Springtime

Hiking with papa (a self portrait)
Exploring in Discovery park

Helping pull weeds. Pasha is confused about why mom doesn't want him to pull on the pretty ones....

Spring is almost here

The weather in Seattle was lovely yesterday. Pasha got to wear shorts for the first time this year, and he was a little confused about why his knees were showing. Unfortunately by the afternoon Mama was too tired to play in the yard or go to the park (growing new people is tough work) so Pasha got to play with water in the kitchen sink instead. This activity ended when he realized how hilarious it was to throw cups of cold water at Mama who was trying to read a magazine.

San Francisco For Gram's 60th Birthday

Pasha is a take charge kind of guy and prefers to push his stroller rather than sit in it whenever he gets the chance.
Gram and Gramps take Pasha on his first cable car ride. It seemed like a good idea at first, but once on the car, Pasha gets a littler nervous and holds on tight. Ding! Ding!

Papa and Pasha share some snacks outside Ghirardelli Square

Pasha is becoming quite the table artist with crayons. At every meal he creates a new masterpiece....
..and sometimes he take a break from coloring to eat too.

At the aquarium at Pier 39 the wonders never ceased.

But by far the best part of San Francisco for Pasha was all the buses!!

It seems we have some catching up to do.....

The weather is warming, so Pasha has started helping mowing the lawn. Papa can't wait until Pasha is old enough to do it on his own.

Pasha got a new little push trike, it was like Christmas for Easter!

And he spends his time playing with the mini-trucks, parking, re-parking and lining them up in various places.
The biggest news of all is that Pasha will be a big brother this Thanksgiving! Mama is 12 weeks along with a new tater baking!
