I started this blog to document the adventures of my nephew, little did I know how my life would change in such a short time. It's eight years later and I am married to my best friend, we own a house, and have three amazing boys. We live a crazy blessed life and we'd like to share it with you.

Hangin' with my new buddy, Luke!

My Aunties introduced me to a new play buddy, Luke! They work with his mom. We went to the Zoo to see all the animals. We rode around in this cool wagon that we rented from the Zoo.












Luke came back with us afterward to my Aunties to have a nap. And after naps with the Aunties, we always have SNACKS while watching Baby Einstein. Yum Yum!








When we woke up from our naps, we got to go over to my house and play in the backyard. It was a hot day, so we got to go in the pool. Luke didn't want to join, but Aunt Hea got in the play with me....













Aunt Hea splashed me while we were playing in the pool! I tried to splash her back, but she was much better at it. But I LOVED IT!!!














After the pool, we talked Luke into playing in the sprinkler. We ran back and forth through the sprinkler. I really like Luke. I hope I get to play with him more often!

Zoning Out at the Aunties!!!

I love watching tv at my aunties house! When I watch Baby Einstein, it is hard to get my attention. My Aunt Hea says I am in training for football weekends. I have my remote and my sippy cup. What more do I need??

Dancin' at the Zoo!!

Ma-Ma, Da-Da, Auntie Mandy and Aunt Hea all took me to a concert at the Zoo. It was so much fun to be free to dance and sing on the lawn.














I have one word for you....M-O-R-E!!!! Why did they stop singing?? Get back on the stage....please!!!















Yeah! These people are great! Get up auntie Mandy...come over here and dance with me.
















Although my Auntie Mandy says I shouldn't be able to jump with both feet off the ground at my age....I love to do it all the time! Especially when I have full roam of the grass. Everybody....out of my way!!!













When I am not jumping around, I love to cut a rug. I get my moves from my dad. This music is so great! I love concerts at the Zoo. I hope we get to come back soon.














Five little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed...One fell Off and Bumped His Head!!! This is one of my favorite songs to sing with ma-ma and da-da. How do all of these people know that song too? I thought ma-ma made it up herself!

My Own "Pirates of the Caribbean"

Mommy and my aunties took me to the park for some fun before my nap. I think they were trying to tire me out, but I did a better job tiring them out first!















Up the stairs and down the slide...over and over again! I could do this all day if they would let me. I love the way the static in the slide makes my hair stand straight up. It shows how far I have come with growing a full head of hair!!!















To precious for words! That is what my mommy says. I stop for a pose for Auntie Hea peaking out a port hole in the Pirates Ship.













Aunt Mandy decides to join the fun and pose for a picture too. Aren't we a cute pair?










While playing around on the front of my "ship", I pose for another picture. The camera loves me!! My paparazzi follow me everywhere, but I don't mind.








They started me out on the "baby" swing, but by the end, I talked them into the Big-Boy swing! I can do it all by myself. I just need a little push...but not too big!!

Oh where oh where did my sippy-cup go?

My Aunt Mandy forgot to bring a sippy-cup for our afternoon together. So...they put some juice in Auntie Hea's elephant water bottle. It is a good thing I have muscles..that thing was HEAVY!!















AAAHHH!!! I'm just hamming it up for the camera. Have I mentioned how many people I have wrapped around my little finger??
















My aunties have so many pictures of babies on the refrigerator. I love to give the babies kisses. That is a picture of my cousin, Rosi. I wish I could see her more often. We would have lots of fun together!

Is is possible for me to BE any cuter??!!

It is a good thing both Auntie Hea and Auntie Mandy have cell phones. I need to stay connected with my people at all times...and they help make that happen.
















My aunties took me to get my picture taken for Mother's Day. They bought me this cool shirt for the photo shoot. Of course they couldn't resist taking some of their own photos when we got home.














My aunties are so wacky! They always make me laugh when we hang out. I love when they come and take me for the day. We have such fun adventures!!














My aunties have the coolest coffee table! I love to climb under and slide on my belly. I think they got it just for me to play on!!!

Another Trip with the Aunties!!

Here I stopped to pose for a picture for Auntie Hea as I was playing in the water fountain at Saturday Market in Portland. I love to hang out with my aunties and watch all the weird people!















I love my Aunt Mandy! She can always make me happy when I am a little cranky. She knows just how to make me laugh!















This guy made me a dog-dog out of a balloon!! He had his face painted and was just sitting on the side of the street! Like I said...I love Portland.








For lunch we got to listen to some really cool music. I enjoyed putting on my own show for the people sitting around us. I love to dance, and I guess I am pretty good because people around us kept saying how cute I am!














After lunch my aunties took me to the Waterfront to watch all the boats on the water. They let me run around too...with hopes to tire me out for my nap.
















One last ditch effort to run around with my aunties! I was so tired after all the fresh air. I fell asleep in the car and slept for 3 hours when I got home! My mommy had to wake me up I was so sleepy.

I LOVE BUBBLES!!!

My mommy is so good at blowing bubbles!! I love to run in the middle of them and let them fall all around me. Bubbles are so much fun!










Aunt Mandy is good at bubbles too. Well...not as good as mommy, but I still like playing with her.











I am a big boy...I can blow these bubbles myself!! I think Aunt Mandy broke it because it isn't working anymore...

Gotta Love Peanut Butter and Pumpkin Pudding!!

I love to help mom in the kitchen when she is making my homemade pudding! This is one of my favorites...Pumpkin Pudding!! I love to lick the spatula. Maybe a little more cinnamon mom!









Now it is on to lunch! My aunt Mandy took my shirt off to save on the mess. Unfortunately I am one of the whitest kids in the world! Good thing my girlfriends from daycare aren't around. But this peanut butter sandwich sure is good.








I don't know why they ruin a perfectly good meal by making me take a bath! I wish Aunt Mandy and Auntie Hea were here still so I could give them a big KISS!!








I love bath-time with Mom and Dad. We have so much fun getting me clean. They always make me laugh.











Back to a clean slate to get dirty again tomorrow! Don't worry...I won't have a problem recreating my masterpiece.
