Just Goofing Around!

Just an update/goofing page. I turned 15 months back on January 18. I am a book hound these days. I can't get enough of them. No joke, it's pretty much a 'round the clock kind of thing. And I've learned the word "again," so we are learning them ALL by heart hearing them over and over and over again. Mom seems to have more patience for this than Dad. I especially love to read on my potty. I've become a pretty successful potty pro. I do my business there regularly and, well, it's no wonder because my bathroom is chalk full of books.



I'm gearing up for February and Valentine's Day (note the tee shirt tribute to Mom). BUT, I have my 15 month check up on February 1 (shots, no thanks), so really I can't wait until Ground Hog Day. If you remember from the prior post, Oma and Opa visit at the end of February. I can't wait!


My little red wagon arrived from Florida about a week ago. When we finally had a break in the cold weather, Mom and I took it out for it's neighborhood debut to the park. Despite what you may see in this photo, I actually sit very nicely in it the whole ride there and back without any coaxing from Mom. We took it out for another spin to the park this weekend. Love it!


I'm into playing and hiding in small spaces. For instance, I frequent the nook between the couch and the wall. It's really only wide enough for the skinny floor lamp post, which is why Mom has to occasionally rescue me. Anyhoo, this shower is always a blast to play in and it's the smallest one in the house. Just right for a little man like me!




I'm not claustrophobic!



Man, I'm adorable! I keep growing like a weed.I have definitely hit a growth spurt. I eat anything and everything. I've moved over to all 18 month clothes or bigger. I'll try to remember to post the official stats after my check up on Friday.

Make sure you check out the previous post because two got posted at the same time. It's an "adventures with Oma" post and you don't want to miss out!

Cold Weather Oma!

Oma made her first visit for 2008! I was thrilled to see her again and we wasted no time getting goofy. We had freezing cold weather while she was visiting. On one of the days, we even had snow flurries. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have with me for a long weekend of being cooped up in the house!






I regularly rearrange Mom and Dad's bathroom cabinets. I especially like playing 173 pick-up with Mom's hairpins.



Oma hadn't been to visit the new and improved children's museum I frequent. It was a high priority of mine that I take Oma for some car driving, train tabling, rip-roaring fun.






My favorite is still the train table. The Noah nut doesn't fall far from the Opa tree!






Mom thought I looked kind of scruffy. So she and Oma whisked me away to my new favorite hair-cutting place. They have Elmo videos and fire engine chairs and cute blondes who run their fingers through my hair. No complaints from me!



I really love spending time with Oma! Here we are just hanging around.






Here we are having snack before Oma left for the airport on her last day. She explained she would be returning in February and that she would bring Opa with her. Based on her representations to return with Opa next time, I reluctantly relinquished the car keys so she wouldn't miss her flight. Can't wait until the end of February!

STILL THE CUTEST KID IN 2008

So far, 2008 is just swell! Dad and I play race track almost every night while Mom makes dinner. More of that mystery vegetarian stuff, but it tastes soooo good! It also helps accessorize outfits. I believe this was creamy parsnip and carrot soup night. I'm pretty sure food polka dots are in.



Here I am on a different night. I am comfortable enough in my manhood to parade around sans pants.





I've been testing my limits lately and Mom and Dad's patience too. Here I am in an "eh, eh, eh" spot, as I affectionately repeat over and over again. So, yes, this is me with my hand in the trash can. Mom really reacts when I put my hand in the toilet too. This off-limits stuff is the best!


These photos were taken on a morning when Scout was out of the house. Usually, she lays claim to this couch in the living room. Ahhhhhhhh, finally it's my turn!



Yep, this is the life. I can see why she is so attached to this comfy and cozy couch.


My best Scout impression!


If anyone calls, just take a message for me. Thanks!
