Trip Number Two to L.A.

Last weekend my parents took me back to L.A. and as you can see I did a better job at staying awake BUT I only managed to stay awake until we got on the plane. The ride to the end of the runway put me to sleep. I missed the whole thing again! I tried so hard! I wanted to feel what it was like to fly through the sky like the birds I've been noticing lately.

I got to see Uncle M.J. again. He was even more fun than the last time I saw him. He made all sorts of funny faces at me and he was really good at making silly noises too. He even let me drool on his hands a little bit.

Finally I met someone who was smaller than me! My mommy is holding Danny, her friend J.J.'s son. He is only two weeks old and weighs about 7 pounds. Can you believe that I was almost that small just 4 months ago??? No wonder I am tired all the time! I've been doing a lot of growing!!

Oh, did I mention how hot is was in LA? I thought it was hot where I live but it almost felt hotter in L.A. My parents told me that I was spoiled because I am used to air conditioning, fans, and humidifiers. Grandpa Gordon took me for my first dip in the pool. I can't wait until I am able to go swimming like cousin Malia.

Cousin Malia was so excited to see me. She likes to play with me and help Mommy feed and change me. I can't wait until I can move around so I can keep up with her! I think she'll be even more excited to see me and play with me then!

4 Months Old

So today I had my 4 month old doctor's appointment and for those of you interested in my stats they are: 25 1/2 inches long and 14lbs 5oz. Doctor says that I am growing and getting stronger every time she sees me. I got 4 shots today; I didn't feel the first one, I cried for 2, 3 and 4 but then Daddy and Mommy held me and made me feel better. I am getting better at this, remember the last picture after my shots? This time I managed to give mommy a smile!

Happy Fathers' Day

I would like to wish all of the fathers in my family a Happy Fathers' Day. I personally believe that my daddy is the best though (like my shirt says). We have so much fun together. He makes me laugh, especially when he sings the peanut butter and jelly song for me. He is so silly! Next time you see him you should ask him to sing the peanut butter and jelly song for you.
We spent Father's Day with the Torres family. Here is picture of all of the fathers and their babies. Me and Daddy, Uncle Danny with Michael and Carlos with Marley. Carlos is Danny's Daddy and Uncle Danny is Michael's and Marley's daddy. We were all there to cheer for Lakers. I am glad that they ended up winning because it made my daddy so happy.

Why won't he talk to me?

So Mommy introduced me to a new friend. They only problem is I can't figure out why he won't talk back to me. No matter how much I talk to him or smile at him he won't say anything back! I even tried to stick my hand in his mouth (which normally gets my parents to respond to me) but I couldn't find it. I got bored with him so I stopped talking to him.

Whose your Daddy?

No one will ever ask me that question, huh? I am no expert but I'd say Daddy and I look a lot alike. Plus people keep telling Mommy and Daddy that I look like a smaller version of Daddy.

More people I met along my journey...

This is a picture of Mommy and Daddy and their friends Mike and Laura-Ann. They were going out for a night on the town and decided to take this funny picture, like they were posing for the prom or something. Uncle Mike and Auntie Laura-Ann are fun people and they seem to go where ever I go. I see them in Arizona a lot and then I went to LA they were there too! I am glad that they around so much because they are fun to play with and they have a dog I can play with when I am bigger.

This is Max. He is almost 3 years old and his mommy (Tammy) and my mommy are friends...

This is Anni. She is 6 years old. I went to her dance recital on Saturday to watch her dance on this big stage. I was able to stay awake long enough to see her first dance but I couldn't make it up through the whole thing. I missed part of it because it was during my nap time.

Here she is holding me. That is her mommy, Auntie Christine.

My New Friend

This is my new friend in Torrance, Blake. Mommy told me that he is only two months older than me. My mommy and his mommy have been friends since kindergarten. Daddy and his mommy have been friends since high school.

Look at us, already holding hands.

This is Blake's mommy, Laura. Her shirt tasted just as good as anything else I put in my mouth. As you can see I don't discriminate what I put in my mouth; my hand, the rattle, a shirt, sometimes my diaper cloth.. anything I can pick up and and will fit in my mouth will do. My parents are going to have to keep their house extra clean when I start moving around!

The Moss Side

I spent the next day with my mom's family.


Pictured here is Great Grandma Helen, Great Aunt Margie, Mommy, Grandma Moss holding me, Grandpa Moss, and Daddy.

Here I am at Grandma Moss's library (she doesn't own it but she works there). There was so many books there and they wouldn't let me chew on any of them. I better get reading soon if I am supposed to read all of those books in my lifetime.


Here I am with Grandpa Moss. Grandpa loves car races and he let me watch part of one with him. The cars went round and round and never went anywhere! But it was cool because they made funny noises and they went really fast.


Here I am with Cousin Rachel, inspecting my rattle. I am starting to love my rattle for several reasons. Now I am able to get it into my mouth without hitting myself in the face AND by chewing on it I am able to get my gums to stop hurting.


Here I am with Mommy, and Cousin Brittany. This is also one of my new favorite poses. My middle two fingers will do when I can't get to my rattle.
