Our Fun at Parker and Brady's House (04/20/08)

Reunited, at last (Jaden blog entry)
Well - it had been a long time since we had seen Parker, Brady, Aunt Kim, and Uncle Dave. It seemed like everyone was going through a vicious cycle of getting sick with no recovery in sight that lasted over a couple of months. Even the viruses were getting sick.

But, everyone finally got better, and so, we finally had a chance to visit them in Los Gatos. Wow - I had so much fun! For starters, I played tag, went down the slide, and shared snack time with Parker (who enjoyed my gfcf rice crackers). I even sneaked a gluten and dairy filled cheesy-poof when mommy & daddy weren't looking - my favorite!

The following video summarizes my visit, but also check out the x-wheeling segment below for the most fun of the day.




Taking it to the Big Kids (Gavin blog entry)
I also have a lot to say, but don't need to be as verbose as my big brother. I also had a fun time with Parker, Brady, Aunt Kim, and Uncle Dave, but the difference here is that Brady & I stepped it up a notch! If you want to watch the pathetic video above, go ahead - but, I guarantee you a much more action-packed ride in my following video:




X-Wheeling For All! (Jaden and Gavin blog entry)
This was easily our favorite event of the day - as you can see in the video below, we played extreme big wheeling (a.k.a 'x-wheeling') down a mini dirt hill.



Of course, daddy's video camera battery died before we began going down the outdoor steps, which represented a longer ramp filled with fun crash obstacles like wooden fences,and stacks of bricks. Too bad, since that was funny - especially as Uncle Dave and daddy rode the big wheel, and Daddy crashed a few times!


Not 'Circle Time' (Jaden blog entry)
There are times when everyone needs a little privacy - mommy prefers to sleep when I'm not jumping on her head, daddy prefers 5 minutes to inhale a few ice cream sandwiches, and, I even need to have some 'alone time' when I'm leaving a deposit in my diaper. Usually, I'll just tell everyone where to go until I'm done.

Speaking of leaving a deposit, Parker prefers to find privacy at a distant tree. Usually, Parker loves the camera, but during these moments, I think he's worried that the camera may add 10 pounds. To honor his request for privacy, I'm premiering the release of this never-before-seen footage to help the world understand when Parker wants privacy. I'm also releasing it to do my part in recognizing Earth Day.
