Happy Birthday Auntie CC

Happy Birthday! And Happy New Year to everyone too! Yippee!

Santa done good

Santa got my letter and delivered exactly what I wanted! Amazing! I love it! Thanks Santa!

Bug eats...

Auntie CC took us to the new Insectarium in New Orleans over the break. Looking at bugs was fun, and thankfully, they were all behind glass...well, except for the ones we ate!


Here I am with a cricket chocolate chip cookie. I also had "bugnets". I ate quite a few. Tasty.

This is Max. From that Wild Things book. See Max?


This says:
I sorted by colors. I like spiders because they eat bugs.

Cookies and Gingerbread

So we made gingerbread cookies and decorated a gingerbread house. We used all our candy from Halloween to cover this gingerbread house (we didn't make the gingerbread for the house). Do you like?





See? The roof is drooping a little cuz of the weight of all that candy!

Xmas Party

Went to Bella's for a Xmas Party....and it was crazy fun. I was super sweaty from playing with all the kids. And I got a Lego set from Tristan and Logan and Addison. It's super awesome and has like a million pieces (okay, 595, but it's a lot). I've already completed several parts of it...did you know it's for 9 year olds? Ha. I can totally do it by myself.

Here I am reading the instructions.


See? I built this thing all by myself...but there are hundreds more pieces to do...


Here we are at Bella's. I got to hold onto Lucas...

Santana Row Dance Performance

So finally, my dream came true. One and a half years ago, I told Mommy that I wanted to dance...we were watching a group of young kids dancing on the stage at SR. And tonight, I did just that!





Ready to pop up as Rudolph!

Bruiser

Take a look at these pictures (mugshots maybe?) I fell off my chair in class and rubbed my face into the carpet (rugburn)! Ouch, but I didn't cry about it. Brave me.

Pictures with Santa

There pictures are funny....cuz Brendan has the same face in every picture...in face, he almost looks mad. But, like the photographer said...atleast he's not crying!





This is where I'm telling Santa I want an easy bake oven? Yup. Those commercials are amazing! I can make my own cake? No way! I love cake!









Which one do you like the best?

Recent writing and artwork

I made up these sentences.


In the upper right, that is a knife carving a turkey.

This is supposed to be a salmon smoker....

Parade!

I was in a parade yesterday. It was super fun, though we had to line up super duper early in the morning. At least I was hanging out with all my friends!

Who's that?


In line for the parade!


Hugs with Alexa and Emily!


The whole crew


Why are we playing in front of a portapotty? Yuck!


Can you spot me?


Here I have my head turned so you see my Santa Hat...just checking that Mommy is back there...

Gobble Gobble Day!

We had some yummy turkey with all the fixin's and then some. Mom and Dad were happy they didn't have to spend all day cooking cuz we ordered a meal from Whole Foods (tho there still was some prep time involved). It was pretty good. :) Jenna and Lindsay and Enzo and Uncle Chris and Auntie Susan came over to celebrate. B and I had so much fun playing with them.

When Mommy asked what I was thankful for....I said...Turkey! Happy Thanksgiving!

Off to work!

Dad had work today, but I had a holiday, so I decided to help him and go to work with him. I was good at being quiet when Daddy was on a conference call. And I met some of his coworkers. It was fun.

All dressed up and ready for work (I reorganized Dad's messy desk drawers)


One day, I might build one of these


Brendan came to pick me up. He wanted to work too!

Dentist

Another successful and cavity-free trip to the dentist! Yay! Dr K told me I have to brush for two whole minutes and so, I have been using my handy dandy sand timer to help me keep time. Sometimes, I even brush longer!

Pre-Christmas Dance Performance

Here we are performing our Holiday dances...Enjoy! Guess who I am?

Happy Birthday Auntie Betty!!! SURPRISE!!!

Surprise Auntie Betty! Uncle Joel planned this awesome surprise for Auntie Betty...and the best part? It totally worked! We had a super fun day in the park celebrating. B and I were completely zonked afterwards. Phew! You can see pictures of us in action in our 36th (b) and 66th months.


Here we are sneaking up on unsuspecting Auntie Betty taking a picture with Uncle Ken (decoy). Shhhh...we have to be really quiet!


And here we are shouting "SURPRISE!!!!!!"


See how surprised Auntie B was? Crazy good, right?

If you are looking for Brendan and Mommy....B had to go to the potty right before this...so they were walking in from behind, but they are not in these pictures....that's some bad timing little bro. But I guess when you gotta go, you gotta go!
