Weekend Getaway

Two weekends ago, Mama, Daddy and I decided to take a little weekend trip to Vail. It was really pretty and I got to do some new things. I went to an art festival (blah!), a BBQ festival (yummy!) and I went on my first gondola ride. Actually, it was my second, but Mama said the first didn't count since the gondola was open and she was freaked out the whole time, thinking I would fall out. I don't remember it anyway, since I was so little. Here are some pictures of our fun-filled weekend getaway!

Grandmas Visit!

A couple weeks ago, we had a house full of guests. Grandma Donna, Papa Jim, Great Grandma Norma, Aunt Carol, our friend Barb AND Grandma's new puppy, Baby, all came to visit. We had so much fun, especially me since I got to do lots of fun things and got presents from everybody. Mama and Daddy even got to go out on a date, which they were pretty excited about. I would have liked to have gone to dinner with them too, but they said the restaurant wasn't "baby friendly" whatever that means. That's okay though, I got to stay home and play peekaboo with Great-Grandma instead! Here is a little scrapbook of their visit. Enjoy!

My First Co-Ed Bath

While everyone was here for Mama's Girls' Weekend, I took my first co-ed bath with my buddy, Natalie. Now I know I'm new to this whole anatomy thing, but Natalie seemed to be missing some parts, which concerned me. I was very confused and wanted to investigate this further, but Mama and Auntie D just kept saying, "You can touch your own parts, but not each others'." I don't understand what the fuss was all about, but they said we'd understand when we were older. They also said they wanted photographic evidence of our first bath together so they could show it to us when we go to the prom together someday. I don't know anything about proms, except that they involve food and dancing, so I'm in!

Bad Girls, Good Babes Weekend 2009

Mama says she is very lucky that she has three friends that she's had for a long time that she still keeps in touch with--Auntie Dana, Auntie Lisa and Auntie Laryl. They all went to college together (I don't know what this "college" place is, but Mama says I BETTER go, because they're saving money for it). The four of them have been getting together for a Girls Weekend at least once a year for the last 11 years. Mama says the weekends used to be much different--dancing, staying out late, drinking lots of wine, etc. Sounds boring to me, so lucky for them, there are now three babies in the group to add some excitement: Me, Natalie and Marisa (plus one more coming in December courtesy of Auntie D).

So, what used to be called the Bad Girls Weekend is now the "Bad Girls, Good Babes" weekend. Our latest was right here at our house in sunny Colorado over Memorial Day Weekend, and here are some pictures from our very fun four-day weekend together!

And We're Back...

After a 2 1/2 month hiatus, Mama has FINALLY decided to help me update my blog. It's been a while and I don't know where to start, but I hear it's like riding a bike (okay, maybe not the best analogy for me since I've never ridden one). I thought I would start off with a few video clips since I know you are all dying to see me in action.
Warning: The videos you are about to watch may induce laughter and an uncontrollable urge to buy a plane ticket to Denver...

Kisses!

All wet...

Snow Day!

Today was a special day! Mama got a call early this morning that school was canceled. Of course, I didn't see the need to just sleep the day away, so I woke up at my usual time, 6:30. Mama wasn't too excited about that, but we had a great day anyway. We played and played. I even went outside to see the snow for a little bit. I don't understand what is so great about it. It was cold and wet and I really didn't like having to put so many clothes on. I think I'll just hang out inside by the fireplace until this all blows over.

 

Me and my ice cream...

Just like my Grandpa Mike, I LOVE my ice cream. Mommy says I shouldn't eat too much of it, but Daddy sneaks it to me whenever he can. I love my Daddy!
