The Little Ham I Am

Mommy says that I remind her more and more of Daddy every day. She says that she's so happy that she has me to bring her so many laughs throughout the day.

Here I was being a goofball when I was supposed to be eating my lunch today.

Today I also decided that I still like my little baby bouncer. I am just a bit too big for it but I was having so much fun that Mommy didn't care.

I still like reading my books all the time. My new thing is to look at the books both right- side up and upside down. They're much more interesting that way.

My puppies love being around me all the time and I think they're a lot of fun to play with. I think my puppy Lakota wishes that I was a little bit bigger so that we could play frisbee together. Today, after he would fetch his frisbee he kept dropping it in my lap so that I could throw it for him, so Mommy helped me out a little.

My First 4th

Yesterday, Mom, Carissa, and me celebrated the 4th of July at the beach. I couldn't play in the water too much because the waves were bigger yesterday, but I still had fun playing in the sand like usual. The fireworks were on the sound side of the island this year which Mom was kind of bummed out about, but they still looked pretty. At first I was kind of scared of the noise, but after a few went up and I saw all the pretty colors, I wasn't scared anymore. Mommy was kind of surprised that the noise scared me since other loud noises like the jets on base don't bother me, but hopefully next year I won't mind them at all. We hope all of you had a safe and happy 4th of July!

Beach Boy

I am quite the little beach boy now. Mom and Carissa take me to the beach about once a week if the weather is nice and I just love it! Usually I like walking in the water, but last time I played in the sand most of the time. I had fun rolling my pail all over the place, and I'm getting good at finding seashells too! Mommy got all excited because we saw dolphins again. She didn't get any good pictures, but these ones were really close to the beach and we had fun watching them.

On The Go

I am officially walking now. Once I turned 10 months old I started taking a few steps in between the furniture and from Mommy to Carissa, but now I can walk all over the place and get into all sorts of mischief! Mommy hasn't been able to get too many pictures of me walking (she's usually chasing after me making sure I don't bump into everything :), but here's a few pictures that her and Carissa took of me.

I Love You Daddy

Boy's Best Friend

I love hanging out with my puppies!

This picture has nothing to do with my puppies, but Mom still had to share it. We saw dolphins last week at the beach!

Fun In The Sun

I have been enjoying the nice summer weather and love playing outside. One of my new favorite places to play is at the beach!

I love the sand! I can't wait until I'm big enough for my own sandbox at home!

I also like to watch the waves come in.

I hope Mom and Carissa bring me to the beach a lot this summer!
