Children's Museum FUN!



 Zashiis a very good bus drifer!

"Danni, SIT DOWN in the car, Danni!"



The car ran out of gas about 25 times  Luckily, I know how to fill it up!
Danni was a very good cashier!


 She pressed all the buttons on the cash register...


 She found a cart just her size!


She 'walked' with her cart all over the store!
I helped her choose a few things...
Apparently, she was craving corn...
Trying to figure out how to get the "pretend water" out of the sink....
Still figuring it out....


Making Mommy happy that we don't own a piano....
My piano playing stance....
I sang a song called "Mommy."  It went like this: "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy... Mommmmmeeeeeee!!!"  
Then I did a stand-up routine.  It went like this: "Hi Mommy!"  "Hiiiii Mommy!"  I laughed.

After experimenting on stage, I think I liked the behind-the-scenes stuff better.  There are more buttons and switches.

Danni liked assaulting Baby Grant.


 Danni found a giant Rooster for Papa on the little Up&Down.

We LOVE visiting the La Habra Children's Museum  (but usually when we go, Mommy forgets her camera!)  We met Mommy's friend Lisa and her baby Grant for a morning of playtime!  Can you believe this place has been around since Mommy was a little girl?! 

Refrigerator Raider!

 Danni's jonesing for a snack!

She thinks raiding the refrigerator is COOL ...

Guess who's mobile and mischievous??  I opened the fridge and Danni climbed right in!!  We are gonna have SO much fun driving our parents crazy in the years to come!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!

Mommy and me....
 My mommy... and her mommy....


I love making Mommy laugh!
Too squirmy for a photo op with Mama Vee!


Danni LOVED her first taste of pineapple!
I loved my first taste of chocolate mousse!


 Mommy loves to see us being nice to each other...


Sweet babies...

I ALWAYS take good care of my Mommy... but I did an extra good job of it on Mother's Day!  Daddy, Danni, and I took Mommy and Mama Vee out to brunch at one of their favorite Mexican restaurants....  Mommy was impressed because we were VERY well behaved throughout the entire meal.  (This means that no one threw any food or knocked over any drinks!)  Yay!!

Water babies!

Danni's first bathing suit.  (Daddy and I won't let her wear a bikini!)

Danni couldn't wait to take a dip!

She's a water baby!! 


I loved floating in the big blue ring!


It was more fun in the bubbly water!!

Another sign that summer's coming??  POOL PARTIES!  Our friend Gage turned one and celebrated by having all of his friends over to swim!  Danni has never been in a swimming pool before!  She really liked splashing around ... and pulling Daddy's chest hairs out.  We had a great afternoon of swimming and hot tubbing....  everyone (including Mommy and Daddy) crashed hard when we got home!

Mini Ace of Cakes!


Mommy helped me a little bit with my aim....
I liked making frosting designs on my cake!


There were tons of colors to choose from!

Danni wanted to test out the blue one....

Sprinkle time!


I bet it's as yummy as it looks!!  Mmmm!!!

Move over, Duff ... three's a new cake boss in town!  :)  Our Albertson's had a kids' cake decorating event for Mother's Day.  I got to decorate my own little mini cake for Mama Vee!!   I squirted all kinds of frosting on it, topped it off with almost an entire tub of sprinkles, then added some pretty flower picks to it!  I'm ready for my own show!!  :)

Not such a great idea....


 I LOVE my sister!!


Danni didn't get the memo that she was supposed to SMILE...
Danni inspected the leaf... then threw it aside with disgust.  She is not a nature girl.
After many threats and bribes, Mommy finally got a semi-decent picture of me...
The only time Danni would smile is when she was practically eating the camera!
Danni wouldn't even smile for ME!!  :(

Mommy got the bright idea to take pictures of us for our birthday invitation....  It sounds a lot easier than it was.  Danni HATES nature... she hated being in the grass and wanted the wind to stop blowing.  I wanted to climb all the trees, dig in the dirt, and stick sticks in my sister's nose.  It was a long afternoon!  :)

Enjoying the sunshine!


Danni likes banging on the play equipment!  :)
 Crossing the 'troll bridge!'


Enjoying the slide with my sister...
Give it up for beautiful weather!!!
I taught Danni how to climb up the slide...
She still needs to learn how to get out of my way....
Playing with the 'big sliders' ... I don't think abacus is a toddler vocabulary word....
Guess who?!  Mommy had to do a double take...  that's Danni, but she SURE looks like me!  :)

Mmmmm.... germs....

Danni didn't really care for the swing....

We LOVE the park!!  Danni is starting to really enjoy the park with me!  She just needs to learn how to walk to fully appreciate it!  :)  We all love the gorgeous warm spring weather.... it's a crime to stay inside when it's SOOOO pretty out!!!
