Finding Nemo

Hi everyone.  This month I turned twenty-two months old - I'm practically a grown up.  I'm talking even more now.  I say funny things like "Boopah mean, Mama cry," "Elephant big nose," "Giraffe long neck," "Thank you Mommy," "Boopah naked," "Boopah's turn, Boopah share," and all sorts of three word phrases and other funny stuff too.  This was a big month, with Halloween and all, so I have tons of pictures to share with you.

See my fins?  I'm a clownfish that looks remarkably similar to Nemo.  On Halloween, I wore my costume most of the day.  Since Mommy was at work, most of these pictures are courtesy of "Nonna" who takes care of me during the day.

My best buddy Kaya was a bunny, complete with a carrot.  The carrot looked yummy so I thought I'd try it too, but Kaya didn't like that idea.  

I am a scary fishy with lots of teeth!


I got to go trick or treating twice!  The first time I went with Nonna, Mommy, and other friends.  Daddy was at work still.  Trick or treating was so fun!  

Sometimes I said "Knock knock."

Sometimes I said "Trick or Treat."

Sometimes I said "Thank you."

I always said "Next house."  We went trick or treating around the neighborhood when Daddy got home from work, but since it gets dark at 430 here, I didn't get to take any pictures of that.

This month marks the one year birthday of my blog.  I've been blogging since I was ten months old, like I am in the picture above.  Happy birthday blog!

I am a very concerned citizen and went to vote, twice.  "More vope!"

Mommy has had an easier month this month and we've had more time to do fun stuff.  The following series of pictures is from a nice day at the park.  It was a pretty day, but noone else was at the park since it had rained the night before and all the stuff was wet.  That didn't stop me - weeeee!




We also got to go to the Children's Museum.  I'd been there before but never with Mommy.  It is so fun!




Since it's officially fall, it's time to do more yardwork before the winter sets in.  I like to "pway" in the "leas".  While Daddy rakes them up, I mow them with the lawnmower.  I'm helpful.



We've done a lot of fun stuff this month.
I've cheered on the Cats and the Cards, to no avail.  I can only say "Go Cats!"  Mommy may have something to do with that though.

I tried my first fondue dinner.  Yummy cheese.

Speaking of cheese...

I like to sit in the refrigerator.  Don't ask.

I have a big fro.

I love to build "nunnels" (tunnels) for all my cars to drive through.

I like to splash in the bathtub.

I like to try on my new snowsuit in preparation for what's to come.  Mommy said it did snow this year in Louisville before it did in Boston for the first time this year.  Weird.


Yeah, life overall is pretty tough.  There's some pretty cool stuff coming up - Thanksgiving, a trip to Kentucky, Christmas, my 2nd birthday, so you'd better stay tuned.  Take care!

Boopah and Ayeee Dup

Hello.  My name is Boopah.  Yes, Boopah.  At least that's what I call myself.  I'm now 21 months old and growing up quickly.  The weather is getting colder, the leaves are all sorts of colors, and mommy and daddy had really busy months at work, so they didn't take too many pictures.  I say really funny stuff...  If you ask me what color something is, I always say bwoo.  If I can't find you, I say Momma where are you?  When I go pick up Daddy from work, I say Hurry up!  If I'm afraid of something, I say Bye bye, night night.  After I sneeze, I say Boopahs neez.


One of my favorite sayings is "more cars."  There will never be enough cars.  Mimi and Papaw came for a whole week this month to visit us.  It was the first time Papaw had seen us here in Boston.  I told Mimi "more cars" and she lined them up on top of me.  It was so funny.  I have all sorts of cars, but my favorite one is Ayeee.  Ayeee is also known as Sally, the little Porsche from the movie Cars.  I must have Ayeee with me at all times.  I also have a cup that has Ayeee on it that I call my Ayeee dup (translation:  Sally cup).  


It is definitely fall here in Boston.  The weather is cooler and it is now dark when mommy and daddy go to work and dark again when they get home.  Let's go on a walk through our neighborhood...

One of our neighbors has a "Boo tree."  This is a tree with little ghosts and pumpkins (or ghoosss and punkin) attached to it.  The Boo Tree is cool!  "Ghoosss, boo!"


This neighbor has an inflatable house with little goblins inside.  Can you believe it?

This neighbor has a skull on his front steps.

All this Halloween spirit got us in the mood to go to the Pumpkin Patch.  We had to find just the right pumpkin.  We headed up to Lookout Farms to find just the perfect one.  There were so many choices.


I can't decide!


I finally found the perfect one.

See, doesn't it look great on the front steps?  Check out our Red Sox pumpkin too!!  Notice Ayeee in my left hand.

Mimi and Papaw were perfect babysitters so Mommy and Daddy could go out for an early anniversary dinner.  They brought me the movie Cars.  I never sit still, even for a moment, but the second that movie came on, Bebe, Ayeee dup, blankie and I were ready to watch "Lightning, Doc, Mater, and Ayeee" all night long.

Mimi, Mommy, and I took a trip to the Aquarium.  Mimi wanted me to smile and take my picture with the sting ray, but it was scary.  Bye bye, night night!!!

At least there was glass separating me and Myrtle the Turtle.  We saw lots of "shawks, poosh, turtles, and pengins" (translation: sharks, fish, turtles, and penguins).


I had a nice visit with Mimi and Papaw.  They left to go "airpane up sky."  So now "Super Boopah" will say bye bye, night night.
