My House

   Hi there!!! Today Mommy made me this house! I've been playing in it all morning and it is SO much fun. See the lights? They're my favorite part ever!

   Here's a picture without the camera flash so you can see how pretty and bright they really are.

   You see, Daddy went to work this morning. It's his first day at his new job at Office Depot! So Mommy told me we needed to be productive too, we started cleaning and organizing all my toys, then we put away all my old one's I never play with anymore. And then we got to recycle that box from getting my new car seat (last blog post), so this is what we made!

   My second favorite thing about my house is the windows! They swing open and closed, I could play with them for hours. I am soooooo in love with my new house!

   Now that I've shown you my new house I need to get back to playing, see you soon! Bye!

Sincerely,

From Box to Car / The Great Car Seat Story

   Babababababababa... Oh hi there, I'm just babbling up a storm over here. Guess what? I got a new car seat! This is the one Mommy won in an online drawing. It just came in the mail yesterday.









   It was such a big adventure trying to figure out all the new bells and whistles on it. Daddy says it's a really good seat and he wishes he could be so comfy in the car!

   So first we took it out of the box and made sure all the pieces were there. I'm already too big for all the infant stuff, so we took that all out and set it aside for the next baby.

    After that we loosened and tightened all the straps until it fit me just right. I'm so excited to be in a big girl seat, I even have my own cup holder!









   Then Daddy put me in so we could test it out. It was cold out so I had to dress warm!

    I got to read books on the way to Great Grandma and Grandpa's house!















   I had so much fun with my Great Aunts, my great Grandparents and my 2nd Cousin! I even got to climb the stairs! Under close supervision that is.









   It's a great car seat and I'm sure we'll have it a long, long time! And another great thing, it arrived just in time for our big birthday trip to College Station! I'm going to have a Hello Kitty party and it's going to be sooooooo fun! The trip will take at least 4 hours, talk about riding in style!

   Well, that's my story for the day. TTFN, Ta Ta For Now!

Sincerely,

Walking

   Hey you!

   Gosh it's tough to keep this blog going when I have so much fun stuff to do! I'm walking and talking and jibjabering up a storm! Daddy and Mommy can't believe I'm already 11 months old! My birthday's in less than 3 weeks and I'm soooooo excited!





    Mommy got all A's and B's on her midterms, she studied and studied and studied and it really paid off! Daddy was so fun to be with, he played with me and took care of me a bunch so Mommy could focus. Then once Mommy's midterms were done with we had out first Mommy daughter day! We went to the mall play area and I got to play with lots of other kids, we went shopping and picked out my Christmas dress that I'll wear in a couple months, and we watched the fishies in the big fish tank there. That was SO fun!

   Daddy's put in resume's to a bunch of different companies for better paying jobs, he's already had a bunch of interviews. Fingers crossed he gets one!

   Oh and guess what? Mommy entered into a contest and won a new car seat for me! I really don't like the one I have now, it's so uncomfortable I just cry all through the car ride. Anyways, this new one retails for $250 and it has great ratings (whatever that means), it should come in the mail in the next couple days! Woohoo Mommy!

  



   These pics are just me spending time with my favorite guy ever... Daddy! He makes me laugh and gives me toys, I think I'm in love! Don't you think we look cute together?






   And lastly... I've been walking for awhile now, but I just thought it was too much work so I didn't let Mommy get a video. I just liked crawling too much. Then the other day I realized, all the big kids are walking, maybe I should too! So I stood up then and there and started walking a ton! Daddy and Mommy still haven't gotten a really good video, but here's a short one where Mommy bribes me to walk with her glasses!

   Well, I guess that's all for now, see you later alligator!

Sincerely,
