Tall blondes

I went to the Zoo with Josie, and we did the giraffe stretch. Everyone thought she was my little sister, but I don't know why...

What do monkeys wish for?

Last week was Monkey's birthday. I decorated cupcakes for him all by myself. Then I helped him blow out the candles and eat!

Magic moments

I had a great time at Disneyland this weekend with lots of Nickels, even though it was really, really hot! Why doesn't the snow on the Matterhorn melt?

Magical wedding

Willow was a bridesmaid in her Dad's wedding this weekend. I had so much fun celebrating with everyone. And with this parasol, I feel like Mary Poppins!

8 seconds

This weekend at the SF Zoo Hoedown, I rode a mechanical bull. Well actually, I pretty much jumped right off. Yee haw! Will I ever try it again? I guess so...

Best Birthday Ever!

My 6th birthday lasted all weekend! I had an awesome bounce house party on Saturday, went to a concert on Sunday, and had a school party on Monday. To top it off, I got SO many presents that I can't decide what to play with first. And I got to choose the restaurant tonight- Park Chow! What a great day!

1st Grader

Today is the first day of school. My new shoes light up like a dance party! Thanks for the kicks, Aunt Steph!

The Family Business

Mom & Dad have been running lots of events recently. I'm really excited about it, and I even got my own Shinteki T-shirt so I can help out!

Summer is Sharing

Cousin Emma and I shared a sno-cone (and a chair) at Kira's slip-n-slide party last weekend in San Diego. It was sweet & cold, and it felt great on our new grown-up teeth! Splitting the treat left room for watermelon, cake and candy!

Sleepover

My friend Ale (pronounced like Ollie) spent the night on Friday. It was great timing, since we're both monkey doctors and there was a play-doh related monkey emergency that night. Hey, we said no pictures!

Home Sweet Home

Thanks for a great visit, Mimi and Papi! Now that I'm back home in the fog, I can climb a twisty tree with Daddy!

Flying solo

I flew to Chicago all by myself. And now I get to stay with Mimi and Papi!

The whole Bay Area is fun!

Last weekend I spent Saturday up north in Sonoma, and Sunday down south in Santa Cruz. I also got a new silver belt!

Tourist time

I've visited Pier 39 twice this summer, which is more often than most native San Franciscans!

What are you looking at?

Emma and I went to Stow Lake, and Mommy took the picture. Arr!
