I'm a Butterfly!! Thank you Isabella!

If 1 pacifier is awesome...two is........FANTASTIC.


I POSED for this picture. Momma asked me if she could take my picture and I patiently waited for her to get the camera and shoot!

I got sidetracked on the way to the garbage...


Poppa asked me to throw this away...but I was so interested in what he was drinking I had to try it.

Poppa knew I was gonna do this so there was nothing in the Bud Lite beer bottle...but it didn't keep me from turning the bottle entirely upside down to see if I could get a DROP!

I drool so much when I brush my teeth Momma put me in the tub!

Get me OUTTA here!

More fishing.....


fishing for tadpoles, salamander and salmon

Praciticing Fishing!


I can't wait to go fishing with you Poppa!

He loved driving the shoe at the Children's Museum


However..his left arm was rendered useless by the wristband he needed for proof that we paid...Daddy had to take it off of him!

I don't like Lou Malnati's either!!

We went to the Children's Museum at Navy Pier and Daddy was so happy to see the Lou Malnati's make your own pizza play station....but obviously, I agree with Momma and don't like it!!

Momma loves these flower photos!

Airplane? Helicopter? Truck? Loud noise?


This is what I do every time I hear an airplane, helicopter, etc. I throw my finger in the air and then expectantly look for the noise. If I can't find it, I ask Momma or Daddy to find it for me. How smart am I?

How to ruin a wedding...


Behind us is a wedding being held in the Cancer Memorial right by our house (don't ask WHY--Momma and Daddy think it is a terrible place for a wedding)...anyway, this is where I play all the time and these mean people were there. I wanted to play but Daddy wouldn't let me. I screamed the whole way back to the stroller.

Doing THE CRANE from The Karate Kid


Embarassingly enough, Daddy and Momma were watching the end of the karate kid and they taught me how to do The Crane. I was VERY good at it.

Being a STINKER!!


Graham carried his chair to the dresser, opened the drawer and threw his clothes onto the floor. The entire time he was SCREAMING with laughter so I would come into his room and see what he was doing!

Having lots of fun at the Viva Chicago Latin Festival

Writing at the table like Momma does when she works

Tio Jorge dropped by for a few minutes...


I showed him how fearless I was by jumping off the window ledge into his arms. He thinks I am crazy!

Great Aunt Vikki came to visit me!


I sure did put on a show when she came over with Grandma and Poppa. I was spinning and laughing and screaming to everyone's enjoyment. Thanks for coming over!

Talking on the phone, drinking my milk!

Wearing Daddy's shoes and holding his belt too...


Daddy is in the shower and I am patiently waiting to help him get dressed when he gets out.

Just me! I am 19 months old now.

Me and my chair....

I carry this chair all around the apartment and use it to climb onto things. Momma and Daddy are going to take it away from me very very soon...

Practicing walking in Daddy's shoes...

Oh, you want your shoes Daddy?

Caught working very hard at my alphabet puzzle.

I take everything and anything out of drawers and play with them

Jack, Lauren and Graham


My friend Meg and her kids visited Chicago this week. They were the sweetest kids EVER and played with Graham. He had a great time with them!

The BIG kids played with me!

Matthew McConaughey JUNIOR!


Playing the drums.

Two Points...with a unique object....

Being a bad Momma....


I was forced to plop him in front of the TV watching Plaza Sesamo (Sesame Street en espanol), eating Pirate's Booty popcorn with his milk and water so that I could manage a work crisis!!

He looks unhappy but he sat there for 10 full minutes until Daddy came home and took him to the park. BAD MOMMA!!
