Chill'n at the Park

It was starting to feel like fall, well for a few days anyway. It was great!! We met up with Otto's buddy Finn and the park to enjoy the cool Saturday. We can't wait for more crisp cool days.

9.1.07 first trip to the zoo

My first trip to the zoo was marked by another momentous occasion, we were finally able to turn my car seat around, YEAH!!! I can see, there is so much to see facing forward. I had fun seeing the elephants and deer at the zoo. I got tired out a little more quickly than mom and dad expected so I just took a little snooze while they made the long trek back to the car.

More of August 2007

This is the first time since 2000 mommy has not been on the Art Unleashed committee for the Humane Society. Daddy won a piece of the live auction for her to remember her 6 years spent on the great event. This was the 10th Anniversary of the event so a big milestone year. I LOVE IT!!!! Kitties and Doggies are two of my favorite words. I like to say meow too cause that is what kitties say. I also like to say: more, no, ball, uh-oh (right before I knock something over), squirrel, shoes and all gone.

Playing with my great grandma Helen Cookus and below with mommy and Great grandma before we head off to the pool! It was really a big water park, it will be lots of fun when I'm older!

Look how cute I am! People always stop mommy and daddy because they are amazed I walk so well. Then they let people know I'm 19 months and they have to stop and think again. "He is so small" Mommy and Daddy say small but mighty! And fast too I can not only walk but I often prefer to run these days!
We were in Nebrasksa because mom's cousin Jill Cookus got married. It was fun my first wedding. I especially liked all the room to run and the music at the reception. There were lots of my second cousins there to play with which was fun.

Hey there!

Just hanging out back with my lawn mover while mom and dad wash the dogs!
On our way to my buddy Izzy's first birthday, she had really fun balloons!
Mom and Grandma watched my buddy Finn and I while Finn's daycare was closed for two days. It was fun since we used to go to day care together it was like old times!
Now there has to be more ranch in here somewhere......
here is is on my head........more please

Hello all just a few fun images from this summer. My mom's family reunion was in Branson this summer. It was nice to see everyone. It was a lot of fun to see my cousin Tori and her family. They live in Houston so we don't get to see them as often as we would like. She has two little boys Tyler and Ryan. Ryan is seven days younger than Otto. It was fun watching them interact.
