Looking Out the Window with Lucky

Me and Lucky are getting along very well.
Occasionally, she even lets me up on her chair with her to watch the neighborhood.
This is her #1 job and she takes it very seriously.

Love,

Worn Out

Every other Thursday, me, Grandma Mary, Aunt Jolene, & Cousin AJ go shopping at Costco and then dinner at Red Robin. This particular Thursday, I was exhausted. But don't worry, I did NOT let go of my balloon.

Sleepover at Grandma Mary's

I got to sleep over at Grandma Mary's so mommy could go to Miss Missy's wedding reception (Daddy had to work). She had lots of fun, Miss Missy looked beautiful, and she got to meet Blake Lewis (American Idol - he was a guest at the reception). It was a fun night for her, but I had lots of fun too! Whenever I go to Grandma Mary's we must go outside.

I love feeding the squirrels and looking at the pretty flowers.

Next we bake something. Last time was cookies, this time is cupcakes. I am a good helper.

I take my job very seriously.

I love the decorating part. It's messy!

But my favorite part is eating it. Yummy!

Mickey Mouse's Rockin' Road Show

I went to my first "stage show" at Comcast Arena. It was very fun.

Seeing Cinderella and Tigger was my favorite.

I love my new Goofy doll. I slept with him for 3 days after the show.

Is there any resemblance? Do I look part mouse?

Happy Rockin',

Love,

At the Dentist for a Cleaning

This is my 3rd time going to the dentist. This time I was such a big girl that I got to sit in the chair all by myself (usually Daddy has to hold me). Here the lady is showing me how the tool works by tickling my finger with it.
Here I am getting my teeth flossed.

Of course no cavities. Mommy would freak since she's is the main supervisor of my daily brushing. So we are both doing good so far!

Happy Brushing!

Pump It Up

During Mommy's winter break we went to Pump It Up to play. None of us had been there before. Mommy was a little uneasy about some of the big slides Daddy sent me flying down, but I had so much fun. Daddy chose this one as our first one to go down.
Mommy was having a heart attack for a few reasons 1) Daddy did NOT watch the safety video, 2) Daddy would send me down on my own (Mommy thought I would bounce of the bottom and go sailing through the air, so even though she wanted to close her eyes, she kept them open in case she had to catch me), and 3) Daddy would go down after me HEAD FIRST (this is against the rules - which he would know if watched the safety video).

Wheeee!

Look at my smile. My face stayed like that the whole time. I would just grab my Daddy's finger and drag him back to another slide.

And guess what, Mommy's spring break is coming in a couple of weeks and we are going to go there again. Hopefully, Mommy won't be so nervous and Daddy will follow the rules. I would hate for my Daddy to get kicked out. :)

Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning

I know it's March and Christmas was 3 months ago, but hey better late then never right? After Christmas Eve Mass, we went to Grandma Mary's house for Chinese food and a sleep over.

A story before bed, and then nighty-night because Santa was on his way!

Here I come. What did Santa leave for me?

Oh, my goodness! I got my very first American Girl Baby Doll. I found her sleeping in her crib in front of the Christmas tree. She is beautiful!

And she has a stroller and diaper bag!

Even a high chair. I must have been a VERY GOOD GIRL!

Daddy and Lucky clearly aren't as excited!

But me and Mommy sure are!

Me trying on my old baby seat. It doesn't fit me.

But it fits AJ perfectly!

I hope you had as good a Christmas as I did.

Love,

Christmas Cookies with Grandma Mary

Before Christmas, Grandma Mary had me over to make cookies. When mommy asked if I was making cookies for Santa, I cried, "No, MaryAnna's cookies". However, I did end up saving him a couple. So pretty. I must take after my cousin Patti.

Lots of sprinkles are good!

When we were done it was time to enjoy. Milk and cookies, yummy!

Love,

MaryAnna Mae
