I'm Gonna Get You

My new crawling skills have enabled me to do all kinds of things. One of which is chase after Winston. As you can tell, he isn't the biggest fan of the game.
But I think its hilarious!

Bath Time

Big Baby Slimes bath time. I've gotten super dangerous in the bath since I started crawling and pulling up on things. Mom and Dad recently took the baby bath away all together because I kept flipping it over. But I love bath time, especially with my big brother.

Sure I've got baby boobs....but look at those eye lashes:)

Brothers Gotta Hug

Aren't we handsome?

I'm helping Slimes make a funny face.

Uh, Mom....he's getting heavy.

Barton School Trick or Treat

As if Trunk or Treat and trick or treating weren't enough, we had a candy parade at school. It was fun to see everyone in their costumes. Especially Mrs. Schmidt, who was a mad scientist with orange hair!

We went trick or treating to different stations around the grass.

We even got to do a couple laps! It was a fun day....especially since it ended with a bag full of candy:)

A Smurfy Halloween

For Halloween this year we were a smurf family! Mom convinced me (and somehow, Dad) to dress up like smurfs. I was jokey smurf (hence the present with the exploding wick coming out), Dad was Papa smurf, Mom was smurfett, and Slimes was baby smurf (I don't think there is a slimy smurf).
This is trunk or treat at the church.

Mom dyed all of our blue stuff and made the hats. I thought we looked pretty smurfy!
We were lucky to get invited to Romi's Aunt Annette's house again to trick or treat. It is so much fun to be with my friends and trick or treat in her neighborhood.

Boy smurfs rule!

Here is Smurfett and baby smurf. Mom decided that she is better off with brown hair:)

Baby smurf didn't last very long trick or treating. He did have a smurfy nap in his stroller though while we ran the neighborhood.

Romi didn't want to take a picture with me (she was Belle from Beauty and the Beast), so Mom caught what she could. We are checking out our candy stash!

Dylan (dressed as Josephine) and I are showing off our spoils. Devyn was Marie Antoinette, she filled her bucket up early and headed back to the house.

Smurfs have tails, you say? Oh yes they do! These costumes were authentic:) It was a great Halloween season....and I've already started to plan my costume for next year. Get started on that Mummy costume Mom!

Pumpkin Patch

For my first school field trip at Barton House Playschool, we went to a pumpkin patch! It was fun to be there with my class and Mrs. Schmidt....and also my Mom and Big Baby Slimes.

They had a petting zoo there with a mini horse, llamas, and goats. Mom said the animals looked diseased but they seemed fine to me. There was also a hay bale maze we went through a couple times. It was hard for me because I couldn't see over the top, but the bales came up to Mom's waist so she helped me through.

This is me in an old wooden train. Mom tried to get my picture from the window side but there were lots of kids and I couldn't jockey for position.

The playground was a little sparse. It consisted of this metal slide, 2 truck tires, and some see saws that we weren't allowed to play on. Needless to say the line for the slide was pretty long. That's my teacher, Mrs. Schmidt, standing on the side.

Here is the patch where we got to pick our OWN pumpkins! It was a hard search to find one that wasn't rotted or busted open. (nice finger Mom)

Got One!

Here we are on the hayride. It was pretty sweet to ride on the giant tractor all around the patch.

After our tour of the patch we all sat down to have a snack. I was glad it was a shady spot because it was pretty hot for October!
Probably the best part of the day was running around afterward with my friends. It was a good day.

Snuggle Time

I LOVE the beds at the San Diego hotel. They are like fluffy clouds. While Mom and Dad were getting ready for church, Big Baby Slimes and I had a little cuddle time. With flash lights of course:)

I even let Slimes hold my blue bear that I sleep with.

The bed was so comfy that slimes drifted right off to sleep next to me....never letting go of his flashlight.

Night night Slimes.

Sleep well on your fluffy cloud.

Natural History Museum

On a recent stay at the San Diego hotel, we decided to go to Balboa Park and visit the natural history museum. We had been to the Science museum across the way the year before, so we thought we would try a new one.
It was really cool! They had lots of dinosaur skeletons and a 3D movie about dinosaurs.

I tried to climb up on this big manatee for a ride, but mom said no.

Ahhhhhhhhh, SHARK!

They had the coolest exhibit about the North Pole and Antarctica. There was a big section about penguins. They had a bunch of penguin suits you could put on and go down this ice slide like you were a penguin!

SPLASH!

Downstairs there was a whole floor of jewels and gems. I think mom was too busy picking out her Christmas present to take any pictures. They were really beautiful.
Museums are so fun!

...Cause Mom just cleaned the table

We have a glass kitchen table. It requires windexing after pretty much every meal. I thought I'd spare Mom the chore of cleaning the table, again, and just eat my lunch on the floor. Pretty thoughtful of me...right?!

Poor Winston

Poor Pup gets so tortured.

All for our own entertainment:)

Slimey Jumper

Big Baby Slimes here. I've got to get my random posts in here so when I get older I don't ask Mom why there are a million pictures of Max and none of me!
Mom busted out the jumper a month or so ago and I LOVE it! She says I am a lot crazier in it than my brother was. But I'm crazier in lots of ways:)

How can you resist a face like this?

Park Days

Since the weather has cooled off, we have been going to the park just about every week. I LOVE it! I take my scooter and ride around all the paths and occasionally take a break for the swings.

Sometimes we get Subway on the way to the park (my personal preference) and sometimes we pack our lunch and just get a treat from 7-11.

For a while Baby Slimes just hung out in his car seat, but now he LOVES going on the swings and crawling around the blanket. He isn't so hot on the grass yet but Mom likes that it keeps him on the Blanket:) Its hours of fun and enjoyment for everyone!

Happy 4th Birthday

Another year has come and gone and it was time again for my birthday extraveganza!

Of course a birthday wouldn't be complete without a trip to Disneyland. Paga and Lindsay met us there in the morning and Dad and Aunt Jen, Uncle Jeff, Brooke, Kate, Buzz, Curran and Luke met us in the evening. Can you say PARTAY! I decided to use some of my birthday money to buy a new set of mouse ears.

It was obviously a long fun filled day for both me and big baby slimes.

I have been telling people for at least 6 months that I was going to have my birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. Mom thinks the one by us is kinda ghetto, so we checked out John's Incredible Pizza. I loved it at first sight...after all, they had rides and a bowling alley. I got to invite a few friends to celebrate there.

Dylan and Devyn came.

And of course Axel, Marie and Coco. Romi and RT also got to come.

It was so fun! We had all the pizza we could eat and even slurpees! Mom made my cake with my one request....a #4 candle. Then we played limbo and

hot potato. The worker also made us all crazy balloon animals and balloon hats! We were itching to go play games and ride the rides. They let us loose with our very own credit cards and we went to town! It was a blast.

Hey Big Baby Slimes, lets come here for your birthday!

It was an awesome celebration from beginning to end. I've already started planning my 5th birthday party, it's right around the corner:)
