A Very Exciting Breakfast

When was the last time you had this much fun just sitting at breakfast? We obviously live in a very exciting place...

As mom-mom was getting this post ready, I was singing a little song for her...over and over. For some reason, she didn't understand what I was singing so I had to do it a few times. See how long it takes you to get it...

Well, that's it. I am feeling very entertaining today and I have not shut my mouth since the second my eyes popped open this morning. I think we might need to go to the park today.

Love, J

What WAS That?

(Nudity alert!)

Mom-mom saw something streaking through the house this morning. She grabbed her camera and tried to at least catch it on film. Here's a blurry shot that she was able to get...

She did a few laps around the house trying to corner this creature. It is FAST!

Then the creature finally got distracted, and mom-mom realized it was just ME!!! Let's get some dogs in here to add to the noise and chaos!

Any day that starts out with a naked child and two huge dogs running through the house is bound to be exhausting. Here we go.

Love, J

And here's a picture of me from Friday...daddy and I went down to Lowes to get some stuff, and I came home dressed like this!
Daddy said I "charmed" the lady at the checkout counter, so she gave me my very own work apron. It's fun getting free stuff just 'cause you're cute!

Lazy Day

Daddy is home with us today, so we are gonna have a "boys only" day. We started out by watching one of my favorite videos, all about trucks and tractors. Daddy likes it, too!

Here's a picture mom-mom took before she went into her office to work for a little while.


We might stay in our pajamas all day!

Hope you have a great weekend!

Love, J

Smiley Day

Nothing new to report today - I just wanted to share a smile!



Have a great day, and remember to take a minute to smile.

Love, J

We're Pretty Sad...

...but oh so thankful for a wonderful visit with Gramma Jojo! I am still not totally convinced that she isn't here.

Monday was a very special day. It was Gramma Jojo's birthday. I LOVE to sing "Happy Birthday" and I LOVE cupcakes. It was a fun day for me. I was having such a good time while we were eating our cupcakes that everything was funny. Check me out. Daddy is just opening up the dictionary and reading words...

(This is somehow funnier if you actually listen to the way daddy is pronouncing some of the words. Wow.)

Well, I'm going to go look for Gramma Jojo one more time and then I'll get ready to go to swimming. I hope you have a great day!

Love, J

Got One!

Did you check your yard this morning? It's St. Patrick's Day, and sometimes there are leprechauns sneaking about....

We went out this morning, and we saw one!



He smelled of waffles and apple juice. We searched his pants...we did NOT find gold.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Love, J

Well, soooooooooo-REEE!

Since mom-mom has now received hate mail from several of our loyal readers, I insisted that she post something today.

We have been quite busy with Gramma Jojo. Here are some highlights:


A pony ride! I loved it when we got to GO FAST!

Mom-mom and Gramma Jojo planting flowers in the garden.

Kissin' my Gramma.

I got a new slide (thanks to the neighbors down the street who were giving it away for FREE!)

Yesterday we went to Balboa Park and rode the train! Daddy came, too. See him just behind me and Gramma?

And then, in honor or Grampa Grampa Mike's birthday, I rode a butterfly!!! Daddy thought I was gonna be scared and try to jump out, but I had a great time.

(I might look a little sad in this picture, but it's only because the ride was over.)

I'm not sure what we will do today, but it's sure to be an adventure. Gramma Jojo is beginning to understand what Uncle Dan and Uncle Brian meant when they told her I NEVER stop talking.

Have a great day!!!

Love, J

Jojo's Coming!!!

See ya soon, Jojo!

Love, J

We are SO Lucky...

...to have such wonderful family and friends! Thank you all for the excitement and good wishes.

Today me and mom-mom are going to swim group, so we don't have much time to post here today. But, here's a fun thing we can share! A few weeks ago, Grampa Mike asked me and mom-mom to put together an ad for him for a magazine. Since I am awesome, we decided we would need to use MY picture in the ad.
Good thing I have a cute cousin Carleigh and that we will have another baby around, too. Imagine if Grampa Mike had to pay his talent!

That's all for now. Hope you all have a great day!

Love, J

Here Goes

Ok, so here's my big announcement! We're going to have.............

