The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Well my friends, my mom and dad have had me all over the East Coast over the last week or so.  A day in New York, a few days in Concord, a quick jaunt to Vermont, and a dash to Harrisburg.  It's been a lot of driving, and boy am I tired of sitting in my car seat!  On the plus side, I have been allowed as many graham crackers as I would like.  I particularly enjoy wiping the crumbs on my bunny blankies!

I'm sure you would love to see pictures from our adventures.  So would I!  My mom hasn't had a chance to get the pictures off the camera for me.  Hopefully she'll have a few minutes tomorrow when we finally arrive back home.  Hope you have had a joyous Christmas!  Happy New Year's Eve-Eve!

Bad Bash 2010

Who doesn't like a party?  I know I love them!  That's why I hosted one this weekend.

My parents always had a Christmas party every year before I was around.  I decided to keep the tradition alive.  I got my mom to decorate the house while I sent out the invites.  I got all dressed up for the occasion too, in a new red dress.  I think I looked quite fetching!  My good buddies Jackson and Danny stopped by, and a new friend, Emma, came to play too!  We had a great time, and really enjoyed the graham crackers and milk our moms gave us.

Save the date!  Bad Bash 2011 will be held on December 10th next year!

Pajama Day!

On Saturday, my mom declared it "Pajama Day."  We hung out in our jammies all day.  I like jammies.  They are comfy and flattering to my figure.  Dad had to work on Saturday, but Mom and I had fun without him.  We played this new game where Mom got all my toys all tidy in one corner, and then I went over and threw them around the room again.  We played it over and over!  What fun! 

But has anyone seen my Duplos this morning?  They seem to have gone missing after the last time I covered the carpet with every Duplo I could find.

Santa Claus is Coming to Town!

I'm not exactly sure what is going on, but my parents seem to be losing their marbles (what few they had left)!  Yesterday, they took me to a strange house and had me sit on the lap of a strange man.  He seemed jovial enough, but I wasn't too sure.  Santa asked if I wanted teeth for Christmas.  I smiled and showed him the eight I already have.  He said I probably don't need anymore, for Christmas at least!  I did get a cookie though, so if this "Santa" guy  keeps giving me treats, then I guess he's ok!  Plus, my parents just seemed so excited to see me with him.



 My parents got even sillier after meeting Santa, if you can believe it!  They took me out into the freezing, blustery wind to look at trees.  Then they pointed to one and some guys starting shoving it in the trunk of my mom's tiny car.  It gets better.  They brought the tree into the house.  My toys are completely displaced and confused.  I'm confused too!  Why is there a tree in the house??

Everyone has gone mad.  But you know what?  It's pretty fun.  Merry Christmas!

Gobble! Gobble!

Last week was a big deal. It was my first Thanksgiving! My mom, dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Aaron, Aunt Liz, Uncle Vin, Aunt Maria, Uncle Andy, Uncle Andy's friend and I all piled into an RV and drove to Nashville TN for some good old southern turkey. I am a very good navigator, so they were glad to have me along.

Aunt Jen had a special parking space just for us! I'm not sure who Eddie Griswold is though; I'm not sure he showed up.

Before eating massive amounts of Turkey, I made sure everyone got their exercise: a rousing game of football! I was the referee.  

Flag! Illegal contact on the offense!

My mom tried to get me to eat some turkey, but I wasn't a fan. Give me squash and cranberry sauce any day! Yum!

I like to eat in style.

The next day (after everyone woke up from their turkey naps) we went to the Nashville zoo! A lot of the animals were asleep becuase it was so cold, but we had a good time anyway. There was a fantastic jungle gym at the zoo that we explored for almost an hour. I didn't really like the big slide, but held it together far better than my mom. I don't think she'll be going down that slide again! We did get to see some animals, including some really neat fish!

This lizard thing kept sticking his tongue out at me! What a flirt!

After the zoo, my mom and dad went out with a bunch of the others on something called a party bus. I don't know. I had way more fun staying at home with my cousin Jameson and my Uncle Russell. Apparently, though, my crazy parents went to a bar (whatever that is) and rode a mechanical bull.

Dad didn't stay on the bull for long, but Mom was on for 1:09!

Even more shocking, I hear there were poles on the party bus. And those poles are meant for dancing! I prefer to hold onto a chair or table for my dancing, but I guess my mom enjoys a pole. She gets her best moves from me though. I am queen of the wiggle.

Um. Mom?

We all had a lot of fun in Tennessee. My cousin Jameson has some other awesome cousins, Laken and Lakota, who I enjoyed playing with very much. I hope to see all our family again very soon. But I might stay away from RV's for a while!
