Birthday Fiesta!!!

Danni's cake to share...

Danni's cake to destroy...

My jungle cake!

 Having fun in the Dora Bouncer!

 It's fun being the birthday boy!!

Uncle Po and soon-to-be Auntie Kelly

 Great Aunt Dur, Hailey and Grayson-baby...

 Danni joined the party a little late... she had to get her beauty sleep!

 I LOVE fire!

I also love it when people sing to me!!

 Mommy and Daddy helped me blow the candles out!

Our familia (Danni's hiding in the background!)

 Danni didn't mess around... 

She loves buttercream just like her mommy!

She REALLY enjoyed her cake!

 Mommy and I had fun bouncing!

Danni liked bouncing too!!

Uncle Po was the BEST bouncer, though... he almost knocked the thing over. I loved every second!!  :)

Hmmmm...did Mommy and Daddy plan this?  My birthday and Danni's birthday are conveniently only 3 weeks apart....  was this a clever ploy to avoid paying for TWO birthday parties??  Hmmm....  It worked THIS year... mainly because my sister is too little to know what's going on... but next year they might not get so lucky! 

We celebrated my 3rd birthday and Danni's first brithday with a Dora & Diego party!  The taco man came and made delicious food for us (and saved Mommy and Daddy from cooking!)  We had a Dora bouncer, and the day was warm, so we got to splash around in the water park!!!  It was the perfect day!  I was surrounded by all of my friends and family... AND I didn't have to take a nap!!!  I love birthdays!

Happy Birthday, Zashi!!!

My favorite breakfast... a sprinkle donut washed down with chocolate milk!

Danni wanted a bite.  But it's not HER birthday!

Giving my sister birthday kisses...

A rare moment where we're both looking at the camera!

Since it was my birthday, I didn't get a time out for undoing all of the chains in line at Disneyland.

I rode the Matterhorn for the first time!  I LOVED it!

I wasn't scared at all and asked to go again ... so we did!

Still mesmerized by Small World!

Danni gave me a head massage during the ride...

I got Diego sunglasses for my birthday!!

I shared my animal crackers with Danni....

Who's that cool 3-year-old on the Up&Down?  Oh yeah... it's ME!!!

My parents let me pick any sunter I wanted from the sunter tree...

I chose the little 50 center.  (Just wait until next year!)

Another birthday hit was my paint book! 

I am serious about my art...

We celebrated with my friends over pizza and games.  A perfect end to the day!!

My birthday train cake!!  :)

Happy Birthday to ME!!!  I turned THREE on May 25th!!!  My parents planned a day full of all of my favorite things!!  For breakfast, I got my signature sprinkle donut and washed it down with some chocolate milk.  Then we headed to Disneyland for some fun!  I picked every ride ...  and demanded to go on a "big roller coaster"  (not the fake one in Toon Town!) ...  I am tall enough to ride the Matterhorn now, so my parents took me on it -- I LOVED it!!   After Disneyland, we had lunch at McDonald's.  I played with my new birthday stuff for a bit, then it was off to the pizza place for a party with my friends!!!  I was SO tired by then end of the day....  but I enjoyed every second of it.  Birthdays aren't so bad after all!  ;)

Yard Duty!

 Daddy's little helper!

Daddy did the bottom half and I did the top half.

Danni tried to get in on the action with her 'mower'

Hers didn't really mow the grass, though....

She got tired of doing yard work and decided to take a tractor ride instead...

I offered to push her down the driveway.  Mommy didn't seem to think this was a very generous offer!

Daddy needed some help mowing the lawn, so I was more than happy to dust off MY mower and lend a hand.  Of course, Danni didn't want to be left out, so she got her little walker toy out too.  (I didn't have the heart to tell her that she wasn't REALLY helping....)  We may have a future in landscape engineering!  :)

Idyllwild Vacay!

I liked our hike... except for the fact that dirt got in my shoes...

Danni's feet didn't get dirty...

Climbing around on the rocks and 'brogen down trees'

Taking a break on a big rock!

Danni thinks that Daddy's truck is like a giant play pen on wheels!

Danni's crib.  She didn't sleep much in it....  it was way too bouncy!

"Danny, don't look at me!  You need to go nite-nite!  Don't look at me Danni!"

Mommy and Daddy were thankful for the fireplace screen... Danni wasn't.

Danni found a little house to play in.  (Also known as a cupboard!)

She loved it in there!!

I had to try it too!!!

We have been getting cabin fever, and decided that it was time for a little break from the monotony of being at home... sooo we found a little cabin to rent up in Idyllwild and took a little mid-week vacation.  Danni and I had a great time!  The cabin had lots of new little nooks and crannies for us to explore (and ransack!)   We also got to go hiking in the forest.  I had fun climbing the rocks... and throwing sticks at my sister... I hope we get to go 'rough it' again soon!!! :)

Crazy in the Park!

Climbing through the tunnel...

This month's favorite toy is the beach ball....  (My parents should remember this when I am into expensive toys later... )

The wind made my beach ball "go crazeeee!"

I liked crashing my beach ball into the play equipment!

Danni liked climbing up the slide...

Little mischievous baby....

Danni did yoga in the grass...

Then she did her stretching...

We LOVE playing outside!!!  The spring weather is perfect for some running around, climbing, jumping, and FUN!  The last time we went to this park in Chino Hills, I wore the wrong shoes.  It has wood chips on the playground and they kept poking my feet and sneaking into my Crocs (this ended our trip a little prematurely last time!)  This time, I wore my sneakers and had a MUCH more enjoyable time!!!  :)
