September Catch-up

It's October, which means Mommy's back to work and I'm back to school. The last week of vacation, we did a lot of fun things. Bubbe came to visit and we went to Pretend City. It was so much fun. Mommy wanted to takes lots of pictures, but she spent most time trying to catch me as I ran all around. On the other days, we went to the park early in the morning because it was so hot during the day. I love the park!.

Fire! Fire!

Water play area...my favorite!  Mommy's least favorite

I wish I could color on the glass at home

I love to dance on the stage!

Static doesn't do much for my hair style

Auntie Dianna

In September, Auntie Dianna came to see me and Mommy!  I got to spend a few days with her and it was so nice!  Then Mommy and Dianna left for a few days and left me with Daddy.  It's okay, Daddy and I had a great time!

My Day



On a typical day, I do so much! I'm the busiest little girl around. I thought I'd share some of the things I do throughout the day. 

My School Bulletin Board.  Can you find me?



Here is me and my boyfriend Bo settling a little dispute over who will sit in the Toy Story Chair.



I won.  Here are my other friends during circle time where we read books and sing songs



This is our baby...we're having a little dispute over him too.



When I'm at home, I love to read books!

I really love to color. I have crayons, markers and paints.  Mommy set up a little art table for me.

My play tent.

Everyday I like to swing outside.

Time for dinner!  I'm a pro at using a fork.

Yummy!

I love taking baths!  I splash in the water.

Getting ready for bed.  Mommy or Daddy changes my diaper, puts my pjs on, and then I brush my teeth.

Finally, I get 2 books read to me before I lay in my crib and fall asleep.  Night night!

Pictures!

Mommy has had a lot of fun with her new camera.  As you can tell, she loves taking pictures of me.  Enjoy!

I'm Gonna Be a Big Sister!

It's true!  Mommy and Daddy think I turned out so great, they just had to have another.  I'm not sure if I should be happy or cry, but everyone else is sure excited about it.  The baby is due March 10th and he or she better not come too early and arrive on MY 2nd birthday...Feb 23rd.  Although, Mommy's bday is March 4th and Daddy's bday is March 7th so baby should hopefully arrive on any day other then those.  Oh yeah...Izzy's birthday is March 14th too.  Looks like our whole family will be Pisces...except for Lucy, which makes sense if you know her.

We're hopefully finding out next week if I'll have a little sister or brother.  Daddy thinks the baby will be a girl and mommy has no idea...doesn't matter to me.  Either way, I'm the boss and everything is mine.

me...with dirt on my face

"Are you kidding me guys... Another one of those?"

"Oh dear...how will I ever get away from 2 kids, I'm scared"

18 Month Dr. Visit

Trying to call someone to get me out of here.

Can you believe it?  I'm such a big girl.  I turned 18 months on the 23rd and today was my wellness visit.  I was excited to show my doctor all the things I can do.  She quickly learned how much I can talk as the first thing I said when she came in the room was, "no."  I kept saying it throughout the check-up but unfortunately she didn't get the clue.  She was impressed with my 30-40 word vocabulary, ability to run and climb, and follow simple directions.  She said I was perfect!  Mommy and daddy knew this all along, but it was nice to hear it from a professional.  

Waiting for them to call my name

Giving the little bird a hug

Some of my favorite words:  no, mommy, daddy, dog, ball, mine, milk, night night, uh-oh, oh no!, cow, blue, up, all done, help, bye bye, bubble, duck, Elmo, movie, ta da!, baby, Bo, bib, please, Uncle, and  Auntie.  I can even say the letters in my name...although the M is my favorite.

I heard the doctor telling mommy it was time to take away my paci at bedtime.  Mommy already took it away during the day AND at nap time and I'm not sure how I'll do without it at night.  This weekend mommy is going to cut the tips off all my pacifiers and cross her fingers that I remain a perfect sleeper.
