Bike! And other stuff...

Greetings!  Well first and most pressing, I got a new bike.

More on that important topic later.  

Mom says I can't hog the spotlight all the time.

This weekend Rosie and I went to a birthday party 

and then we saw WHALES!  I even pointed them
out to my mom when she wasn't looking.

It is snowing quite a bit and hopefully

dad will take us outside tomorrow to build something cool.

Oh look at that, my bike and me.

Rosie is munching away.  She does not like to wear her bib

and she takes it off frequently.

 I washed Rosie's hair in the tub.  I think she liked it.

 My best friend Phoebë Snow is back in town.

She came over and played with us.

 She is so darling.

 Rosie wants to stand at all possible times.

 Here she is, standing without holding on to anything.

And now the moment I have been waiting to share with you:  my first bike.

Thank you MeMa.  I LOVE IT.

Happy 9th month birthday Rosalie!

Rosie will be 9 months on Monday.

Mom and dad didn't take any pictures this week

because they were really busy and mom has a cold,

but they did put together this little number of 

our mundane daily stuff.  Rosie is almost walking!

Sunday.

This week wraps up with naked baby pile on dad,

a fun trip to the beach in the rain,

and a birthday party at the gym.

 

I know what you're thinking:  who peed on dad first?

I won't point fingers, but it wasn't me.

 

 

At the birthday party they had a bunch of bikes.

I REALLY want a bike.  I LOVE bikes.

 

I took a turn with the piñata stick. 

Well actually, I grabbed it and ran.

My buddy Ever and I settled in for some

frozen fruit and some delicious baked snacks.

 

 

All morning I was talking about eating cake

and when the time came, I decided I was full

and I bailed out on the cake.

Happy birthday Logan!

He is a member of "nice" playgroup.

 

There was a point when mom could not find me.

I was hiding in a locker!

This is a really fun game that my mother does not like.

I can lift the milk all the way up the stairs.

 

Rosie at the beach, munching on cold rocks.

This picture is moments after mom found me

tipping back a shot glass full of white sugar.

Notice the crazy sugar glaze in my eyes.

Back in the swing of things.

School has started, mom is back at work

and dad starts school on Monday.

It is about to get all busy up in here, so to speak.

 

I had some spaghetti.  I hope you can feel the joy

I experience when eating these delicious whole wheat noodles.

 

My sister and I can do some damage.

We like to hang out behind the couch, near the tree.

Me to be near the electricity.  Baby to eat the dirt.

Both, we are told, are not desired activites.

Rosie!

Happy Birthday!

 

Happy Birthday Uncle Gabe!

Here are the results of our photo shoot.

Kind of a comedy.

 

 

This is a favorite.

 

And here it is, sans kids.

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
