At Train Town, I guess the first thing you do is ride the train. All aboard!
You stop along the way to feed the animals. I think they were happy to see me.
Then there were lots of other things to ride on, like this car:
And I went waaaaaay up high on the Ferris Wheel with Daddy. Woah.
Of course, Avery and Ben went, too.
And we went on the Merry-Go-Round, too. Daddy was my helper again.
I think I’d like to go back again. That train was neat.

Sometimes I read with just Mommy or Daddy, but sometimes we read a story together with Ben.
Sometimes I’m just too wiggly to sit still for one of Ben’s big books, but this one had lots of pictures!

Well, it’s that time of year again. We took some pictures with Jeneanne. This year I got to keep Andrew from falling off of rocks and into the water while she was taking pictures of us – big job!
Ma and Pa were with us, too, which was a lot of fun.

We went to San Francisco today to see the Pirates play the Giants – my first major league baseball game!
Daddy got us really good seats – although he didn’t get us seats where the foul balls kept going. Next time, I want those seats!
I learned how to really root for your team:
We had some nice treats, like ice cream…
… and this thing Daddy called a ‘churro’.
Awesome! Except that the Pirates lost (7-5). Oh well.
It was such an exciting day that I fell asleep in the car on the way home – in my new Giants hat! Guess I’m a giants fan, now.

I went for my first ride on the motorcycle! That was really fun! It was just around the neighborhood, but maybe next time we’ll go further.
Andrew thought it looked like so much fun that he wanted to sit and try it out.
He found the neat flip toy that they build right into the top there where he can reach it. That motorcycle has something for everyone!

Daddy took me to see the Monster Trucks! Boy are they big and LOUD! And they go jumping really high in the air!
There were also motorcycles doing jumps and tricks.
And not only that, but I got to have a cupcake while I was watching.
What could be better? We had a lot of fun watching. I’d like to see them again when they come back to town.

Ho Hum… Just another day hanging around the house. This time, though, Daddy is looking out for me while we tour around.
He’s pretty talented. He can take pictures at the same time he’s holding me.
But it’s hard for me to get too excited about these things. <Yawn!> More sleep please, Daddy!
(Ed. Note: Me too, Andrew!)

Yesterday we went ice skating!
We started out just going for a ride around the ice. It was fun!
Then it was time to put the chair away and really try this out. The ice was very slippery, but Daddy was a big help.
A little later, there was a lesson on the basics. The ice was still very slippery. And cold. But I was nice and warm with my truck sweatshirt from Ma, and my ice cream hat that Mommy made.
Once we were all done, we went to the Warm Puppy Café for a hot chocolate. My friend Sydney was there with us.
We had a great time!

I just got back from my Thanksgiving trip to SoCal, and I wanted to share my trip to Legoland!
Even before we got into the park, we could tell we were in the right place. As Mommy would say, “Daddy and I were in the target market”.
First up was a ride on my first roller coaster: the Coastersaurous!
I wasn’t scared at all. It was really fun! You go up a hill, and then down and around two circles… then you get to do it again!
We also went on the Sky Patrol helicopters. I got to show Daddy how to make it go up and down and turn around!
Later, it was the Flight Squadron airplanes. Daddy did a great job of going on the rides with me so we could have fun together.
We had lunch, and I got a special treat: Chocolate covered marshmallows with M&Ms stuck on. Yum.
I had a great time with Grandma Harris, Mommy, and Daddy. I can’t wait to go back next time!

On the Saturday before Halloween, my buddy Jehan and I went to Howarth Park for the trick or treat party. We got to warm up our “trick-or-treat” voices – and get some candy!
I dressed as a construction worker, and Jehan was Spiderman.
And before Halloween can really get started, you have to carve your pumpkins, right? Here I am showing Daddy how to get the guts out!
Before the big night we turned off all the lights to see if our Jack-o-Lantern was spooky enough. Looks good!
When the big night came, I decided to go as a pizza. This costume leaves the arms free for good access to the candy.
It was raining, so M&D wanted me to wear my rain coat. I got lots of candy and M&D let me eat four pieces because I’m Four!
