The Summer 2008 Uber-Post!

Are you guys giving me the stink-eye for being gone so long? Let me just ask you a few questions.


Have you guys ever been to Seattle? Or moved? Holy cow, it keeps you busy! We have a new house, we had to move all our stuff in (boxes! rock!) and then we had to explore our cool new city! It's so cool! Did I mention cool? It's totally cool. I have to wear galoshes a lot though (pictured above...and below) because it rains here. A LOT.


Without further ado, here are some snaps of stuff I've been up to for the past oh, say, 3 1/2 months. Enjoy!

Let's start off with the most important event of the last few months...My 2nd BIRTHDAY!


Mama and Dada were a little too "helpful" during their candle-blowing demo...they blew all my dang candles out! Mama thought this was hilarious! And embarrassing. Grown-ups are weird.
In any case, the cake was deeeee-licious!
A little video interlude that I like to call, "Smiling Lessons."




Have y'all met my lady, Mrs. B? That's Mrs. Beasley to you.

Don't we look super-fly together? Some other things I've been showing love lately? The trees of the fabulous Pacific Northwest.


We even went on a whole tree-hugging camping adventure in the Olympic Peninsula. It was so fun!


What's that I see in my binoculars?
Elk!
They made it look so tasty, I decided to give "meadow" a try...
Tastes like carrots (this is a direct quote).

On a hike to look for...
More trees to hug!
Mine's cuter!
Peek-a-boo tree!

Banana slugs are weird...and cool!
I've also been hanging with my family more - it's a lot easier to visit now, since we don't have to fly in an airplane.

Mimi and I put on our make-up together in the morning.

I figure that if it's good on my lips, it must be good for cheeks, too, right?Am I not gorgeous?!?

Grandmama and Papa and I sing a song together...I think the itsy bitsy spider.
We've also been visited by friends from Michigan!

Yay for Brooke and Nolan and Micah!

Post Snoqualmie Falls Lollipop - I earned it!
Snoqualmie Falls were cool! Did I show you guys my cool new toy? Without further ado...


And now for this episode's installment of Stuff On My Head.

Diapers on my bottom? Diapers on my head.
My cool new "red" (aka pink) sunglasses! I picked them out myself.
Safety first!

In other random news, Mama and Dada celebrated their 5 year wedding anniversary, whatever that means. All I know is that they went out for dinner and I got to eat pizza with Mamoo and Pops! Suckers!
Speaking of Mamoo and Pops...they have a new KITTY! Named Lucy! LucyFur! I can't WAIT to visit her again.
Well, I gotta go. There's so much to do in Seattle, and just not enough time to write about it all. I'm off to the wading pool now, but hopefully I'll check back in before Christmas. Ha!
Until next time, I remain your humble, adorable toddler,

Water Park!

What's up, loyal readers? I'm just driving. It's one of my new favorite activities. I can even get the key in the ignition. Mama and Dada better watch out, because pretty soon I'm blowin' this popstand!

Today I got behind the wheel and started to drive myself to this new spray park that I heard about. Mama quickly took over for me, but hey, my goal was accomplished, right?
Whoa, this waterpark is crazy!

Holy cow, how does one get through this?
Hmmmm....maybe my hand can help....Oh, what the heck? I'm goin' for it!
Woo-hooo!

I am triumphant!Splashing is the best.
It's chilly though! Ready to go home for some dinner.
At dinner, I wonder how I can get my couscous into my sippycup straw....
I hear a voice telling me, "Use the force, Luke." I'm not sure who Luke is, but it seems like good advice. It works!
Later on I decide to take a break in the laundry basket. Aaah. So comfy!
Dada decided to try these glasses on me. What a geek!
Well, that's all I've got time for today. I've got to go get this onion out of my hair. It was my performance art piece of the day, but I know that Mama and Dada aren't going to get it. They're sooooo literal. Sigh.


Until next time, I remain your humble adorable toddler,
Silas T.
