Daddy's Day

We took daddy, uncle, and lolo to Parker's Lighthouse Saturday night. It was a gorgeous day.

The daddies, lolo, and the girls.

The games from Apple apps are awesome. Occupies me while waiting for dinner.

Wrangling pasta alfredo.

Happy and satiated daddies and their girls.

Mommy and I took out daddy for breakfast the following day. Then we hit the nearest playground to play.

Weeeeeee!!! Happy day!

Sunday Stroll

Mommy and I like to take a morning stoll at the Arboretum.

I like to visit my peacock friends like this gorgeous one.

This guy was impressive. I guess he was trying to attract them lady peacocks. But you know what the problem is? There are no lady peacocks around except us human ladies. He kept impressing us by slowly turning around like a satellite dish. Maybe he's trying to get better HBO reception or he may have lost his mind. We're just saying...

Let's put some sunscreen on yah, little boy.

So, uh, where's the snake head you're talking about, mommy?

What is this kangaroo doing here!!? Oh...we're in the Australian Gardens. Got it.

Whimsical structures adorn the garden. Very cool.

Ceramic structures up close.

Bears, butterflies, tarantulas..oh my!

My parents and I went to this very cool place called Museum of Natural History.

Here's me and mommy hanging out on the steps.

Excuse me, Mr. Dinosaur. Could you please give me a piggy back ride?

This polar bear is pretty tall. Kind of intimidating.

I think I like this brown bear better. He reminds me of Bear from "Bear in the Big Blue House."

Just checking to see if this dude's teeth are okay. Okay he's missing some.

Maybe they're here somewhere in this excavation. Don't worry dinosaur, I'll find them.

We saw some amazing exhibits. Mommy was in awe of the background murals.

This is one honkin' tarantula! He's huge and very hairy! I told my daddy, "I don't like that one."

I love the "Pavilion of Wings". I got to walk around and check out colorful butterflies up close.

Here's one of them.

There was so much to see at the museum. I was a little tired at the end of the day, so I decided to relax on top of this froggy. He was cool about it.

Rockin' out

Changing bed linens is way more fun when you have a toddler on the bed rocking out to Lady Gaga and Gorillaz...

Another way to clean floors

MATERIALS:

1) Toddler
Tip: A semi-cranky-in-"no"-mode-toddler works the best as they will automatically lay on the floor and purposely drag their clean clothes on it. So really, no effort on your part.

2) Dog and ice cream
Note: These are optional if you want a longer cleaning cycle from the toddler.
Tip: Position dog in dirty area for better results and toddler will move around the dog. Ice cream will provide added energy to the toddler and possibly increase the speed of movement around the dog.

The toddler will go on moving in circles around the dog as long as ice cream is present. Repeat cycle as necessary (or if toddler is up to it).
