Still cold

Outside looks so nice through the window. Why does it have to be so cold?

Chef Cole

Today I cooked everyone a four-star, three course meal.

#1: Spider snacks! Don't worry they weren't real spiders. They had peanut butter guts, pretzel legs, and cinnamon candy eyes.
#2: Taco-Chili Bake. A tasty Mexican dish sprinkled with paprika.

#3: Fake grilled cheese sandwiches with fries! Well, that is what it looked like but it was really cake with orange icing and baked apple slices. Pretty sneaky, huh!

Superhero

I did mention that I am a superhero, right? Do you need proof?

COSI with Grandma

Today Cole and I showed Grandma around COSI. She was very impressed by all the science we did.

I'm the little dinosaur. I'm showing you my sign for hot, but turns out the cloud machine was just right. I promised to not knock over Cole's structure and he promised to let me go inside with him. We ate lunch in the cafeteria and entertained Mommy and Grandma with lively conversation.

Grandma and Grandpa are here!

Yea! Time for talking and dancing and singing and cookies and hugs and kisses and showing off and movies.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Today was Mommy's Birthday! I celebrated by blowing lots of bubbles for her and singing Happy Birthday many times. I wrote the word HAPPY in a shiny birthday card for her. Daddy helped me make her birthday cake, including cracking the eggs and decorating it. I thought I made a convincing argument for blowing out the candles and opening her presents for her, but I guess only the birthday person gets to do that.

Didn't I make a great looking cake?

New look

When Cole needs a haircut he goes to the haircut store, sits in a race car, and watches cartoons. When I need a haircut Daddy gets out his clippers. I'm not sure if I'm ok with that or not.

Hey! Do Daddy and I have the same ears?

Brothers are fun

Having a brother is lots of fun (most of the time). Luke tries to copy everything I do and say. But he's only 1 so its not that easy for him. He is getting better at running, but I'm still faster.
Because I'm so old I can help Luke with lots of things, like the straw on his juice box.

Spring is here!

Hide and seek

Cole will never find me here!

Look boss, the plane, the plane!

One of the boys

I'm doing my best to keep up with Cole and Daddy. Its hard being 1 year old sometimes. I can see what they are doing but I can't always make my body do it too, or do it as fast. Someday I'll be older and then I'll be the big boy. Maybe they'll even try to copy me.

Hey wait up!

Hmmm. What are we looking at? Is this what older people do?

Cole is great at throwing leaves in the air. I'm trying, too!

Babysitting

This weekend I took care of the mouse from my classroom. I fed him dinner, let him ride in the car with me, built him a house out of magnatiles, took him to the park, shared my bed during nap time and at night, and talked, talked, talked to him about all kinds of stuff. We'll have lots of stories to tell my friends and teachers at school tomorrow!

The Force

Being a Jedi Master takes lots of training. I like to work on my Force Push during bath time. Its a powerful move.

Hygine

Washing your hands is very important. Especially when you have a stomach bug and have to have your diaper changed 10 times a day.

Pudding

I helped mommy make pistachio pudding. Its green and yummy! Wanna try some?

Control

I may be only one year old, but I certainly know what the most popular device in the house is. Mommy and daddy have several decoy remotes. Ha! Like I can't tell the difference? The power is all mine!
