Snapshots from October



I almost forgot, we also went to "Foamhenge" when we went camping. Mommy and Daddy thought it was the funniest thing, I don't get it. I think sneezing and spit bubbles are funnier.

Snapshots from October

October was Bootacular! I love "Boo" and all that comes with it! I dressed up as a bumble bee and we went to parties where everyone else was all dressed up. I saw Superman, rhinos, ladybugs, ducks, doggies (always near and dear to my heart), scary guys, skeletons, all kinds of things! It was great. Then we went to a pumpkin patch, that was o-k, but I was angry because I didn't get to ride the pony. We went camping and that was the most awesome thing I have ever done! There was so much "boo" and I even placed as a finalist in the costume contest!!!Triplet ducks beat me out. And as if it couldn't get any better, I went to other people's houses and knocked on the door and they came out and gave me "candy" Mommy took it right away and said I wouldn't like it-she better eat it-tastes like broccoli.







I'm back


My Mommy is crazy. You might wonder what I have been up to, well Mommy has been crazy at work designing onesies and starting a "cottage industry". She has me involved now, modeling her wears. Because of her new fascination of all things handmade, she never has time for this BLOG anymore-she's to busy making things. But, I have been creating some pretty amazing work myself. I can now jump, a feat that has taken weeks in the making. I also am very good at climbing on the furniture, especially standing on chairs-my favorite thing to do. I have mastered some new words, my favorite being "helffff" which I say when I want someone to "helff me" get something that I probably should not have which beyond my reach. I also learned about something called "the temper tantrum". This is when you want something, say a bright red, new Elmo doll, and your Mommy or Daddy said no. You can do two things, they way I see it: 1) do nothing, or 2) scream loudly and for extra affect, throw yourself down on the ground and kick and pound your fists. It really gets some attention and you can see Mommy and Daddy all stressed out. However, I am not so sure if it works because I didn't get that red Elmo, but I did get out of that stupid store. Maybe I'll try again? I am also learning something they call, "table manners". After I threw my grilled cheese in the restaurant, and practically took someone's eye out, Daddy said it was time soon enough to eat like a cilvilized human being. Now, I am getting the hang of "table manners" by not throwing my food. However, I freaked when Mommy said that another part of table manners was not spitting already chewed food out when I rather not eat it anymore, or not puting my rigatonis in my ears. Mommy said Rome wasn't built in a day, so I guess that means "Table manners" aren't either.

I Love Water!



Mommy drug me to the mall today. I don't particulary like the mall because I have to sit in my stroller, Mommy doesn't like me to run free. However, for a treat we went outside and there was water shooting out of the ground! How cool!!

Planes, Trains, and RVs

During our visit to Uncle Steve's and Aunt Yvette's in Salt Lake City, we took and RV to Zion National Park. We had a great time-here are some of the highlights...








Lou


I had to travel all the way to Utah for the experience, but I finally was able to have a dog of my own for a week! My dog, Lou is fantastic-she even loves Elmo as much as I do!

Shoe Shopping



Today, Mommy and Gram took me for my first shoe shopping experience. Mommy said one day I'll be begging to go shoe shopping, but that wasn't the case today. It was very scary especially when the lady pulled out that shiny metal shoe and made me put my foot in it. I cried, I was so scared. Mommy thought that it was silly to cry because it doesn't hurt to get your feet measured. What she didn't understand was that I was crying because I was afraid the lady would say that I have big feet. I don't want big monster feet and I'm afraid they might be-just look at them in my new shoes. On the other hand, I just love my new shoes! They have pretty hearts on the strap. I want to wear them everyday!

The chosen shoes!

You Look Marvelous!



Mommy gave me some new beads. I love them! I have three strands: one white, one pink, and one red. I wear them all the time, even when I eat my rice cakes. Like I always say, why save your fancy jewels just for special occasions? Everyday is special when you are wearing fancy beads!

Walkin' The Dog

This is me and my doggie, Spot. I really dig walking him around the house. Daddy says that this is the closest I am going to get to having my own dog. I wonder what he means? Isn't Spot my Doggie?

What is the Attention Span of an Almost 15 Month Old?(20 minutes today)

Mommy takes me to storytime at the library every week. I love the library, not because of the storytime so much, but because it is great fun to run through the book shelves. It's a great game. Usually, we go for the first part of story time (maybe one story and a song), and then I just can't take it anymore. I need to be free and run through the library, so I start misbehaving and then we leave the story time and run through the library. Today, I rather enjoyed storytime, I can now see why all of those kids stay put and listen. I made it through two stories (One of which was Goodnight Gorilla-my fav!), two flannel boards (one of which was Brown Bear, Brown Bear, what do you see? Another one of my staples!), and of course two songs. It's too bad that the lady said it was the last story time for over a month-until the fall.

1 + 2 = 3

Let me explain: A bruise from falling flat on my forehead (1) + a cold, as evidenced by my runny nose (2) = my very first snowcone (3)!!!! Math rocks!

Snapshots from The Outer Banks









In July, we went to the ocean for a week. I had a great time and I especially enjoyed the ocean water. But really the best part of the week was my cousin, Jesse! He is the coolest!
