Pillow Fort

My dad made a fort from a couch pillow and the hassock. It's a simple fort. I think they get more complex later, but I like it simple just fine.

My mama chased me through!


Hey mama!

Snow Day - sort of...

We had enough snow to make it slick here, so we had school for all of two hours.

My mama brought me home from school. She took my picture next to the front yard.


Time to play indoors.


I like stacking the circle blocks; I also like to stack the animals-you can see the dog and cat stacked together on the globe.

Ridin' on dad's shoulders

My family went for a walk this afternoon.

My hippo and I like riding on my dad's shoulders.

Visit from Todd and Wendy

Todd and Wendy visited. Sorry, no pictures of Wendy this time. Thanks for visiting folks!

Todd read Over in the Ocean to me.


Stackin'.


Playing with Todd.


And it all comes tumbling down!

Sunday, so far...

I got things off to a start this morning at 4:00am. Hey, everybody, time to get up! My mama and dad were not as eager as I. Sorry!

At the Original Pancake House. I started with Nilla Wafers dunked in milk. Yum!


After pancakes, we went back home and got cleaned up. Then my mama and I read Hop on Pop.

Japanese dinner at Mori

My family went to dinner at the local Japanese restaurant, Mori. We like it there.

Eating yakisoba. Its good!


The chef gave me a tube of Jello. Jello in a tube? My dad said What will they think of next?


The waitress took our picture.

Lunch then stackin'

My dad made pizza a couple nights ago, so today we had leftovers for lunch.


I got changed into my comfy pants for some stackin'.

Playing outside at school

My dad picked me up from school this afternoon. When he got there, we were playing outside. It was a cold but beautiful afternoon.

Dane and I work out the terms of the ownership of the house. Brooke is more interested in the camera.


My friend Col.


Hey you kids! Stay off my lawn!


Here's Vida. Check out those stockings!


This is Isaac. He refused to wear his hat. He is an inspiration to us all.


Hans slides, Dane is on deck. Miss Roberta keeps an eye on them.

A visit to the newest Jackson

I now have two friends named Jackson! I visited the newest Jackson tonight.

In this picture you can see Jackson and his mama Emily, plus me, my mama, and Sadie.


Me and Dylan.


Sadie gets a kiss.


My mama with Jackson.

New Sleep Suit

I got a new sleep suit for Christmas. My mama and dad know that it came from one set of grandparents, but was it GranTom and GranGlo, or was it Grandma Barb and Grandpa John? My mama thinks it was GranTom and GranGlo.

Who gave me this cool new sleep suit?

Rainy Day Fun

It was a rainy and cold day here in Seattle. Perfect for the Zoomasium.

First I took a ride on the elephant's trunk.


Then Mama helped me drink from the water fountain. I like doing that.


Ah, fishes!


The Zoomasium Players had a puppet show. They sang The Lion Sleeps Tonight.


I liked watching the puppet show.


Afterward I got to meet the actors.


After Zoomasium we went to the local bakery for an afternoon snack.

A couple school photos

My dad took me to school this morning, as usual. This time though he was determined to get a couple of photographs.

Anastasia is playing on the floor, and Miss Roberta is watching.


This picture is blurry but it was almost great so my dad wants to post it.
