Andy Zumsteg's Adventures: April 2008

Rebuilding the Train Tracks

I have started to figure out how to put my train set back together after I accidentally destroy it. Notice the high amount of concentration I need to finish this.

Elmo's World

For some reason I like to try to eat light-up spinning Elmo toy. It really makes me laugh!

Christmas in April?

Grandma and Grandad Zumsteg will appreciate this, I still love this guy!!!

Train Time

I still love to play with my train Santa brought me. Santa is much better at buying me presents than Dad. Santa brought me this great train set, while all Dad got me for my birthday was the tricycle that I am still scared of. I also like to go to Grandma and Grandad Zumsteg's house and play with their train set up.

TV Time

Adults don't worry, Mom and Dad do not let me watch TV all day. I get to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for a half hour in the morning, and then after dinner I get to watch Sesame Street. I love to climb up into the big chair with Oski, grab a snack and watch Grover, Telly, Elmo, Big Bird and crew on Sesame Street. I am also becoming a big Thomas the Train fan, I guess all us little boys love that show. Speaking of trains see the next post, where you can see me driving my train around the dining room.

Stow Lake

I had not been to Stow Lake in awhile, but I decided to drag dad up there by the back steps last weekend. I had a good time watching the ducks from up close, and they made me laugh (see picture 1). Some of you may notice I recently had a haircut.

Tree

Everyday I like to go to the Arboretum and see my favorite Tree. You can see yourself how nice it is. Its really tall and I love to just run to it, look up and point at it. I don't know why I picked this tree, but I must like it.

Easter

Easter Sunday we went out to Grandma's to see Grandma and Great Grandma. We had a really nice barbecue and there were eggs hidden all over in the plants with chocolate in them which I really liked. I had on a cute outfit that day so here are some shots of me. I also had bought some new slick shoes during the week.

Monterey Trip

The main reason the blog has not been updated forever is quite honestly the month of March was a complete disaster. We were supposed to take a family trip, but then Mom, Dad and Myself all became sick and we had to cancel it. We tried to salvage it by going to Monterey for a day, and visiting the new splash zone at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. My favorite part there was the play area and the slide (which I am still trying to get better at), but the penguins were great to. We went to Hogs Breath for lunch in Carmel, then I had a melt down and we had to come home early. To top if off the next day Dad came down with Pink Eye, and he couldn't hold me for three days. Finally after 3 weeks of being sick, everyone got better just in time for Dad to go back to work for 13 days out of 14. This is the 2nd year in a row Dad's birthday had been a total wipeout.

The Ramp and Parking Garage

This is the famous parking garage many of you have heard about. I can spend hours driving all my cars up at down the ramp and up the elevator.

Lagunitas Trips

These are a few shots of me in Lagunitas in February and early March. I have become a big fan of making cookies and waffles with Grandma out there, and it was such a big hit mom bought a waffle maker for home and we make them all the time now.
