Who You Callin Clown...Sucka!

Every year, CFC (Cisco Family Connection = daycare) has an end of the year celebration. In the past, it's always been a luau. For some reason, they decided to have a carnival this time.

They had snow cones, a magic show, a puppet show, and lots of carnival games. It was pretty cool...but it was super crowded. Daddy doesn't like crowds. I'm pretty sure I take after daddy. All I wanted to do was get out of there. I don't know what it is. I just feel like I'm walking around in a forest of giant people who are trying to squash me.

After we got out of there, I was a much happier person. Henry and I went back to our home turf, met up with Anthony, and played in the yard for the rest of the afternoon. We watered the plants (and ourselves) with the watering cans, chased each other in police cars, and mowed the lawn. I know it sounds like a lot of work...but it was so much fun!

Happy Friday!

Thank You Auntie Jeanette!

Happy Wednesday everyone! You'd never know it was a Wednesday because I spent the day with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jeff, Auntie Jeanette, cousin Ethan, Uncle Mike, and Daddy at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Auntie Jeanette totally hooked it up. I guess that's what you can do when you're one of the big wigs.

First, we checked out the sharks at the Shark Experience. At the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I thought they were sort of scary. I guess I've grown up because I wanted to go back into the shark tunnel and see them swimming around us. The sharks must have known I was coming because even the spotted wobbegong even came out to see me. The worker there said he is always hiding in the rocks and you can never find him.

Grandma took me on a helicopter ride and Grandpa took me on a hot air balloon ride. Daddy took me on the 4 x 4 and Uncle Jeff took me into the fountain to play in the water.

The highlights of my day were riding the elephant and feeding the giraffe. The elephant and giraffe were just like Tachi! I pet the elephant on the head (just like I pet Tachi). The elephant had a lot less hair than Tachi has. Mr. Elephant also needs to moisturize. He had really dry skin. The giraffe loves carrots! Because Auntie Jeanette hooked it up, I got to feed Mr. Giraffe more than six carrots! Everyone else only got to feed him one.
We played until both Ethan and I passed out in our strollers. It was an awesome day!




Thanks Auntie Jeanette! You're the best!

Random Thought

It's been a while since I've seen Kyden.

We used to see each other every week at Little Gym, but he graduated and is now a BEAST! That's so much cooler sounding than a birdie.

Anyway...seeing him got me to thinking.

Since he named his baby sister after mommy and daddy's car, I thought that someday, I should return the favor. Someday, if I have a baby brother or baby sister, I'm going to name him or her "Pilot."

That's a good name.

Fishing with OLD Friends

Today, we hopped into the swagger wagon and made the trek up to San Ramon for Uncle Ritchie's 40th birthday party. 40! Can you believe it! That's like 40 times older than me! I wonder if Uncle Ritchie had to run away from dinosaurs when he went to school as a kid.

We saw lots of mommy and daddy's friends. Fortunately, Zachary and Kyden came along too. For some reason, Kyden was being shy so I hung out with Zachary for most of the afternoon. Uncle Ritchie and Auntie Margaret have a swimming pool...but it was FREEZING! I guess Hawaii and the warm tropical water of the pool at swim lessons have turned me into a wimp.

There was this monster swimming around the pool! It had a big tail and kept cruising around eating everything up! Zachary and I grabbed some twigs and went fishing, but we couldn't get it to bite.

Oh well. Hopefully when I get older, daddy and grandpa will teach me how to fish. I hear grandpa's an awesome fisherman and that he taught daddy everything he knows. He must be pretty good. Look at the fish he helped Tyler and Uncle Ken catch at the last free fishing day!

Happy Birthday Uncle Ritchie!

Hummmm Baby!

Mommy ditched work today and went to the Giant's game (in a luxury box)...without me! What the heck???!!!

At least she brought me something. Go panda! (Dunno what pandas have to do with the Giants...but it's a cool hat!).
