Going Grocery Shopping

Little Elmo waits in line.
Little Elmo starts to whine.
Loaf of bread and cream of wheat...Little Elmo wants his treat!
It's no fun at Shop-O-Rama
Little Elmo MAD at Mama!
[Read Andrew's favorite book: Llama Llama Mad at Mama]

Time to leave.
The shopping's done.
No more waiting.
Time for fun.

Don't forget to pay for those vegetables.

Multi-Tasking

No freeloaders here. Everybody has to pitch in to keep this house in order---even those under three feet tall. However, just because there is work to be done doesn't mean you can't sing to make the work a little more fun. Andrew loves to sing his ABCs and he is learning his letters. His favorite letters are "M" and "W." He points them out on every cereal box, newspaper article, and in every book we read. Here is some video footage of Andrew multi-tasking.

*Note: At the end of the movie, Andrew is trying to do the shaka.

*Note #2: Don't you just LOVE that the answer to EVERY question is NO!
Ahhh, 2-year-olds are so fun.

Here are some fun new tricks Andrew has learned.
His neighborhood buddies taught him how to ride a skateboard.

Check out this new trick-- just another way to give me gray hair.

Work Hard & Play Hard

Here are some fun pictures from school.
Here is Andrew's class participating in a fire drill.
I thought they looked cute all sitting in a row.

Just wanted to point out Andrew's girlfriend--- Mia.

She is the teeny one on the far left with the spiral curls.
One day last week, I saw her run up to Andrew and tackle him.
She must weigh 25 pounds. Chunker Andrew is pushing 32 pounds.
He folded like a house of cards.
Andrew's two favorite loves: bike riding and scooter riding.
Sorry, Uncle Ben and Aunt Jamie...I couldn't get footage of scooter riding.
I'll try again soon.

It was too quiet, so I went to find Andrew.
This is what I found...
This is Andrew's big boy bed.
He napped in it once, but he's still in his crib.
