Yeah!!! Snow day with mom!!!! My shirt says how much I LOVE snow days! We’ve already had so much fun this morning having extra cuddle time, chasing each other, drawing, and dancing to the chipmunks Christmas album!! I wish I could stay with her everyday! She definitely wishes she could stay with me!!!
Mom and Dad took me to see some guy on Friday: Santa! I wasn’t super excited to see him, I cried for mom most of the time, they did manage to get one halfway decent picture.
Saturday mom and I drove down to Carroll County to watch dad’s wrestling team for a little bit. I LOVED being in the gym, it just might be my calling! Mom made us leave early though because SNOW was coming! It has been too windy to play outside in the snow, but I’m looking out the window tons and I’ve learned to say “snow”. I can’t wait to use my new snowsuit that Grandma sent! Can you believe she found a snowsuit in FL???
I’ve learned to say “Mal” and “Pap”. I ran over to the computer where we Skype the other day and said “Mal” a bunch of times, they were all pretty proud of me.
Finally, today we put up the Christmas tree. I really wasn’t too interested in helping once mom and dad said I couldn’t touch/hit it. There are a few pictures of me just staring in amazement at the height of the tree and the lights. I’m a pretty good listener! 🙂 Can’t wait to see everyone!
I’m learning my animal sounds!

Though I battled a cold most of the trip I enjoyed my second Thanksgiving. I LOVED the green beans, of course, but also ate up the stuffing and brocolli casserole. I still do not like to ride in the car, we had to stop and give me a break about two hours in.
I definitely added to my growing list of vocabulary and christened several relatives with some names. His name started out as “Bobby”, but Dad’s dad is now “Poppy” and Grandma’s mom is “G.G.” I also said “Beth”. I learned to say “yellow” and “gobble” too, video coming soon!
Mom, Dad, and I enjoyed what will probably be the last weekend we can be outside with light jackets. I had a great time climbing, running, swinging, and sliding.
I’m also having a vocabulary explosion! This weekend I learned to say yellow, black, orange, brown, badge (I love to play with mom and dad’s school badges), elbow, knee, clock, and probably some others they are forgetting about. I’m growing up soooo fast! At my check-up I was 28.4 lbs, 32.5 in, and still a huge head (but I’ve gone from the 99th percentaile to 70, so I’m moving in the right direction).
Mom, Dad, and I had a great time enjoying the beautiful weather! Can you believe I’m a year and a half? I have my check-up on Friday, so we’ll have measurements then.
New this week: I can say ball and baby, I can now also identify the letter B!
I can totally identify the letter “A”, here’s the proof! Add “apple” and “Abby” (my little girlfriend at daycare) to my growing list of vocab! Also new this weekend: moon and star! Working on B!

I’ve learned to say “Ipad” and to cast in my fishing game! I’ve also learned to identify the letter “A” from doing “A” crafts/reading with mommy and using an Ipad app (we’re working on that video, I just wasn’t much into that this morning).

I decided I would dress up as my favorite thing for Halloween: the IPAD! Easy and free, great costume! We went to visit a few people. I got to see my girl Jessica again. It took me a while to warm up, but I gave her plently of kisses when we left! Dr. Petrie gave me a HUGE candy bar (Dad will definitley enjoy it). All and all a fun night! 🙂
