When Cats Attack

i was just trying to listen to the purr when this happened...

Christmas Day - 2011

 whoa - here we go.  time to open presents!

yeah, 70+ degrees out here in So Cal.  just running around the backyard trying to stay cool!

Santa Pics 2011

 checking my reflection.

looks sort of spokes modelish.  not sure daddy is happy at this moment.

A TSR Thanksgiving

 the breathtaking Central Coast.

 running around outside.

 Grandpa helping me up the hill.  the grass is really thick and wet.  tough for toddlers to walk in.

 yep - electrified fence.

here are my cousins.  Ivy and Charlotte. 

Second Trip To Italy

 here i am with Francesco and Rebecca.  i am the small one on the right.

 feeling good in italy.  eating and drinking well.  bothered slightly by incoming teeth.

 whoa!  back in Firenze...  looking for some good luck!

 Tuscan rooftops.  Boboli Gardens in the backgrounds.

 learning to eat with a fork.  still a work in progress.

running around at the local Milano park.  geometric.

Bike Time

 well here we are working on bikes in the garage.  i noticed that daddy did a little clean and bright on his Mamasita 29'er.  maybe i will just double check those tire pressures while he isn't looking...

speed shot.  check out how fast i can run!  it is all a blur now.

Walk To Dive

this is what we do to end of our swimming lesson.  walk across the choo choo train mat and then jump in!

Diving Rings

just one of the little tricks Daddy has me doing!

Walking and a cat take down!

Swimmy Swimmerson

 check me out.  way under.  eyes open.  hands out.  looking good!

 ahhhh.  breath of fresh air.

 now time for a little sckrunch face!

and so happy.  let's give a little clap.   yeahhhhhhhhh!

TSR - 4th of July

 another gorgeous day on The Sea Ranch

 going under with Grandma at the Moonraker Pool!

 happy hatting at the beach with Grandpa.

out at the tide pools with dad.  no tsunami warning this time!!!

Duck Duck Goo

 enjoying a swing.  maybe i should talk my parents into getting one of these for the house...

 check this out...  i thought this was a Kingfisher.  it ends up that this is actually a Night Heron.  enjoying a tasty frog!

 here i am with my buddy Ben.  crawling around in the grass and enjoying the shade.

 chasing a male mallard who came over to check us out.

 little baby mallard ducklings with mom watching closely.

 swimming turtles.

and here is that canadian snow goose. 

Dexter - Season 6 Episode 1!!!

 Dexter - we just read that Edward James Olmos could be the new bad guy?  Mos Def is also in this season but we did not see him today.  also, Colin Hanks - Tom Hank's son is going to be a character too.  maybe he will be the bad guy?

 
here i am in the director's chair.  thanks to Laura for keeping me safe up there.

 this is me and Anslyee ruining our cloths crawling around on the sidewalk.

 oh, did not think anyone would see me trying to snatch Colin's bottle ;-)

 Dexter and Deb talking with the director.  Dexter is wearing the peach shirt and Deb is standing next to him with the folder shielding herself from the sun.

 some production equipment.  Deb is at the far right - she still has the folder blocking the sun.

 here i am sitting with some of the crew members.  these nice folks worked with lighting.  now before anyone goes crazy about me chewing on light bulbs - dad checked them out...  made in Japan, so they are safe.  i'll take a little Japanese radiation over Chinese melamine any day.

just in case you did not believe me...  Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan and his former wife Jennifer Carpenter as Debra Morgan.  way cool.

Laguna Beach Afternoon

 just a beautiful day down here in Laguna.  who knew a Weds afternoon could be this nice.

 cruising in the Bob.  might have even been too hot for pants! 

 chicks on the beach.   ccchhhhhh.  who cares about that!

 dad and his buddy Jeremy were excited about this place.  they had these drinks with salt around the edge.  something about "rocks" and "salt"???  i had some guacamole, but it had some lemon in it.  sour!

 getting sleepy.  catching some surfing out of the corner of my eye.

nutty.  my dad said he had never seen people surfing this spot.  they were jumping off a rock into the waves.  pretty wild stuff.
