Times Square

Can you even believe who was in Time Square when we got there? Cookie and Elmo! Apparently they speak spanish and ask for money when you take a picture with them. It was so funny. mommy told me Sesame Street was in New York City, but somehow Cookie and Elmo seemed lost!

The BIG APPLE!! April 7-11, 2010

We went to see the Big Apple!! New York City! It was super fun. So many things to see. Everything was really, really big. The people, the crowds, the lines, the hotel, the toy stores, the candy stores. See some pictures of the BIG, BIG buildings and statues!! Mommy told me we would see a statue of a lady with a wand. I thought she looked just like Abby Cadabby!! I know she's green and lives in the water, but the wand, the wand is soooo Abby!! Mommy calls her "Lady Liberty." We went to the top of a really tall building they call The Rock. From the Top of the Rock we could see Abby Cadabby and other really tall buildings. We also saw the BIGGEST park ever!! It's called the Park in the Center. You can really see why from way up high!

The Arboretum! April 5, 2010

So who do you think had more fun? Miller, Addyson, Ruby Kate or the Mommy's taking pictures? Mommy's favorite flower is the tulip and there were 500 million trillon of them. Lots of them were orange so I was in heaven too. Orange is still my favorite color. If you haven't been to the Arboretum this spring- you really should go to visit. If you do go, be sure to stay sitting in your stoller. I stood up in mine and did a back flip which earned me a 'goose egg' on my forehead. You might have to look closely to see it, but I'd really rather you didn't.

Easter 2010

Mommy and I colored Easter Eggs. She told me we would have to kill them first. I thought that sounded awful. When she told me we were going to die eggs I thought I might cry. I didn't want to be a part of that at all. Turns out we were just coloring the eggs with colored water. I enjoyed it very much and got to decorate them with stickers and crayons. I also found my Easter bunny ears and enjoyed wearing them and making cute with the camera! Hope your Easter was as spectacular as mine!

Best of ALL a Fun Time with Nanny and Pop!!

Nanny and Pop enjoy my visits so much. They give me my very own room, my very own car seat, my very own toys. They take me to the park, the zoo, let me play in the yard, let me help make dinner. The whole time I was there I took only very short naps because I was so very excited to keep playing! See how many smiles I am wearing in all of these pictures? I did so much to help while I was there. I watered Pops flowers and helped Nanny in the kitchen. It is a fabulous, fabulous time. I even celebrated our Dougherty heritage on St. Patrick's Day. We made a traditional meal. I had no idea corned beef was my favorite meat!! Did you know that Pop is Daddy's Daddy? Sometimes I now call him "Pop" and other times I call him "Daddy Daddy.
