I am two years old!


At my birthday party there were lots of balloons - grandma *knows* what a girl likes :)


The birthday girl got tired. Some strong arms were there to hold me :)

Action shot!


We went with some of our neighbor friends and waded in the creek :) Mommy just *wouldn't* KEEP UP!

Can you see just how INNOCENT I am standing in the driver's seat of mommy's car?

A girl this cute and smiling so sweetly just CANNOT be guilty of *anything*.


Mommy took me to the Pennsylvania Bakery (a fab place!). I started out in front of my pastry, in my own chair...

... and when mommy came back from getting her coffee, I was in *her* chair, eating *her* carrot cake. Mommy has no idea what the frosting tasted like, because I finished every single molecule of it, he he.


But mommy I do not WANT to sit in my seat, I want to be IN the show!



Here I am doing my funny face for mommy - I like to make her laugh. She laughs a lot (because I am funny a lot), but especially when I do "crazy head" bobbing, say the phrase "pizza guys" (private joke with mommy!), or make funny faces like this. :)


Today was story time and a ballet show at the one library...



... and yesterday I ran around at the other library. I LOVE libraries!


Mommy recommended that I choose from amongst the board books here...



... but I REALLY wanted "Life as a Colonist".

This is the "before" photo. You do NOT want to see the "after" picture :)


Gammy read a book to us... it is about furry kitties, my favorite!


My favorite part of bowling was tap-dancing in the funny shoes!



Playing ball with my sissie...

Wednesday, March 7




It is too cold for a little gal like me to pick apples outdoors, so mommy and I did it inside.



And daddy took me "skiing" :)


I tried to help my sissie, but she really did not need much help! Her legs are strong and she was holding on tight. I still like being the nurturing/protecting big sister, though, so I help her anyway :)



Mommy and I both have never had a Fastnacht before, so daddy brought some home for us. I polished mine off before mommy had even had a chance to take hers out of the *bag*, he he...




We are waiting for our daddy to come home :)


My baby sister Bella in Louisiana needs prayers again! She is in the Pediatric ICU once more - it is unclear what the illness is, but she is losing weight (under 10 pounds at 5 mos old) and her hair is falling out and she is sleeping *all* the time. Loads of tests will be done again. My birth mommy Jenelle was so grateful for the prayers last time, and we will keep praying for sweet baby Isabella. Get well quickly little sissie, we love you!!! You have a great mama taking good care of you!


We sent my sister Bella in Louisiana a package yesterday. I had to play inside the box with my teddy first, though.



And then I had to sit on it to test the strength of mommy's packaging :)


My first Girl Scout cookies (Thin Mints). We have no idea what happened to daddy's box of Peanut Butter cookies?!?!


After daddy and I shovelled our own walk & driveways, we went over to grandma's to do it again...
