Fall

It has been in the 60s and 70s and it is now mid November in DC. I went to the park without a hat on!

IM A WALKIN'

Yep, that's right. I am walking on my own two feet.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Rockin & Rompin

This doesn't give this party justice. This event was the Rock N Romp Halloween party. Rock N Romp is a show for kids and parents. They organize bands to play while kids get to run around with instrument, sing, dance, climb on stage, just hang while their parents drink or chill out in a super crazy kid-filled environment. There were so many kids there. I am sorry that these photos don't show any of the bands and practically no kids. Alva between bands wanted to become a rock star.

TACO CHULO

Jimmy took us out to eat at his place Taco Chulo. This is one of the owners, Greta loving me and giving me the "Alva" tour. They let play with everything, turn tables, pimped out toy cars, lights, clocks, whatever I put my eyes on. It was fun. If you are in Williamsburg and looking for some yummy eats go to TACO CHULO. You might just run into me.

Hanging in Brooklyn, NY

Mama and I went to Brooklyn for a week with Naomi to stay with Jimmy. It was great. We went to this diner for kids. It was set up so that the kids could play in the diner while the adults can chill have a beer or coffee and order "wee one's plate" It was fun for the time. In their patio it was basically a playground, sandbox, lots of toy vehicles to drive, and some tables to eat and drink at.

Hello Everyone

hello all. I am sorry that i have not updated you for a while. i am sick right now. we went out to a restaurant and when mommy got me out of bed there was vomit all over my crib. sorry if that grosses you out but this is an update on me. so, i haven't eaten solids since friday night. we are all hoping that i am feeling better tomorrow. i think i have food poisoning.

outside of that i cut one of my molars on the bottom right side. the bottom left is about to cut soon. i am saying and signing a lot. i know the signs for food, more, bottle, all done. i can say a lot of words. i can point out things like eyes, ears, mouth, teeth, nose. i can wave really well. my new favorite word for this weekend is bottle. i have been signing food a lot the past couple of days and they won't give me any because i throw it all up.

oh yeah, i am walking now!

i will post my halloween photos soon. hope everyone is well. if you haven't seen me in a while check back sooner.

oct 9th my actual birthday

daddy's shoes

my first birthday party

mona & me

hello everyone

i am taking a plane ride tomorrow morning. my first one! i have been very excited about putting puzzles together of some sort. i really enjoy putting tops onto things. i have also gotten pretty good at putting rings onto the ring stand.

i have eight teeth and i think i am going to cut some more soon. met a neighbor across the street who is a few weeks older than me. his name is adam. he walks and is sort of a bully, or at least he was today. maybe i was just shy. i am okay at sharing as long as i am giving it to you and you aren't taking it away from me. i have been visiting lots of new parks and checking out the scene in dc. i get a lot of attention here from strangers.

i will let you know how indianapolis goes this weekend. there are photos from daddy's birthday in july that i have not put on my site yet. i will have to go back and do that. hope you are all doing well.
i will keep you updated
