Gramma Linda's Birthday Celebration

We went to our favorite Mexican food restaurant, Puerto Vallarta, for Gramma Linda's birthday. They made my Gramma wear a funny hat and sang a birthday song to her.

Here I am with my Papa. We have lots of fun together.

Cousin Drew is telling me about his new baby brother or sister. We got to see "Peanut's" sonogram tonight.

Drew takes his 'Shirley Temple Popper' and yells "YEEHAW"

6 Month Shots... No Big Deal

I had my shots today for becoming 1/2 year old... what a present! I can't believe I'm getting close to my first birthday. The shots surprised me when they came. I cried for a minute and then I felt better after Mommy, Daddy and Avery comforted me. I can definitely wait for the next round of shots. Thank goodness the 9 month well visit doesn't include any!

Grampa Steve's Birthday

We had family over for Grampa Steve's birthday. We ate dinner, played horseshoes, watched him open gifts and ate cake. Mommy forgot to buy candles, so we had to use a really tall pillar candle. I think he may have gotten whatever he wished for since he only had to blow out one candle. :)

Mommy likes taking pictures of me with Fozzie. Check out his fresh summer haircut.

I can't wait for Grampa Steve to get here so we can play!

Here I am in my backyard with Gramma and Fozzie. Daddy, Uncle Crawdad, Tarod and Grampa Steve are playing horseshoes. I can't wait for Daddy to teach me how to play.

Fozzie's a good dog!

Grampa played with me and Tarod. We had a lot of fun celebrating his birthday.

Auntie Christine and Crawdad brought over a gift for me too. It is a lighted 49er dinosaur that cruises around and sings a silly song. We cannot figure out what the dinosaur is singing. Something about Deedle Bop. All I know is it's really cool!!

Cowboy Baby

My first Redding Rodeo. We started the day off by going to the Asphalt Cowboy's Pancake Breakfast with Daddy's coworkers.

Here's some of the Gang!

Here we are... ready for some cowgirls! Now it's time for some buckin' bulls! Maybe we should start with the Mutton Bustin'

Abbey Came Over Today

Abbey is my girl. She's an older lady... and I really like that. :) She came over to visit me today. I watched her play, then she gave me a big hug. Our mommies have been friends for over 15 years.

My Very First Giants Game

We went to my first Giants game today. It was Grrrrrrreat!! The start of the day was a challenge. I had to wake up around 5:30am. You can see from my picture of me in my car seat, that I was only about half awake. I slept much of the way to San Francisco. We stopped at a rest area on the way so I could have some milk.

After we arrived at the parking lot, we headed in. Daddy promises we will do tailgating next time! We stopped to check out Willie McCovey cove.


I saw many boats in the cove. They were all ready to grab a Barry Bonds Splash homer. When we were coming through the gate, I met Jonathon Sanchez, Giants Pitcher. He even stopped to take a picture with me. I'm a lucky boy. I will have to bring a sharpie next time so I can get some autographs. Jonathon didn't play today, but I'll see him pitch later this season.


I guess the game wasn't one of the Giants' best performances. The Giants were defeated by the Padres...7-0... but no worries, I'll be a faithful fan!




We had a good time at the game. I ate once and took a few naps. I love sleeping to the sound of cheering fans. Mommy and Daddy spent a lot of time trying to shield me from the sun. They didn't want me to get a sunburn..OUCH! They did a wonderful job because I didn't get one.

Here I am before my first official day of school. I'm going to go to West Redding Preschool 5 days a week. I'm going to school because my Mommy has to go back to work from being off for maternity leave. I wish she could stay home with me. We had a lot of fun when she had maternity and bonding time with me.


Here I am after my first day. I really enjoyed it. Mommy came to feed me at lunch and to make sure I was doing well. Unfortunately, Mommy sped on her way back to work and got a speeding ticket. All the ladies were really nice to me.


I couldn't wait to play with Mommy and Daddy after school.



I'm such a happy baby!!
