Water fun!

Sometimes it gets very hot out here, so my buddy Cory and I play in a little pool on our deck. My mama thinks I look fierce in the first photo, but I'm really having a good time! Check out the video if you don't believe me! By the way, that's Cory crying in the background because he wanted / did not want to be in the pool. He's silly.

Happy me!

I'm normally just very cool and mellow, but I have my moments where my face lights up in a big, happy smile. I don't remember what happened here, but I am all teeth!

Update!

I don't have a picture yet, but I now have a third tooth coming out on the bottom. Probably something happening up on top, too, but I won't show my mama or dada. Heehee.

Today, I pointed to a book on the floor and said "book". Mama and dada were so excited -- I'm not really sure why. They're silly.

I have more than two teeth... I promise

I have at least six teeth. I can't count yet, but that's what my mama tells me. She says she can see four on top and two on the bottom. But I only ever show off my two bottom teeth!

How to dunk a ball

Since you were so impressed with my dunk before, I thought I would show a tutorial on how to dunk. The photos below show the proper, step-by-step technique for a one-handed dunk. I didn't have a basketball handy, so I used a football (American) instead.

My buddy Cory...

During the week, when my mama and dada go to work, I play with Cory all day. We have lots of fun together. He's four months older than me, but I'm almost as tall as he is. But he is much bigger!

How do I get down?

I love climbing onto things, but sometimes I don't know how to get back down, even when I'm only a few inches off the ground. Which is silly, since I am an expert at getting off the couch -- my mama and dada showed me that the best way to do it is backwards, leading with my feet!

I can dunk!

My dada showed me how to dunk, and I'm really good at it! You'll see from the video... After my dunk, my fans started screaming!

The best walker ever!

A day after I turned one, I took ten steps all by myself! About a week later, walking (albeit a little wobbly at times) became my primary mode of locomotion (and, yeah, I do speak like this! haha). The video shows some of my early steps.

My birthday party!

I turned one on June 19, 2008! For my first birthday party, my mama and dada invited all of my little friends (and some of theirs, too). We had a sports theme, and I wore my Suisse soccer jersey, which my cousin Keiana got for me.
