New Year's Eve Party!

I'm teaching Ethan a thing or two about being a person.

Sick Day

I went to the doctor this morning for being sick.  I've never done that before.  I went once when I got a bug bite on my foot and it swelled up really big.  And I went once when I cut my forehead open on a rock and needed to get it glued back together.  But this morning I went because I was having a hard time breathing when I woke up.  Wheeze, wheeze, wheeze.  That's what it was like.  So we went in and the nebulized me and gave me some nasty medicine.  I don't think I like nasty medicine or being nebulized.  And anyway, it doesn't really seem like either one helped very much.  We'll see how I feel when I wake up from my nap today.  Here are some pictures of me at the doctor's office:

The Airport

A few weekends ago Mom and Dad and I went to the airport to watch the airplanes. I love airplanes. You can watch them taxi, and land, and take off. Sweet.

I Beat Up the Coffee Table With My Face

I've Reached the Ripe Old Age of 18 Months

My newest video is up. I worked for six long months to get enough footage for this baby. I hope you like it!

Okay, youtube won't let me include the audio. Phooey. If you'd like to see this video with sound (which is definitely the recommended viewing method), just type the following into your browser:

I Turned One Year Old (almost six months ago)!

Next week I'll be 18 months old. A year and a half . . . can you believe it? Well, Mom was a little negligent and forgot to put together my 6-12 month video before, so here it is now. It should be followed up fairly soon by one featuring more recent photos and footage of me. Enjoy!

It's been forever, huh?

I guess it's been a while since I updated this blog, huh? I've been busy. Anyway, here's a picture of me that's a little more current than the previous ones.














Ha ha ha. Just kidding. For real, though, here are a few relatively recent pictures. I am currently what Mom calls a walking, talking snot machine. I drool and snot a lot because I'm getting more teeth (I've got six whole ones and I'm working on a few more). I'm an excellent walker and I climb pretty well too. And I probably know about 25 words, although I'm not entirely clear on what some of them mean.

Anyway, I'm having a blast. Life is good when you're a little over 17 months old. Thanks for liking me enough to read this!


I LOVE being outside. I run out the door every chance I get. When Grandma and Grandpa Tschamler were here in September we hiked to this little lake and had a picnic.

We went backpacking with Auntle Sach and Dad caught a newt for me to poke.

I guess I'm what Uncle Christer calls "rough and tumble." Mostly I just like to play.

I like camping.

Sara is still one of my four favorite aunts, even after all this time.

When we go sailing Daddy takes me right up onto the bow of the boat!

I just noticed that Mom accidently left the grapes from the grocery store on the bed.

Then I ate some. I really like grapes.

A few weeks ago I climbed my first two Adirondack High Peaks, Cascade and Porter Mountains. Mom and Dad said it kicked their butts, but I didn't really think it was that hard.

Of course if you're going to hike a lot you need to replenish your fluids. I'm excellent at dring from a Camelbak.

Mom and I have a lot of fun together. We're friends.

This year we went to Giants training camp in Albany and saw the big boys up close.

When I feel cranky a lot of times wrestling on the bed will help. Here we are after a good match.

And it looks like I claimed the victory in this one. Mom's down.
