Just Ducky

Sorry its taken me so long to post these pictures. Spring is here in Greensboro !!! Over the weekend, Daddy, Ashley, Uncle Mike and Uncle Aaron ran in the Greensboro BeerRun to raise money for the Special Olympics. I went to watch Daddy cross the finish line. This week, since it was so nice outside, I have been swinging on my swing in the front yard, playing outside and Ashley took me to the park to feed the ducks. I am crawling a lot, clapping my hands, going up the stairs, standing by myself and I keep hearing "Thomas, no, no, no - don't touch that !"

Here I am trying to get some dinner out of the pantry - Its lots of fun



If you look sideways, you can see me standing up by myself and dribbling my basketball



We found a turtle at the park

Trying to climb the turtle
I brought some bread for the ducks
I made a friend
He told his friend that I had some food to share



Daddy finished his race - yay !!!

Jovie's Birthday Bash

Wow what a weekend of celebrating with Jovie. This weekend we went to the Science Center for Jovie's birthday. It was really fun - dinosaurs, bugs, sea creatures and even a grocery store. Saturday night, Uncle TJ & Aunt Erica came over to hang out and have dinner. Sunday, we hung out and Daddy put up my swing in the front yard for me. Monday, was a regular work day - so Mommy worked as usual upstairs, Daddy went to work and I played with Ashley. Then tonight, we got to have Mexican ( Jovie's favorite ) to celebrate Jovan's birthday and give him his birthday presents. Erich and I slept during dinner but woke later to play and hang out. All this birthday stuff has been fun - I can't wait for June 1st !!! Jovie blowing out his birthday candles - the 4th one is for Good Luck
We gave Jovie a Mini Loader (Scooper) for his birthday

Midweek Celebrations

We did a lot of celebrating this week. It started off Tuesday night. We went to dinner with the McGregors because Aunt Julie finished her 3rd test for her medical residency. It was lots of fun. Then Wednesday night, we went to the Bopps for dinner to celebrate Aunt Melanie defending her dissertation. I got to hang out with Jovie, Erich was already asleep. Then tonight, we had Beef & Cabbage for St Patricks Day since we can't eat meat tomorrow ( Lent ). Daddy even made green beer. For dessert, the grown ups had mint chocolate chip and pistachio ice cream. The celebrating continues this weekend. Its Jovie's 3rd Birthday Party on Saturday - Yippee !!!!

Click Below and you can see/hear Jovie singing me a song - I was crying and this song sure cheered me up. The video is fuzzy but you can hear the next American Idol.



Click below and see Ashley making me laugh - I love water !!! Again, I'm not sure why the video is fuzzy but you can hear me laughing.

I can still dunk

Well its been a busy week. It got warmer and warmer each day, so I was outside a lot by the end of the week. Ashley and I had lots of fun this week. I also had to go to my 9 month check up this week. I'm still a little peanut - I'm only 15 lbs 12 oz but it doesn't stop me from dunking the ball. Watch me below. This weekend, mommy and daddy took me to Richmond. My Grandpa and Grandma played with me while my parents went to the Painters' house. Aunt Lori threw Carey and Matt an engagement party. Then on Sunday, my Ong Ngoai and Ba Ngoai met us in Richmond for breakfast. All my grandparents love me very much. I also got to go see Aunt Lori and met her parents and family at their house. I slept all the way from Richmond to 10 mins before we got to our house, then I sat in my new stroller while Daddy ran. It was a busy weekend but I had lots of fun.
