Nothing Special—Except Me!

It’s a good Saturday around our house. I’ve had my nap and lunch, so now I am full of energy.

Here I am riding my bicycle.

And, making a face. I’m not sure why I’m making this face, but you get what you get.

100_1564 

My parents think this is a better face to make.

An Afternoon of Fun

This afternoon, my Mommy, Daddy, and I went to the aquarium. It was so much fun.

Do you remember the wonder you see in my eyes?

100_1546 

I figured I might as well smile. The sting ray was smiling at me!

100_1547 

It looks like the sting ray is flying.

100_1548 

It’s hard to see, but there’s an eel just on the other side of the glass.

100_1549 

Mommy had a great idea to pet the sting rays. Mommy loves to touch stuff! Anyway, about 2 seconds after this picture, Mommy wished we hadn’t done this! You see, the sting rays thought we were about to feed them—so, they came up and splashed us from head to toe.

I’m trying to get as close as I can to the fish without getting wet.

100_1552 

How do I look as a seal?

100_1554 

Who said they were killer whales?

100_1555 

I’m so glad this turtle isn’t alive!

100_1556 

I’m a lot like my Mommy…I like to touch stuff as well.

100_1557 

This was a California eel. He was HUGE!

100_1558 

Mommy really likes the penguins. I have to admit. They are cute.

100_1559 

These two didn’t like seem to like the water. Or, they really just wanted us to see them up close.

Celebrating the Old Man

Yesterday was Daddy’s birthday. He said something about getting old.

So, to celebrate him getting old, Mommy and I took Daddy to breakfast.

Here’s Daddy eating a beignet.

100_1525 

I didn’t like the beignet, but I loved the powdered sugar!

100_1528 

This is why God gave us fingers.

100_1529 

And mouths!

100_1530 

Mommy, don’t look now, but I think we are about to be eaten by a crawfish!

100_1531 

Hurry Daddy, take the picture! It’s coming!

100_1532 

Why do I look so small next to that fountain? It must really be big!

100_1533 

Okay, can you pick out the joker? One hint, he’s holding me!

100_1534 

Here I am riding my first streetcar…

100_1536 

Okay, now for some serious pool time.

100_1539 

Mommy, I’ m not putting my toes in there! It’s cold!

100_1540 

I think I like it better out here.

100_1541 

Okay, if you are sure I should be in the pool, I’m going to hold on tight.

100_1542 

As you can tell, I can’t make up my mind. In the pool. Out of the pool.

100_1543 

Okay, I’ll stay in for a few minutes. Just be sure not to drop me.

When Daddy Babysits…

Here’s what happens when Daddy babysits me and not Mommy…

Summer Reading

Evan decided that he needed to spread out his books…and the best place to do that was in his inflatable pool. Thankfully, no water was in it at the time.

Hello World!

Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you!

100_1518 

I just had to have my picture today. But, I can’t be still, so the picture is just a little blurry. Sorry about that.

100_1519 

I hope you love a close up of my pretty white teeth. I just can’t be still.

100_1520 

Well, okay. For just a minute. I’ll be quiet and still. Hello grandparents. Hope you’ve had a great Monday. I love you all.

Simple Pleasures

Today, Daddy built me a tent! He says it didn’t cost a dime. I didn’t care. It was so much fun!

More Friday and Saturday Pictures

Before going to bed on Friday night, Daddy took some more pictures of me.

I love going without a shirt.

100_1501 

I think I’d rather wear nothing at all!

100_1502 

Well, I did have to leave my shoes on for some reason.

100_1503 

Finally, finally, finally. I’m almost naked now!

100_1504 

A yard sale find! A new basket. While I was taking my nap, Mommy put my toys in it. But, I thought I’d fill it with something else—ME!

100_1505 

What do you think? Am I cuter than my toys?

100_1507 

Seriously, don’t you think you’d rather find this on Easter morning than a basket full of toys?

100_1508 

What did you say Mommy? I need to get out? But why?

100_1509 

The boy with a thousand faces. This is my “I don’t want to get out of the basket” look.

I’m Back Again

Once I get started taking pictures, I don’t like to stop.

100_1497 

I think Mommy just told me a joke. I don’t really understand jokes, but I think that was one.

100_1498 

It doesn’t matter. I love to laugh anyway. Care to join me?
