Bath Time- August 2009

I love bath time. In the summer I play so hard I get to take one everynight AND one of the great advantages of being two is that I get dirty enough to need a bath sometimes twice a day!! ;) Only if I finger paint!! I lined up all of my ducks for counting tonight and I sure enough- I had 45 ducks representing seasons from throughout the year!! Some from Valentine's Day, My Birthday, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas!

A Three Ring Circus- August 1, 2009

Mommy and Daddy surprised me with a trip to the circus!! Lions and Tigers and Bears!! OH MY!! I saw many, many clowns and a grown man in a cape who could never seem to find his hat!! What a silly ring master he was. I ate snacks and had a rather enjoyable time!! I thought it was the very best show on earth!! I liked the juggling clowns, I loved the folding seats, I stared and stared at everything. So many colors, so many sounds I plan to run away to join the circus soon- maybe I'll wear a clown nose like Daddy!!

Dallas Children's Museum- July 25, 2009

We had a great family trip to the Dallas Children's Museum. I played and played. Daddy did too. He tried to teach me how to climb the rock wall and then we met in the middle in the tunnel. I did some grilling and sliding, digging in the sandbox AND I played in a tangled web. Then I walked down a bunch of steps all by myself. The best part is- Mommy bought a membership and we can now go again and again!!

An AMERICAN GIRL!!!- July 7, 2009

Mommy, Aunt Diz and I went to the American Girl store today. It was super fun there!! They have a bazillion dolls!! They come from throughout time and as babies and little girls. I had lunch with a doll named Elizabeth. She is from 1774 and Felicity is her bestfriend. I had mozzarella bread for lunch and chicken and apples. Then I had strawberry milk and chocolate chip cookies for desert. I got a Dolly with Pig Tails with blond hair and blue eyes like me. She is a little toddler like me that I named ZZZ like my Aunt Diz.

Little Miss Independence 2009

In the life of a 2 year new, Independence Day is more like a state of being than an actual day. I work towards independence everyday. Apparently, grown talls celebrate their indepence on just one day each year. Daddy was independent from work too!!

Mommy's favorite holiday is July 4 so she bought me a few different outfits for the celebration. See my smocked fireworks bubble and my vintage patriotic pants and my red white and blue swim suit. Kate's grandma made me the pants. I just love covering my arm with stickers!! Such a festive look!!

Grandpa Ralph and Grandpa Alan 4th of July Weekend

Grandpa and Grandpa came to visit. I call them both Pop! I am glad they came to visit me. We did lots of my favorite things. We swam and played with sidewalk chalk in the driveway and played with my wagon that they gave me for my birthday. We went to have ice cream too. I am so glad they were here. Sometimes I just wear a diaper in the summer and play outside. They didn't mind at all.
