Sleepover at Gramps and Grandma's

After my first birthday party we went to Grandma and Gramps' house. It was a suprise and boy were they happy. I wanted to stay up and play all night long but I was so tired and just wouldn't go to bed so were had a very long screaming match. But when I woke up the next morning Grandma got up bright and early with me at 6am and we played! Grandma let me get all her pots and pans out of the cabinet. I found 2 wooden spoons that I loved. I carried them around all weekend, I'm practicing to be a drummer. Sunday morning Gramps went to the store for a surprise for me, I couldn't wait to see what it was. Could you believe it was a blow up swimming pool for me? He got me a toy boat and a sand bucket too. Had lots of fun skinny dipping but boy was the water cold. Its getting to be hard for me to take naps at Grandma and Gramps' now, I just want to stay up and play, so mommy put me in my stroller and we took a walk in the house. How funny is that. But I liked it and I fell fast asleep until it was time to go home and see daddy.

Happy Birthday to you!

Went to mommy's friend's son's birthday party today at Little Gym. Had lots of fun watching the big boys play on the mats and blow up gyms. Got to play with balloons and snuck a few bites of chocolate ice cream.

Today mommy and I went to the coolest park I've ever seen. It was all for kids, they had 3 different playgrounds! Mommy met a new friend from a forum that she plays on while at work, shhh don't tell anybody I let her secret slip. Her friend Jamie was wanting to work on her photography portfolio so she followed us around and took a ton of pictures. I felt like a celebrity!

We stopped by the store on the way to the park and I got my very 1st balloon! It was so cool, I love balloons. The man at the store let me watch as he blew it up, its very exciting. I was so happy I started giggling and he gave it to me for free. I wanted to play with my red balloon all day.

Mommy thought I might want to try and perfect my walking skills, however I thought that the ground held lots more exciting things. I can walk all day at home, when am I ever going to see these strange weed things? Hmmm I wonder what they taste like?

There are so many curious things at the park!

Would you believe there was a hippo at this park! I was a little scared when mommy put me in its mouth , what if he decided he was hungry?

The hippo was very interesting, its teeth were as big as my head!

I had such a great time, mommy and I high-fived each other and practiced how to be Indians with our oh-oh-oh calls.

My favorite part was when I got to swing. This swing was much different than the swing at Grandma and Gramps' house but still just as fun. But boy do I have to watch out for mommy, she likes to tickle my feet when I get in these things!

It was really sunny out so I thought maybe I'd put on my hat for a little shade.

After the swing we sat down for a mini picnic and I got a bottle and some puffs. It was a great time to relax after all the excitement of the swing.

But of course I couldn't relax for too long, the ticklebug appeared and I couldn't get away!

It was a great day at the park and I can't wait to go back and bring daddy with me next time!

Alphabet Soup

Mommy is just so silly, today she said we were going to make alphabet soup! I didn't know what that was but it sounded yummy to me. Well first she said we had to fill the bathtub up with warm water, gosh we must be feeding a bunch of people! Then she added some bubble bath but called it chicken stock, I'm not so sure that was a great idea as the bubbles don't taste so great. Then she put the alphabet noodles in. (I know they were just a bunch of foam letters) And last of all she said we needed to add the chicken - I didn't think we had any chicken but then she scooped me up and stuck me in! Silly mommy I get it now, want a yellow noodle?

I was excited for my alphabet soup bath at first but then I got to thinking, what if she really is going to eat me? You're not going to eat me are you mommy?

I had to close my eyes when she poured more water on my head, she said it was a little salt & pepper to make sure I seasoned just right. She's really got me worried!

Maybe if I pucker my lips and look like I'm sour she won't eat me.

Phew, mommy didn't eat me. It really was just bath time, although I think I'd rather her stick to our splish splash takin' a bath routine instead of this alphabet soup scare.

9 month pictures

I've been out for just as long as I was in, or at least thats what mommy likes to say. We were a little late taking my 9 month professional pictures but thats what happens when you go to daycare and are sick alot. So I was finally feeling better on Mother's Day and mommy wanted to go get my pictures taken. I think they turned out pretty good, the lady at the store had a rainbow colored duster and she kept tickling my nose with it!
