1-2-08 Mimi came this morning and I was quite grumpy at first; I even tinkled on the bathroom floor and said it was an accident. Mimi knew it was not an accident, so I had to clean it up! I actually said at first, "Mommy can clean it when she gets home". Mimi's reply was, "Do you think mommy will want to come home to that after working "? So then I said, "NO, I will leave it for daddy... well then again that was not the best answer either. Bottom line is Mimi had me clean it and I kept talking about how my hands got dirty. Needless to say no more planned accidents ;)
Papa came to get me and I got to go see WaterHorse! I LOVED IT. The when we got back to Papa's house I saw Peyton was there.... Grandma calapsed in Grandpa Lou's hospital room.
1-1-08 Happy New Year!!!
We stayed in Pj's all day today!
12-31-07 New Years Eve!
Mommy took Peyton and I to the mall today and I got to play on the toys.... I then scared mommy because I started talking to this really tough looking guy with dark sunglasses on ;) It was Papa! He came to see me.... I then got to go get a cookie and some fruit punch with him. Papa and KK came over this evening to visit for a bit.. I was in bed before the ball dropped though.
12-30-07 Mommy and daddy took Peyton and I to the mall to play on the toys today; I had a lot of fun and Peyton liked watching me.
Please again say a prayer for my Papa Lou; mommy had a call from Mimi that said he was doing pretty bad the other night and was admited to the hospital. He is stable now, but does have phnemonia. I am not sure what else is going on, but mommy seemed very concerned today about Mimi and Grandma Cuddohy; I asked if Papa Lou was going to Heaven. Mommy told me that someday we will all go and I told her that it is a happy nice place, so everyone is happy there.
12-29-07 No nap today! Oh boy .... mommy tried to put me down and she made the mistake of telling me that I jsut needed a short nap; 15 minutes later I came down and said, 'okay here I am'. You said I only needed to take a short nap ;) Needless to say I did not make my way back upstairs.
Craig, Aimee, Hailee, and Brian came over tonight... my no nap showed at times. HayBug was scared of my horse Dreamer; mommy had to keep moving Dreamer out of the way so Hay would play with me. Maybe next time she will want to ride her. Hailee and Brian gave me a Christmas present and it was a travel pillow with my name on it; the really cool thing is that it opens up and there is a doll inside with clothes and the inside of the pillow is a bedroom and a livingroom. I was so tired that when they were leaving I fell asleep in mommy's arms.
12-27-07 Mimi was here this morning, but KK came to get me so I could go to a movie with her and hers friends. There was another girl there named Sara that I played with; I like her and play well with her. KK said that I was the most polite girl today and said Hi to everyone and Thank you..... I also had everyone in the theatre giggling around us at one point in the movie because the magic had left and then it came back and I looked at KK and said something like, I am so happy. We built a snowman also for Papa.. remember he use to be called Snowman over seas and I called him Snowie ;)
12-26-07 I woke up at 9:00AM this morning along with everyone else! We were all so tired.... Pretty much all day I had mommy opening my gifts so I could play with them all. I wanted Papa to come and play with me, but he had somethings going on and then later it just got to be too late.
12-25-07 Christmas Day! I woke at 7:45AM with the help of daddy opening my door up ;) The first thing I said was, Is Santa Here? We then went and got Mommy.... we got to open my stocking while Peyton was still sleeping. I had a lot of fun things in there and some treats. After Peyton woke she opened her stocking and then did a few gifts that Santa brought..... Bitty Baby changing pad, Care Bears movie, Moon sand, Magna Doodle, and a tent with camping stuff ;) Papa and KK came about 10:30AM and brought cinnamon rolls along with presents. They had a bunch of things, but my most favorite thing was..... okay first KK read me a card that talked about something that was too big for Santa to bring down the chimney, so he left it on the front porch... mommy told me to go look outside and I screamed! It was 'What I always wanted' as I say. My HORSE; the FurReal Butterscotch horse. I was so excited.
Later we went and picked Grandma Cuddohy up to take her to Mimi's with us because Papa Lou is not feeling well and was not up to going. Again lots of presents and I even got a blanket and leg warmers for my horse ;) I am all set now. I had so much fun playing with Reagan also.....
Off to the Boelens' side! I was playing with my cousin Ana; and once again we had presents! I got another pair of cute Pjs.... and of course lots of other things. I was tired once we got home.
