I got a haircut!!!!

I got my first haircut on Saturday! I got to sit in a car, watch Elmo, and eat cookies while the lady cut my hair.

Mommy got her hair done on Saturday, too!

On Sunday, I helped Mommy and Daddy work in the yard.

Later, I decided that it was time to work out, so I tried to get all set up to exercise on the Wii. You're supposed to put this band on your leg to hold the wii remote!

Geen Woom!

I have a new room! Mommy and (mostly) Daddy worked to paint my new room a couple weeks ago. This is what it looked like after they finished painting:

Then, today my new "big girl" furniture arrived! I was so excited. I helped Pop open up one of the boxes:

Grampa and Daddy moved the HUGE bed out (my new room was the guest room until today):

Grammy and I helped hold the box down while Pop pulled out the nightstand:

Here is my new dresser:

My new closet:

My new bed:

I even took my nap in my new bed today! Mommy and Daddy tried to put me in the baby bed, but I was NOT happy about it, and kept saying, "Geen woom!!!! Geen woom!!!" so they let me sleep in my new geen woom. Then tonight I got them to let me go to sleep in my new room. We'll see how it goes!

Jumpy Fun Movie

I am so glad Mommy didn't have to go to work today!

We went to Jumptoons (a fun jumpy place) with Aunt Kat.

It was so much fun.

Mommy decided to try out iMovie on her computer, and she made this movie.

I hope you like it.

P.S. Mommy says that she apologizes that the videos were all taken on her iphone,

so they're too tall and skinny.

Winter Fun

I have been having fun this winter. By the way, I LOVE SNOW!!! I would have stayed outside to play in the snow for hours if Mommy and Daddy didn't make me come back inside today. Here are some things I've been doing:

Today I played in the snow. (More snow pictures at the bottom of this post.)

We went shopping for my big girl furniture in January. I sat in a comfy chair and chatted with friends while Mommy and Daddy looked at the furniture.

Last Friday, I went to the Valentine's Dance at Mommy's school. I had fun dancing with the big kids.

Here I am, getting ready to go out in the snow!

At first, I was afraid to walk or move in the snow.

But, then I decided it would be fun to make a snowman!

Daddy was looking for sticks for my snowman's arms, and he started sliding down the driveway. He couldn't stop! Mommy and I were laughing at him.

My snowman and me!

He's kind of tiny ... I guess I need to take snowman lessons from Aunt Kat and Uncle Matthew! (You should have seen their 10 foot tall snowman from their trip to Illinois!)

What a fun day! I love SNOW and I love winter!

One...Two...Three....

Over the break, Mommy and Daddy took me to the Children's Museum. I had been there before, during the summer, but I was older and able to do more this time and I really had a lot of fun!

I had fun on New Years Eve with some of my favorite people!

I like to work on my computer with Mommy.

Hopefully my video is working now. I know it was working on Tuesday night, but I am not sure what happened to it. So, hopefully I have fixed it and you can see me count to ten.

See ya next time!

Christmas 2009

'Twas the Monday before Christmas when I went to Grammy and Grampa's house.

I rode on a bike that was a giraffe, not a mouse.

I had lots of fun during the days and slept well at night.

Soon I came home to celebrate Christmas Eve night.

We went to church, then to visit my Grandma's.

Later we came home and I opened a present - pajamas!

I helped Mommy with the cookies she wanted to bake.

Then put them out for Santa to take.

While I slept at night, that big red guy came.

He really lived up to all of his fame.

Soon the sun came up and I was ready to go.

I was so surprised and I yelled out, "Whoa!"

A kitchen, a car, a baby doll, and Tag, Jr. that reads to me.

Some books, Elmo, and play-doh all left under the tree.

I oohed, I aahed, and squealed with delight.

Toys to the left, and toys to the right!

I took my time and tried to play with each one.

I climbed in my car and tried to bring with me all the fun.

I worked in my kitchen to cook some good food.

I wore my chef's apron and hat. Don't I look ... good?

A hat for a chef? Or a pilgrim child?

Well I guess it is just really versatile.

I played and I played as the morning went by.

I even worked on my computer from a favorite show - Super Why!

Later that morning my grandparents came to see,

All of the fun that was left under my tree.

After a while it was time to go in the car,

To Honey and Pop's house ... it wasn't too far.

We ate lunch and then I got even more new toys.

Then I played with my shopping cart, ate pretend food, tried on clothes and made lots of noise.

Honey and Pop gave me a new tricycle, shiny and bright.

I got on to try it out but my face showed my fright.

Soon I went home to play some more.

I showed my new toys to each person as they walked in the door.

On Saturday we got up early to go to Locust Grove,

to see lots of family whom I really do love. :)

We ate lunch, opened presents, and played lots of games.

This family really is as fun as everyone claims!

Later I played dress up with Kerry's new rockstar dress and wig.

I held up the microphone, sang, and did a little jig.

We played outside even though it was cold.

We love to play football in the middle of the road.

I didn't play football, I just drove my car up and back.

Don't worry, I didn't go far ... I stayed in the cul-de-sac.

On Sunday, the Duncan family came over to have waffles and open presents again.

I got to spend time with Grammy, Grampa, Thomas, Mama Thelma, Matthew, and Katherine.

Daddy and Matthew got busy with a toy to build.

It was a station to take care of my babies (about which I was thrilled)!

What do you do when all the presents are gone?

You play in a box from which a present was withdrawn!

Aunt Katherine and I played in a box (with my baby of course!)

Who knew that an empty box could be such an excitement-source!

I've told all that I have to tell about my Christmas week.

I hope that you don't think from my poem I am a geek...

And so I yell, as I drive out of here,

"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Happy New Year!!!"
