AHH parenthood

My daughter the cook... don't get near her!

Mount Vernon


Visiting Uncle Michael



My haircut

My very first real haircut... let me explain.
When I was born my hair was dark-dark brown. It grew and some fell out. BUT one piece. There was one section (a little group of hairs) on the side of my head that never did anything. It just kept growing. Finally I was about 4 inches and the rest of my hair was only one. So mom took me to Danette her hair dresser to cut it off. If you want to be technical, this is my second but first WHOLE head hair cut.
I was not so sure about scissors coming near my head, as you can see. Mommy took me so that my hair would have 'shape', or so she explains my trama. But my hair does look better now. Danette refused to give me bangs because she called it a down-hill spiral of the eternal bang. So Mommy trusted her and puts clips in my hair until it's long enough. Mommy kept the hair from my hair cut and I got a cookie. I think I got the better deal!



Bye Bye Kevin and Gina

Daddy's co-workers, Kevin and Gina, left for Wisconsin. We went to the beach to see them off. It was wonderful. The sunset was amazing. And I was mesmorized by the sound of the waves. Mom and Dad thought about getting me a noise machine for my room since I liked it so much.

Pumpkins! Pumpkins!

Our pumpkin adventure began at Irvine Park. This facility is amazing! There's a bounce house, face painting, the train, and a corn maze. We had a great time. I found it fascinating with all the pumpkins in one place. It was just like the book that mom read to me. Mom, Dad and I posed for a picture but I wouldn't stay still so we all look kinda funny!
There were two things I loved about the pumpkin patch. The first was these really cool photo head things. I played peek-a-boo with other little kids, and daddy. Mommy loves this photo.



My other most favorite activity was the train. I was mesmorized.


The next week Mom and I chaparoned Grandma's field trip to the pumpkin patch. This time we went to Tanaka Farms. It was fun but WAY too hot! Mommy hadn't expected the change in weather and we were both miserable. However, it started great. I got to try a petting zoo. I picked veggies and I picked my own pumpkin off the vine. That was nifty. I think I could be a farmer :)

Apple Picking!

So my family and I went up to Glen Oak, CA to go apple picking. As you can tell from the photos, I liked this activity a lot! Especially because I ate about 8 apples while we were picking them from the tree. Mommy said I was stealing so she didn't fill the bags all the way full.





My favorite part was the 'band'. They were rockin! My new friend and I danced until it was time for our naps!

Everyone had so much fun that we will definitely be doing that again next year!
