That Basically Sums It Up . . .

I sure won that round Daddy.  You thought you could wrestle me asleep again and now you are sitting in the living room defeated as Mommy nurses me for like the 100th time tonight.  This little tongue was made for tasting new food and mocking those who try and impose rules on me!

This Baby doesn't respond to Sticks . . . Only to Carrots!


Pfftt!

I Want To Cook Like Mommy!

So it was Pasta tonight!  There is something about making Pasta with Mommy that I find very exciting.  All the bubbling and steaming pots are so, so fascinating to me.

Sadly, Mommy doesn't let me stir the stuff.  There is nothing I would enjoy more then to stir the pot with my little hands.  Unfortunately, Mommy keeps me far away from the stove and all the bubbling and steaming goodness.

Yeah, she let me play with the pots and spoon a bit but it wasn't the same.  : (

She tried to placate me by feeding me some but the stuff wasn't for me.  I was all about the process not the product.

Looking forward to more kitchen responsibilities soon!

Fed Myself Tonight!

Daddy couldn't resist his combined leftover dinner of Quiche and Hot Dogs tonight so he was a little slow in feeding me.

I was forced to take matters into my own hands!

The spoon was something that was fun to play with but didn't really do the job of getting as much food into my mouth as possible.

No big deal.  I was going to get the rest of the Guacamole somehow.

Sometimes you just have to take the initiative.

Back to ¡Cactus!

It had been awhile since we had been back to Mommy and Daddy's favorite Mexican restaurant, ¡Cactus!.  But tonight, we returned.  It was very exciting.  Mainly because I had the chance to eat Grown-Up food¡

Nothing like Guacamole on one of my Puffs.  Cowabunga!

I was set to finish the entire bowl of Guacamole and then the Entree came, and I was introduced to . . .

BEANS!  Wow, talk about something I could never live without.  I'm loving this adult food more and more!

The night was capped of by Daddy's fun friend Jabe who works at ¡Cactus! dropping by to say "Hi".  I think he liked the attention.  I sure did!

Can't wait to try this "Salsa" stuff next time I come back but Mommy said I wasn't ready yet.

¡Adios!

Baby Shower!

Mommy's friend Jamie had a Baby Shower today.  This was the second one I've been to, actually the first outside of Mommy!

Daddy was politely advised that he probably wouldn't fit in well so he disappeared.  So I was the Man of the House!  I mean literally, thirteen Women AND my friend Addyson!

I was the only MAN in the house.  Very exciting, especially when I got my first kiss from a girl.  Addyson pushed me around a bit but I held my ground and was rewarded!

How could any little Boy thinks Girls are Yucky!  I love this attention!

Playing Nice

I went to another Birthday Party today.  The Girl Next Door, Nora, had her First Birthday!  Mommy was busy preparing for a Baby Shower tomorrow so it was just Daddy and Me!

Well, there were still lots of other Babies!  Now, I do enjoy the company but . . . Don't get in the way of my access to a toy.  I don't care how well we got along earlier.  Sometimes you have to look out for Number One!

I got my share of the pie!

More Visitors . . . From California!

What an exciting week!  Not only did I get visitors from Iowa but today I got to visit some Great Uncles from . . . California!

Great Uncle Kent and Great Uncle Millard.  Very exciting.  Granted, they weren't as rambunctious as Kelly from Iowa but they still showered me with lots of attention!

All these mystical place I've heard of, California, Iowa I've even heard whispers of a place called . . . "Oregon".   Mommy and Daddy also speak to me of Hawaii but I think that is all hype!

All these magical places I have heard of,  my little head is swirling with dreams of what the big wide world can offer!

Just thinking what I will eventually discover when I finally get on an airplane!