12-24-07 Christmas Eve.... I wnet to Papa and KK's while mommy and daddy worked for a bit today. I later met them at Gigi's house where we had a party. I had to remind everyone that Santa comes tonight also!!!! We ate pizza for dinner and I got to help Kristy Jo make ice cream in Gigi's new ice cream maker... wait until you see how!
We then went to Mimi's where we celebrated Christmas with Jenn (G-Papa's daughter) She bought me a vest and lady bug pjs ;) I had a great time and of course had to be the life of the party. All the adults play a card game and this year I got to play; we all start of with a certain amount of cards, we all flip a card over and the highest card gets to pick a gift out of the basket. I had my own basket since I am a little girl and do not use adult things yet ;) I have no idea what I would do with a box of chocolate, candles, alarm clocks, meijer cards, de-icer things, etc. I did pretty well waiting my turn and realizing that I did not always win..... at the end I jsut got to open what I had left once everyone was finished with their cards.
Once we got home I left a note for Santa and put cookies out.....
12-23-07 We went to Aunt Jamie's today so mommy could get her hair cut and I got to play with Chelsea. I had a lot of fun running around and re-arranging ornaments. Aunt Jamie also gave me some fun things to take home; a purse, an ornament, and bells! We took Peyton home and got her to sleep then we left to finish some running around; it was really bad outside too. I told mommy I would not talk much because she needs to 'consimtrate' while she is driving. So we were in Meijers and I was being so good until..... the mother of all mother tantrums happened; this was a tantrum like no other. Okay lets start from the beginning I have had a few of these tantrums before... it starts out crying really hard and then my voice sounds like the deep devil voice; kind of like the little boys voice in the 'Shinning". I get really strong and a crazed look on my face..... So mommy was talking to someone that she had not seen in awhile; I was looking at toys and before mommy knew it I had the cart full of toys... really it was full to the top. So mommy ended her conversation and we went down the toy isle; she started putting things back and I started to say NO and started to cry. Mommy was just talking to me.... She started to walk away and I was crying really hard and saying NO, trying to climb up her leg and also attempting to bite her a few times. She called daddy to have him hear and enjoy wheat she was going through....... So this is not where I am screaming like some kids do, it is a low, deep voice that sounds devilish. I was strapped into the cart after trying to push it into a table of flowers ;) Mommy jsut stayed calm and kept walking. I then was coming to the end of things when we hit check out and I just wanted to be held so Mommy picked me up and I asked to ride the horse; she told me not this time because I was not good. I started to cry a little bit and THEN I saw a little girl get on the horse... I quickly turned, straightened out my arm adn pointed my finger at her and in that devil's voice said NO. The little girl looked a little nervous. Mommy couldn't see my face, but she only imagined how I looked and I did not take my eyes off that girl! Now mommy says when she goes to a store and seeing a child having a tantrum she will pray that the next time I do this in public it will be a normal one!
12-22-07 We took Peyton to Papa and KK's so mommy and I could run some errands. I have so much fun just going with mommy, but really do miss Peyton when I am gone. I fell asleep in the car on the way home and slept for 2 hours! Mommy tried several times to wake me and thought when she moved me from the car to the couch I would wake up, but I was old cold. I eventually did wake up because mommy kept rubbing me and talking..... We fell asleep on the couch together.
12-21-07 It was a daddy night tonight! Mommy wnet out for a bit once she was able to leave; I cried and stood at the door sobbing while she got in her car, she couldn't leave me crying like that ;) Okay so yes I did put my tears away and had fun with daddy. Peyton cried, but lately I think that is just normal.
12-20-07 Mimi I had so much fun with you today even though Peyton cried all day ;) Okay so she is not feeling well, but it was difficult for me to deal with that because she is usually so happy. Anyway Mommy loved her card that I made and of course she opened her gift!! I kept telling her at Papa and KK's "NO, you need to wait til Christmas" Well of course she kept begging me so I finally gave in. Oh wait though before that we went to my Christmas party at Miss Amy's house and of course everyone was there. Santa even showed up!!! I tried to hide and started crying.... mommy handed Peyton to daddy so she could pick me up and then I tried to hide my face behind the wall.... Yes I was so not happy about this situation at all! Long story short and very exciting moves on Paiges part (miss Amy's daughter) I was giving Santa a high five, sitting and standing next to him, and even gave him a
HUG! Yes folks I gave him a
HUG. I told Mimi on the phone I was ready to go see the Santa at the mall ;)
12-19-07 Whoo Hoo... Papa took me sleding and I had so much fun; he did, however forget to take the camera. Oh well, I went down hills by myself and the larger hills Papa went with me. I had a great day and was tired when we were all finished. Oh Papa bought me new snow pants and they are my favorite color purple. We went to dinner at Olgas and while we were there I tooted adn it sounded like a MOO; I said I had cows coming out of my booty. Oh wait not just cows, but a calf.
