last week, koda taught himself a new trick — he learned to scale our 6 ft. fence all by himself! i couldn’t let the dog outdo me, so i taught myself some new tricks, too. i’ve just been waiting for the chance to show off my new skills. tonight was the night.
for some strange reason, mommy decided to put tonight’s dinner drink in a regular cup instead of my usual sippy cup. she held the straw up to my lips, expecting me to chew on the straw or just play with it (like i did when i first started using my sippy cup). but to her surprise, i drank my juice like a pro. that’s right — i sucked! mommy was so amazed because nobody had ever shown me how to use a straw before. she was celebrating by cheering and clapping… so i started clapping, too!
WHOA!!! now everyone was really excited and causing a commotion. i had been practicing clapping for many weeks and was unsuccessful up until tonight. mommy and daddy were sooo happy that i finally got the hang of it. i was happy, too – so happy, that i clapped throughout the rest of my dinner 
that’s two new tricks for me in one night. okay koda… show me what ya’ got!

Wow, impressive!!!! Now you can get one of the clap on, clap off sensors for your room to turn the lights on an off!
Or, you can applaud Koda when he learns how to leap over an 8ft fence! What is this blue chair that I keep seeing you in? And when did your hair get so long!? P.S. I love that you still have chubby, rolly arms!

Now you have to learn to blow! Daddy says it’s really fun…especially with milk! You can make a milk volcano if you blow through your straw into your milk!

@auntie barb: i want a clapper for my birthday! then, i can keep the lights on all the time and i’ll never have to go to sleep
the blue thing is my booster chair. since mommy, daddy, and gung-gung eat dinner at the coffee table, i pull up my booster chair and join them there. i guess you have been seeing it a lot because i have been eating a lot. maybe that’s why i still have my arm, leg, and neck rolls!
@logan: milk volcanoes sound fun! let’s practice so we can make a double eruption. does your daddy know how to make a milk waterfall? next time he drinks milk, just make him laugh and you’ll see
