May 2009

The month of May was a big month for me. Lots to update so here we go.

It started off with a trip to NJ. Dad was there for work and our house was going on the market that weekend, so mom and I joined him for a long weekend. We spent some time looking at houses in Milburn, Summit, Glen Rock and Ridgewood. I had definite opinions on homes. We We will be going on our official house hunting trip in July.

This is me on the flight to NJ. I took a nice nap. On the way back though, I didn't sleep at all. I talked. the.entire.time. But let's look att he peaceful sleeping picture instead
Playing in a field in Ridgewood, while we waited for Auntie ChiCha (Krista)...she didn't make it

Later in the month, We spent Mother's Day at Grandma's house, as we do every year. Here I am with Great Grandma. I love her.And of course Hattie. Everyone knows I love her
Cute even with a black eye
Hi Maggie! Stay so I can pet you

Mom, leave Aunt ChiCha and I alone. Can't you see we are busy playing with her i-phone
I had a playdate with my good friend Amelia. She is 2 already. I miss her because she has moved to the 2-year old room at school. I'll be moving there in mid-june. I am glad because I miss all my friends

Playing with Abby and Emma at the park
Playing with my shopping cart and my dog. I had to change his diapers and then I put him in the cart
I went to Tyler's 2nd birthday party. He is also already in Room 2. I miss him. His birthday party was at a cool park that had a water feature. I had a lot of fun running through the water

I had to change clothes afterward because Iwas soaked. Even my hat was soaked so I changed that too
I also had fun swinging at the party
We also had a day at the beach. It started off cold so i had to wear my fleece
but it warmed up and I was able to frolic in my swimsuit
This is as close as I got to the water

Playing in the sand
ooh, a hole
"My fell in, mommy"

Cito&Katie's Engagement Party Weekend

Back at the end of March, my mommy and I flew to Miami for Tio Cito's and Tia Katie's engagement party. We were in Miami for about 5 days. This is our story, in reverse order because my mom accidentally uploaded the photos that way

After 5 days of playing, my cousins Sofia & Lucas and I were very dirty so we had a bath together. Lucas and I gave zero competition to Sofia in the Mohawk world
At the park, near my cousins' house. Day 4 of matching dresses



Getting ready to go to the park in the double stroller. Lucas rode my stroller
Concentrating on destroying a sippy cup
Don't we look angelic?

Where's Lucas? peekaboo
Where's sofia? peekaboo
Sofia is making herself comfortable

How much for those babies in the window?
Pure splashing bliss at the Winston Park Pool

Day 3 of matching dresses...what, we're not doing anything

Lucas, especially, isn't doing anything
Chillin' in the bed of a truck
He's back there, isn't he?
