Happy New Year!

I'll be celebrating New Years Eve in northern Japan with Great-Grandma! I leave soon and will be there into the new year. Unfortunately, she has no internet (so I won't be updating my blog for a while). On the plus side, she does have heat.

See you in 2008!!

My Favourite Chair (in Japan) 33rd month

Yes, once again I'm having my 'favourite chair' picture taken in Japan. And once again, Mommy forgot to bring my favourite chair.

Fortunately, Grandpa let me use his favourite chair. Except for the purple colour, velvet material and ancient styling, I think it's beautiful.

Hooray- I'm all packed!

As you can see, I'm all packed and ready to go (I leave for Japan tomorrow)! Since I'll be gone for a whole month, I thought I would pack a little bit extra (just kidding Grandma, we're not taking all this).

P.S. I've got a cold! Hopefully I'll be well enough to fly; otherwise I'll ship myself by FedEx.

P.S. I won't be posting much from Japan. Instead, I'll be updating my pictures via slideshow (above). Hope you enjoy!

Going to Japan!

Guess what? On Saturday, I'm going to Japan!! Just in time to escape our cold Canadian winter (and experience Japan's typhoons, tsunamis, floods, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions)!!

On second thought, maybe I'll settle for a postcard from Mommy.

Watch out Grandma, here I come!

Another cold day

Today's another cold day. Actually, here in Canada, every day is another cold day. But that's ok, I've got my fur trimmed parka* to keep me warm.


*No animals were harmed in the taking of this picture.

Oh boy, another present!

Here I am about to receive my Chanukah present (I love this holiday- I get a new gift every day!)

(To see a VIDEO CLIP of this joyous occasion, CLICK_HERE (also HERE)).

I need a new prescription

I don't know why people wear glasses. I tried on a pair and couldn't see a thing! (Must be a fashion statement).

Happy Chanukah!

The literal translation of the word "Chanukah" is: "the word that no-one can spell". Last year I spelled it 'Hannukah'. This year I'm using 'Chanukah' and next year I'm going with 'Hanukka'. Personally, as long as it's happy, I don't care.

Water torture

Every day, Mommy waters the plants to help them grow. I guess that's why she waters my head every day (It's working- I'm growing!) To make this water torture more bearable, I sometimes wear protective gear!

It's Wet!

Giddyap!

Sometimes when I'm bored, I go horseback riding around the house. Here I am riding Karren (she's my new babysitter/horsey). I like Karren because she gives the best rides. Of course it helps when I guide her.

Hey, you're not my Mommy!

Sheeeesh, I've never heard anyone scream so loud before! It's not my fault I picked the wrong changing room.

(Disclaimer: I never learned this skill from Daddy)

Man about town

Here I am taking my daily stroll. It's a routine I've been doing since, well, yesterday. The cold air helps clear my head so I can better deal with the daily stresses of life.

Bedtime adventures

Mommy & Daddy think I'm an escape artist. That's why they put me to bed in a straitjacket. As you can see below, I almost escaped (but was foiled when I suddenly fell asleep).

The next day, however, revenge was mine as I surprised Mommy & Daddy in their own bed!

Me, after struggling with my straitjacket.

Emerging triumphant the next day.

Up to no good

Here's another fine mess I got myself into. I started off looking for some books and, before I knew it, I was buried in them! Who knew reading could be so dangerous?!

Help, I'm stuck!!

Hugging Elmo

Here I am with Baby Elmo. I love him 'cause we see eye to eye. Daddy says as long as he's not a purple dinosaur, he's happy.

Another date..

While out cruising the other day, I picked up a really sweet girl. At first she was apprehensive, so I had to serenade her into the car. After some chit chat, I eventually drove off to a quiet spot I knew. Well, as you can see below, one thing led to another, and I kissed her. I'm sure she liked it 'cause she made the same face that Mommy makes with Daddy (last picture).

You're so pretty, I want to kiss you..

Sssmooooooochh!!

MEN! They're all the same!!

My Favourite Chair (32nd month)

Here, grab both legs and make a wish!

My wish is that I never grow out of my favourite chair. Looking at Mommy & Daddy, I'd say they had the very same wish.

Haircut #4

Yes, it's true. I got another haircut! (Number four in the series). Daddy decided to take me after someone told him he had a "beautiful daughter". (That's ok, he's always wanted a girl).

When we arrived, the hairdresser thought I was very well behaved. The fact is, I didn't move because of her vice like grip.

THIS HAIRCUT MAKES ME LOOK DIFFERENT!!

My new home

Welcome to my new home. Daddy made it for me the other day from a big box he had delivered (he kept what was IN the box, I kept the box. It's a win-win).

I really love my new home. I even furnished it with my favourite chair (and not much else). If you ever decide to visit me, I'll keep a watch out for you.

What?!!

What? There's something on my lip??!!!

My bad habit

Mommy caught me sucking my toes! I've had this habit for a long time (as you can see here). Oh well, at least I don't suck my thumb.

Mmmmm, Not Bad..

What're you lookin at?!

Can't a kid rest his tired feet? First you make me walk.. then you make me wait.. then you make me model clothes! It can drive a man to drink!

Itsy Bitsy Spider

Of all the cuddly stuffed animals I've got, this one is my favourite (yes, it's a big hairy spider). I take him everywhere with me, even to bed. Good night.. Sweet dreams.

Balancing act

School's out! That means it's time to play! Here you see me trying to balance school time with play time. In this case, I was unsuccessful.

Halloween (one week later)

Halloween was exactly one week ago. To celebrate this anniversary, I've decided to show you some more Halloween pictures!

