Mexico & thank you to G&G D.

Just got back from the Mexico cruise - I had a blast playing w/ Ethan & Colby and seeing everyone else. I'm definitely getting smarter since I can now say everyone's name.

I didn't really like sleeping in my pack-n-play, but the cabin was comfortable. While the room was a tad small, I was thankful it had many fun toys (phone, trash cans) and semi-dangerous things to climb on (bed & windows).
Developed a smooth move for breakfast - I would walk up to random tables, wave and say "bye-bye", blow a kiss w/ my hand then walk away. This sequence brought a lot of smiles.

Be sure to check the pics & captions - among the highlights are play shots w/ my cousins and a massive meal at The Office in Cabo.

Thanks you to Grandma and Grandpa D for the cruise and playing w/ me when Mommy & Daddy were on excursions.

At the first breakfast, Ethan looked out the window and proclaimed he saw a whale. Several minutes later, someone noticed several dolphins in the horizon that were jumping out of the water. Ethan was convinced he saw a whale - who knows.

USC Weekender

Hi all,

Sorry I haven't posted in a bit.

Big weekend - it was the USC Weekender and both Glenn Davis and Mark Jacobs came to town. I had a fun time playing w/ those guys, but it's a rip-off that I don't get to go to the HPR - maybe next year. USC won and I'm glad I didn't go to the game - it rained very hard the entire time. Here a few recent pics - be sure to hceck the Berkeley tree people!

Dude! Sweet!

On Saturday, daddy took me to the sports bar to meet mommy & Ellen plus Sheryl and Tom, who were visiting from Ohio. (They were there watching the OSU game)

Then, Julian Alexander and Tara Church showed up. They were very cool; I found it quite easy to amuse them. They got me a sweet gift - well, the pictures speak for themselves. Tara wrote "We're delighted that you like your jacket ... You really look dashing" What can I say, the jacket is sweet - I even wore it for a bit on both Saturday evening and Sunday morning. (yes, I think it's velour)

Rest of the weekend was rather quiet. Mommy and daddy did a lot of work in the garage and backyard while I tried to play with the most dangerous items around me. Had a blast stomping on puddles, smearing the water, sitting on wet ground then going to mommy for a hug.

Halloween

Had a special field trip on Tuesday - I got to visit mommy's office! I was a little bashful, but I roamed around a bit and gave out some 5's.

Halloween was stellar. During the day, I wore my costume to the park and got to see many of my friends and their costumes.

In the evening, we went to Oscar's for a little party. Then we headed to Belvedere Street where me met Elmer Fudd (Nate D.) and his parents. It was fun to see some other kids, but I still think Halloween is more for my parents than me. Maybe I'll be more interested next year. Regardless, one has to be impressed w/ the residents of Belvedere Street and all of the decorations and designs - my favorite house was the Happy Feet one that had adult-size penguins dancing in the windows (pic in album) Toward the end of the night. I was being a little adventurous by running up hill - unfortunately, I broke away and tried running downhill - bad idea - took a spill and cut my lip. Sort of ironic that daddy dresses as the hockey player but I got the fat lip.
