Scariest Place on Earth

 Today Uncle and Auntie picked me up from school and took me to Disneyland!  I've been talking about Disneyland a lot and I was so excited when I woke up from my nap and saw Auntie and Uncle at my school.  I ran through the Disney parking lot and was so excited to see Donald Duck's pictures on the signs.  It was so much fun until they tried to get me on some rides.  Apparently, I've been on these rides before, but I don't remember.  I'll I know is that it's scary.   
Rides are scary. 
Buzz ride - scary, Dumbo - Scary, Carousel - Scary.  
Even going in the Princess Castle was scary.
Toon Town - Awesome!
I did have a great time, I just didn't care much for the rides.  I heard Uncle tell mommy that I could have ran around between the parks and I would have been just as happy.  Mommy's frugal, so she likes this idea.  Anyhow, it was the best day ever.  Thank you Auntie Julie and Uncle William.  I love you!

Mini Vacation


My family
The last weekend of September, we went on a little vacation to the Lawrence Welk Resort in Escondido.  On Saturday, we went to the Wild Animal Park.  It was lots of fun.  I especially loved the tram ride where we got to see all the animals.  We also went to the pool where they had an amazing sprinkler play area.  Daddy barbequed and we had lots of family time.

Pumpkin Patch

Mommy and Daddy took Ollie and I to the Irvine Park Pumpkin Patch yesterday.  We had a blast!  I rode a pony, went on the train, and ran around pumpkins.  Mommy told me to pick any pumpkin I wanted, but then when she saw how expensive they were, she told me we'd get one somewhere else {thanks mommy}.  No worries, who needs a $20 pumpkin anyway?  Mommy spent the entire time taking pictures, and if you know me, I'm NOT a fan of pictures, but I'm so cute she managed to get some good ones anyway. 
I loved riding the horsey!

Ollie's 7th Month Update

 My brother is getting so big...actually, he's always been big, but he's definitely getting bigger.  This month he weighed in at 25lbs!  He's the happiest boy ever and is constantly laughing, drooling, and making funny sounds with his mouth.  Earlier this month the doctor thought his noisy breathing was asthma, but after going to a specialist, they decided he's just a noisy breather.  He must have a really strong immune system because he's never been sick and I've been sick a few times.  The week he turned 7 months his two front teeth came through.  Right now the other two top teeth are coming through.  We think he'll have 6 teeth in a few more weeks.  He's trying really hard to crawl, but isn't quite strong enough to lift himself off the floor.  He sleeps 11 hours every night.  He's perfect {related to me}.  I love him a lot.  Here are some pictures of him!
