January Update
This week when I got to spend the night with Gram and Papa I helped Gram make waffles for breakfast. She let me wear a little apron with a princess on it. I beat the eggs, stirred the batter, waited for the waffles to cook in the waffle maker and finally got to eat them. It was quite a process, but totally worth it!
Uncle Buddy came by after I had waffles and he held me way up high. I’m SOOOOO big!
Cleaning is something that I love to spend time doing. Every time Mommy gets the wipes out to change Liam’s diaper, I want a wipe too, to clean stuff. Gram was squirting the mirrors at our house today, so I thought I’d help her out a little. Mommy said she was going to hire me full-time!
Now that my hair is longer, I’ve found that I can twirl it in my fingers. Grandma Sue said that when Gram was a little girl she used to do do that all the time.
Our family took a trip to Arizona for the Doulos Board meeting. I was going to stay home with Aunt Stacey, but Mommy and Daddy decided they’d miss me too much, so I came with them. Liam is getting to be such a big boy. One of his favorite things to do is roll around. Isn’t he so cute.
One night we had dinner at the Board Chairman’s house and there were other little girls there! We had our own, special, girls only table. It was fun to sit in the tiny little chairs with new friends.
Since they were there, we spent some time in the mornings playing with Gram and Papa while Mommy and Daddy slept. They really missed out on some fun times - oh well, their loss.
Overall the trip was really fun, but at one point I fell out of my chair and got a big bonk on my face. I decided later that I didn’t want to wear clothes while I ate lunch. I was cooperating enough to do the cute face for the camera.
Mommy decided that it would be a good idea to get to the airport early so we could eat lunch before our flight. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed for hours and hours and hours. The only redeeming part about it was that there was this cool kids play area out in front of one of the gates for me to play with.
Liam took a nap on some coats piled up against the wall, but not me! I’m way too cool to take a nap in public!
When we got back to Denver I went with Gram and Papa to the baggage claim area. I got a little ride on Gram’s rolling suitcase. It was a fun trip, but it’s good to get back home.
While we were in Arizona it was Uncle Buddy’s birthday. So we celebrated when we got back. We had dinner with the whole family at Red Lobster. Liam and I were having fun with Aunt Stacey.
Mommy and I made the coolest thing together… A Robot Costume! I don’t know about you, but I think it is the best thing ever. Look at the detail and the decorations. What a great mommy to think of it.
I can’t believe it! I think the snow will never melt! The one good thing about the snow is that Daddy and I can go outside and “ice skate.” Ok, so I don’t have any skates or a pond, but I like sliding on the ice and snow-packed streets and pretending. You may notice htat I have no coat on in this picture, but that’s because I have a hat and scarf and I think I know if I need a coat or not. I mean I am 2 1/2 you know!
