Under Construction

As you may know, Mom and Dad are planning this nutty move across the country. (Contact them directly for details, I try to stay out of it!). Because of all this madness, I haven't been able to blog as much as I like. It's not all boxes and packing tape. We've been out and about trying to bid farewell to family and friends.

We went to The Birth Center one last time to say goodbye to all the babies from Mom and Dad's birth class. Look at those handsome fellas! (This is also where Samuel Justice was just born!)



And we had an evening in Collegeville saying goodbye to lots of Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and Grandmas. We're still waiting for the group picture so check back.



We also took in some culture at the Philly Art Museum. We had a picnic with Bruce and his parents and took some nice walks around the grounds. Bruce liked the knights and Armour gallery (which I mostly slept through) and I liked stealing Bruce's stroller and taking it for a spin around the Modern Art gallery. Dad let me go super fast in circles around everyone. I loved it and kicked my feet to make my ride go faster.







Bruce and Martin (and family) met us for lunch at Cereality on Thursday. Bruce is so lucky. He's a year and a half so he gets to eat pretty much what he wants...chocolate, malt balls, fruit loops...Martin and I had to eat apples and bananas. (Any of you blogger-savvy folks out there know how to rotate these darn pictures? They're right way up in iPhoto!)



Our Thursday night friends had a good-bye get together too: lots of delicious Mexican food and encouraging words. I love those guys! They always make me laugh. Again, photo forthcoming.

That's the skinny on the Philly move. Once life calms down a bit I'll have more time to update my blog. Until then, you can be pretty well assured that we're either packing, hanging out with pals, sleeping, or staring at a map of the U.S. and shaking our heads at the trip ahead. I can't wait!

Addendum

When we bid farewell to cousin Kimberly Friday, we thought we wouldn't see her again until Easter. Alas, the weather had other plans and she had to extend her stay in Philly. I tried to make it up to her by being extra cute.






Sorry about the snow Kimberly, but thanks for visiting!

Congratulations to the Littletons!

Samuel Justice Littleton is here. We are so happy! (More details here.)

Spring has sprung...for now

We have been having some lovely sunny weather in the Northeast. I'm just thrilled to be getting out more!



It came just in time for cousin Kimberly to visit, or is it second cousin once removed...? Anyway, here we are at Qdoba. Qdoba is a passable substitute for Chipotle. Hanging out there with Kimberly, however, is second to none.



We also went to the Italian Market together.



Here I am playing with my pal out by the Art Museum. He eats the grass, I eat his feet. No wonder we get along so well.





I sure am looking forward to Spring!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Monday was Dad's Birthday. He's approximately 48 times as old as I am! Can you imagine? Any-who, we celebrated in grand style. In addition to many nice cards and presents from far-flung relatives we had some yummy meals out.

Sunday we had lunch with my buddy Bruce and his parents. They had burritos, quesadillas, and Ben and Jerry's ice cream. I had, you guessed it, guacamole. Here's Bruce bragging about getting Dublin Mudslide.



Then Dad put me in a laundry basket, but that's another story.



Monday, we had dinner at The Bubble House with Martin and his parents. Mom had big plans for me to sample their sweet potato fries, alas they are cooked in peanut oil. Marty and I still had a pretty good time...until I had a minor melt down (no photographic evidence). It was very unlike me.



Things cleared up when we changed locations to Starbucks for some after dinner coffee.



Any time I get to hang out with Dad is a good time! Happy Birthday Pops!
