Working Up a Serious Sweat!

Oh man am I tired (and hungry)! I had my first workout at The Little Gym!

Unfortunately, I had to cut out of the science fair at daycare a bit early.

My classmates and I were exploring cause and effect. Our sensory bin was full of white sand and we all had different colored bottles of water. When we squirted the bottles into the white sand and mixed it up with our hands, it turned different colors! My buddy Henry must have skipped lunch because he kept trying to eat the sand! Funny guy.

Anyway...when we first got to the gym...it was a bit scary. I don't know why...but it took me a couple of minutes to get the hang of it. I even cried! I know...totally unlike me!

After about 5 minutes, I saw all of the other kids running around and playing, got my courage up, and took off like a firework! We learned to do forward rolls on the balance beam, back handsprings, throw balls, and sing songs! I love this place!

Hadouken!

So you've heard me talk about feeling something growing inside of me, right? I've always thought it was just gas. I mean, yesterday and today, I had Mexican food for dinner...beans and all. It totally made sense, right?

Well today, I was sitting on mommy and daddy's bed and I got that feeling again. I looked down and my hands started tingling and the next thing I knew....there was this flash!

Woah!

I have to admit...it was sort of scary at first but my natural curiosity quickly got the better of me. I figured out that I could actually control the glow! Amazing!

Daddy was really proud of me when I showed him and wanted to show me off to the world. He said I was the real life Ryu...whoever that is. He did show me his picture (below) and I have to admit...he does look pretty cool. Now if I could only tear the sleeves off my shirt, find a red headband, and get some muscles. Guess it's a good thing I just got my membership at The Little Gym!

Sold Out!

So most of you have heard about Henry, my buddy at daycare. He's the one who taught me how to sit back down after I pulled myself up to a stand. In return, I taught him how to use his fingers to make noise with his lips. It's hard to describe. Ask me next time and I'll show you.

Anyway...I have a new friend at daycare. Her name's Mitra. She's a bit younger than me and she's always sucking on a pacifier...like Maggie Simpson. Since I didn't grow up with a pacifier...I was curious...so I plucked it right out of her mouth! It's become a game now. Whenever I see her, I try to steal her pacifier. She tries to run away...but I'm older than she is so I'm faster!

Well today, Mitra's dad was carrying Mitra and he said, "Say hi to Logan, Mitra!" I looked up and gave her the famous Tang family scowl and she cried! I mean...I did the same thing to Ms. Sandra in the morning and she just laughed at me. Oh man....

When daddy came to pick me up, Ms. Nancy told him that I made Mitra cry! I can't believe she sold me out!

Where's the Mama?

While daddy's hard at work and I'm working hard in school...mama's out playing laser tag!

Can you believe it?!

My first pair of shoes and a new cousin!

This past weekend was so busy! On Sat, I had my swim class, which I'm enjoying more and more. We had lunch with some of mommy & daddy's friends after my class. I was starving and ate so much that I impressed everyone. Go me! After lunch, we headed to mall to buy me my first pair of shoes. But after my morning workout and huge lunch, I was wiped out and napped for 2 hours. Mommy and daddy had to walk around the mall until I woke up. I don't think Daddy's every just strolled around the mall and shopped like that before.

When I woke up, we headed to the shoe store where the nice lady measured my feet. Turns out I have wide feet. The nice shoe store lady said they might even be super wide. Mommy's not surprised because she and Uncle Eddie have wide feet. She's just hoping I won't end up with pontoons like Uncle Eddie and have to special order shoes for me like Uncle Eddie does.

<----Oh, check out my new shoes! Cool huh?
They are way more stylish than daddy's first pair of shoes. ------->

Mommy says that daddy's shoes were stylish back when he was a baby. Man, daddy sure is old!

It turns out the quest for new shoes was partially motivated by the fact that I had to look good to meet my new cousin, Ethan. Auntie Jeanette and Uncle Jeff welcomed a new addition to their family on Friday, Feb 25, and we went to go meet him! I got to walk around the hospital and explore the hallways in my new shoes. I made friends with the nurses and some of the other people in the waiting room. Here're a couple of pics of Ethan:

Mommy says that Ethan looks like a mini version of Uncle Jeff. Daddy and I can't tell. He just looks like a baby to us. Ethan's cool and all, but he's kinda boring right now. All he does is sleep, eat, poop and cry. I can't wait until he's older so we can play together! Here's a pic of Grandma, Grandpa, me and Ethan. Doesn't he look tiny compared to me?
