Fun with Granny & Grandpa

Granny and Grandpa came from England to visit me and we had such a good time! We went to the park, the aquarium, and a street fair. I took them to see my school, they came to my swimming lesson and we had a party with the neighbors. Papa & Nana came up for a couple of days, too, and we all went to Pike Place Market and out to dinner.








Granny & Grandpa took a cruise to Alaska on a"ginormous boat" (that's a new word Granny taught me) and after they got back to Seattle they stayed with us again and we had more fun. Granny & Grandpa even babysat me twice - and they did a really good job! Granny danced with me and played let's pretend. We sang nursery rhymes, played games and read lots of books. Granny & Grandpa bought me a doctor's kit and I took Grandpa's blood pressure and checked out everyone's heartbeat. Sometimes it was nice to just quietly together on the front porch reading. It's a bit quiet around here now that they're gone (although Mommy & Daddy don't think so), but we'll see them again when we go to England for Christmas.






I got a rose painted

Writing Thank-You Notes

I had such a great birthday and got so many wonderful presents - and I'm still getting some in the mail now! Mommy helped me write my thank-you notes and I "signed" each one. I love to draw with crayons, pens and pencils. My favorite colors are yellow and pink.

Drive Time

One of my favorite things to do is sit in the car and pretend to drive. Sometimes I drive to the grocery store, sometimes to the zoo, and sometimes all the way to Arizona! I always wear my seatbelt and one of my buddies is usually strapped into my carseat. There are so many buttons and levers to play with, I sit in the car for 30 minutes or more until I've reached my destination and I'm ready to get out.
