Snow!

On Saturday, I played in the snow for the first time, yippee!

  First they tried to berry me in the stuff.

Then we went sliding across the top, I liked this the best.  Firth with daddy, then

  with mommy and then

with daddy again.

Meet Briella

On Friday we met Briella.  It was so tiny, even tinier than me!

Minnesota Christmas

Our next Christmas was in MN. It was cold there but my snow suit is cozy and Grandpa has the heat turned up to 77 - toasty!

I love Christmas lights...

especially the way they taste! (oops mom should have put the camera down a little faster on that one)

  We opened presents.  Dad open this one.

I got a wooden horse (above), a wooden train set, a truck rug, wash cloths, sun glasses, socks, a truck book, a hippo book, a peek-a-boo book, and

truck pajamas (which I modeled on my head).

Let the Christmases Begin

Mommy says I get lots of Christmases. My first Christmas was in CA, then I have 2 or maybe even 3 Christmases in MN and one in FL. Whatever this Christmas thing is I like it!  There are pretty lights everywhere and everyone is singing!

I opened presents and got a pounding set (above), play food that cuts, a cylinder puzzle, a hungry caterpillar puzzle, a ball and a radio flyer!  But the box said some assembly required.  So daddy and I played with the assembly for a longggg time!

Dad it goes this way.

We're almost done.  I have the last piece.

Hot digidety, I can do all over the house with this toy. (and he did!) (We'll add the video later, it's so cute!)

Early Holiday

Presents have started coming in the mail.  It's so fun, mommy and I open the box and out comes another box, filled with another toy! (I would have been happy with the boxes but the toys are like icing on the cake).

This is a fill and dump fish bowl from my friend Ria, thank you Ria!

First Steps

Wow!  I took my first steps last night!  (at the teen mobile cell phone store).  I saw a little girl I wanted to meet so I walked from the chair over to her.  Mommy and daddy were so surprised, just to make sure they saw me I did it two more times before we left the store.  Look out world... here I come!

Holiday Photos

Mommy and daddy took about 1,000 pictures of me this weekend trying to get the perfect holiday photo.  Here are the pictures that didn't make the cut.

Naked it cute, but not snarky naked.

So cute, but a little too much drool for Christmas.

Nothing says holidays like, "this tastes funny"

So close, If only I were looking at the camera.

Cute, but too sad for a Christmas Card.

This one is happier but I'm missing half a face.

The winner!

Feel better soon Nana Dot

Nana Dot had surgery yesterday.  I don't know what surgery is but because of it I got to play with band-aids!  So I am all for it!  Feel better soon Nana Dot.

  What's on my nose?Cool it's sticky! It won't come off!

A day at the vineyards

On Saturday we went wine tasting.  Okay, so mommy and daddy went wine tasting and I was along for the ride, literally. We took lots of fun family photos!

Toys that are not toys

Toys that are not toys are the best!  My favorites this week: silverware and boxes!

 

Airport Treats

On the way home from FL I got airport treats!

I had macaroni and cheese for the first time.  Later, I had a tummy ache.  No more mac-n-cheese for me (for a while anyway).

They had clouds for me to climb on.  I am roaring like a lion.  A cloud lion!

And I got to fly a plane!

Christmas Tree in FL

Did you know they have Christmas trees in FL?  They are much more fun that regular trees, you get to put stuff on them and then you put a bright star on top!  This year was my year, so I put the star on.

After decorating the tree we all sang "Rudolph the red nosed rain deer".  I sang too! And clapped!

Meeting My Cousin

In Florida, I met my cousin Stephanie.  I knew she was family right away and cuddled up close.

Thanks for the cuddles Steph!

The Beach!

On Saturday we went to the beach! 

The water was cold but...

the sun was warm.

I played in the sand, with daddy's glasses, and

on Grandma Great's shoulders.

We had so much fun!
