Jib Jab Mania

My latest obsession is watching myself and Maverick in Jib Jab videos.  Below are some links to my favorites:

Talley and Maverick - Jazzercise (There was no doctoring to Maverick's hair in this one.)

Talley - Chiquita Banana

Kite Fest

Last weekend, Mommy took Maverick and me to a cute event called Kite Fest at San Rafael Regional Park here in Reno.  It's basically lots of people and lots of kites in a pretty park.  It was my first time flying a kite and I did pretty well once Mommy figured out how to assemble it properly.  I did get quite tangled up in the string, but that was part of the fun of it.  Here are some pics:

Tummy Time Together

One of the things we like to do together now is Tummy Time.  We both squeeze in on the play mat and just hang out while Mommy takes photos.  Please check out said photos below:

A Serious Conversation

I'm not a baby of many words; however, when I have something to say, I say it.

P.S.  Warning: it's a long video.

These days I can roll over with relative ease.  Tummy to back and back to tummy.  I've got it down.

Amen!

Mommy prays the Lord's Prayer with me every night before I go to sleep.  Although I'm usually squirming around, playing with her hair, and jabbering on during this time, I've somehow managed to memorize it!

Love you!

Caution - Cute Overload!

I just love kissing Baby Brother - he has the softest, doughiest cheeks ever!

Mother's Day 2011

To celebrate Mother's Day this year, Daddy prepared a special brunch at our house.  Mommy and Grandma O were the guests of honor.  Grandpa O and Uncle Colin also came to celebrate.  The brunch was delicious (can't go wrong with waffles, bacon, and eggs) and the mamas were happy.

Hope all the other wonderful mommies and grandmommies we love had a great Mother's Day too!

Hangin' With My Dogs

I'm starting to take notice of the four-legged creatures Talley calls friends.  I've learned these hairy housemates are friendly and soft.  I like looking at them and touching them and it intrigues me that they want so badly to lick me.  I'm looking forward to chasing them one day.

Vegas Baby!

The last weekend of April, we took a family roadtrip to Vegas for Daddy's annual hockey tournament that he plays with some of his old Monkey Time teammates from California.  The drive up seemed endless with lots of screaming baby action.  It was worth it when we finally got there, though, because we ended up having a lot of fun.  We were immediately greeted with big hugs and kisses from Grandma Linda and Andy Pop who stayed at the same hotel in an adjacent room.  We had a lot of fun playing with them throughout the trip and watching Daddy play hockey.  Daddy played great and his team ended up with one loss, one win, and one tie.  Other highlights included watching the zamboni driver, riding the monorail, visiting the lions at MGM Grand, swimming in the hotel pool, and shopping.  Here are some pics from our trip:

Acknowledgements:  Thank you Grandma Linda & Andy Pop for playing with us and taking care of us while Mommy and Daddy went out at night!  Thank you Granmda and Grandpa O for letting us take your car!  It was way more spacious and comfy than our car and the built in DVD player was great!
