17 Squared

Hola amigos! Can you believe it? I'll be 17 months old on the 17th! I just finished my first full month as big brother and I did pretty dern well if I do say so myself. I like to push Piper in her swing and I'm pretty sure I can get it to do a loop-d-loop if I push her hard enough when Mom and Dad aren't looking. She's fun to poke and prod too, which she must enjoy because Mom tells me I keep making Piper "light up". Am I a great brother or what?

Would you like a kwah-ker? Yes? Then by all means, please have a seat at my NEW TABLE! It's some of the finest particle board IKEA has to offer, you know. I plan to customize it with the first crayon or other permanent marking object I see. I'm thinking a Jackson Pollock motif might work, or early Warhol, I haven't decided.

Hut one, hut two, HIKE! Dad said the 2008 predictions are in and unfortunately our AZ CATS are supposed to stink again. I called Stoops (the head coach for you non-CATS) for a tryout, but he said I was academically inlegible or something. What a crock. I could easily take those bums from ASU and USC to town as you can see below when I practiced tackling Dad.

Dad said my new big word for the month is "Indoctrination." We're also working on "Go Wildcats", "Bear Down" and "ASU Stinks!" Boy, learning really IS fun.

Thanks for stopping by and we'll see you next time. Hasta, R E
