m'ap mache!

yeah, i walk. i'm cool like that.

what a day!

i had such a big day today.  the "experts" at babycenter.com informed my mother that when i reach for my spoon i may be telling her something.  perhaps i am saying, "i'm ready to start feeding myself, mama."

cleverly, my mama waited until it was warm enough for us to eat outside before venturing down that path.  today was the perfect day for it!

first, i grabbed my bowl with both hands and 

attempted to dump it out.  then my mama reminded me that i can use my spoon to shovel food into my mouth.  i did a better job after that.

after lunch, i went out to the front yard to supervise the building of a rock wall.  it was tough work but i think i did fairly well.

 

when our friends who were helping build the wall went home, my mama let me play in the sand for awhile.  

i wanted to taste the sand, but nana scooped it out of my mouth.  that was okay though, because it didn't taste very good anyway.  

this last picture my mama said she would take for miss kristina. she said miss kristina loves "tootsie" pictures.

i am in

the "raspberries" stage.

"hmmm . . ."

"what to eat? what to eat?"

ides of march

i have been really busy, friends. let's see. it started with some blueberry pancakes that my mama made for me.

and then i helped nana out in the yard. we're planting flowers for spring.

and today we went to yosemite. it was really cold there. i haven't been since july and i didn't need my sweater then. but today it was hailing on us and there was a lot of snow on the ground. it sure was pretty, though.



now you can see why i haven't been able to post very often!
