Chore #5.

I’ve tried many, many times to walk Bossie, but have always ran into hurdles. First, the handle of the leash would be too big for me to hold. Then, I couldn’t hold the handle for a long time because it was too heavy for my little hands. Then, I didn’t understand that I had walk in order for Bossie to follow me. Then, I didn’t realize that I had to walk straight rather than in circles.

This Sunday, I finally mastered the art of walking Bossie. See me in action:

I walked all the way down the Sandburg Street hill to Aunt Jo’s house and then walked all the way home. I even started to huff and puff walking uphill. It was quite a work-out.

Adventures at Aunt Holly’s Place

2011-03-11-philly-moriomoto

Thanks to Uncle Wade for taking these cool pictures of me talking on the iPhone with the rest of my “Chinese mafia boys.”

(Caption clockwise from center top photo to last photo in middle center)

“Yo! You there? It’s the Bobes.”

“Um, are you gonna pick up or what? I’m losing my patience with you.”

“So, when am I gonna get my money?” (curling my lip)

“I’ll give you 30 seconds to explain yourself.”

“It sounds like baloney to me.”

“What? What do you mean you don’t have the money? I want the money in a suitcase given to my boys in 30 minutes at the playground or else heads will roll.” (talking with mouth full)

We hung out at Aunt Holly’s place in Philly this past Saturday before dinner at Morimoto. I don’t know what the big fuss was over Morimoto, but chilling at Aunt Holly’s place was the highlight of my weekend.

Immediately upon my arrival, I got confused and asked for the kitty cat stuffed animal I usually play with at YiMa’s house.  Mommy had to gently remind me that I wasn’t at YiMa’s house but at Aunt Holly’s house.   Aunt Holly was so nice and brough out her big collection of stuffed animals for me.  I had lots of fun arranging them on the couch.  I especially loved sitting next to Uncle Dedo and this giant bunny rabbit:

Aunt Holly & Uncle Dedo were also nice enough to share their Starburst gummies with me.  Once I saw them, there was no hiding them — I was gonna get my share of gummies! 

Once Aunt Ellie showed up, the real party started.  Aunt Ellie brought me eight Japanese fish wind chimes after she caught wind (no pun intended) that I love fish.  Mommy will somehow hang them in my room so that I can enjoy them.  She also treated us to lunch at Paesano’s Restaurant (famous for winning “Throwdown with Bobby Flay”) and they were indeed some pretty amazing sandwiches.

While Aunt Holly, Mommy & Daddy took me out on a walk along the river next to Aunt Holly’s house, Uncle Wade and Uncle Dedo had their usual Scrabble showdown.  Once I learn my ABC’s, watch out my “uncas,” because I’ll beat you both!
