November Update

Hi there everyone. I have been a happy little lady lately. We went shopping this weekend and even hung up our Christmas lights. What fun!

Never too old for a little Peek-A-...

BOO!

Also still a big fan of chocolate cupcakes.

And thought these photos are a little bit late. Here I am right before my trick-or-treating outing. And yes, that is an Elmo bucket. I really like Elmo.

Talk to you all again real soon.

Pumpkins, Hockey, Pumpkins, Gymnastics, Pumpkins, State Fair, and More Pumpkins!

It must be October! So many pumpkins these days...

Here is a quick photo update:

Beautiful me in front of a house of pumpkins!

Doesn't this shot look artsy?

My first hockey game. Go Stars!

We had so much fun with our friends, Terri and Jeff!

Looking for the perfect pumpkin.

(Don't worry, I found three.)

My first day of gymnastics lessons. I get to go every week and play on the trampoline, bars, balance beam, foam pit, and floor course. It is really fun. I also really like my coach.

They even have a slide!

Picking out a few pumpkins for the house.
This one was REALLY heavy, but I am getting strong these days.

Pulling my choices to the car (yes...we bought that many pumpkins!)

The State Fair of Texas was in town. It was tons of fun.

We ate fried PB&J sandwiches, learned about Texas farming, and had a great day.

I also got to see so many animals -

a kangaroo, a longhorn, pigs, chickens, a tortoise, and here I am with a goat.


And then we rode the train back home. It was a great day!

That's all for now folks. See ya later!

Hawaii Fun

Here are some photos of my great Hawaiian adventure!

At the luau with a really good dancer. I even had a hula lesson and got a hula skirt - it was so much fun.

Playing in the ocean (or as I liked to call it "Hawaii" - yes the ocean was "Hawaii," which probably is technically correct...) with a coconut I found floating around.

Chilling in my kayak. Nobody would lower me into the waves though. I'm not sure why, I could have handled it!
Mom loves the beach hair here...

Playing in my pool overlooking the beach - I loved this! Great idea Opa Horst!

I really like water.



Playing with my Zhu Zhu Pet in the house - thank you Uncle Josh! This is my new favorite toy.

My First Trip to Disneyland!

I just got home from my very first trip to Disneyland and Hawaii! It was great. I even did well on the VERY long flights. Here are a few photos and a video from Disneyland.
(In case you were wondering, Hawaii photos are coming soon...)

We arrived the day that the park set out its Halloween decorations. It was very fun! Space Mountain and the Haunted Mansion even had special Halloween features. Although I was a little too short for Space Mountain, I did see Mickey Mouse in his costume!

I also met Cinderella,

and Ariel (I was enthusiastic on the autographs...),

and Princess Jasmine.

The ride lines were no bother for me. I just rode on Uncle Jonathan's foot.

While Princess Aurora was nice, I was more into my breakfast. They had PB&J Pizza!

We also went to Medieval Times. I loved my crown.

Just being cute. I am getting so big these days.

I was a little tired at the end of it all though...

On the monorail in my UT shirt with Daddy - Hook 'Em Horns!

Speeding around Autopia - perhaps my favorite ride - check out the video below.

And meting Eyeore - the face expresses my general sentiment at meeting the larger characters.

Finally, while I may be tall enough for Autopia (just barely...), I won't be getting mom or dad's keys anytime soon!

Austin visit, cleaning house, cheese puffs, and a BIG surprise - I have been busy!

Hey Everyone! I have been super busy lately...

We went down to Austin and I got to visit with my uncles, Brock and Zane. I love playing with them so much.

I discovered...

that I really....

really, really like cheese puffs!

I also really like the swiffer sweeper. I would push this thing around all day if I could.

And last, but not least, guess what!

Mom and Dad are building me a playhouse. Here is what we have so far - the goal is to open the doors in time for my second birthday. :-)!

One Hundred Degrees + Broken A/C = Hotel Fun!

For those of you who may not live in the Dallas area, it has been HOT. Very HOT. It has been over a hundred degrees almost every day this month. On top of that our air conditioner has not been happy. It broke a couple of weeks ago, so mom and dad packed up a bag, and we went to a hotel at the mall. It was pretty fun - shopping, eating, and sleeping in a very big bed. Then, the air conditioner broke again last weekend! I was already not feeling too well, so we packed up again. I have to say, for one hundred degree days, it has been pretty cool - lots of little mini weekend vacations (and now the air conditioner is fixed!).

Here are some photos:

Quick Photo Update...

Three Words - "Chocolate Fondue... Yum!"

I got a new doll - a Bitty Baby. This is her bed. I just wanted to try it out...

Getting ready for our big weekend adventure - the Circus.

Waiting for the train with Dad!
Riding the train to the circus and holding on tight!

REAL ELEPHANTS - I got SO excited!

Lunch downtown - I like to do everything by myself.

Vanilla Ice Cream - Also very yummy!

Talk to you all again soon!
