Home sick with my Mama....

Well...we have already read every book in the house....

22 mos....I'm closing in on 2 years old!

I know it's been a long time. I've been really busy. I have just had a lot going on. I have had turkey and baths with my cousins. I played at the beach with Nana and Papaw and took a plane there with my mama and dada. I had a really great Christmas and have lots of fun toys. Probably love my mower and play-doh the best but I hope I get to use my sled and snow pants this year. Some of my specialities right now, are calling my mama "Trish" and making her giggle. Running from my bedroom into my parents room and jumping up on the bed - "1 more tyme- Peas!!!!" I love quackers and nilk while sitting on the floor of the kitchen with my dad. I love little cars and trucks and I can do puzzles all day long. This past week I got sick with strep throat and an ear infection, but totally got my parents doing all kind of crazy stuff to have me swallow the "medcine". I feel a whole lot better now --good thing because I'm ready to play with my dada who is home from skiing. So here's a couple of pictures from these last few months. I got my hair buzzed and Papaw says I'm about ready for another one...I can also put my shoes on all by myself. Mom says they aren't on the right feet but they feel like they are.

I've also just had a tough month helping my mama. We lost Gigi right before Christmas to heaven. She was wonderful and we had lots of fun together riding her tractors and feeding ducks; but my Mama really loved her. She gets pretty sad, but I can usually cheer her up. I can get my socks and shoes off everytime I'm in the car with her and throw them up to her in the front seat, and even hit the dashboard sometimes. My mama is getting better but I'm glad we have an extra special angel up there watching out for us, because I can get into some pickles sometimes. We love our Gigi--she was 90 years older than me....wow! See you soon, I'll try to be better this year about keeping up on all my stuff! Happy 2012.

18 mos. gone, I'm on to bigger and better things!

Well my 18 mos has ended.  I'm onward towards 2 now.  Things are changing all the time.  I still love playing outside and I don't care what the temperature is.  My dada now pushes me down the roller coaster and I'm as close to the fence as I can get.  Pretty soon I'll have to climb over that thing.  Kind of like my bed, I can climb out of it now...but it's not as soft as the leaves at the bottom of the roller coaster.  I saw lots of little beds at IKEA today and I really liked those, hope I get one soon.  I had a great Halloween.  My dad took me out in my new wagon, from Gigi, and we got lots of candy.  I love those red fisheys--they are way better than the goldfish crackers (but I love those too).
More things I love to do:  I love to dig, man do I love to dig, and I love to rake and I love diggers and I love to watch my dad mow and I also love to do puzzles and watch firetrucks and ambulances.   

18 mos old!  And wow....I'm having a ball, life just keeps getting better and better.  I love raking, sweeping with the "boom" in the garage, digging in the dirt and in the "box, my new sandbox.  I love
quackers and eat way too many of them!  I love my Uncle Mark, probably the best right now, but my mom gets mad b/c I always lift up my shirt to show off my belly--he taught me that shirts are for jerks, I can't say it yet, but I'll get it!  If something is outside, then I'm there.  There are diggers outside my house everyday and I love them!  I like to race my mama and dad and say "Ready, set, go!"  I can count to ten, but two and nine are my favorite numbers.  I can climb up on beds all by myself and I'm perfecting a somersault once I get there.  :)  My cousins are very entertaining and I love my grandparents and Gigi a lot.  They get lots of hugs and kisses. 

Oh yea...I'm fasinated with windmills and deer.  I wish my dad could get me both...

My new roller coaster....

My sitter Betsy thought I would really enjoy this roller coaster and she knows me TOO well, I love it! It is a great addition to my backyard. Mama had it in our house for a few days but Dad thought it was WAY to dangerous, so out it went, and out I go to ride it! My mom went back to school yesterday and so I am back playing with all my fellas at Betsy's. It is so fun I didn't nap the first day and was asleep by 7:20 that night--it was really fun!

Summertime!!!

A month with lots of cousin TIME!

Been a pretty good summer. This is my mom's last week home with me. I've become extremely attached to her and since last week, really prefer her over most others. Oh well...all good things must come to an end and I'm back with my boys at Betsy's on Thursday, bigger and better and ready to HANG! They aren't going to believe how fast I can run!

Sarah Jane is 2 and she is kind enough to share most things with me, including blowing out her birthday candles. She and I played outside with my dad a lot that day, she is a good buddy. THEN, just a few days later we all went swimming at "Michael Jackson's Cincinnati Estate"....or somewhere like that. It was the coolest pool we had ever seen and Tom and I played in the sprinklers on the side of the pool. My mom and I went down the water slide and Uncle Patrick helped me at the end. It was really big and Aunt Emmy was very afraid--but NOT ME! I also went to the zoo with those guys, my cousin Tom knows everything--I have never been on a merry-go-around before and he showed me just what to do!

It's been a rough month too. My dad didn't see my little fingers and we had to make a trip to the Emergency Room. We all wore heavy gowns and they took pictures of my little fingers, but everthing was fine. Just swollen and different colors. My Dad and I both screamed a lot! He's been a lot more careful around our doors since....

Yesterday my Nana and Papaw and Gigi came over for lunch and we did lots of playing. I have a new roller coaster in my backyard so I had to show them how fast it is. Hopefully my cousin Freeman will be here soon so I can show him how it works. It's been pretty nice outside, so I'm out there A LOT! Gotta get some lunch....
