wait a second....

Will I be getting any dipping sauce at this lunch? 

sugar time

After the aquarium we went out to lunch. The highlight of the meal for me was when I got to play with the sugar packs. 

aquarium

Today we went to the New England Aquarium. I got very serious as soon as we arrived because the whole thing was so unbelievable. No one told me we would be seeing fish and penguins. I was a very overstimulated little boy! 

tomorrow

Nonni is coming tomorrow. I can even say her name now. 

lovie

My mother loves me SO MUCH. She just can not get enough of me! I can be really obnoxious too. Today at Whole Foods Market I kept yelling and screaming "Gook-Gee" (which is my word for Cookie) over and over again. No one seemed to think it was cute except my mother, who bought me these very tasty cookies, and then wiped the chocolate chips off my face, hands, hair, coveralls, socks and stroller. I am worth it. I really, really am. 

brushing

I'm very interested in brushing my hair these days. Its normal for me to get a brush or comb from the bathroom and bring it to my mother so that she can brush my hair. I do this about five times a day. My hair always looks shiney and nice. 

Wiggles

Here I am watching my Wiggles DVD. 

happy times

Here's how happy I was to see Maite! Joetta was less happy though. 

ravioli for dinner

Tonight my parents are going to the Banff Mountain Film Festival and Tia Maite is babysitting me. Last time she babysat me I was WONDERFUL but Joetta was a big pain. She whined the whole time. Tonight Joetta is going to stay in her dog crate while Maite is babysitting.

apple

I insisted on having this apple after dinner. I kept reaching for it and whining until Dad finally gave it to me. Its good that I want fruit, but I like to poke holes in the skin with my teeth instead of eating it. When I finally do bite a piece of the apple off, I give it to Joetta who usually won't touch it.

park

Nora and I at the park. 

Zachary

Zachary is super cute (even though I didn't see him!). He has light brown hair and is very rosey. He's coming home from the hospital next week.

pillow

Amy's pillow was comfy to sit on.

new baby

On Monday Nora and I waited in Aunt Amy's hospital room while Amy and Uncle Jake went to visit with baby Zachary. We aren't positive his name is Zachary, but since Uncle Jake already refers to him as "Zack" we think its almost definitely going to be his name. I think I might have been annoying Nora. She just wanted to relax and I kept rolling around and disturbing her.

can you believe....

Can you believe these are my parents?! 

swimming

On Sunday I went swimming at the YMCA. Aren't my swim trunks cute!? My parents thought that since I probably don't remember the last time I was in the pool it was time to reintroduce me to being in the water. This wasn't easy. At first I wanted to jump in the water, but then I started screaming when it touched me. I am a very sensitive toddler! Then, after 30 minuntes of sitting on the stairs looking at the water I was ready to get in the pool. I didn't want to get out for an entire hour. When I got home I took a long afternoon nap, which is unusual for me. It was a GOOD day!

zoo toy

Gramma got me this really cool Little People Zoo toy for Christmas, only I didn't get to open it until now because we moved. It has an animal for every letter of the alphabet. The Flamingo is my favorite. I carry it everywhere with me.

New Jersey

This weekend we went to New Jersey to visit Gramma and Pop. Here I am at Pop's house eating a lollipop. This is the first lollipop I've been able to keep for longer than 5 seconds. I really liked it!
