Dinosaur Logic

Myron: Mama, I’m a tyrannosaurus rex.

Mama: Why are you a tyrannosaurus rex?

Myron: Because I like meat!

Dada is home!

Dada returned from Austria on Thursday night.  I was so happy to see him.

On Friday we had a special day just the two of us.  We went to the Aerospace Museum!  I loved it!

A jet engine!

Compliment

Mama: Myron say thank you, she gave you a compliment?

Myron (looking around): Where’s the compliment?

Butt Funny

Myron has now reach the stage in development when the word ‘butt’ is funny.  “Mama you smell like butt” (laugh), “This brontosaurs is named butt” (laugh), “For dinner I want butt” (laugh).   I don’t think mama is ready for butt funny yet :) 

New Fish

We have settled back into a semi-normal post holiday routine.  Just in time for Dada to take his first trip to Austria for work.  Myron is missing him… asking almost daily…”If I eat my dinner, will dada come home.” 

Today we picked up three new fish, one to eat the snails (a clown loach) and two to clean the glass.  Myron named the ‘snail eating fish’ “Chloe” and the the glass cleaners “Cucumber” and “Salty”  (I guess he was hungry at the time). 

New Years Eve 2010

We started New Year’s Eve with present opening… everyone kept saying it was Christmas… the FL calendar must be different :)

My favorite in this round was a cement mixer!

Then we went out for brunch and went to the beach!

Kiki and I played together… giggled together… and

Kayaked!

Dada and I were great at paddling… but for some reason Mama and Dada were not as in sync.  :S We kayaked over to honeymoon island and I had fun running around the sand dunes.  I didn’t read the sign that said don’t run in the sand burr bushes… I ran in (with no shoes on) and cried until Mama ran in (with no shoes on) and then she cried too. 

We stayed up late… made lots of noise at midnight and then crashed from a long fun day.

Christmas 2010

I am a little behind but I’ll start at the beginning. My excitement for Christmas started with the tree and grew with….

cookie baking… and snowing…yes, snowing… I made it snow all over the kitchen…

and on Dada’s shoes.  

Then we started packing for our big trip… I’m ready! But before we leave… it’s time for holiday music, random left-over food in the frig and presents!

My favorite presents (for this round) were the fire truck shirt and …

a digger!

We made the big hop to MN and our first stop… “Great Stender’s house”… and yes this is a picture of Erin, Jared, and I look (and smiling) for the camera – amazing!

The next day we made time for snow!

A toddler’s work is never done.

The next morning we did more presents!  This time my favorite was the “real fire truck”. 

We ended the day at Ivan’s house… I am getting tired just telling this story… and we’re not even done. Next we visit with Ria and Liam and then we were off to FL.

Our FL trip started with presents… I am really liking this pattern (airplane – presents, airplane – presents)

This present was a larger than life… digger… I loved it! (Thanks GG)

Kiki enjoyed new trucks too…

The next day we found a park… I drove the jeep…

and my digger of course!
