Nemo... the Horse?!

This is my newest pet, a white bucking balloon named Nemo. My Grandma Judy aka "Judy" sent over two cool balloons for me and my baby sister. I got the super cool horsey and Amelia got a boodieful bufly (beautiful butterfly). Amelia told me it was OK that I could run though the house with both balloons. I really wanted to sleep with my balloon, but my Daddy said that "Nemo" would be just fine sleeping in the living room with the butterfly. I can't wait to play with them again in the morning. Thanks Grandma Judy!!

Auntie Annie

This is my Auntie Annie. She stopped by today to visit one last time before she heads back to school. We will all miss her but we know how important it is to go to school. My Mommy said I will get to go to preschool soon, I can't wait! I wonder if Annie school is like preschool? We had fun playing with these cool paints that Nana sent over. I painted two pictures and my Mommy said that I have potential (whatever that means). Thanks Nana! Thanks for coming over, Annie. We will miss you and look we forward to reading your comments on our blog. Have a safe flight home and have fun!

Happy Half Birthday Amelia!!

My First Ride on a Real Waterslide...

..maybe next year I can handle the surprising flipover at the end of the ride!

I want my Mommy!

"I have never felt so nervous and worried as I watch my baby boy embark up the many stairs to the top of the wooden tower where the winding, green water slide awaits for it's next victim." James' Mommy thought to herself. "Oh my, they made it!! Oh, no they flipped!!! He's safe now. I think we will wait until next year to try this again, or at least until the summer!"

1, 2, 3... Wheeee!!!

One...

Two...
Three... Whee!

Make Way for a Duckling!!!

Just shootin' some hoops!

My daddy and I had so much fun playing boskeetbol (aka

basketball). We shot some hoops each day, even when I was feeling under the weather on the last day. Daddy said he sure got a work out lifting me way up high to the net. Thanks Daddy!!!

Happy Birthday Papa Bob!!!

"Hacca Bothday to you....dear Papa.

"Hacca Bothday to you!!!

We hope you had a super birthday!!!

I had a blast playing with all of my aunts, uncles and those silly doggies!! Willis (my Auntie Rita and Uncle JP's doggie) is super fun. We ran all over the house playing keep away with a white rubber ducky. Boy, was I all tuckered out. I fell fast asleep on the car ride home, Daddy said I was sleeping before we left the driveway!!! I can't wait to play with everybody again, we have so much fun together!!!

My Auntie Rita tried very hard to comfort me today while I was being fussy. It's hard being a baby sometimes because I just can't seem to make sense of this whole verbal communication thing yet. If only I could just tell my Mommy what was bothering me or what I want, life would be less complicated!!! Next time we visit I should be a happier little girl. I think I am getting some of those little white things they call teeth, because my mouth hurted a little. I have noticed that all the grown-ups seem to understand each other very well when they talk and all of their mouths are full of them!!! I think teeth is what I need so everybody can understand me...I hope!!!
