Mommy & Me - Take Two!

Grandpa and Daddy had their own little adventure on Christmas Day trying to fix my train table. While they were out and about, Mommy tried to keep me occupied. Here we are sharing a silly moment...



Enjoying my toys...

After spending all morning opening my presents, I finally got to the fun part - PLAYING!

My train table!

Was this present for me...or Daddy?

Ummm, let's just say Daddy had a little boo-boo with the train table Christmas morning....
hehehe - we love you Daddy!

Playing with my doggy doctor playdough set...
Playing my fishing game - I'm really good!
Mommy redecorated the basement to make room for my new toys.
I have my own little arts and crafts area. Mommy gave me the empty wrapping paper rolls that Santa left behind...
Taking my time...
Family picture time...
With Grandpa too!

NO more pictures! Let me PLAY!

All these - FOR ME!?

The night before Christmas I wrote a note to Santa and put out milk and cookies for him. I insisted on chocolate milk - that's the good stuff! I was so excited, it took me awhile to fall asleep in my bed. The next morning I woke up and my eyes got so big when I walked into the living room! Look at all my presents! I must had been extra good this year!

Where do I start?!

Opening my first Christmas present very patiently...

This is a BIG one! It was a basketball hoop from Grandpa!

This one looks fun!

HAPPY FEET! I love penguins!

A lego table too!

My BIGGEST present - My train table! I LOVE IT!


For Christmas this year I also got some nice clothes, a laptop computer, playdough toys, and lots of stocking stuffers! I can't stop playing with all my news toys! Thank you Santa!!!

A little late with some snow pictures...

Well, we didn't have any snow for Christmas but we did a couple weeks before! Here are some pictures taken on another one of our snow days this winter....it was all gone by Christmas!

Our deck was deep!
Our dogcicles, Jessi and Zeb.
"What are you starin' at? Let me in!"
Across our street...
Mommy left me alone to go finish folding laundry. To her surprise, I can successfully unscrew the lids to my paints now - SURPRISE MOMMY my fine motor skills are improving!
Making sure that I have everything good and covered...I like to be thorough!

Happy Holidays!

It is almost Christmas - one more day! I am so excited. We made homemade cookies for Santa and I can't wait to leave him some on a plate with a glass of milk tonight! Do you think he will come to see me?! I hope so! We will be spending Christmas at home this year. We will be traveling to Texas very soon to go see Grandma and PawPaw! I'm so excited.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Everyone!

Snow day...

So what do we do on snow days?

Well, Mommy and I made homemade m&m cookies - yum! Here are some pictures of me coloring inside our warm house. Notice I missed my paper with my marker - oops! Oh, and I think if you look at the table there might be some evidence of what I was just eating ;)

What are you laughing at?

Whatever it is! I think it is funny too! (notice my cookie crumbs - yum!)
Daddy keeps me amused by playing silly tricks on me too. The other night as we were getting ready for bed Daddy came in the room as a Care Bear. It was so funny. Mommy says she is sorry the lighting is bad but they were dimmed low because I was getting ready for night-night.

In case anyone forgot, I LOVE Care Bears. Here is a picture of my room, and believe it or not, this is not all of them! Here is a picture of our living room...mostly decorated for me :)

Our kitchen...where I eat those yummy cookies!
We aren't finished with our Christmas tree yet. But we are getting there! :)

It's white outside!

It's hard to believe just last week Mommy and I were at the park in 60 degree weather. Mr. Winter has finally find us and it is COLD with lots of snow!

Here is some video of me making my first snow angels:

Backyard...


Deck....Daddy better get that grill in the garage!

Front yard....looking towards our neighbors.


Mommy said this is just the start of it! WOW! I'm excited because I like snow!

Mommy and Me...

We're a pretty good team. She drives me a little crazy sometimes...always making me eat my veggies, washing my perfectly dirty hands, and combing my crazy curls...but all in all, we have a good time together and I am so glad I get to stay at home with my mom everyday. A few days ago it was 62 degrees out! That is rare for winter in Michigan! Mommy and me took advantage of the nice weather and walked to the park. Here are some pictures of us playing...







Capturing the moment...

I love to swing. You would think that with all my energy all I would want to do is use my little legs to run, climb, and play. When I get to the park, I head to the swing first. I like the way I gentle sway back and forth and my hair tickles my face. Mommy always gives me "under doggies" and that makes me giggle. Here is me and my favorite swing...
