But, Dadda, it hurts! Did the bear push me from behind? Did someone trip me? All I know is that I was running down the path from watching the black bear and, SPLAT, a faceplant in the rocks! Are you sure I won't be scarred for life?

How fun is this? In the middle of a sandy beach, there was this rock wall which I got to climb and look through a hole in it to see all my family standing below in the sand! Wow!

And goalkeeper Tyler blocks another shot! Dadda keeps trying to score but I'm getting a little too much for him to handle, at soccer at least!

Here we are playing in the sand and surf of Hampton Beach, New Hampshire on our vacation. The wet sand felt funny in between our toes!

This is my second visit to New England. I feel perfectly safe holding Dad's hand while tempting the waves in the Atlantic Ocean. Well, the water is cold, though. Guess he can't do much about that for me!

I'm loving the water in the pool with Dada, Mama and Zachy. We were vacationing at Grandma and Papa's timeshare in Ogunquit, Maine.

This gymnastics class requires a lot of concentration! I'm not quite ready to go for the gold, but check back with me in a few minutes.

How cool is this? My own cave! Portable, too! I feel like a famous explorer.

Hey, look at me bowling! With this launcher I haven't had a gutterball all day!

I called Grandma and sang "Happy Birthday" to her last week. She got all teary-eyed because she hadn't seen me since Auntie Beth got married last year! That's half a life time for me, I'm only two, you know!

Now that I'm 2 years old I have to take on more responsibility. Like hanging on to my little brother, Zach, so he doesn't fall and hurt himself when he gets excited watching Jeopardy and knows the answer when the contestants don't!

I bet you can't guess how old I am now! Don't be silly! Not in years, in minutes!

You know, I'm starting to see there may be a little disadvantage to being the older brother or cousin! I didn't ask to be in charge!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to everybody. Now tell me, do I have the best smile, or what?
