today i went to a picnic with mommy and daddy. there were so many different and yummy foods for me to eat. i really liked the pita bread, hummus and cantaloupe. i did not like the blueberries - too tart!

new home

we are now living in a new home. it is nice! i have lots of space to run around and play in. my mommy and daddy says it is only temporary. i am not sure what that means. they tell me that we are moving soon to another home in a different city.
