THE ADVENTURES OF KALAN

First Snowfall

It snowed alot today. So much that Oma had to stay over. I like it when it snows alot.

Mama and dad took me outside to play on mama's snowboard and to make a snowman.

I am a Tiger - Hear me roar

Dad finally came home this week. I missed him. Mama and dad took me to a Christmas Party. I met Santa and had my face painted like a tiger. Grrrrr.

Hallowe'en Party 2007

I went to my second Hallowe'en party today at my friend Ethan's house. It was also to celebrate his 2nd birthday. Ethan is the first of us to turn 2. Ethan and his family also live close to park, lucky bum, and we got to go there where I had the opportunity to hone my death defying stunts. Mama says I'll be the death of her. Unfortunately, Kaitlyn and Lucas couldn't come; their mamas had to work.

Pumpkin Patch

I got to go to the pumpkin patch twice this year - the first time with my friends at daycare and the second with my friends from church. Oma got to go with me at daycare and mama was with me with my church friends. It was oh so fun. But mama was exasperated with me because I didn't want to pose nicely with the pumpkins. Now mama, how was I supposed to do that when I knew that you were going to take me for by boosters later in the afternoon!

Pee Pee on the Potty

I'm getting to be such a big boy now. Not only can I verbally string three to five word sentences (of course I could always do this in my thoughts as evidenced by my blogs), but I can also occasionally go pee pee on the potty. Of course sometimes I miss the potty entirely but mama seems to be so excited that I actually go that I don't get into trouble.

My First Camping Trip (Juan de Fuca Ntl Park)

Mama and dad took me and Hunter on our very first camping trip. I was sick most of the week with a high fever and stayed home with mama. Luckily, I got better the night before we left. We took a boat that dad called a ferry to some Island and drove for a very long time to a park. Mama didn't bring me any toys so of course I wanted to play on the road, help set up the tent, touch the cooking stove as well as the fire and eat pinecones and bugs.

Mama and dad took me to the beach. It was fun and there were a lot of pretty girls. It would have been more fun if mama would have let me run around and into the water. She was scared that I would fall on rocks or drown. C'mon now mama; I'm a big boy now.

Lily and Me

I forgot to post some pictures of me at Lily's birthday party in May. Lily is my friend. She is very pretty and sophisticated. She is an older woman. I wanted to kiss her at her party. Most of the time, girls want to kiss me. But not Lily; she's different. She finally relented, but I think we still need some more practice....

Asparagus - Yummy Yummy

Mama is glad that I'm eating my veggies again. Here i am with asparagus. I don't really like it but it is fun to see her face when she changes my diaper later....

Pool Fun

It was so hot outside that dad constructed a pool for me. Isn't he wonderful? I wasn't sure at first - the water was so cold and mama did not have the sense to dress me in proper pool attire. She eventually smartened up and boy did I have fun!!!

July Long Weekend at the Cabin

I love it at the cabin. Grandpa and grandma play with me, unlike mama and dad, first thing in the morning. Mama thinks I get up too early and gets up with me begrudgingly. She doesn't think I know but I do. Can I help it if I want to play?

I love Grandpa and grandma and wish I could be with them more often. Dad was so lucky. They let me do whatever I want. I got to sit on grandpa's chair, go fishing, play with all the kitchen utensils, drink scotch (mmmm Glenlivet), and I learn new words that mama calls "colourful". I don't understand mama sometimes. She does not even like dad's picture below. I think he looks like the meanest, roughest, toughest dude around.

Grandma is jealous - she thinks I love grandpa and even Uncle Irv more. But I just like to tease her.....(but they are more fun - they have tractors!!!).
