Summer under the Sun

Joshua's been spending lots of time under the California sun this summer and having lots of fun along the way. Since his mommy has been less energetic during her last month of pregnancy, he's had a chance to hang out with lots of new friends! He loves to transfer things from one container to another, feel them in his hands and mouth (unfortunately), and eat and play with others' toys. He also loves to throw things he calls "chash" into the trashcan (most of the time they are trash). His favorite snack is "aikem" as he makes a fist and puts it to his mouth and mimicks licking it (that would be the sign for ice cream for those who still wonder) and favorite beverage is "juice" and always asks for "morm pease" (although mommy always tries to limit to the recommended 4 oz/day). Here are some pix from this July and August (he's about 20-21 months).

Paddle boat with the Hsiehs.  They had to hang onto their 2 and a half (Marky) as well has Joshua while paddling.  Very brave.

Loading up the machine.  Still can't really squirt the water though.

Chilling at the Beach with Ava Warren.  This is probably his first time playing with sand at the beach.  He wasn't really interested in getting in the water.  Was plenty happy with the sand and people around him.

Went to a local park with water jets for kids.  Thought he would love it.  Instead, he was terrified, even with daddy holding him, so after spending 2 minutes or so, headed home.

LOVES to vacuum.  Always excited to "help" daddy out with the vacuuming.  He does call it "vacuum".

Had dinner with the Chins (Phil's cousin and his family visiting from Tahiti) at a Korean BBQ place.  Joshua loves to give hugs and kisses at at one point hugged and kissed his 2nd(?) cousin, the little girl who is about his age.

Loves to just snuggle under daddy's arm and fall asleep.  Daddy loves it too.  Say's that he just can't help it.
