Hola, Mexico!

I had an awfully nice time in Puerto Vallarta...

Mom & Dad taught me to say, "Hola!"

...And boy did I put my new word into practice.

I shouted it to the little girls at the pool...

And every monring I practiced it on the vendors on the beach.

I wasn't too sure of that ocean water at first though...

But Dad showed me how cool it was to build stuff out of the wet sand.

I got pretty confident about the ocean after that and flexed my muscles to the sea.

I definitely got some nice relaxation time in.

Ole, Mexico!

It's my baby...Rorey!

Here's my baby sister or brother at 12 1/2 weeks:

I call it "be-be" when I point to mommy's tummy
(and my own)
but you can call it "Rorey."

"Punt-in!"

I'm not quite 16 months, but I've got quite the little vocabulary.

Wanna know my FAVORITE word???

PUMPKIN!!!

(Though I pronounce it, "puntin")...

So mom and dad took me to a place with a whole bunch of puntins.

There were so many puntins, I just didn't know where to begin!

It was AWESOME! Dad chased me as I ran, laughing, from puntin to puntin...

I got to inspect puntins of every kind...

green ones,

...and broken ones.

I just LOVE puntins!
