watching gibbons

the gorrillas were sleepy, but we caught the gibbons before nap time.

fun with cousin blake

I just love my cousin Blake. I hang on to him until he screams...

he is holding my hand here very nicely -

it was a compromise to me clinging onto his shirt and back.

big brother to...

We are going to have to start calling this max maxwell and his little sister in jan.

here are the first pictures of my sister...

her foot

and proof she is a girl, so the dr. says

Grandparents are visiting from Texas this week and we went to Kid's World - so fun!
notice the theme? Alamo shirt and Galveston hat.

i love the camera!

i was very happy to pose for the camera after drinking my custard yogurt...

but i was very unhappy when dad put the camera away (actual tears and screams - i believe it's called the terrible twos)
this was easily resolved by asking said toddler to pose for another picture...

hence the second drinking of custard yogurt.

Lake Tahoe

we stayed at the marriott in south lake and this is the "village" area. i loved to play around this fountain.

and i love the gondola, which is right above the fountain, and right next to the cold stone creamery, very convenient for yummy fun.

Hiking Lake Tahoe

This actually around Taylor Creek (i think that was it). It was a great walk for me, not too long and lots of bugs and fish to look at.

This was this neat underground interactive "thing" where you could see under the creek and all the fish swimming.
this is the fish's mouth...
