Catching Up ...

It's been about a month since I've posted pictures! We've been busy having fun and Mommy ends up being too tired at the end of the day to play on the computer. So, here are a bunch of pictures from the month of October ....

Yummy Cookies! I got to help Miss Bonnie make them and now I get to eat them!

With Daddy up at Apple Hill


My first Choo Choo ride up at Apple Hill. While we were waiting for the train to start going, Michael said "all done!" I think he was a little nervous about the ride. Once we got going though, he loved it and asked for more.


My first "real" train ride! We took Amtrak to Martinez where Aunt Betty (A.B.) picked us up so we could go play at her house. We had the car all to ourselves, so it was great! He loved looking out the window saying "moo" to the cows.




Passing time on the train ... we got stopped at one point because a large truck had taken out one of the crossing arms. The train had to stop suddenly because cars were going across the tracks with the train coming!






We made it! Okay, it was only a 45 minute ride but it was long enough for him! This is us with A.B. Did I mention that my mom came with us? She took all the pictures for us ... but I was glad to have her along!






Michael and AB in her backyard with the bubbles. That's Uncle Tom in the background planting things.



This was the quiet hideout at AB's, where a dirty diaper was made!


Michael in the backyard here at home ... with his new haircut that makes him look so old!


Inspecting the rock ....



Just as I was getting ready to take pictures of him playing in the pile of leaves, the camera died ... this is him on his way to get his rake so he could mess with the leaves.

Lake Tahoe Trip

Here are some pictures from our recent trip to Lake Tahoe. We all had colds so didn't do too much, but both sets of Grandparents came up to stay with us during the week and it was great. Michael was so thrilled to wake up and have someone else around other than Mom and Dad!

Here is our visit to the beach .. I think Tony had more fun building his little sand city!



Hunting for rocks....

Sitting in the "big boy chair" to eat, barely able to see over the table

Nana playing with Michael on the playground

"Cheeeeeese"

Working very hard at building something before bedtime