Papa brought me home and I got to see Auntie Katie and Caden so of course I was wild! They are leaving the day after Christmas for Finland; mommy was sad that she was going. Auntie Katie kept telling Mommy that she was in for it with me......
12-18-07 I was at Miss Amy's today and we did projects for our Mommy's and Daddy's for Christmas.... we get to have a party here on Thursday with EVERYONE! I love parties... When mommy came and got us we got to go see Gigi for a little bit; I sure miss my Gigi and I had so much fun playing with all my toys that she has at her house. Oh she and Bethie did a great job decorating for Christmas too!
After we left there Mommy took us to Papa's house where I got to spend the night and Mimi came and picked Peyton up for the night. I did not mind that Mimi was taking Peyton and not me; which is good because it did not turn into a disaster ;)
12-15-07 Aimee emailed mommy a picture of our dance costumes this year.... Mommy is not overly excited about this costume. Last year was way more cute she says. We are dancing to 'Baby Take a Bow' from Shirley Temple.
12-15-07 Early to rise today; we went to Beth's to do Christmas cookies like we have for a couple years as I say ;) It is always fun and i get to play with my friends.... this year I got to meet their new baby brother Hollis and they met my baby Peyton. MyKayla and I are 12 hours apart (mommy went 2 weeks early and Bethies sister Jill went late) Oops I came 1st. So now Peyton came 2 weeks early and Jill had Hollis on Peyton's original due date (Jill was only a day over-due) Oh poor Jill! We all play very well together and have so much fun!
12-14-07 After my late night last night I did not want to wake up this morning ;)
Papa and KK came to see us and drop off a Christmas gift from Miss Peggy. She bought me an adorable plaid dress; i look like such a BIG girl in this dress. I had fun playing with Papa too, but I did get in trouble because I bit mommy on the arm! It was bleeding under the skin; I was a bit wild and got mad at her about something that I don't even remember. I went running upstairs to my room...... Oh KK came with her hair straight tonight!!! She has very curly hair for any of you that do not know her. Mommy took a few pictures and I will have to have her update those.
12-13-07 Today was my last day of Kindergym and swim! I was very sad that it was my last class because I love my teacher Miss Jamie. She gave us stickers today to say Thanks to us for being such a good group.
When we got to Mimi's house today I was so excited because we read The Nutcraker since we were going to that ballet tonight. I was so excited becuase I got to wear my Christmas dress..... I did so well and sat on the edge of my seat while asking Mimi a million question: "Where did the dog go, Where is the nutcracker, Where did Fritz go, When will she take her shoe off and throw it at the mouse"? Mimi forgot about that part, but I didn't ;) Oh Mimi would also try to sit back and watch and I would tell her to bend down so she could answer my questions! I was tired when we left, but was such a good girl.
12/12/07 Well to day was the big Santa day.. before I explain this day I will say that last week i could not go see him because I was not Bigger yet and this was the week i was going to be bigger. I was very excited about this day, so here it goes....
I told Mimi that I was very excited to go to se Santa and I ate well and fast; we got dressed and did my hair; 2 minutes before we left I told Mimi that I was not sure I was bigger today ;) She said lets just go and Papa will meet us there. We got to the mall and parked and I just asked where my Papa was.... Mimi said he will be here; lets just go in and if you do not want to see Santa you do not have too. Oh by this time I was pure WHITE and was breathing harder ;) I did not want to see Santa at this point and asked Papa to pick me up! Peyton sat on Sata's lap, but I wanted nothing to do with him and he even talked to me about Hailee (it is her grandpa) and dance class, but I would not look at him or anything. After that we stopped by a store and we were getting ready to leave and I kept asking if we could go look in stores and Mimi and Papa could not figure out why; well it was because I was terrified to walk back past Santa! Literally I was white as a ghost and Papa was waiting for me to pass out.... No Santa this year!
