Marco at 13 months!

Here I am at the Science Museum! (That's Julia next to me!)

I'm sooo good at pushing my toy!

Look at me! I am WALKING!

Chim-chiminee, chim-chiminee, chim chim choree!

Ohh, this is the good part!!!

Now that I am one I can do all sorts of neat things: I can walk. I like to push my walker toy around the house -- specifically around the kitchen where I help my mommy. I can take at least eight steps before I fall down. (Good thing I have padding.) I can sweep really well! I find that I do a better job from the standing position. Who knew?

I also like to read with my dad. My favorite book is Goodnight Gorilla. I used to like to eat the pages but now I like to listen and point out the animals! I think my second favorite book is The Very Hungry Caterpillar... I like looking at all the food the Caterpillar eats! Wow!

My favorite toys are my dump truck which I like to drive around the house. It's fun to launch it off the stairs and make it crash. (Mommy doesn't like this too much but oh well!) I also like my farm but Julia likes it too so I usually have to wait until she's done playing with it.

I LOVE to eat. Mom says I am a carnivore, whatever that is. I like chicken, beef, hamburgers and hot dogs. My favorite is beef but I won't turn down chicken either. I like vegetables too but not as much as meat. I also LOVE cheese and yogurt, and fruit. I think my favorite fruit is banana. Mom says it's because I'm a little monkey.

Speaking of monkeys, I like to climb. I try to climb up on the windows. That makes my mom scream which I think is funny. I am good at climbing on the couch and up on daddy's chair. It makes my mom scream when I do that too. She says I'm going to fall and bust open my head. I think she's being hysterical. Just wait until I can climb really high at the playground! Mom will really scream then! Hee hee.

I'm pretty good at pointing out my nose, my eyes, my mouth and my ears. Sometimes I like to point to the wrong thing just to see what my mom will do. I think it's really funny to point to my mouth when she says nose; or point to my ears when she says mouth. I think it makes mom nervous!

I think I'm going to be really good at taking things apart and putting them together some day. I cannot wait to get my hands on the computer, the dvd player, the washing machine, the oven and the toaster. I guess you could say that I like anything mechanical. Maybe I'll be a builder or an engineer??? Who knows. For the time being I just have to concentrate on getting taller!!

Bob the Builder!!

Here's where we went to the show!

Marco and Max having lunch at the neat cafe!

Madison and I playing on the exhibits!

Me and my friend Madison waiting to go into the show!


Last week we went to see the Bob the Builder show at the Science Museum! We went with my friend Madison and her brother Max. I LOVED it! We got to wear hats just like Bob! I even got up and danced with Bob and Wendy. (Mom said I pushed a little boy out of the way to get up front... I think mom is exaggerating a bit.)

I also helped Bob and Wendy build things -- a wall, a snake walkway etc. Mom said she was amazed because I don't like to participate in Tumble Tots but I danced and did things here. (What is she talking about!??? I LOVE Tumble Tots... I just don't like being told what to do. I like doing it on my own!)

Unfortunately, the people at the museum wouldn't let us take pictures of the show but mom took some pictures of our day at the museum. I hope we can go again soon!

The Happiest Place on Earth!!!

The entire group lands at Disney!


I really do like Tigger!

Mickey, Laynie and Julia!

I'm riding dumbo!! (you just can't see b/c mom was too close!)

My FAVORITE ride, "It's a small world"



My mom took me to Disneyland last weekend with some friends - My friend Laynie came with her mommy and her sister, Amaya; my friends Karsen and Garrett came with their mommy, Nancy, and my new friend Jude came with his mommy, Claudia. We had a great time!

We got to ride the big train (mom says it's called the Eurostar) which went really really fast. We had lots of snacks and played lots of games on the train. Before I knew it we were at Disneyland!

We stayed in a big hotel. Mickey and Goofy must live in the hotel because they came and danced with us every night. Plus, every time I'd go downstairs they were there. It was very fun seeing them so close.

We spent lots of time in Disneyland riding rides and walking around. I got tired but I did go on some really big rides. My favorite was "it's a small world" because there were lots of puppets and we were in a boat. I also liked Buzz Lightyear, Dumbo and Snow White. We also saw a neat parade. I wish we could've seen it more than once. Ariel was in it!!

I had fun with the big kids and my friend Laynie. I stayed up really really late and got to sleep in bed with my mommy. We had a slumber party but I didn't slumber all that much. We also got to eat dinner really late at night. Mommy said she thought I'd fall asleep. I never did though. I didn't want to miss anything!

I had a GREAT time and I really really REALLY want to go back. Maybe next time I can take Marco!????
