Yes, to the tire store and the bank with mum. Mum had to get the car fixed and go to the bank, and of course i went with her!
Mum wonders if i should just sit in the stroller, rather than wander around. I do tend to wander around and sometimes i even try to run out of the store! Mum still has problems keeping me near her. Yes, i still run off the driveway and to the sidewalk.
Actually the other day, i ran to the neighbors yard, while riding my bikeable!

yeah, i found my way behind the counter at the tire store…..as usual, everyone seems fine, when i am around!….and of course, mum is near, like the security camera……


me at the bank, and i got to play with the ….sponge houses! ….and of course, i am into lining them up……………… and they are cool to toss, too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The apartment i live in is being fixed and i enjoyed the day, hanging out with the workers. No one seemed to mind as long as i sorta did not get toooooooooooo in the way! However early in the morning, when the apartment was being painted, i went and touched the wall!

kid and wet paint…… i could not resist!

The nice landlady brought over lunch for all the workers,and told mum to give me some juice. She told me to take the bottle home and fill my cup…so that is what mum did, and i carried the bottle all the way home!

This is not my cup, cuz mum fillled my cup in the house…..but i wanted to have my juice with the workers! They did not mind i hung round them all day long.

They had burritos and i ate the chips!

I am playing with the strip that goes on the side of the garage to protect it. Hours earlier, i was playing with the sheet rock and the lumber, and the shovel!

this kind of play has to be really focused on….. need to get close to the….’job’
oh yes, and where was kaley corgi???…she was outside and near….
jake r doodle dandy kisses!!!!… there is always something happening here….the fun never stops!

I love juice and mum got me for the first time….juice box. I have not had one yet, but it looks good! She did not let me drink too much juice but she let me taste it a few weeks ago, and now i know to ask for it in the frig er ator…… She only lets me drink a little bit.
When she brought home the juice box, i played with the two boxes on the floor, i used them as if they were my trucks and cars!

now you see me….

..now you don’t!
jake r doodle dandy smiles!!!…i love juice!

Mum wanted to grow tomatoes this year, and got three small plants. They are not big plants yet but at least the plant did not die. Finally after a few weeks the tomato that came with the plant got red and ripe! I got to pick it!

This is the one that is begging to be picked!

the offering!

Woooow, one red tomato, kid jake size!




taking my bite!

comparing tomatoes…i plucked one from the other plant and it is not ripe! I do not know when to pick. I just thought it was fun to pick!…pluck!
jake r doodle dandy smiles!!!!!!!!!!!…i love all the cool things i am learning and being a part of…… mum is trying to grow squash….she wanted zucchini but the neighbor in the house next to our apartment, only had left over patty pans.

She is my neighbor and she is the friendly lady upstairs to where mum and i live. Her name is Viktoria and she is from Sweden! She was always saying hi to me, and i was shy at first. She was so very nice and one day, i decided to like her. I would go up to her apartment and hang out.
Yesterday, she told us she had to move. How sad. Mum and her are going to keep up being friends on Facebook, so that is good, and she is not moving far away. I still will miss her.






jake r doodle dandy smiles and kisses!…to my pal, vickroria…. we are still friends and she can still watch me grow up.

I got this when i was a two year old, i think…..i know i was young young!….. Uncle Mark and Aunt Posey in Washington Dc [papa brother is mark] gave it to me. I was scared of it long ago. Now this is one of my fave toys! I love to press the button and see it grrrrrr and move. I hug it too and laugh and laugh and laugh!


I used to give to mum to activate, i could not figure out how he ….got turned on! I know to press his lil paw!

He shuffles when he walks….sooooooooooooo funny!

I love to make it move towards me….it is soooo ‘living’
jake r doodle dandy kisses and lots of laughs!…. i like stickers now too. I used to go to a store, Trader Joes and get balloons [ i love balloons] but now they do not give balloons, they give stickers! I did not like stickers. I get them from the doctor office too. Stickers were no fun for me, when i was only 2 years old! What in the world are stickrs? Now i like them and last night i used all the ones mum saved for me, from TJ and stuck them all over her!
pss, still no new news on the toilet train thing…I am perfectly happy with the diaper…yesterday, i went in my diaper and told mum…..later in the day, i went and did not tell mum! She kept asking me ….”did you go poo?” and i said..”no” every single time! Finally she figured the smell was too icky and checked. She made me take a shower!

The other day was sooo HOT in california, and mum set up my pool. I am allowed to play in it, but only if the sun is not shining cuz she does not want me to get sun burned! In the late afternoon, about, 7 PM, i went out to sit in the pool. I normally just stand outside the pool and fill my containers, but it was sooooooooooooooo HOT, i went inside and sat in the water. Hey, i am very smart, okay! Sitting in the pool water, diaper and all, was very cooling!



if i water the pool water, will it grow?
jake r doodle dandy kisses!!!….it has not been hot hot for couple days, and in tx it is not 105, it is only about 90! 90 is toooo hot for mum and me, cuz we have no air conditioner!

Papa calls on skype now, so mum and me can see him……’live….and in living color.’ Mum and me love that very much. When i hear the skype bell ring, i immediately say……”papa”
Before papa came home for my 3rd birthday a week ago, i would say ….papa when the phone rings or the skype bell rings….i was learning who papa was………there is only one papa!
Yesterday, i talked more on the real phone when he called too! I told him i love him, i miss him and told him about my toys and said bye papa. Sometimes it is hard to understand my conversation, but papa gets the good stuff out of it!
papa is always silly on the skype….he is like a kid sometimes! It is good to be an adult kid, especially since papa has to work so hard with adults all day long!
i kiss the monitor to give papa a kiss, but when papa sees it, it is the top of my head, cuz i should be kissing the camera that is on top of the monitor!
jake r doodle dandy kisses and more kisses!!!…one is for papa!
by jake on August 25, 2010
Yes, and it is a big deal, cuz papa bought them for me. I only see him every two or so months, so anything about papa and me is worth sharing! He got me and mum new shoes, in California! He got himself new shoes in Texas!
Mum and me love our new shoes! Mum hopes i fit them for a long time!



They are outside shoes, but i wear them in the pool too…..til mum tells me to take them off! Mum thinks these are the coolest shoes…..i do too, and they are velcro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These pics are of me and my fave thing to do with water, fill my sprinkling can and water mums plants!
jake r doodle dandy kisses!!!!… i love outside…i love water…i love my shoes…but best of all, i love papa!
