Tis the Season


"Uh oh" (I am really good at saying that now!

This is my birthday plate.
All my friends at my party wrote messages on it after I painted my hand. Cool huh!

I got to help decorate a Christmas Tree last night! I had such a great time putting ornaments on the tree, and taking them off, putting them on, taking them off.... We helped Clint and Alicia after they invited us over. First we visited a Farm Shop with yummy foods (cheese) and wine (but they wouldn't let me try it), then we ordered Indian food and "decked the halls!"



I helped...

Vacuum the fake needles w/ Alicia.

Untangle the beads w/ Daddy.

Decorate with Garland.

And tie a bow on top with Uncle Clint!

This hat was also fun:



Other events this week involved a big truck taking all our stuff, well, most of it anyway. I got to spend a day and half at Ms. Maureen's continually coming home to a new decor. The first night I was okay (because I was SO tired) and then at 12:30 I woke up TERRIFIED of all brown boxes towering in my room. It took a lot for Mommy and Daddy to assure me I was okay. Finally, after a inspection of the situation [with all the lights on], a bit of a snack and some play time, I was ready to go back to bed. Subsequent nights have been a lot better and no problems with anything anymore. In fact, I rather like all the room I have to run... and dance (check out my video!) Mommy and Daddy even enjoy not having a t.v. right now. We play a lot and they go to bed earlier :)

We tried to hunt down Santa this weekend. We found him, but he was just walking around passing out candy canes. I got to check him out, but Mommy says I still need to take a picture with him. He seems.... OK.... Guess I should think of what I want to ask him for?!

Video: Dancing to one of my favorite songs. It always gets me moving!


See you all next week.
Stateside in 29 days!
