On my birthday proper I was actually up in the Tetons in Wyoming! (I
was there for my first birthday as well). We were there for a wedding celebration of Amma's coworker; I enjoyed the music and parties. We also had a great trip taking the
Jackson Hole tram to the top of a cool mountain. We saw some
para-gliders taking off from the top (and saw them land at the bottom
too). Plus there was yummy ice cream on the Fourth of July and other
kids with which to play.
For birthday presents, my favorite was a baseball mitt, bat, and a few balls! Appa, Amma, Thambi and I also took the bus to Denver for my first Baseball game (Rockies!). I brought my mitt and watched some of the game, though my favorite part was seeing people swing and hit balls in the batting cages. I received a lot of other neat things as well, including a basketball, a cool book on trains, a rocket that you operate with water (and it shoots waaay up in the sky), magnets, other books, legos, and of course some trains and cars.
Playing with Thambi is lots of fun. We play at home, on the slide in our room, on a pretend train, on Mopy my big stuffed dog, or with big legos. I like to make him laugh.
My first au pair Nastja visited from Germany. It was great to see her again - I hadn't seen her since I was 15 months old, and even that was a short visit in Frankfurt (she took care of me from 3 months to 7 months). She was here for one week in July and we got to do a lot of fun things together. The first of which was to go on the Georgetown train, a favorite of mine! (I think she enjoyed the beautiful scenery in the mountains, the fun train trip, as well the mac-n-cheese for lunch.) She comes back for one week in August too.
We had a big birthday party for me and Thambi. Everyone was there. We celebrated in Martin Park with the playground right there. Appa, Ayyamma, and Chittappa cooked food for us. And Saori made cakes for me and Thambi. There were water guns to play with, and I only lost one balloon. Pretty awesome.
Check out the photo below with my helmet and spacepack on - I am all ready for takeoff! We visited the Museum of Nature and Science and I liked the space section a lot. My rocket that I mentioned earlier contributes to this fun exploration, as does Don when he tells us about space.
Thank you God for baseball, trams, friends, trains, Amma, Appa, and Thambi.
