Easter feast(er?)!

My Aunt Teresa is getting married (and I gotta tell ya, I look sooo cute in my dress), and so we got to go to my grandma and grandpa's for three days while my mom and grandma and aunts had a shower and tied ribbons on little jars and made mints and all sorts of stuff. Let me tell you what I did.
I watched some Diego (my favorite). If you look closely, you can see my Aunt Sarah stuck Diego down the back of my pants. I didn't care, though, I've never seen Diego this big before!

I tried to wrap myself as an Easter gift. What more could ya want?

Finally! My mom was done with this shower business and we got to color eggs! The eggs made a fantastic colored sploosh! and we had so much fun. (We just ate our last multi-colored hard boiled egg yesterday.)

My Aunt Sarah, who is the bomb, brought me a potty chair. Did you know these things aren't just for pottying on? (Which is good 'cause I can't do it anyway). I sat on mine and blew bubbles (also given to me by Aunt Sarah).

See, even my dad likes the potty chair! Here he's trying to steal my Easter dinner. Hands off, bub!

Easter morning. I gotta tell ya, this holiday business is cool. I got lots of candy (which I never get) and super fun toys. here I'm trying on my cousin Max's flippers. Bring on the waves, I'm ready (even though I can't stand up)!

Oh, crap! I see you givin' me the eyeball, Mom, and I'm not gonna stop eating this candy!

Hoppy Easter, everybunny!

The coolest toys...

...aren't toys. You know, people buy me stuff a lot, and I really like all of it, but my mom always laughs because I always end up playing with stuff I'm not supposed to. For example, my favorite toys include the chair in the living room, my Aunt Teresa's wallet, my dad's catchall and the half full bag of flour in the pantry. I know, I'm weird. Here are some pictures my mom took of me one Saturday morning.

So this is my diaper box skirt. It was kind of a pain to carry around, so...

...I decided to make it into my house/vehicle. I sat in it and sang songs, scooted all around the kitchen floor, and I was having a great time until...

...it tried to eat me! As I struggled to extract myself from the jaws of this ruthless cardboard attacker, my mother lay on the floor, laughing and taking pictures. Does this woman have no soul?

That was a dumb game, but this is something I'm really good at. It's called, "jump from the chair to the ottoman" (creative, huh?). As you can see from the above photo, it takes a lot of concentration and precise form. I've only fallen off once, and I maintain that it was due to faulty equipment. Even if you make it to the ottoman unscathed, you need to make it back to the chair before you can celebrate.
This is my victory smile. I should have a sponsor.

So one minute you're layin' in the tub singing "Twinkle, Twinkle"...

... and the next minute your mom's ticked cause you pooped in the tub. Sometimes a girl just lets go!

Do I look like I feel bad about it? I'm supposed to feel bad about it...

...but I don't! Ha ha!
Nothing to do with pooping, but today my mom was unloading the car, and I crawled up into the driver's seat. I watch her drive a lot, so I know that what you do when you're behind the wheel is move the wheel back and forth and sing really loud. I'm really good at driving, too bad everything still sounds like "Twinkle, Twinkle."

day party

Last Saturday, my dad took me to my grandma Rose's house. She was having a party! Mom said if I was going to go, I had to have a bath. That's good, 'cause I love the bath!

I love to dress up! Here I am, cute as all get out, just waiting to go to the party.
So, I've got my Diego in my backpack and I'm ready to rock. (Earlier today, my mom was showing this picture to my Aunt Teresa. Aunt Teresa said, "Just think, pretty soon she'll be wearing a real backpack." My mom got all weepy. What a baby, gah!)

New stuff and home improvement.

My aunt Sarah sent me the coolest thing! It's a sit-and-spin, and I got it in the mail for my birthday. Unfortunately, I can't work it. It is impossible for me to sit down on it without help. This leaves me with two options: 1. Yell, "Ready?", hit the music-making button, and watch my mom dance around like a deranged idiot, or 2. Use it like a chair to watch Diego with. Both are entertaining.


Yesterday my dad and uncle Dave put in a new kitchen floor. It is so cool! The only thing cooler than a brand new floor is a brand new pink polka dot raincoat. I love it. Look at how happy I am!
Seriously, I slept in my coat- and look at how clean a brand new floor is!

Springtime... at last!

Hello! Finally, it's getting warm outside! Last weekend, Mom and I played outside. It was great! My neighbor, Ellie, was outside and we did a lot of stuff.

This is us just hangin' out at the fence. My yard looks so different from over here!

This is me showing Ellie the hole in the retaining wall my dad made when he was painting the house last fall. It is gross down there!

Mom and I were chillin' on the porch. Obviously, she didn't understand the severity of the situation I was describing to her.
This is my favorite game. Let me explain it to you: first, pick up a rock. Take it to the fence and watch the neighbor dogs run over to eat it. Once the dogs realize it's just a rock, they will wander away. Throw the rock in the landscaping and start all over.

The Big Two

Hello everybody! I know it has been soooo long since I've posted, but man, I've been busy. In addition to the holidays and everything else that's happened since October, I just had a birthday! I got to have party, and it was so much fun! Then, last night, me and my mom and dad went out to dinner with my Grandma and Grandpa Bruck and my Aunt Staci and her boyfriend John. Turning two has been great!
I'm going to try really hard to get better about blogging to everyone. Hopefully you'll be hearing from me soon!
I love king crab alfredo!


I know I'm supposed to be smiling, but Grandpa just gave me a Dora cracker.