WAFFLES! Oh, yeah, and I'm gonna be a big brother. But mostly I'm excited about waffles.

Since Gramma Jojo likes to spread exciting news, it's possible that everyone in the entire world has heard this already (she HAS known for more than 12 hours, after all). Mom-mom is still deciding how she feels about this. She said she thinks it's good. Then daddy said he was gonna throw up. But he had a big goofy smile on his face all night last night, so I think he'll be ok. I'm not sure what all the fuss is over waffles...

Oh boy.

Love, J

Oh Boy...

Well...there's good news and bad news this morning. The bad news is that mom-mom can't get my video to post properly...and those of you anxiously awaiting my video already know some good news...

Stay tuned.

Love, J

So Many Visitors!

Our house has been very busy lately. We were very sad to say goodbye to Uncle Dan and Uncle Brian, but we are so happy that they could come out and visit us! I had a great time with my uncles and I am still looking for them in the house. I wake up the morning and call for "UH DANNY?!?" from my bed. Good thing Gramma Jojo will be here in just a few days to distract me.

Here is a picture Uncle Dan took while we were hunting for potato bugs together. He showed me how they roll up when you touch them! I am now just a little obsessed with potato bugs. Thanks, Dan.

Saturday, after we took the uncles to the airport, we had a bit of a party at our house. Mom-mom has decided not to post anyone else's embarrassing photos from the party, but I told her it was ok to post mine.

This is what happens when mom-mom turns her back on a two-year-old at a party...




What a party! You should have seen the other guests...we may or may not have pictures of them in similar poses to mine in that first image! A good time was had by all.

Now we are getting excited about Gramma Jojo's visit on Thursday!!! Just 3 more days!

Love, J

Beach Boys

It was so nice outside yesterdy that we decided to go to the beach. My uncles needed a little sun on their faces and sand in their toes. We went down to Mission Beach and splashed around for a while, then we had lunch. We were so tired when we got home, we all took a little nap!

I showed the boys how to hold my hands in the water and dragged them out there.

Then they started swinging me! It was SO much fun!

We all got a little bit wet.

Uncle Brian buried my feet in the sand. Luckily, I had my "helicoppie" to play with.

Today Uncle Brian has to do a little bit of work, but me, mom-mom and Uncle Danny are going to see my girlfriend Ella! She is in town for a visit...I can't wait. We'll post some pictures tomorrow!

Have a great day!

Love, J

Playin' with the Boys

Uncle Brian AND Uncle Danny are here!!!

Sorry we didn't post anything yesterday, but we were much too busy. We played out in the yard in the morning (after my waffle feast, of course), and then we dropped Danny off with Uncle Brett to go surfing. He did great, except that he was so tired he didn't last too long in the water! While he was surfing, I went for a ride with mom-mom and Uncle Brian. Brian picked out some foods for dinner and we went home and he cooked! Grandma and Grandpa Holko came over and ate the yummy food with us. We had a great night!

Here are some pictures of me and my uncles playing a game in the yard. They were very patient with me and helped me play, too.








I'm not sure what we are going to do today, but it's nice and sunny out so we are going to find some sort of adventure!

Love, J

Great Weekend!

What an exciting weekend I've had! Saturday afternoon mom-mom went and picked Uncle Danny up from the airport. I gave him a HUGE hug when he got here, and we've been having a great time together since.

Uncle Danny has been getting up with me in the morning, and I showed him how to make me my breakfast (I like hot waffles now)...and if he goes outside to talk on his phone I insist on knowing where "Danny" is.

And since I'm such a lucky boy, I get ANOTHER uncle to play with tonight! Uncle Brian will be here soon. Now if only we could get Uncle Mick out here...

Yesterday we went to a picnic at Uncle Brett's house. I got to see Aunt Sarah, and LOTS of other friends. We had a good time playing. Here I am playing Derek's beanbag game...


And just being adorable...

And here are the cupcakes mom-mom made to take to the party. They looked great when she first made them. Unfortunately, it was 85 degrees yesterday, and apparently the butterflies DO NOT like the heat. Mom-mom was sad because they melted a little bit, but we got some pictures and they tasted great!


We'll post more tomorrow!

Love, J
