It's party-time!


Whew!

It's been busy around here for the last week. Grandma Babe went back to Houston on Saturday, and I sure miss her. She was fun, and it was nice of her to visit for almost 5 weeks. I hear my cousins were missing her, though, so I guess I'll share. I cried at the airport when Dad said I couldn't go with her.


That same afternoon, I went to Carly's birthday party. She's 4 years old. I can't say "birthday", but I can say "Happy to Carly".

The party was at a children's gym/activity center in our neighborhood and was a blast. I got to bounce on a trampoline, throw all sorts of balls around, slide down slides, ride a zipline and play in the ball pit. The best part was trying to figure out the water fountain. There were organized games, but they were really mostly for the bigger kids. For some live action shots - you know what to do. Click Here or on the image of the video.


Then it was Farmor's birthday on Sunday, and I got on a videoconference to sing happy birthday to her along with my cousins Leo and Jacob. That was fun. "Happy to Farmor".

And today, Harrison came over and we had a tea party on the newly snow-free deck. Whew - I told you I was partied-out.

I know a few more letters. When I count, I think the series goes 1,2,3,4,5,6,9,4. No-one knows why. This week, I've gotten much better at answering the question "what color is that?" - I used to always just say "wed" (red), even though I knew differently.

At storytime at the library, I've started participating in the games and songs more. I'm still at about 23 lbs, which makes me pretty darned skinny for my age.

Oh, and Rachel is still fun to hold - even if I did get in a bit of trouble for knocking her on the head.

Until next time.
