Z shows off his new boots and underpants
The unders are just a trial run
"Boots" are worn nearly daily especially since he can put them on himself


At the pumpkin patch for Stella's bday

Z and the EGG take mom and dad as guests to LACMA


"bunning" (running)


"big head/tiny head" (Z likes to compare and contrast)


"Me too/Eddie (ezra) too"--For Z everything is better when they do it together

Z enjoys the food trucks at the abbott kinney festival


Walking home

Z enjoys making new friends and eating langos at the "garian pahty" (hungarian fest/party)

Slowly but surely Z adjusts to daycare and makes "frens"--sometimes he brings his trusty pals "blahblah" (pictured) or "ole"

Z isn't quite ready to go out on the ice rink yet but Emma and Nagypapa give him a taste

The first few weeks of "cool" are a little rough for Z
He has fun during the day after the first week or so of adjustment but sometimes still cries when he gets dropped off and picked up

A special treat for the first day of daycare at Annie's School

Z is very proud of his lunchbox
Today is not too rough since he is only at school on his own for an hour

Vehicles are among his many new words: Cah (car), boat, bus, bike, "gahbage" truck, wheel, go!, ride, strollie (stroller), diving (driving)

Serious silliness outside of MOCA

"shh" time to "seep"

Santa Barbara! Or "Barbra" as Z says

Visiting UCSB where mom and dad went to "cool"

Z and the EGG pay a visit to Ann Ceely's where Z will start daycare in September

Z is fiercely independent and tries to do everything on his own:
"No, Me!" "Me Do It" "Own!" are some of his earliest phrases

Z gets buried at mother's beach

Z's getting the hang of the potty, especially when he's "nudy boy"

"Pssshhh"--Z likes making sound effects and animal/monster noises:
"Rawr" "woof" "quack"

The whole family enjoys our visit to Blue Palms on Hollywood Blvd

"uh-oh eddie (ezra)"

"me baby"

Saying goodbye to Grandpa Ray

Z is very excited at the skateboard park event at the X Games! It makes him constantly move as he watches - a challenge to hold him in the bleachers



Grandma and Grandpa Watson pay a visit


The egg and Z now play together constantly
