What a day!

Mommy took us to a new place Monday. There were a lot of kids there and they were playing a movie with lots of singing vegetables. Then Mommy took me into a back room and there were 2 nice ladies there. They were each sitting on a different side of me and talking to me and telling me how pretty I am. And, then...they each gave me a shot in my legs! They were just pretending to be nice but now I know how mean they are! And, you better believe I let them know just how mean they were to me. I cried and cried and let everybody in the entire room know how they tricked me. And, then my Mommy finally rescued me and took me home.

Before & After

This is how I take pictures.
I stand really still so they can get my picture but I don't smile.
But I love having my picture taken so afterwards I smile and maybe do my happy dance.

Slide

This is my slide. Grandpa got it just for me when Camden and Hunter were little. He kept it out by the shed so Hayden and Meredith cleaned it up for me. Hayden and Meredith play on it too. But they do it wrong. They like to slide down backwards and face first. I tried to go down face first yesterday but the bottom was up against the register and I cut my lip. It was all Hayden and Meredith's fault. I was so mad and hurt and now my lip looks funny up close.

But aren't I a pretty girl? My hair is getting long. Soon Grandpa will complain that it is always in my eyes. Silly Grandpa.

Morning Ritual

Every morning it's the same thing. We have to take ALL the stuff out of bed and carry it downstairs with us. I hand Mommy everything one by one and tell her what it is. Today there were only 4 things: "Blankie", "Bear", "Book", and "Where are you.*" Then Mommy carries me and everything else downstairs.

* translation: "Where are you" is the stuffed Scooby Doo toy

Sentence

Steffi said an entire sentence yesterday. I heard the bus pull up so I told her Hayden was coming and she immediately went to the door and said, "Hayden, where are you?" over and over until he came in. OK - probably no one else in the world would have understood her but to me it was plain as day. So now we can sing a song....

{ahem, me, me, me, mee}

Mommy: Scooby Dooby Doo
Steffi: Where are you?

Steffi & Leah

This is my friend Leah. She's just a month and 1/2 younger than I am. She also has an older sister Dana for Meredith to play with. But they were playing upstairs so MomMom didn't get many pictures of them. I'm so happy Meredith and I got to see some kids our age to play with. We had a great time. I was very sleepy in this picture so I took a nap on the way home.

Me & Grandma

This is my Grandma. Isn't she so cute? I can't wait to see her again.
