Happy Birthday, Aunt Lindsey!!

Aunt Lindsey turned 30 years old! Her birthday is September 29th, but we surprised her at the end of August with a birthday party! She was SO surprised! I knew for a long time that we were planning her a surprise party; I helped pick out decorations with Mommy and Grandma.  I was so good at keeping a secret that every time I saw Aunt Lindsey before her party I put my pointer finger up to my mouth and I said, "Shhhh!" She didn't know why until afterwards.

Aunt Lindsey is on vacation today, so I can't see her to wish her a happy birthday, but I'm glad I got to go to her surprise party to celebrate!

I hope Aunt Lindsey has a wonderful 30th birthday!!

Peek-A-Boo Ball

Aunt Lindsey showed up with a big blue ball a few months ago. Although I was amused, I couldn't really carry it around without help. Now that I am walking everywhere, I quickly realized that I can pick the ball up and carry it with me! 

That's how my Mommy and I created a really fun peek-a-boo game with the ball. We each squish our faces against opposite sides of the ball; it makes our faces look so silly that we laugh and laugh! 

 Then, I check to see that her face isn't permanently stuck on the ball; I laugh some more! It is an adorable sound to hear my giggles echo on the rubber ball and watch me smash my face in many ways.

It's a fun game to play on a rainy day when we can't go outside! We do it over, and over, and over again.........

Not My Halloween Costume

I got a costume at the store yesterday, but it is NOT my Halloween costume! I let out a big "roar" when I saw it, so my Mommy thought it would be fun to use at home. When I tried it on, I wasn't sure about how much I liked the dinosaur head resting on my head, but once I saw myself in the mirror, I started roaring like crazy! When Daddy got home from work, we surprised him with me in the costume. We all laughed and laughed!

My Weekend

This weekend was a lot of fun! I am a walking-machine now and I like to walk laps around the house. I have tons of energy and I like when people chase me everywhere; it makes me giggle a lot! It is also a lot of fun to walk outside; I point to all of the doggies and bark at them!

I haven't gotten to see my Aunt Jen and Uncle Dominick in a long time since they live out of state, so it was nice to see them on Friday when they came in town. I got to dance to a lot of fun music!

Of course, I watched the Browns game on Sunday. My parents and I spent the day at Grandma Lynn's house eating yummy food and watching the game. Everyone fought over who got to hold me, so they took turns passing me around. 

Emily was in town to visit; she gave me yummy treats and Uncle Nick made me laugh!

Grandma Lynn brought me to see the fun toys upstairs.

It was a great weekend with my parents!

14 Months Old!

I am officially 14 months old today!

 Allow me to show you what has been going on with me during the past month...

My 1st Power Outage

Early this morning, our lights went out! My parents told me that our power was out. I didn't really know what that meant but I soon realized that it meant I could not see my toys or my books. We had to use flashlights and candles to get ready before we escaped the darkness and went to Grandma Lynn's house for the day. We just put my rain coat over my pajamas and headed out. As usual, it ended up being a very fun day at Grandma's house, and I forgot that the lights were off at home! When we got back, our power was on and I could play with all of my toys again! 

Stinker Browns

I stayed awake during the entire Browns game yesterday! I enjoyed watching my Daddy talk to the TV.

We were not very happy with the outcome of the game; it made us make stinker faces!
