You're not sick

So you ended up with a bit of a chest cold last week and the result was that I had to stay home with you on Thursday. I decided we should celebrate our day off with a bang. The picture says it all. You can never go wrong with Benis!

In N Out

Here's a funny video of you being obsessed with eating a cheeseburger and fries from In N Out. The funny thing is that I had just made us a delicious home made pizza prior to the making of this video. Apparently, that wasn't enough for you. You decided to grab your old piano and create this gem!

Gazelle

Just a quick video of you from this past weekend of you at Salt Lake Park in Huntington Park. You might give me a run for my money sooner rather than later.

Mothers Day 2014

Well, for this Mothers Day we made our return to the LBC. We went down to the YardHouse for an early lunch. Even though we got there early, we still ended up waiting for quite a bit. This only increased all of your appetites while we waited. Once we got our seats outside, we were eager to place our orders. We decided to get an appetizer of chips and guacamole. Boy, were we surprised when we got plenty of guacamole, but only a handful of chips. (Que Price is Right music)!

Anyways, we all enjoyed our meals and then we went for a walk along the shoreline. This was a great way to walk off our food and let you run around. We ended up at a familiar site which is the tower at the top of a small area of grass. We were just hanging out and enjoying our view, when you decided to run to the top and become a human bowling ball.

You announced that you were going to start rolling down the hill, which caught my ear. I immediately turned around to see what you were up to. The next thing I know, you're on your way down the small hill and very rapidly picking up momentum. It was all in slow motion. Your body rolled down the hill, while your legs were uncontrollably whipping in a circular motion. The whole time (or short time), your mom gazed into the ocean. I didn't like where this was headed.

Sure enough your two paths would cross and your foot ends up kicking your mom right in the back of the head. That was Awesome! (Me in my Stifler voice from the movie Old School when Will Ferrell shoots himself in the neck with a tranquilizer gun). You'll have to see the movie to understand.

Well, that concluded our trip to the LBC! Great times!

Angels vs Yankees

As a result of doing a good job at work, I was given 4 tickets to the game on Cinco de Mayo! Our initial guest cancelled (I'll let you guess who was responsible) Hint: It wasn't me!  We scrambled to find someone to join us and we were able to get your old friend Zaira to come with us. It was actually her first baseball so she was somewhat excited. This happened to be your second game. We got there in the first inning and found our seats. We got to see such stars as the 254 million dollar man Albert Pujos, 22 year old Mike Trout, who just signed a 6 year, 144.5 million dollar extension, and finally Derek Jeter, who is playing in his final professional season. This time around, I tried to get you to focus the pitcher and watch him throw the ball. When a batter would make contact and hit the ball into the air, you would get really excited watching the ball land into the stands.

During the 4th inning, you and I went to make a pit stop. We had to wait in a bit of a line, but we finally made it to the stall. As I approached the toilet I noticed something really huge floating in there. I said great, a floating turd. But no, it was actually a beer bottle that some kind pedestrian deposited into the toilet. Awesome! We handled our business and exited the premises. Before we headed back to our seats, we picked up some garlic fries. Only $7.50 for a very small handful of waffle fries. They were gone before I could blink.We stayed until the 7th inning stretch so that we could get Zaira to sing "Take me out to the ball game" with us. Fun was had by all!
