Did I tell you that I can now jump and both my feet come off the ground? For real! It is so fun jumping, I could do it all day! Mommy took me to the Oakland Zoo the other day and it was way fun. I saw giraffes, elephants, zebras, monkeys, a giant turtle and lions and tigers. Mommy was really tired because it was a pretty hilly zoo. I did good though and walked up the big hill, so Mommy didn’t have to push me. We also went on a train ride that was pretty cool. And the Merry go round too. I had fun. My pal Tristan was going to come, but he got a fever that day. He’s feeling better now. ☺ I’m going to LA/SD with Pawpaw and Gung gung. They are taking me on a trip to the San Diego Zoo, Legoland and Jenna’s birthday party! I can’t wait to sing Happy Birthday to her. That’s my favorite song! Oh, and I really am excited to see the Panda bears at the SD Zoo.

Real Labor Day

It’s Labor Day and Daddy asked his friends over to our new place to do just that….labor. Uncle Ken, Uncle Ryan, and Uncle Joel came and worked on the little projects that Daddy has. I think they enjoyed getting dirty, but I’m sure they were tired after. ☺ My language skills are getting better too. I can say “complex” sentences and also have conversations with Mommy. I’ll say, “what do today?”…”maybe go zoo”…”animals, zebra, giraffe, horsey, bird, flamingo…zoo”. Or I’ll say, “me pour sand in tower”…”make spin around”…”me turn over stuck”…Pretty good huh? I know, not exactly grammatically correct, but there’s a thought process there. Some days I eat pretty well, but other days, not so. I don’t like spinach or any other leafy green, though I suspect Mom is trying to sneak them in somewhere….I like corn and peas, though.

Did I tell you that I am going to have a few new friends soon? First, in December, I’m going to welcome a baby brother! Yippee!!! And then in January, Auntie Jen and Uncle Ken will have a baby boy. Also, Auntie Sarah and Uncle Kelvin will have another boy, and then in February, Auntie Lydia and Uncle Ryan will have a baby too! Wow, lots of little friends soon! I’m so excited, cuz I love babies!
