a whole lot of nothing...

on tuesday, mommy & i just hung out here at our house. we tried to get out & do a few errands, but i was asleep before we even got out of the neighborhood. so mommy took that as a cue to save the errands until wednesday. i took a great nap & woke up very happy. but i was NoT in the mood for picture-taking today, so these are just some action-shot play photos...

my new dora puzzle...

my cousin madison gave me this "dora the explorer" puzzle for christmas (we celebrated with them during thanksgiving.) i LoVE doing puzzles -- i am so proud of myself when i finish one! these pictures are in order, from when i started the puzzle to when i completed it. and the last few pictures are of my celebration dancing! "we did it! we did it! we did it, yeah!!" (that's what dora sings!)

yo gabba gabba & more...

uncle kyle & his family went home to missouri today. madison introduced me to a show called "yo gabba gabba." i am sure that most children are familiar with this show, but we don't watch a lot of television. i LoVeD this show!! it has dancing & music & lots of silliness & learning. madison & i danced like crazies!! sorry these pictures are not that great, but we were too busy dancing to worry about taking pictures. i also enjoyed looking at the "blocks" on uncle kyle's uniform. i can tell he is very brave. i am sad to see them go -- i was just getting a little more comfortable around all of them.

happy thanksgiving!

i began my thanksgiving festivities by going to star lake with my mommy, grammy, pappy, uncle kyle, aunt trudy & cousin madison. we enjoyed feeding the geese and ducks and i ran around A LoT! it was a beautiful day to be outside.



then we went back to grammy & pappy's house to continue making dinner. i helped mommy put cornflakes on the potato casserole! but i still refused to eat any of it.



grammy got these matching outfits for madison & me to wear together. we were pretty cute, but neither of us was very interested in taking pictures. in one pic, you can see me stealing a toy from madison -- i did this a lot when i got near to her. i also gave madison a few hugs, but this often scared her. so you can see us sitting in chairs looking entranced... well, that's because we were watching dora the explorer. that was the ONLY way we would sit still together!

my busy day with friends...

WOW!! what a BuSy & FuN day i've had!! today we went to the mcwane center with my friends savannah & megan. we dug up the dinosaurs & played with the water trough & did lots of other cool stuff. we also played at my house... we did potato-heads, play-doh, music & puzzles. i must admit, i have done better than usual on my skills of sharing & playing with others. savannah & megan have been setting good examples for me, and they are also very patient with me. we cannot wait to do it all again!!

get ready for a sleepover...

my friends savannah & megan came to visit!! they arrived this afternoon & we had dinner together & i showed them my toys. i hope they get to sleep in my room tonight!

a busy friday...

this morning i had a session with ms. lisa & we worked on writing letters & we also did a fishing game. as you can see here, we've already decorated for Christmas & i LoVE the tree! i fell in love with these bird-ornaments -- there are 2 red birds & a yellow bird. i carry them around in my purse & i have even slept with them for the last 2 nights. they are looking ragged already, but oh well...



then i went with mommy to a work meeting. i was really well behaved, especially considering that we were there for 2 hours! as a reward, we went to see grammy. then we had to go grocery shopping & i actually fell asleep on the way home. but i was tired after dinner anyway... it was a long & BuSy day! and i did GReaT!!

one little tired indian...

this is me after school & my speech & occupational therapy on wednesday. you can see that it wore me out!! i made this indian crown at school & i even got to wear it after school. i have been singing, "one little, two little, three little indians..." i love that song & i even make up different verses for all the different things around me. i sing about my ducks & fields & tractors.

sunday morning fashion show...

i am getting ready for church this morning. today i will be wearing this little flower frock that grammy made for me last year. it was WaY too big last year, but i am always GRoWinG so this year it fits pretty well! i just had to share, even before going to church (you never know when i might get food on my clothes!!)

this is what i did on friday...

on friday, we did chores & ate lunch at the house. i am really enjoying my trains, in fact, i like to carry these little blue & yellow trains with me everywhere (i keep them in my purse.) i also enjoyed playing with play-doh & i even made this tree all by myself!! mommy did not ask me to make anything in particular & i just molded it as i wished. when i was finished, i told mommy that i had made a tree! i am pretty proud of it. we also played farm with this set that aunt lorna & uncle gene gave me recently. i like to organize the hay bales & plant my orange flowers & pumpkins. in the afternoon, we went to a concert at the mall because mommy's friend was playing in the band. unfortunately we did not take any pictures, but i really enjoyed it... i actually sat still for all of the 45 minute show!! my pappy's family came in town last night so we will be spending time with them today!! can't wait!
