Tumbling Time... with balls!

Here I am playing at Toddler Tumbling Time... and again, there were no other kids, but that's okay, because I like to play with my Mor (Lisa), too! Besides, I mostly just want to throw and kick all of the balls around the tumbling shapes. My Mor sets up everything for me to climb on, since we're the only ones there!

Notice my SHORT hair!

First SHORT Haircut

My hair was getting pretty long and since I share my Mor's (Lisa's) morning bed head (see pictures)... we decided to try a shorter haircut for the Summer. My Mommy (Steph) loves it. But, my Mor (Lisa) thinks it's a wee bit too short. Luckily, it will grow out!

AFTER:

Playing Outside

My Mommy (Steph) took these pictures when I was outside playing with "Plex" (a character from a show I watch called "Yo Gabba Gabba"). I call him "Gaga"... to which my Moms laugh because of someone they listen to (sing) who calls herself "Lady Gaga", but I don't know who that is! 

I let my Gaga climb a tree and play on my slide / climbing cube!

New hat and mittens

My Mommy (Steph) found these hat and mittens on clearance and the other day, when the weather got a bit chilly and I wanted to go outside to play, she let me try on my new hat and mittens... along with my camo-dino pj's and my bee boots! Beautiful! I loved my new hat and mittens so much I didn't want to take them off!

Dandelions

I'm learning to blow the "fairies" off of dandelion heads! Here I am in my wagon, while my Mom takes us for a walk, and I'm still practicing blowing... in the end, after getting some of them stuck on my teeth, I found it easier just to PULL the "fairies" off!

Shopping with Mommy

This is the first time I wanted to get in one of these "car" shopping carts. I got to "steer" but I got a little confused why it wasn't turning the way I wanted it to go!

New Raincoat

My moms found this raincoat on clearance at Old Navy and it was hanging in my armoire in my room, because it's a 3T (I'm only 2!). But, I demanded loudly that I wanted my "coat"... so, even though it is very warm upstairs in my room, my Mor let me wear it... until my cheeks got rosy and  I started sweating! She thought it was funny, because I just recently started to like to wear: shoes, coats, and hats... all things that just a few weeks ago I "hated" to put on and wear!

She had to roll the sleeves a little. But, it's lined so it will be great for the coming Fall and next Spring or going to the coast this Summer (if it's rainy). She said I could wear it the next time it rains. And, my both my fireman boots and my bee boots match the bright yellow! I really like yellow things!

Growing Big!

I'm learning to eat (with a fork) by myself... but, my Mor doesn't think I'm very coordinated, so she tries to help me when I want to do it by myself!

She took this picture of me when I was napping on the guest bed in my room. I like to lay under my "leaves" that I call a "tree" (from IKEA). Look how LONG I'm getting!

The Flowers are Blooming!

All of the tulips are blooming and the lillies are budding. I get to help water all the flowers and the vegetables in the container gardens. I really like the water and I water myself, too!

Mother's Day at Outside-In

Because my Mommy (Steph) is only home on weekends, sometimes we get to go out to eat for lunch or dinner... and on Mother's Day, we went to a bistro in Redmond called "Outside-In" for lunch. It is themed for kids my age and a little older with several play areas filled with books and toys and games and comfy couches to climb on!

I really like the Melissa and Doug elephant that you can sit on. I decided to eat my lunch on it! I didn't even care that some girl put a pink tutu on it! 

It used to be a wine tasting room before it was this place. So, there are several nooks for toys and play areas. There are a lot of oversized leaves (like the ones I have in my room, from IKEA) and stuffed jungle animals hanging from the walls and upper balconies. FUN!
