Whoa!!! Did you feel that?

Holy-moly, did you feel that? I sure did. I thought it was gas and my tummy was rumbling, but then I started hearing car alarms... Then the lights started to shake... Then the cupboards started to rattle... Then the big sliding door started to move. It was a EARTHQUAKE!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!

Actually, this was my second earthquake, but only the first one that I felt. It was a pretty good one too. According to the USGS Earthquake Center, this one checked in just 9 miles north of San Jose, CA, and at a magnitude of 5.6.

Anyhow, all is OK now. Everyone is fine and nothing broke, although mom and dad were a little freaked out. I think they said if they had to choose, they would rather go through a tornado than a big earthquake.

Keep it steady,

Boy, I've been busy

It sure has been a while since I've posted to my blog. Its not that I haven't been doing much, in fact its quite the opposite. I've been so busy I just haven't had the time. In the past 2 1/2 weeks I've:

1. Graduated to my next class
2. Went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium (Yeah, I'm a member)
3. and go jogging and play in the park with mommy and daddy.

Graduation: Because I walk around not (actually, its my preferred method of mobilization) I have graduated to my next class. At first, I didn't like it (I'm just like my cousin Tessa, I don't like change), with all the new care takers, new room, and some new kids. I hated it. But now I like it. We all get to run around and play. And we even get to take our nap on our own little nap-cots!!! It is very fun.

Monterey Bay Aquarium: Yep, I'm a member now. I can come and go as often as I want. Mommy and Daddy took me there for my first time about a week ago, and I saw all kinds of neat stuff. I saw sting-rays (and touched them too), abalone, crabs, otters, fish, fish, and more fish, and my favorite of them all, the jelly fish. I even saw daddy's favorite fish of all; carcharodon carcarius. A.K.A. The Great White Shark (for you Jaws fans, we call him Bruce). Yeah, they have one there, but its a baby. Say Cheese!!!

Running and playing in the park: Daddy finally decided to get off his lazy but and getting back into shape. He said that "Round" doesn't count as being a shape. So we've been jogging around the neighborhood lately. He takes me to the park and I run around and play in the field, swing on the swing, and go down the curly slide. I have a lot of fun. In fact, sometimes I don't want to go home so I scream and yell and make all kinds of noise. Sometimes I think people wonder if I am being abducted. LOL!!!

I know mommy and daddy are busy too, but they promise to get some pictures up on our website for all of you to see.

Until next time America!!!
