Happy Easter 2014

Happy Easter!  The Easter Bunny brought my brother and I microphones.  We love to perform and sing, so we really wanted microphones.  Grandpa John and Suzanne gave us a huge basket filled with yummy treats, an ocean toy to add to our train table, and a doddle board.  Grandma Lucille gave us treats and clothes, so we will be looking good this summer.  We had lunch with our family at Grandma Lucille's house.  We even had a egg hunt with cousin Joce.  We later went to Mom's and Pop's house and got to play in the jumper.  We had another egg hunt at Mom's and Pop's, so we will stocked with goodies.  It was a wonderful day filled with lots of fun, family, and SUGAR!!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Parker

I celebrated my 2nd birthday with my family.  We had a breakfast and my family came over to spend time with me.  It was a nice, warm, sunny day so we got to eat out back and I got to play with my cousin Joce, my friend Natalie, and my brother Palmer.  I got so many presents - fun toys and clothes.  I'm ready for summer now with my new clothes.  I had a wonderful 2nd birthday!

Mommy and Daddy were reminiscing on all that I've done this year and how much I have changed.  I really had a wonderful year and it was another year of 'firsts'.  I went on vacation to Palm Springs and Hawaii.  I went on my first airplane ride when we went to Hawaii.  I'm not only a walker now, but I'm a runner.  I love to ride my big wheel motorcycle and my bike.  I love playing trash trucks with my brother.  Wednesdays are my favorite days because I get to see the trash man visit our neighborhood to pick up all our trash cans.  I run outside every time and way hello to him.  He's knows me by now.  I love to watch movies.  My favorite TV shows are Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and Curious George.  Youtube is often on at our house because I watch garbage trucks and funny looking gummy bear.  I love to run and play with my brother.  I especially like going for walks around our neighborhood.  I love the park as well.  I'm very independent...I feed myself and I want to do everything all by myself.  The best part...I go potty in the toilet.  I only wear diapers at night!  I've accomplished so much this year, I wonder what is in store for next year?

A Rough Start to a New Year

Happy New Year.  We have had a rough start to 2014 because our family was sick for the first 8 weeks of it.  We have had a bad flu season and although we all got our flu shots last fall, my brother and I got one virus after another.  Mommy and Daddy took good care of us and even they got sick.  It was inevitable since they had to play doctor to us.  After 21 days on a strong antibiotic, I finally kicked it and now I just mild, residual symptoms.  Even though we've been sick, I've been playing with my brother and enjoying our winter.  We've had some warm weather which allows us to go outside to play and get fresh air.  We've had some colder, wet weather which brings us much needed moisture and water.  I'm ready for spring to be here and I'm ready to celebrate my 2nd birthday soon.  I hope I'll be 100% better by then.

Merry Christmas 2013

Merry Christmas!  This year has been a wonderful holiday season as my brother and I have been looking at all the Christmas lights in our neighborhood, we visited with Santa and Mrs. Claus at their workshop, we would sing carols as they play in our car, and we have watched many holiday movies.  Buddy the Elf stayed with us for 2 weeks as he was watching over us to make sure we behaved ourselves.  Every night he would go home to the north pole to report back to Santa if we were naughty or nice.  We skyped with Santa a few times and in the end, I ended up on the nice list.  Christmas Eve was spent with Grandpa John and Suzanne during the day, Grandma Lu, Joce, Auntie, Uncle Jon, and Uncle Robert in the afternoon, and with all our family at Mom & Pop's at night.  I had so much fun playing with my cousins.  Christmas morning, Santa brought my brother and I a train table and train set.  We were so excited.  We spent all day with Grandma Katy and Grandpa Al and our entire family at their house.  It was a fun filled day.  All together I got so many presents: a train set, a motorcycle big wheel, money, pj's, books, puzzles, an airplane toy, art supplies, a monster truck, a monkey, and lots of yummy treats.  It was a wonderful holiday season and I can't wait until next Christmas is here.

Holiday Traditions

Every year since I have been born, we visit various neighborhoods to look at Christmas lights.  This year we stayed closer to home and got to explore all the decorated houses within our city and neighboring city of Mission Viejo.  We went several times this year and we would take hot chocolate and cookies on our lights tour.  It was so beautiful.  We also visited Santa and Mrs. Claus at his workshop.  As soon as Mommy handed me over to Santa I started screaming.  Maybe next year I won't be so afraid of the big guy?  It was still a fun night exploring Santa's workshop.

Happy 4th Birthday Palmer

Happy Birthday to my big brother Palmer.  I want to do everything that you do.  You may think I bug you at times, but it is just that I want to be with you and be just like you.  You are my best friend and I love you very much!

Lions and Tigers and Bears...

We went to the Irvine Zoo today.  Although it is a small zoo, they have a good selection of animals.  We got to touch a snake, pet some sheep, and see many animals such as coyotes, owls, deer, a bear, a zebra, and even a mountain lion.  Mommy is afraid of mountain lions.  I was screaming with excitement when I saw all the different animals.
