Pub Kids

Mama took me to visit her old Pub friends yesterday! It has been 11 years since they all met at the infamous Pub - bussing, hosting, bartending and waiting tables. The Pub was where mama and papa met and worked together too! Pub love is what they called it =)

Here is the next generation of Pub kids...

Me, Kendal (29 months), Reese (14 months), Jack (28 months), and Gabriella (3 months) - unfortunately, Zander (4yrs) couldn't make it...Children of Mama, Colleen, Michelle and Kim.

Getting cozy with Heidi!

Kim making me smile.

Cutie Gabriella!

Happy in Kendal's arms!

Halloween Fun

Uncle Brian and Auntie Amy hosted a Halloween cookie and pumpkin decorating party on Saturday. All the kids dressed up in costume, including me! There were two babies dressed up as pumpkins and we looked like twins. Papa got confused and almost took the wrong baby home! Well, not really but he did momentarily get us mixed up. We had such a great time we hope Uncle Brian and Auntie Amy have another party for Christmas!

Meeting Kendal and Reese

Mama went to visit her friend Collen today where I met Kendal (29 months) and Reese (14 months). I slept most of the visit, but woke up at the end just in time for this kodak moment. Kendal was really sweet. She kept giving me kisses and telling me she loves me. Reese couldn't stop smiling and enjoyed looking at me.

Reese hamming it up for the camera.

Cedar Creek G-Kids

Small, Medium and Large =) Here are the 2008 Cedar Creek Grandkids meeting for the first time. Graham is 8 months, Isaac is 4 months and Henry is 1 month. They are going to have a great time growing up together and playing at the holiday gatherings. The moms had fun showing off their little tikes and sharing stories.

Happy Birthday Mama!

We had a last minute gathering at the Ross house to celebrate Rachel's 30th birthday and to show off Henry. It was quite the turnout despite the short notice. Thank you Bethany for the awesome appetizers and delicious cake - you're the best!!!

Tiffany making me smile!

On my best behavior for Uncle Pete and Auntie May.

Outdoor Activities

Mama took me to Greenlake for the first time last Friday. We met up with Auntie MariJo and cousin Levi. I happily took a nap the entire way and unfortunately missed the turtles sunbathing on the log.

Mama and Papa took me to visit Grandma Linda at her friend's lake house in Tulalip. It was a gorgeous and crisp Saturday afternoon. I wasn't too keen on taking a walk on the beach, but quickly fell asleep in my mama's arms.

Playtime with Papa

Not only did Mama capture playtime with Papa on film, but she also took a video of silly Papa having fun with me. Some think a picture says a thousand words, but sometimes it's more fun to have a video say it for you...fight the power!

Yup, I'm a Cutie!

Meeting Chase

We headed to Razzals for dinner with the Eackers last weekend where I met Chase for the first time. I may be one year behind, but I'll catch up quick! Before you know it, Chase and I will be getting into trouble just like our dads. Nothing too reckless - just enough to keep our parents on their toes.
At Razzals - yummy prime rib and french dips!


Chase getting to know me better.
Me? Trouble? Naw...I'm too cute!

More Visitors

I am still really popular and have lots of visitors come to my house just to see me. Some are meeting me for the first time. Others can't get enough of me and keep coming back for more.

Grandpa Patches holding me for the first time. Don't worry - I won't break!

Uncle Dan - please take me to the Seahawks game!!!!

Uncle Ben - Can I go to the Big E, please?

Brian and Will - thanks for the Dahlias!

Auntie Jen giving me love.

Auntie Tiffany holding me.

Aaron and Papa - enjoying a 40. Things really haven't changed ;)

My First Bath

Not my favorite thing to say the least, but a necessary evil. I've had a few more baths since and still don't like them. I'm sure my feelings around bathtime will turn around especially once I get to splash the water and play with my bath toys.
Mama cleaning my face.
My favorite part was cuddling with mama afterwards.

Henry and Kate

Kate was in town a couple weeks ago. I was 5 days old. We both were tired and took a nap together. At the end of our visit we exhanged kodak moments with our mommies. We're a pretty good looking couple, if I can say so myself.
