I keep looking for the baby I am practicing gentle with

or at the computer for dogs to magically appear.

And dad made me the best blueberry applesauce,

which is what is all over me. I even

licked the measuing cup containing said applesauce!

Uma visits!

With mom's spring break coming to an end,

we had 3 visitors come. Sasha, Trevor and Uma!

We really had a good time playing together.

We went to the ocean and threw rocks,

we went to a birthday party,

and we played hard every day!

It was fun!

I accidentally fell in headfirst and got my head a little wet!

Snow! On March 18th!

Cedar and Phoebë enjoyed day 1 of spring break,
complete with a foot plus of snow.

Baby fiesta

An old picture from Guatemala, just for fun.

We went to a fundraiser for my friend Kat's preschool,

which will also be my preschool at some point (1.5 years).

I ran wild, danced, frolicked, pulled the lights over, ate

spaghetti, took my clothes off and passed out at home an hour later.

Good times!

An assortment

Here are some updates! That sounds better than here are updates,

right Uncle Gabe?

I am really into throwing big rocks into the river,

unfortunately it has been snowing, raining and cold!

That activity is on hold for a little while.

Mom and her friend Lisa took me to play in the water

and I helped Lisa gather rocks for her garden.

Mom went to the baño and when she came out,

here I was. All ready to watch some TV!

Still eating yogurt, practicing with the spoon. This was my awesome bump

from hitting the bookshelf smack in the middle of my head.

Waking up with dada.

Uncle Gabe came to visit! He is reading me my current

favorite book: Danny and the Dinosaur.

I went to a baby party. This is Cooper and I.

Here is the line-up, by age. I am older than Cooper by 9 days.

Back to Uncle Gabe!

Mom wanted me to play outside today, but it has been

snowing and raining and sunny, in reapeating 5 minute intervals.

Herring season...

So dad came home from work quick and set up the tent for me!

Bringing the outdoors indoors!

All for now!
