Cousins

Lots of estrogen today.  Grandma, Great Grandma and my two Cousins.  I don't think the little bit of testosterone in the house which was me would have even registered on any gender meter.

Not a problem though.  Women usually pay more attention to me anyway.  My Cousins Kaylee and Jasmine took great care of me today.  Kaylee was a little perturbed when I pulled her hair earlier in the day but by the end of the day she was laughing it off.  I'm a total charmer.

Sure is nice having Cousins.  I'm glad they are girls also, I have a feeling boy cousins wouldn't be smothering me with hugs and kisses all day.

Salmon + Tatter Tots = A Second Wind For Jaxon!

Daddy dragged Mommy and I to a work barbecue tonight.  Not fun for a little baby like myself.  There was a little newborn there but he mainly slept and nursed.  He was too young to play with.

I was getting worn out until they let me try some of the Salmon!  It came right off of Daddy's plate!  I'm eating like a grown-up more and more every day.

That relieved me for a little while but the drive from Magnolia to Laurelhurst was way too long.  Since Mommy doesn't eat salmon we stopped by Taco Time and Mommy got some "Mexi-Fries" which is a code for Tatter Tots.

I got to try them out also!  I was so excited I charged all around the house for about an hour.  

About a second after this picture was taken I totally went crazy!

Block Party!

Tonight my neighborhood had a Block Party!  Very exciting.  The street was blocked off, neighbors came out to meet each other, children ran about!

And I slept though it entirely.  I was fed and then put to bed before it even started.  I'm tired of being just a baby!

Rowdy Times in the University Village

While Daddy was writing the blog that I had dictated I talked to Mommy secretly to see if we should tell him about our time today.

I was so ready to get into the pool today that when we went to the University Village and I saw the fountain . . . I went wild!

I was totally unruly. But hey, sometimes when I see running water I just go wild!  Be it a hose or a shower it doesn't matter!  We left before I was about to peak and cause a scene.

We figured it would be okay to tell Daddy.  He's not a disciplinarian yet!

Looking forward to a few more rowdy days ahead while I can.

Pool Days!

Finally!  I had the perfect combination of Sun, a new Pool and NO Bees!

Time for some Fun in the Sun with my new Pool!

What a fun time I had.  It helped that I had plenty of friends to play with including an Orca, a Blowfish, a Hermit Crab and Ducky (A staple).

After that it was time to down a cold one.  To bad Daddy always finishes his Coke Zero.  Oh well, at least I have the motion down!

Looking forward to more Fun in the Sun!

Safety is Everyone's Business!

Definitely need to make sure the house is protected.  I had been yelling at Mommy and Daddy to improve the defenses of our house for a along time but finally I convinced Papo to bring his building expertise.  

He put Daddy to work.  I am a much safer baby now that all the doors our deadlocked.  

It's nice to know that when Daddy doesn't get things in gear I can always talk to Lulu and Papo to get 

things done.  We talked over some other home improvement ideas over dinner.

Remember, Everybody is a Safety Officer!

Bees=A Road Trip

Mommy and Daddy had a fun day planned in the back yard today.  I was going to get my first kiddy pool and I was going to splash and play all day! Unfortunately, there was a storm brewing across the street.  Lots and lots of bees.  Where they came from I don't know, but Mommy and Daddy decided we needed to enjoy the day somewhere else.  : (

Well, we decided to drive to Granite Falls, Mommy's hometown.  We went to visit Grandma June, Great Grandma Mimi and my cousin Jasmine!

There were a few things I wasn't that wild about.  Daddy put me next to this baby who was very rude and didn't want to talk at all.  I'm not used to that so I gave him a piece of my mind!

But then it was back to Everybody paying attention to me again.  Jasmine even gave me a demonstration of her riding her new bike.  God I can't wait to get my first tricycle!

I'm a little boy trapped in a baby's body at this point in time.
