Chutes and Ladders

I haven't posted in a while, and once again the fans are getting restless, but not much has been going on in my life. I've been taking it easy the past month enjoying the buddings of spring and thanks to Mommy's keen eye, have been enjoying some new playgrounds.

I have become quite the master of the schoolyard. Mommy and Daddy have taken me most every nice weekend to a playground nearby that is just my size. I love climbing up the steps to the slides and even going down headfirst on the tunnel slides. Mommy has taken me on a few weekday trips to the nearby church playground but it's a bit harder for me to navigate. We've been enjoying the sunny warm weather and are looking forward to summer.

I'm finally eating lunch at school and am starting to eat big-boy food at home. I know Mommy and Daddy are so relieved that I am giving up the all oatmeal and yogurt diet. They are still my favorite foods but I'm adding some protein to the mix now. I even stole some sweet potato fries off Daddy's plate last weekend.

My vocabulary is enhancing at a rapid rate. I am very good at repeating words and phrases now. My favorite word and color would have to be "yellow" but "caco" (or as you say, Cisco) is probably a close second. My favorite phrase is "peas cookie" and boy do adults melt like putty in my hands when I say it.

Daddy celebrated his birthday a few weeks ago, Mommy and Daddy were able to enjoy a few nice dinners out and also Daddy got his 2 favorite meals, lasagna and bun bo. He appreciated all the nice birthday wishes and cards he received.

A few more weeks and it will be Spring Break for Mommy and I, we're looking forward to the time off but unfortunately I have to undergo another hypospadia surgery so I'll be taking a few days off from the playground.
