Grandma and Lamb Chop

My Grandma is the BEST! Every time she comes to visit she makes sure that she tells me hello and gives me all the hugs and kisses before Daddy and Momma. We always have so much fun playing and talking. She gave me the coolest Lamp Chop puppet I have ever seen. It actually talks. Each time I get to play with it I smile because it reminds me of how much fun I had with Grandma.

Long Day

What a long day it was on Monday. Momma and Daddy were up all night with Abbi and her new puppies. While I was at Mrs. Emily's house, they were hoping to get a nap but they had to go to the Vet and take Momma to the liver doctor. Each night after my dinner I like to eat cheerios before my milk. I realized I was just as tired as Momma and Daddy when I was having my milk, even though I got to sleep all night. I didn't even get a chance to finish my milk before I was fast asleep. I could hear Momma laughing when she discovered I had fallen asleep. I was dreaming about playing with my 6 new puppies, so I kept on sleeping.

Swinging Away Mothers Day

Since it was my Momma's first Mother's Day I decided to make it extra special by wearing a dress Momma made for me. She told me when she was dressing me that she really just wanted to enjoy time with me and Daddy and relax since we have been busy getting ready for Abbi to have her puppies. While we were getting everything ready for Abbi I found where my swing has been hiding. I wanted to try it out again, but I was not as impressed with it as I used to be. That is until I discovered I can grab the bar and hold on to make it stop. After a close call of trying to make it flip over Momma told me that I could not swing any more. I then decided that we should go to the park to celebrate the day. I haven't been to the park yet so I was most excited about this adventure. When we got to the park there were so many things to do some of my favorites were swinging and sliding with Daddy. The swing at the park was much more fun than my swing at home because I can go higher and faster.

Now if I can just convince Momma and Daddy that I need to go to the park everyday!

1st Family Vacation to California

I have now officially traveled across country. I took the longest plane ride that anyone my age should be allowed to take from the east coast to the west coast. The plane trip was fun but 5 hours which is too long for me. I simply wanted to crawl around. We all got to go to California because my Daddy had a conference for work. Momma and me had to find something to do when he was in his meetings so we did what girls do best - we shopped. We shopped in La Jolla Village right on the Pacific Ocean. Here is a view from my stroller.

When Daddy was done with his conference we took a trip to San Diego Zoo. Here I am having fun with Momma looking at the turtles and riding on Daddy's shoulders. My Daddy's shoulders were a nice break from being in the stroller.

Since the conference was over we went to Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Corona Del Mar and Long Beach. These are some places where movie stars live. So to get prepared when at night in the hotel I would read magazines in case I got to see someone famous. Those who are famous sure will do anything to get in a magazine.

We got to drive up Hwy 1 also known as Pacific Hwy. It was so much fun. We even got to spend time with my Momma's best friend Val and her Uncle Billy. I call her Auntie Val, she has a niece that is really close to my age, maybe some day me and her niece Rebecca can leave our parents at home and go to California to visit Auntie Val.

The most fun I had was playing in the sand at the beach in Laguna Beach. It was fun to feel the different texture all over my skin.

California was great fun. I am glad that my Daddy had a conference so me and Momma could go on vacation with him.

Cajun Festival

I finally had my first experience with crawfish. We went to the cajun festival in Charleston last month and my Momma and Daddy ate crawfish. I got to play with one since I am too young to eat them. I had fun pulling on them. It is a good thing this one was boiled because he could have pinched me with his pincher's. My Daddy gave me some tastes of the shrimp ettoufee and jambalaya, only of the rice because my palate is not ready for spicy cooking just yet.
