We celebrated my dad's 25th birthday in the coolest way! He took us to the zoo! I impressed Mom by correctly answering her questions..."What does a lion say?" "rar, rar, rar!" and "What does a cow say?" "mooo." My favorite part was the toddler barn where I was able to get out of the stroller and climb, push buttons, and open little doors! Caroline said she liked the rinhos because they had a cute baby. Mom just enjoyed being reminded of God's amazing creativity! We all had a wonderful time and think my dad is the BEST for sharing his birhtday with us!
Creative Ways to Use Your Sister's Toys

Hello All! I wanted to share a few pictures with you to demonstrate my creative guiness. I have recently taken up the hobby of discovering new ways to use Caroline's toys. Her doll beds were fairly comfortable, though I still prefer my own crib. The main perk of taking up residence in her doll cradle was that she treated me like one of her babies and tried to make me comfortable with blankets and such. The Groovy Girl bed was not bad until Caroline caught on to my experiment and tried to copy me. I quickly took care of that problem as you can see in the pictures! After trying out her beds, I moved on to her grocery cart and found it to be a very useful ladder. There is not much Mom and Caroline can keep out of my reach now!
On May 10, 2005 I celebrated my very first birthday complete with a backyard barbeque and a chocolate cake shaped like a baseball and glove! The guest list included many of my fans, but sadly only a few were actually able to make the party. I missed my out of town family and my Mala and Aunt Katie, but still had lots of fun! All of my presents were very keen and have since been enjoyed by both Caroline and myself. Though the party was great, I fear it ended rather poorly as I consumed far too much (1 hot dog, 1 bun, 1/2 cob of corn, baked beans, chocolate cake and milk) and went to bed with a tummy ache! I guess you could say I had my cake and ate it too! You can experience the fun for yourself by checking out these pictures.
I thought y'all might be interested in my biggest accomplishment yet...I'm now a fully mobile little person! I walk everywhere I possibly can and am enjoying it immensley! It sure makes life easier being up and around on two feet instead of motoring around on all fours. This is especially noticiable on my frequent trips to the park, which are Mom's way of keeping me busy and out of her cupboards! Enjoy the new pics!
