Me and the Bichon Named Munchkin



This is my doggy. Her name is Munchkin and she is a Bichon Frise. She is very curious about me. She looks like a big snowball. Sometimes she gives me licks and her tongue is wet and cold. I pet her with my parents help and daddy even helps me give her treats sometimes. She really likes to snuggle up with me, mommy and daddy as you can see.
She has a pillow and blanket right by my crib and she lets my parents know when I need a diaper change. We are going to be the best of friends when I get bigger and can chase her around...Yee Haw!!!

Valentine's Day with Great Grandma Joanie















After an exciting weekend meeting my Papa and Auntie Jax I learned that today is Valentine's Day! Mommy explained to me that you share Valentine's Day with a special person you love. I got many Valentine's Day cards and my Grandma and GG suprised me with two cute 'Baby's First Valentine's Day' oufits. They couldn't pick between the two so they purchased both outfits. It was exciting.
As a special treat I got to spend the night with my GG and be her special Valentine. She sent me such a nice card asking if I would be her Valentine that I ask my parents if I could spend the day and night with her. We had a great time. I wore my little outfit and we just had a smashing good time!
I really like Valentine's Day!!! Sadly nobody took a picture of me so my mommy dressed me up a little while later and snapped these photos. I also included a photo of my GG, but it is with me about 2 weeks before Valentine's Day!!!

Papa Ken and Auntie Jax Come for a Visit



I'm the luckiest little boy because most of my family lives right in Reno or Carson City except for my Papa who lives in Palm Springs, CA and Aunt who lives in Hunington Beach, CA. They came for a visit February 9-12. It was really fun to see my Papa, Grandma Karen, Cousin Bailey and Aunt Jax. On Saturday night we ate at the Silver Legacy buffet and then we all went over to the Midway at Circus Circus. Of course, I slept through the whole thing, but next morning I had new stuffed animals that my mommy, auntie, and Bailey had won for me. It was a lot of fun.
I was really a fussy Gus on Saturday afternoon and the only person that could calm me down was my Papa. I had a great time and I hope they come back really soon but if they don't my daddy and mommy are taking me on my first road trip to see Papa and Co. in March!!!

Weekend at Grandma's


I went for a visit to my Grandma's house on January 27-29! I had the best time with my Grandma, Great Grandma Joanie, Grandpa Roger and Bonnie the dog...
They spoiled me rotten with new toys, books and clothes. I met a lot of their friends during the weekend. I love seeing new faces.
My Nana gave me a tubby in the sink with a big blue towel so I wouldn't slip. It was fun doing so many new things.
I even got to see my first golf course and country club, my Grandpa Roger loves to play golf.
My Grandma's birthday was on that Saturday and I got to see everyone eat cake, Yummy!!
I was so excited that I couldn't even take a nap on Saturday so believe you me when I say I was a tired little man that night!
I'm going for another visit in February. I know we will have so much fun...

I Am Loved

This is a blanket that one of my Daddy's co-workers hand-made for me. Katie Rusche made me the most beautiful quilt with little mice in action on it. It has a 'postage stamp' on the back that has all the stats of my arrival.
It is just an example of all the gifts and wonderful things that I have been so blessed with. It is great to be so loved! I'm very, very thankful for that...

Splish, Splash...I Was Taking a Bath


This is me after having a tubby! My dad wrapped me in a huge duckie towel so I would be all nice and warm. We sat down for just a moment and my mom snapped this photo of us.
