Christmas!

Merry Christmas! This year Christmas was a little bit different for us. While I wish we were in our new house, we got to stay home this Christmas. Usually we are visiting Grandparents and Great-Grandparents on Christmas Day.

The weekend before Christmas we saw Papa Pooch and Great Grandma Dody.

This year on Christmas Eve at noon we went to Daddy's Uncle Gary's house for Great Grandma Thompson's Christmas. I had a lot of fun. I have a 2nd cousin Callie that I love playing with. I only see her once a year, but we get a long really well and I always enjoy seeing her. We are six months apart in age.

Christmas Eve late afternoon and evening we went to Papa Stew's and Grandma Marcia's. When we left Uncle Gary's house is was snowing...A LOT. Mommy was driving and thought we may just drop the gifts off and leave. We ended up staying until 7:00pm or so. It was a rough drive home. It normally takes us about 50 min. It took over 2 hours. The roads were really bad and in some spots Mom was only driving 20 mph.

Christmas Day we stayed home this year. This isn't something we normally get to do but we LOVED it. We stayed in our PJ's all day and played with the toys Santa left for us. The only downside was that we were in our 900 square foot rental house and not our new house, but next Christmas we'll be in the new house. Maybe we'll stay home Christmas Day then too...we'll just have to see. It was just really nice and we all had a great day together.

Halloween

I was Dorothy from Wizard of Oz for Halloween this year. I was so excited to be Dorothy. We had a great Halloween weekend.

Friday night we saw my Grandma Cindy and then went to a costume party with my other Grandma and Grandpa. I saw my cousin Riley there. She showed me some of her friends and we played. I won a cake in the cake walk and lots of other little prizes playing games.

Saturday we went roller skating. It was for a friends birthday party. Then Saturday night I went with my brother to a costume party for one of his friends. It was really fun. I ate pizza and chased the boys.

Today Mommy and I went to Zoolie Ghoolie and then we went Trick-or-Treating. It was a lot of fun.

My first dentist appointment

Tonight I had my very first dentist appointment. I was so excited and not scared at all. I wasn't sure what to expect but Brother, Mommy and Daddy go to the dentist, so I figured it had to be a neat place. I was right! It was so much fun.

First the nice lady called me back and I got to sit in a really big chair that lays down. Then she put some stuff on my teeth...flouride, I think. Then she sprayed my mouth with water and had me spit it into a tube. That was my favorite part. Then she brushed my teeth with a brand new princess toothbrush. I loved it.

Then the guy came in. I think he's the actual dentist. He guessed what my favorite colors are. He's so smart. He told me I had no cavities. Then I got to pick out a prize. They also gave me a new toothbrush, toothpaste, and cloth. Mommy says it's FLOSS, not CLOTH. Maybe I misunderstood what the nice dentist lady helper said.

Either way, I can't wait to go back in six months.

Haunted Hayride

Tonight Mommy, Daddy, Brother and I went on Haunted Hayride. Mommy and Brother went last week. They realized I wouldn't be scared so we all went this week. It was so much fun. When we were walking back to the car I said "It was really funny when...." Mommy thought it was funny that I thought the HAUNTED hayride was funny instead of scary.

I can't wait to go next year.

A walk with Mommy

This afternoon Mommy and I went on the trail for a walk. We walked just over two miles. That's quite a bit for my little legs. It was fun. When the wind would blow the leaves would fall off the trees. I said "Mommy, it's snowing leaves!" It looked really cool. After that we went and got and apple cider slush. YUM!

My new room - sort of

Tonight when we went to go look at our new house being built, they had a lot of the sub-floor in. That means I got to stand where my new bedroom will be. It was so cool!


(If you are wondering, my shirt says "Dad answers to me!")

A fun weekend

This weekend there was a Cub Scout camp out at Camp Cilca. We all went out there Saturday afternoon. It was very windy and it was a cold wind. Mommy and I decided not to stay all night. We stayed for the hot dog roast and then we decided to leave because the cold wind was really bothering me. On the way home I asked Mommy if we could stop by the mall to play in the indoor play area. She said I could. We did that for about an hour. Then we came on home.

Today, Mommy took Brother and I shopping this afternoon. Brother needed to finish getting the stuff for his Halloween costume. His costume is cool!!! I'll post a picture closer to Halloween. After we got done shopping Mommy took, Brother, Keegan (brother's friend) and me to the Fall Festival at the Baptist church. We played games and go our faces painted. It was so much fun!!
