Year 1, Week 19

We walked to the playground this week. Dad helped me down the stairs.



When we got to the playground I found a straw and a stick to play with. Dirty used straws are so awesome. I can't figure out why Mom took it away from me.



To make me feel better about the straw we went on the slide. Someone was super rude and left some wood chips on the platform. Look at them!



Then I went down the slide!



I also went on the swing. That was pretty awesome.




Then it was back to the slide. Except this time I wanted to go on the BIG slide.



Whoa. The big slide is really high up.



The big slide goes faster than the little one.



Whoa there big slide.



Okay, the big slide is pretty fun.



I also shook the chains when Dad stood on them.



I also played with the wood chips. They were pretty awesome.




The park is totally awesome.



Also this week, I sat on the couch. It was hilarious.



Next week we'll have some pictures of our visit to the pumpkin patch! Here is a preview. I love my pumpkin.

Year 1, Week 18

This week Mom and Dad took me out to Julian to pick some apples. We stopped to get bagels for breakfast, and the bagel place was out of regular milk so I got to have chocolate milk for the first time.



I drank that whole bottle. Mom and Dad have been holding out on me.

The place we went to was called Calico Ranch Orchard. Mom found it on the internet, and was surprised when she realized that it was the same place Dad took her when she first moved out to San Diego four years ago.



Oh hey, look, there's a lot of apples on the ground there.



LOOK! An apple RIGHT THERE.



We're supposed to be apple picking up, right?





Oh, apple PICKING. Not apple picking up. I see.





These two? These are mine. You probably don't want them anyway, I licked them.



APPLES!



Here's me and Mom with all our loot. I don't know why we're sitting on bales of hay, it's not like they need hay to feed the apples.



After apple picking we went to something called Oktoberfest in Julian. I don't know what that means, and Dad thinks maybe they don't know what it meant either, since they didn't have any German beer.



They had some good polka music though, so I danced and made some new friends.



I also raised the roof.



When we were walking back to the car Mom saw some sign about keeping control of your dogs because of the chickens. Then we had to go find the chickens!



I totally found that chicken. See, it's right there.



Here's a better look at the chickens. They were kind of funky.

-The Dodgers split the first two games with the Phillies



-I took this awesome picture of Dad doing the dishes
