DAILY EXERCISE...CHECK!

I like to wake up with the morning sun and climb,

strike a pose, 

and climb more!

Until we decided we wanted to get in a little ice skating,

but I was feeling a bit weary on that front!

so me and mom watched from the sidelines!

 It takes balance,

and major hand coordination

Maybe next time I actually get to skate:)

SIX MONTHS DOWN, SIX MONTHS TO GO!

Now that I am six months old, I figure I could simply do what I want 

 Talk on the cell phone, 

climb out of bed in the wee hours of the morning,

and take over moms stuff when she is not looking!

But she is mighty quick when I go for her prized possession, her canon!

and when I cant get what I want, I let the world know!

As an ode to my sixth month self,

we started my bum genius cloth diapers!

As you can tell, Im quite elated with the switch!

MY HOLIDAY SUMMATION

Oh boy, the holidays were filled with great fun and adventures so lets begin with Christmas

Presents, presents, and more presents galore at Grandma and Grandpas house

Yes this is how we showed up and yes there is a onesie big enough to fit daddy!

me and my beautiful cousins

Kendra tried to teach me how to crawl, one hand, one foot at a time

and so did grandpa.

I watched very carefully how to use my opposable thumbs to get to the good stuff

and gave it a whirl myself

I just wanted mom to stop taking pictures so I could enjoy my workbench

As our christmas came to an end, we had to remember that its not about all the toys we get but that we are happy, healthy, and able to be surrounded by the ones we love the most!

 A few days later we went to the Rose Bowl to help build the floats

Daddy and his company helped with the 9/11 float

it was a cold, chilly day so i hid with dad and also couldnt decide...firefighting or news anchoring?

I helped in many corporate decisions as seen here,

and here.

Grandma working hard adding the beautiful eucalyptus

they might be smiling but geesh i just want out!

Our new years started off great...

a family picture as usual, 

and irritating paparazzi flashes. 

Fine, but show my better side please

We were the only kids at the party and we crashed it!

with my "where the wild things are" outfit and all.

(left corner of forehead) nope its not a rash but rather a lipstick kiss

a kiss before midnight, iʻd say iʻm ahead of the game!

why are they smiling? I am trying to concentrate on my $1 bet going on

Hit me again susan!

Hau`oli Makahiki Hou to all.  Let 2011 bring in lots of love, happiness, and laughter to all of my family and friends near or far.  

A few days later, we drove up to Big Bear for a quick trip to the snow

I am not so sure about this cold thing, theyve got me so bundled.

look ma, no feet!

So there you have it.  From fancy, shiny paper with ribbons to the winter wonderland, my holiday season sure was one for the books!
