A couple weeks ago I got to go with Nonny and Boppy to a fun Christmas event. I had a REALLY nummy breakfast (the caramel rolls were my favorite), I got a picture painted on my hand AND I got to see Santa. He even brought me an early present!

For the past few weeks we've also gotten a LOT of snow. Sometimes I like it but other times I think its a little scary because its so deep. I like it most when I'm on the driveway helping daddy shovel!

Another quick baby brother update...my mommy is still home on bed rest. She did have to have some shots to help my brother's lungs grow faster. I'm glad he's still in mommy's tummy growing and I'm also really glad she gets to stay home for Christmas!

Pictures

Just wanted to share some cute new pictures of me. I LOVE looking at pictures of me and talking about what I'm doing in each one. Hope you like them too!

PS - quick baby brother update...he's trying to come a little too early so mommy has been told she can't get out of bed until its time. I don't like that she can't play with me or help put me to bed but I do like cuddling with her on the couch and I do love all the time I get with Daddy! Please pray that my baby brother stays in mommy's tummy a while longer!!

Halloween

Halloween is so much fun. At first I wasn't too sure about it. Mommy and Daddy took me to a carnival at my school, there were a lot of scary costumes there so I didn't stay long. Then I went to another carnival and did some trick or treating at some new stores. I went with my friends Lila and Bella! Finally on Halloween I carved my first pumpkin, helped Mommy clean some pumpkin seeds, went to another carnival at church and then finally went trick or treating. I got lots of treats. It was so much fun!! I can't wait until next year.

I'm 2!!

Wow ... its been way too long since I've caught you up to date with me.

The first big news is that I'm 2!! Can you believe it!!?!!

Here are some pics from my parties!!

Since the last time I checked in...I had been having a very fun summer.

I took swimming lessons:

went to cousin's camp:

(Grammy and Poppa made cousin's camp at Sugar Lake -

we had story time, exercise time, song time, craft time, and more)

(Oh and Grammy made shirts for all of us)

I also went to the state fair:

But the best part of the summer was finding out that I'm going to be a

BIG SISTER!!!!!

Mommy is due Mar. 26 (she's 18 weeks).

I can't wait to see if I'll have a baby brother or sister!

I'll keep you posted!

first haircut

A couple of weeks ago, mommy took me to get my very first haircut. It was so much fun. I even got a little sucker when I was done. I was such a big girl, I didn't cry! Bye-bye mullet!

I held very still the whole time!

The lady even styled my hair! Isn't it pretty!

SLP Waterpark

Today I got to go to the SLP waterpark! I had never been before.

It was so much fun! I played in the fountains and best part of all, went on the whale waterslide at least 50 times! It was so much fun!!

More 4th of July pics

Mommy forgot to add some more fun pics from our 4th of July in Hayward.

We had a bonfire and Nonny bought me my very own adirondack!

We went on many boat rides, I love my new lifejacket!

Every summer, I get to drive the boat with Grampy!

Mommy's favorite part of the whole weekend was going to Angler's Haven for pizza!

We LOVE their pizza and popcorn!

I got to wear Grampy's hat during dinner!

4th of July

I had a fabulous 4th of July weekend at Lac Courte Orielles with Nonny and Grampy.

Here are some fun pics of the weekend!

Happy Dada Day!

I love you Dada!

Potty Time!!

For the past couple of months I have loved sitting on the toilet, flushing it and saying bye-bye to the water. Every time Mommy gives me a bath, I sit on the toilet but nothing ever really happens. Well...tonight something strange happened that made Mommy scream and shout and cheer! I went potty in the toilet!! She asked if I could do it again and I did. We cheered and clapped again. Mommy even gave me an M & M as a treat to celebrate!! It was so much fun!! Then, after my bath, I told Mommy and Daddy I had to go again. But before Daddy was able to get me on the potty, I pooped on the floor. I was able to finish on the potty and we all cheered and celebrated after many laughs. I am such a BIG girl!! AND...I got another M & M! I hope I can do it again tomorrow! I want to be just like my older cousins!!

Memorial Day Weekend

This last weekend was the best!! I spent the whole weekend at Sugar Lake. It was amazing! I got to play in the sand, splash in the water, run around with my cousins, chase Reese (the dog), play with water balloons, and swing!! What more could a girl want??
