One Week Until Christmas

I am excited about Christmas this year. I know who Santa is. He wears red pajamas and a red hat. I see him all over the place. He is on TV. He is in some of my books. I see Santa in our neighbor's yard. I even saw him at the grocery store with a snowman! And best of all, I know that Santa is bringing presents. I'm going to ask him to bring me a kitchen. Mommy thought that would be a good thing to ask for. I just need to be a good girl she says.

Does this girl look naughty or nice?

[Daddy thinks she looks a little mischievous.]

Wash My Hair

Today I went to the bathroom and got my bottle of body wash from the tub. I guess that I just needed to take a bath. I poured almost a whole bottle onto the carpet and then ran my hands through it and started washing my hair in the living room. I had soap all over my hair. When Mommy and Daddy caught me I told them "wash my hair!". I had to get a bath and the carpet was a mess.
[Note: There were no pictures taken so this behavior is not encouraged.]

Snow!

When I woke up this morning there was snow on the ground! It snowed while I was sleeping. Daddy let me walk in the snow. I liked looking at my footprints. When Mommy picked me up today the snow all gone. I hope it snows more next time.

Back to the Babysitter

Since Mommy is going to school again I am going back to the babysitter Alice. I was supposed to go yesterday but Alice had to go to the doctor. So Diane and Gram came over to play with me and take care of Luciana. Diane painted my nails!

So today was the first day at the babysitter. I had fun. Now that I am a big girl I get to play in the room with the big kids. I don't have to be with the babies anymore. I tell the other kids that Luciana is my baby. I am going to have to show her all about Alice's house.

Thanksgiving Trip

For Thanksgiving we went to Grandma's house. We took Luciana and Wrigley with us too. Daddy's car was full of stuff. Grandma set up a bunch of toys for me to play with so I had a lot of stuff to do. I also ate a lot of food. I hate some turkey and pie. My favorite was sopa (rice) at my great aunt Rina's house. I love any kind of rice.

The most fun thing that I did was go to a place called BellaBoo's. It was a lot of fun there. It is just for kids. I got to go a pretend store and buy groceries. I even had money to buy my stuff. I was a very grown-up shopper. I go shopping with Mommy and Daddy all of the time so I know what to do. I only bought important stuff like carrots, toothpaste, kleenex, and chocolate milk.

And they had a bunch of dress-up stuff to put on. I dressed up like a fireman princess but Daddy was too big for the clothes.

Daddy and I got to make a turkey out of cookies, pretzels and chocolate icing. It was an okay looking turkey but it tasted good!

And I got to paint my face. I painted one side of my face and Tia painted the other. Can you tell who did what?

Fun at Bath Time

Here are some pictures of me playing in my ducky bathtub. I love to take baths because I can play in the water while Daddy or Mommy gives me a bath. I like mess with my hair and make it crazy!

I also have some colors that I can put in my bath to make it turn colors. It is fun to make the water different colors. I think purple is my favorite but this picture is green. Sometimes we put two colors together to make another color. Daddy always knows how to make the colors. When I'm getting ready to take a bath I tell Daddy "purple, red, orange"! I get to put the colors in the water. It is fun. I could play in the water forever but sometimes the water gets cold and I have to get out.

On the Tube

Since I am home with Mommy and I don't go to the baby sitter anymore, I have started to watch some more shows on TV. I used to mostly watch the Disney channel with Mickey Clubhouse and Handy Manny. I do still like to watch Disney channel in the morning. As soon as I wake up my first words are usually "milk" and "mickey cubhouse".

But there are some good shows that I watch at night on Nick Jr. I watch Dora the Explorer. I even have some Dora shoes. She has a monkey called Boots. I like her. I like to watch Max and Ruby too. They are bunnies. Max is Ruby's little brother. Ruby is a girl like me. And I have watched Yo Gabba Gabba some too. It is a crazy show and Mommy really doesn't like it. They have a lot of colors and strange people. But they play music which I like.

I'm also starting to pay attention long enough to watch movies (at least parts of them). I watch Nemo and Sleeping Beauty. Nemo is a fishy. Mommy said that Luciana was Sleeping Beauty today while she was taking a nap. I watched Sleeping Beauty and she doesn't look like Luciana. Sleeping Beauty is not a baby! I told Mommy that she was wrong.
