Little J and I

I went to this place called The Jungle. Grandma threw me in a huge tub of balls.

Wow, white cake, lemon filling, and lots of gooey frosting. Notice how I feed myself. I know I'm a bit messy but I do know how to use a spoon. I really wanted these boots for my birthday but they didn't have my size. Anyway I met a bunch of new friends at the boot store. And I remembered to brush my teeth after eating cake.

Too busy to keep up with the blog. Busy learning to walk. That's right. I have it mastered. All the way across the room. Ha ha - I'm gonna catch those kitties and wrap their fluffly tails around my little fist. I would have new pictures up here but Grandma seems to be getting a bit worn out. She promises they will appear soon.

Last weekend I got to go to Chapel of the Chimes with my 2nd cousin to put flowers on all the niches of our dead relatives. Afterward we went to her Grandma's house. We had lots of fun there. Grandma and I brush our teeth every night. Sometimes I just get so tired I poop out on Grandpa's stomach. Other than that, I just had my eleven month check up. I weight a little over 20 pounds and am doing everything right on time. I get to eat real food now and there are rumors that they are going to take away my bottle. We'll see about that. Oh yeah, I walk two or three steps now before I fall down.

This was my first Christmas. I got some toys from Santa. But most of all I got lots of clothes from the relatives. That is a good thing because all I had to wear on Christmas Eve were these silly red shoes. I've been trying to walk but I fall down everytime I let go of my walker. I think I'll have it mastered before the New Year; then I'll give the walker to the poor boys. Don't tell anyone but Grandpa gave me an m&m at Christmas and Daddy gave me a Candy Cane. Grandma must have found out though because she made me brush all my eight teeth. But that wasn't so bad because the toothpaste tastes like apples and bananas.

I discovered potatoe chips and then I ate so many that I couldn't eat my dinner. My grandma thinks I'm big enough to help with the dishes but I don't think so.

Hey there, I got to go on an adventure with Grandma and Grandpa. First of all, they woke me up in the middle of my night and put me in this tiny room that rolled and jerked all night. I did enjoy looking out the window at all the lights. It was fun watching Grandpa try to climb up into the upper berth. I slept good and in the morning I got to check out the upper berth. We visited one of Grandma's best friends in Vancouver. I got to lounge around with the big bear. We visited FAO Schwarz in Seattle. I saw lots of big bears there. Maybe I'll get one for Christmas. I slept eleven hours during the trip home. It was quite an exhausting adventure and I got a bit of a cold but I am feeling better now. Tomorrow is my first Thanksgiving and I have my eye on a big turkey drumstick. I can handle it. Really.