- Being a ghostbuster
- Going trick or treating
- Me: "Trick or Treat!"
- Helping out at the door
- Halloween at school
- My nutty school friends

Presents!

One of the best parts of Daddy going away was when he returned. The fact that he brought me gifts has nothing to do with this feeling. (Ok, maybe just a little).

Daddy's home!

Here I am running to greet Daddy at the airport (he just returned from New York) . As you can see I'm very excited to see him (he was excited to see me too).

Happy Halloween!

After hiding out in the jungle, Mommy finally caught me! Fortunately I escaped.. just in time for Halloween!

To all my fans-
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
(from Monkey Boy)!

____________________________

P.S. Daddy's escaped too. He's off to the jungles of New York City. Unfortunately, he's taking the computer with him so I won't be able to update my blog 'til Monday. See you then!

This job drive me batty

One of my responsibilities at home is hanging bats every Halloween! This job was never in my job description!!


P.S. Tomorrow you'll see my Halloween costume (Here's Andy's). Mommy & Daddy are going as themselves.

A True Gentleman

Mommy says I can be a true gentleman when I want to be. So ladies, if you want the perfect gentleman, HERE I AM (if you prefer, I can be a cowboy or fireman too).

The man of many faces

People say my face is very expressive, like Daddy. Maybe that's why he has so many wrinkles.

my face hurts

"If you're happy and you know it .."

Here I am clapping to one of my favourite songs "if you're happy and you know it clap your hands". In my version, however, I clap my head. Somehow, I find it more entertaining.*

*Here's the VIDEO CLIP.
(To hear me sing "twinkle, twinkle..", CLICK HERE)

"this song gives me a headache"

Retrieving my balloon

Here I am trying to retrieve my yellow balloon. Since Mommy & Daddy are both vertically challenged, I decided to get it myself.

The first thing I grabbed was my trusty green chair (as you recall, it's helped me in the past). Then, for extra reach, I used a super long hanger. Well, you'll be happy to know, I got it! Now if I can only reach the car keys on the dresser...

Bobblehead

Yes, I know, I'm a Bobblehead. I've been one ever since I was a baby. Hopefully one day my body will grow into my head.

My Favourite Chair (31st month)

Well, here it is, my favourite chair photo. I can't believe a whole month has gone by since my last one (it seems like just 30 days ago).

Despite all my posing, the only thing I got from Daddy is a kiss on the cheek. Personally, he can kiss this.

Duck!

Quack, Quack! For some aquatic reason, I've been walking around like a duck lately.
(which reminds me of this story...)

Superboy!

"Look, Up in the air, Is it a bird? Is it a plane? NO, it's SUPERBOY!!"

As you can see, Daddy still plays "too ruff" with me. In this case, he's also teaching me about gravity. For instance, he just taught me that what goes up must come down.

Relaxing weekend

As you know, I just love weekends. It gives me the time I need with Mommy & Daddy (they're very 'needy'). In fact, I've been spending weekends with them since I was a baby.

Spending time with Mommy & Daddy

School artwork

Here I am admiring my masterpiece from school. When it comes to artwork, Daddy truly inspires me (I got this idea by looking at his placemat after dinner).

One day this will be worth millions!

*Psssst, wanna see my BEST FRIEND at school? CLICK HERE.
(wanna see my worst friend at school? click here).

Ready or not, here I come!

Here I am accelerating down the world's biggest red slide! I went so fast I almost pee'd my pants. So did Daddy!

To see a live action, 3D VIDEO CLIP of me whizzing down, CLICK-HERE.

(to see Daddy's attempt at the slide, click-here).

Weekend at Wonderland

I went to Wonderland over the weekend and had the best time of my entire week. I went on over 500 rides! I even saw Dora the Explorer! (She's a lot bigger in real life).

On the left, you see me on my favourite ride of all time- the 'spinning blue sphere'. It was so much fun, Daddy almost puked!

* Here's a VIDEO CLIP of my wild ride! *

Going for a spin

Sometimes when I'm bored, I like to drop to the floor and spin on my tummy. Don't ask me why, it's what I do. Here's a VIDEO CLIP of me demonstrating the proper technique.

Wheeeeee!

Watching Treehouse

Here I am watching 'Treehouse' on TV. It's my favourite channel. Actually, it's my ONLY channel, since Mommy doesn't let me watch anything else (she thinks TV will rot my brain and turn me into a zombie). I disagree with Mommy. After all, Daddy watches all the time. Uhhh, Never mind.

The Heartbreak Kid

I've done it again. I've fallen for another girl (I'm so sorry Sarah).

This one's name is 'Charlie' and she has beautiful red hair (just touching it made me weak in the knees). We spent time together that glorious day. And yes, we kissed.

I wished the day would never end, but alas it did. We said our goodbyes and I left. Sadly, we never exchanged phone numbers. Like Sarah, we're like two passing ships in the night. Adieu sweet Charlette, adieu.

"Be still my beating heart".

Wake up sleepy head!

My brother Andy came to visit me! (he lives somewhere else now).

As you can see, Andy was tired and took a nap. Of course, napping around me is futile. At first I tried walking on his back. When that didn't wake him, I pulled his leg. Finally, I got his attention by twisting his head (I learned this trick from Mommy).



(Psssst, if you wanna see this picture 2 years ago, CLICK HERE)

Caught me!

Oh oh, you caught me! (again). I know I shouldn't be crawling back here but I dropped something. Ya, that's it, I dropped something!

I guess it's curtains for me!

(At least I wasn't HANGING off the door)!

More toilet antics

As you know from my last poopy post, I like spending toilet time with Mommy. To see what makes it fun, click here- [video clip].
