I'm a Gangster...


...and a Purple Cuddlebug. This week, in anticipation of my mom starting her new job, I started attending "school." Every day, instead of running errands with my mom and trying to occupy myself with the same old toys, I now go to Hope 4 Kids where I squeeze sponges filled with soapy water, play with wine corks in a dirt bucket, water the organic snap peas, and crawl through colorful tunnels. And I am in the Purple Cuddlebug classroom. Upgrade!

So far, I love the social interaction and the activities. Most of all, I love the outdoor space. The nature-centered philosophy of the school was the main reason that my heathen parents were willing to overlook the fact that this is a "faith-based" school. "And on the second day, God created BUBBLES!"

In this month's newsletter the school director announced that they will be constructing a new "little Yosemite" outdoor area designed for teachers to bring small groups so that we can learn to "just be with the trees." Dig on that! (If any of you grandparents are looking for a nice tax write-off, trees can be sponsored at $100, and plants at $25 and $50.)

All week, my parents have been warming me up for tomorrow - my First Full Day of "School." Dun-dun-dunnnnn! No worries though, man. I am all over this.

Father's Day in Big Bear

To celebrate Dad's first Father's Day, we went to Big Bear with our friends the Henson's and Dad competed (?) in a super-gnar mountain bike ride. It was a beautiful day and a very fun weekend all around. I made this sign for Dad - not bad right? Here you can also see that the shenanigans with my girl Chloe persist. This girl can't get enough of me!

A Day at Padaro Beach Grill

Yesterday, we met up with some friends at this cool place called the Padaro Beach Grill. It's basically a playground that serves beer and burgers. It's a win-win for babies and mommies. I loved playing in the sand and made sure that we took some home with us.

Escape Artist

Watch me dazzle them with my cuteness as I make a break for the door.

Oh! Is that a camera?

When we went to watch the Tour of California in Solvang a few weeks ago, we were sitting next to a couple from Gold River. He was a photographer who took a fancy with our little family and was kind enough to send along some photos of the three of us. Photos of us all together are about as rare as the unicorn, or the dodo bird, and just as magical!

Homies Around the Home

We get bored, let's face it. Toys? Been there. Emptying laundry baskets? Done that. Sometimes we just get so bored that we want to take photos of ourselves (to share with you) so that it seems like we are having a good time. Got that? Keep up. Photos give life purpose when there seems to be none. Whoa.

Express Yourself

I'm told I'm an "expressive baby." A little man can say a lot with his eyebrows, and I have to because "dada" and "boo(k)" only gets me so far. The look on the top appeared just last week.
