AGU in Fort Lauderdale

The reason we went to Florida, other than my baptism, was because my mom was giving a presentation at the AGU (American Geophysical Union) Spring Meeting. I was her guest and I got my own name tag.
I was ready to answer questions if anyone should ask
Sofia and Lucas found the poster topic to be very boring and decided to take naps.
I was exhausted after answering questions so I napped as well.

Swinging in Miami

My mom is finally going to start the Miami entries. We were there almost a month ago . She is soo slow!

When I was in Miami, I had lots of time to swing around with my cousins.

They are so lucky, not only do they have a swing in their backyard: But they had a park with swings real near by. Here I am swinging and playing with primo sebastian. I love him a lot.

Lucas and Sofia also got in on the swinging action



Here are a few videos of Lucas and me swinging and of also running

Baptism

Hi everyone. I am back from Miami. There are many blog updates to come, but I will start here and move forward.

I was baptized on Monday (Memorial Day) by Bishop Noonan. My cousins Lucas and Sofia were also baptized. It was a small, intimate baptism which was nice. Gran made my christening gown, bonnet and blanket. I looked very cute. I screamed when the holy water touched me. Should my parents be afraid? Lucas smiled....what a kiss-a**

Let the pictures begin (thanks to Tia Katie and Oncle Gunnar for being such good photographers!)

Mother's Day and Stuff

Hello everyone. Just a quick update before I head to Miami tomorrow. I'll be gone for a week visiting with my Nona, all my cousins and all my Tios and Tias. I am very excited. Mom is giving a presentation at the American Geophysical Union Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and Daddy and I are just tagging along. My mom keeps talking about attenuated color ratio, error propagation, aerosol index tracking algorithms and other boring stuff. Thank goodness she doesn't have her own blog because she would be boring y'all to tears.

I managed to catch a cold, so I kept mom up all night because I couldn't breathe. It is payback for her boring me. Hopefully I will be better for my flight tomorrow.

But onto the update

Mother's Day: We went to Sacramento to spend it with Gran and Great Grandma. If my dad was a little less self absorbed, he would have thought to take a picture of me with mom on her first Mother's Day. But he didn't. I also didn't get a picture with Great Grandma. But I did get one with Gran. She played a lot with me and read me books. I loved it:


I also spent time with Grandpa. I think he likes me more than Hattie the dog (but don't tell Hattie.)

Oops, you caught me eating the book...and you say I won't eat anything solid.

I do love teething biscuits


And the bath that follows:


Now aren't I cute in my hat?

Ok, all for now. Now give me that camera

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all my favorite moms.
