Playing with John

Today is a double treat a picture of me in a tree and a video of John and I playing after story time. Framor said that I'm a chip off the old block. That dad used to climb trees and anything else that looked remotely climbable.
The video of John and I pretending to ride horses is kind of fun too. You all enjoy your weekend and I will have more treats for you next week. Little"G"

Fun in the Sun

Or what I did at Oma's house. Here it is almost October and Its in the low 80's. Well that means outdoor fun for me. We went over to Oma's and the dogs and I had such great fun running in the sprinklers, playing ball on the tennis court and just exploring the grounds. Grandpa and I even played some basketball and I got to dunk the basketball. The hoop is regulation height but of course my ball isn't.
Ricki and Nika love to get wet and roll in the grass. Come to think about it so do I. We chase the tennis balls and each other, Ricki especially likes to be chased. Nika is more fun because she will give me her ball and let me throw it for her. You should see how she can accelerate and catch her ball.


I don't leave farmor out of the fun either I like to take her hat and sunglasses off and tease her with them. Its all in fun and I do it to grandpa too. I was so soak and wet that farmor took my clothes off excepting my diaper for the ride home. Yes my clothes and shoes were a little more than wet, they also got a touch dirty.
I hope you enjoy the pictures from today remember to click on a individual picture for a expanded view and click it again to go back to the show...........Little"G"

Water

The weather was so nice today that we went on another long walk. Part of my responsibilities are to help feed and water the dogs. Todays picture is of me fulfilling my duties. Try clicking on my picture for a different view.
Nika wasn't the only one to get water I also made sure that Ricki got his fair share. Of course we had to have our carrots as a midmorning snack.
When we got home I let the dogs drink out of their water bowl then I proceeded to throw my ball into the water. You should have seen the big splashes I made. Of course there also was a slight mess, but I had so much fun.
I was so hungry at lunch I just wolfed down my hamburger and noodles. It just hit the right spot. There was no sharing with the dogs they will have to wait until tonight to get theirs.
Have a nice day and so long for now. I need to finish my frozen strawberry yogurt. Little"G"

Scoopage

Thats right grandma and grandpa or farmor and farfar which ever you prefer heard a new word over the weekend "scoopage". Well todays scoopage is I had a great time at story time at the library. I only had one small mishap when I was playing hide and seek. I ran full speed into a stack of books. I cried a little but it upset Keegan so much that I had to stop before he cried too.
During story time I got to play ball and the ball had a nice sounding bell in it and we all made some nice music to go along with the story. I did better at participating in the group activities. I recognized all the children and played with some of them. Maybe this story time is not so bad.
For those of you that haven't looked at grandpa's website I'm attaching a video clip we made last week on one of our walks.

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did in making it. Little"G"

Sharing

Today I went on a walk with Farmor, Grandpa, Ricki and Nika. While running a round and playing the dogs and I got thirsty so I got to give the dogs water from their bottle. Of course we all got to share the water first Ricki he's real pushy that way. Then Nika and I took turns which you can see in this slide show.


I also wanted to show you the neat windmill that is on Georgia Lane its a real blast from the past. Well its time to eat now so have a nice weekend and I'll blog at you next week. Little"G"

Yank My Chain


You might think what a strange or even funny title for a blog post. Maybe it is but you will see by these pictures that today had its share of chains.
This first picture of me testing the chain connector on the fire hydrant. I hope the fire department appreciates my help.

In the other picture I'm testing the barrier chain. Thankfully all the chains I tested were in good working order and get my approval.
Today was such a wonderful day to run and play in the leaves. The wind was blowing, the leaves were falling and I was running, jumping and diving into them. I guess you would say that fall is a neat season. Well its time to go blog at you later. Little"G"

More Story Time Video


More Story Time Video. My mom wanted to now what it was that we did at the library so here is a video of what happened. You will notice that we all were sitting so nicely on the floor. I especially was well behaved. Well that might be a small stretch of the imagination.
For those of you who would rather see some of the animals I visit attached is a picture of Lorenzo the Llama and his flock of sheep.

Enjoy watching the video. Little"G"

Story Time

Today I got to go to the Portola Valley Town Library for story time. Its just for little ones like me. I met lots of other toddlers who came to hear the lady read the fun stories. The nice lady reads and we clap our hands, point at body parts and shake our feet. We even got to sing along and dance while the lady reads the stories to us. Of course I had a hard time staying still so I explored the library and played hide and seek with grandpa. I loved it so many books and neat places to explore I can hardly wait until next week. I even got two books to read at home. Read to Your Bunny and Baby's First Stories.
After the story time was over I got to play with John who is 2 years old and grandpa took this short video of our fun.

