Happy Birthday to My Nana

Just wanted to show you what I'm up to these days. I can reach up to the T.V. power button. I love Sesame Street and "Eh-mo" right now. Snuffleupagous even taught me how to play ring-around-the-rosie and I love to dance to Patty Labelle's gospel version of the ABC's. Some of my new words: "Up", "Dow(n)", "Kitty", "Cute (insert anything here)", and "Dawg". My mom says you have "dawgs" and that I would love them.
Miss you,
Ian

Mom had to convince Dad that I wouldn't get any diseases from playing in the water at the park. She won out and in I went...

Loma-ing it with Eva Nelle

The water table is so fun!

Dede (Deh-deh)

Grandma's porcelein cow and duck say "MMMMMM". Grandma also learned a valuable lesson: vases and toddlers don't mix.

Little Cousin Dominic

Cousin Dominic is visiting San Francisco this week. The kids met for the first time. So sweet. Ian ran after the seagulls at the Ferry Plaza. The he ran and ran and ran some more.

Sunday walks with Dad

Hi, Dadee!

Happy Birthday. A look back to last year about this time. We were probably hoping he'd fall asleep or stop crying or both when we took this picture.

Mailbox

Loves this mailbox. Exclaims "weee" when he gets a shape inside.

The Three Second Tantrum

or "No Tears". Either the cell phone or the keys will usually snap him out if it.

The Last of the Parties

Happy Birthday, Ally! Ian had fun playing with his friends and the ice box, too.

A Friday Dip at Eva's

Eva's backyard. There's a robin's nest in there with three new babies!

Ian loved the pool, even after a face full of water.

Friends Colin and Leah

Watering Eva's flowers

Eva's mom, Sarah, hosted a nice Friday at her house. Thanks, Sarah! Great way to end the work week.

Big Shoes to Fill (or Zapato Gigante)

The future of Ian's feet.
Kyle once asked his own dad what "Sabado Gigante" meant. His dad replied, "Big Shoes".

Happy Friday to Dad!

From your cat and your kid.

It's Kisses all Day Long

Always Something in that Mouth...

No Flash

Ian's always on the move. If we didn't have flash on our cameras, we'd never get a clear pic of him.
