Happy Easter!

Theo loves the Easter Bunny. He first saw him at the mall with Kathleen. Then we went back to the mall a few days later, and he wanted to see if he was still there. He actually wanted to sit on his lap, waited patiently to do so, and thought it was fantastic. He told me he was not going to smile, however, and pretty much stuck to his word.

Theo got to play under the big lights tonight at Qwest Field where the Seahawks and Sounders play (MSFT had an internal soccer tournament). He was far more interested in golf cart than the soccer balls of course. Yes, the blue fleece is still obligatory.

The Blue Fleece

Scroll down a bit. Notice anything? Like a whole lot of that blue fleece jacket? Theo will not wear anything else, and will not take it off anywhere we go, until we are back at home. He will only wear a sweater if we assure him it will be covered immediately by The Blue Fleece. Those tubing shots? The Blue Fleece is under there. Expect to see more of it, as he's still got plenty of room to grow in there. I am sure we'll see it all summer long, with his swimming suit at the wading pool.

February in Seattle?

You wouldn't know it.

And clearly having the time of his life:



We got one run in before a foot/boot problem put an end to it. He didn't hate the ride but wasn't thrilled about it either. He much preferred looking at the tractors, snow plows, and buses in the parking lot and was definitely more at home with a PB & J in a high chair at the Issaqua Brew House. Great outing though and he says he wants to do it again so we will try again.

Theo biking!

After many months of thiking and talking about his new bike, he finally decided it was time to ride it. He seemed to love it.
