My Princess Ride

I never get tired of my vehicles. Even after Mia and I spent all of Saturday night pushing each other around, the first thing I wanted to do when I woke up was push my car around. Daddy even  needs to replace my batteries because all the cool sounds have faded and sound all tinny. Every car should have a piano as a dashboard option, distracting, but so worth it.

My Supper Club

Well, nearly a year later, I conned M&D into having another round of supper club at our house. My ruse worked well, it was really a rather obvious ploy to get Chad and Angie to bring my friend Mia over to play with me. First, we started with the Church Hill Irish Festival, notice the green beads we're both wearing. Then, everyone made their way back to our house, some were more stumbly than others, Jason Russell. Anyway, while the adults played and ate, Mia and I were busy utilizing my myriad vehicles. I talked her into pushing me all over the house. Here's us heading out, then making the return trip. Blow up the picture so you can see exactly how good of a time we're having. We need to do supper club more often.

My Gal Sunny

For a week now, cousins' dog Sunny has come to stay with us while my cousins were in Disney. It is a perfect symbiotic relationship, Sunny is an attention hound, and I am fascinated by her, so I try to give her all the attention that she wants. Unfortunately, she mostly wants attention from M&D and doesn't pay a ton of attention to me. I love her anyway though and continually vie for her affection, which mostly results in me getting licked. Sunny is very interested in my toys, she is gentle with them, but there has been a constant migration of sea turtles and bears all over the house. Sunny didn't bring very many toys with her when she came, but this is Daddy and me on her bed, like my sea turtles, it constantly migrates and changes locations in the house. Sadly, Sunny is going home to her family today. Maybe we can get her to come stay with us again at some point.

My Reprisal

I got my new camera chip in the mail yesterday, they accidentally sent me a 4 GB chip instead of a 2 GB chip, but charged me the same price. Not sure how many pictures you can fit on 4 gigs, but I think it's a lot, I better get busy. Mommy helped me out this morning by snapping some pictures of me and Daddy playing on the floor. Uncle Nick told me that the old chip was a total loss, no pictures of me in the snow until next year, it'll be all new pictures heretoforward. 

My Pictureless Post

Normally, I add my favorite pictures of the week and then write about them. Daddy recently rendered that impossible for the time being. Daddy was eating chips and took the card out of the camera at the same time so that I could blog, silly Daddy actually popped the wrong chip into his mouth and bit down and didn't realize until he felt the wrong kind of crunch. I don't know if the pictures are recoverable, certainly not by the technical wizards in my house, but I have ordered a new camera chip post haste. It's sad too, because I had lots of things to write about. My first snow day, Daddy's surprise birthday, how Sunny the dog is staying with us for the week b/c Charlotte and Emily are in Disney World, lots of fun pictures to go along.  Maybe I'll write about them pictureless (it loses something, I know) and then back add them if they can be recovered, but take lots of pictures when I get the new chip. At least prices have come down. Daddy told me he paid $25 for that 1 gig chip 3 years ago, and I just ordered a 2 gig chip for 9.99 and free shipping. Sorry, I'll be back in business before long.

My First Stand

Everyone always talks or writes about their Last Stand. No one ever mentions their first stand, but I am about to break that taboo. For several months I've been able to pull myself into a standing position, but now I've realized that I can do it without the aid of stationary objects, that I can just stand up, when and where I want. M&D tried very hard to capture this on film, and were only moderately successful. On the plus side though, Mommy did manage to snag Daddy laying some sugar on me. 

My Gene Simmons

The whole family packed up to go skiing this weekend, the problem was, that Mother Nature was non-cooperative. After two 60+ days, and one rainy, 45 degree Saturday, M&D and friends Laura and Jason decided that skiing could wait for another year, that wineries were the order of the day. So we set out for a couple, you can see Daddy backpacking me here at Afton Mtn Vineyard, we went from there to Veritas, which Daddy thinks is a clever name for a winery. We went home for dinner, and I guess I was being silly with everyone else because Daddy snapped me doing my best Gene Simmons of KISS impression.
