen an airplane in the sky before. Mommy says really big ones fly in the sky above us all the time. I will have to keep my eyes peeled.

Amazing!

We got to go inside a firetruck even! No Smoking!

Look at all the planes.

Thanks for inviting us along with you Trent and Ashley!

It was hot, so I got to go swimming when we got home... actually I stood in the cold water in my pool while Mommy spritzed me with the spray bottle... ooo, that feel so good. He he he.

Scrambled Eggs

I love scrambled eggs. I had them for the first time today and they are so good, especially with cheese!

I like day care!

HI!

I love to go to daycare and see all my friends. They just crack me up! It is so much fun to watch them be silly and run around. They share with me and I share with them. Miss Janiel told Mommy today (again, as she does every day!) that she thinks I am the best ever and that if everyone had babies like me, everyone would have tons of babies! She also told her that I smile all the time, all day. It's true, life is so great!

Mommy has been trying to get me to drink this cold, white stuff. YUCK! Even warmed up, yuck! I like my bottle and my formula now, why is she trying to give me MILK. Ewww.

I have been eating lots of different things though, and do like cold water now. Mommy and Daddy always share their dinners with me. I love meat, that's for sure. Miss Janiel says I am a good eater, the best one at her day care, and there are lots of older kids! I do like food, what can I say? I have also discovered black beans, with a little cinimon and sugar warmed up... yummy!

It has been cool outside this week, so I have been wearing sleeves and pants. They felt a little weird at first, sleeves on my arms, but since I can't pull or bite them off, I just got used to it. :) I do like my overalls though! And with this nice weather, Mommy and I go for a walk everyday when we get home. I love going for walks, even though I can only make it about half way around the little block. Mommy won't let me walk without holding her hand either. Oh well. I guess holding her hand is okay, for now. I do get to see the neighbors and the doggies and so many cars. I like watching the cars go by! Today I saw someone raking leaves and his Daddy doing some yard work and I just couldn't get enough of watching them! I can't wait till I can do that stuff. People watching is so fun. Mommy says I shouldn't stare though. He he.

stacking blocks and my new pumpkin

I love stacking blocks now.

See how good I am at it?!

I also got a new Pumpkin Pillow! It's the best!

Visit with Dr. Clark today

Today Mommy and I went to see Dr. Clark for my one year checkup. I weigh 19.3.6 pounds (5th percentile still) and am 29 1/2 inches long. Dr. Clark also doesn't think I am allergic to Penicillin! And she suspects I didn't even have Strep Throat... interesting! She didn't seem to have a very high opinion of Urgent Care's care... hmmm. Regardless, I am all healthy now!!

She also siad it is time to stop with the bottle and drink whole milk and to bruch my teeth with a baby toothpaste twice a day and to eat everything Mommy and Daddy eat (except to be careful with nuts). I got some shots and boy did it hurt, but once Mommy picked me up and I could put my fingers in my mouth, I was okay. I see her again in 3 months.

Look at me goooo! And check out those bandaids!

Mommy and I went for a walk today too, and this walk didn't involve a stroller or baby carrier! That's right, I held Mommy's hand and walked all the way round our little block!!! It was so much fun! I even got ot step on a crunchy leaf, and I saw lots of dogs, and all sorts of cars and trees and flowers! It was fun to point at everything! I love walking!

My Birthday Party

Finally! Here are pictures from my JUNGLE Birthday Party!! Mommy made a few games. This was one of them - everyone had to try to put these pictures of me in the corect order, they were all taken one month apart. No one got them all right! Mommy also had the Noah quiz, which Yia Yia won.

Mommy also made this game, Feed The Monkey! I LOVE this game and am really good at it! Auntie Karen!
All my friends got to make a craft. They made monkeys out of baby food jars. Here are JT and Lili working hard.

And we all got to color jungle anumal pictures. Here are Michelle, Kai, Anna and Jillian.

I got to color too!

This is one of the cakes we had. That's a picture of me on the cake, in my Halloween monkey costume!

And here is my Monkey Cake. Mommy made me my very own banana cake.

Everyone was watching me eat.

I am going to get you, monkey!

Mmmm, this is good.

We also had a super cool pool for the party. I can't wait till I am big enough to play in it, it looks like so much fun! Here are Lil and my cousin Sydney playing!

Presents!!

I got so much cool stuff! This is my Jungle Buddies picutre that Auntie Karen made for me!

There were so many people there! Grandma flew in from Seattle fot the party, sadly Gruncle Dean wasn't able to come last minute. But Yia Yia and Papa were there, and my Auntie Summer and cousin Sydney. JT and Lili. Karen and Seth and Cameron. Michelle, Matt, Anna, Jillian and Kai. It was hot outside so we ended up not going to the park. Instead we had it at our house, which turned out great. I had lots of fun sharing all my toys and playing games and showing off my mad walking skills. It was super duper!

I want to thank everyone so very very much for coming! I know a lot of you traveled really far to be here with me and it means a lot to me and my family. We love you so very much and appreciate you lots! Thanks for all my awesome presents too!!

There are tons more pictures and some videos here in this slideshow! Please take the time to check them out! There are some good ones. :)