Well its time for a short snooze I'll be blogging at you later. Little"G"

All Boy

Thats right grandpa says I qualify for the title all boy and we are attaching this photo to prove it (remember to click on the picture to see it full size you wont believe your eyes). You will note several things, plenty of dirt on my face, hands and clothing. Water in several places you can see and some that you can't. Perched on the old stepping stool which I accomplished on my first try and with no help from anyone. You might say I'm on my way to higher places.
Now that the weekend is approaching here is a short video of me on the drums. Little"G"

New Friends

Today I meet a new horse friend who lives with Atlas on Westridge. You remember Atlas he is the beautiful white horse you have seen me feed on my videos. Well his new friend was so happy to see all of us and is so sweet when he takes his carrots.
The other animals I meet today where the sheep that live off of Georgia Lane. They are usually not out during the hot weather but now that it is cooler they came out to play. In fact they where so interested in what we where doing that they came up close to the fence to see what the dogs and I where doing. Take a look at this album for some of yesterdays and todays highlights.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that we were real busy on our two and half hour walk today. I even ran all the way on Farm Road in Woodside and thats a long way on my little legs. It was so much fun there are large piles of leaves to play in and I chase my ball all over the trail and road. There is no traffic in this area so its a real safe place to play. Blog at you later Little"G"

18 Months and Counting

Thats right I'm as of today a year and a half or 18 months or 547 plus days old. It seems like yesterday when I first arrived on the scene. What excitement, mom, dad and all the relatives where so excited as they should have been. It's an important event when someone special arrives to wow and entertain you.

In todays video you will see how much I have improved in by basic dexterity or how MOBILE I am. The video opens with me enjoying some flowers and then exhibiting my skills on the run. Time for a little rest. Blog at you later. Little"G"

Blog Pal

Thats right I now have a new blog pal Greyson who's nickname is Little"G" just like mine. His mom and dad e-mailed me and said that they loved my blog and grandpa's website. Well I went to Greyson's website and it is great. Be sure to check it out.


Today I have had a very busy day playing and exercising the grandparents and my dogs. I even was trying hats on Nika and Ricki. They looked so funny but grandpa wasn't fast enough with his camera. So I have to show you how well I climb on the fireplace and share water with Nika. Little"G"

Sand, Sand and More Sand


No I wasn't in the desert even thou it was warm outside. I was at the park where I enjoyed filling my bucket with sand and then pouring it all over myself. Grandpa filled up the bucket and wow a light went on in my head. I can make a mess, I can dig in the stuff and is it fun.
Of course that's not all that I did. I played on the slide and the spring toys. Then I went into the big kids area and went on swing and the climbing toys.
When we went to leave the park I pointed out to grandpa that it was my job to take the keys and unlock the car. I wonder where I learned that?
I just finished my lunch of meatballs, french fries and Popsicle. It's time for a little nap so blog at you later. Little"G"

Salt Mines


Thats right today it was back to the salt mines. After my energetic action filled long weekend with mom and dad. It was back to my job as entertainer, physical therapist and dog walker for Farmor Eivor and Grandpa Ted.
After psyching myself up on the commute to work I was ready to hit the street running. I entertained them with dancing to videos and demonstrating the proper use of my trucks and wooden puzzle toys. Then I went to work on their physical therapy, they get to do stretching to pick up objects that I strategically place to challenge them.
I then go straight to my duties as dog walker, horse greeter and goodies distributor. Of course I do get work breaks and that is the subject of todays picture. As you can see I love plants and hide and seek. You should see Farmor hustle to find me. Well I guess even on my breaks I'm working as her physical activities director. Off to other adventures.

Hot Hot it's warm outside

Yes it has been very warm in Portola Valley, Ca. this week and I have had to consume more than my share of icy cold Popsicle treats. Grandpa Ted has been busy with other assignments so I'll have to apology for not posting at my normal time.

I have been busy doing all sorts of things this week other that eating Popsicles. I've been swimming in the pool and playing with the hose getting myself and the dogs all wet and very happy. I hope you enjoy my little video and I will try to be up and running normally next week. Little"G"
