Visit with Grandma Patty
posted on 03/18/2008
We went and saw the Easter Bunny tonight with Grandma Patty at the mall. I got out of my stroller and stood there pointing and smiling at him. Then Mommy did something strange and put me on his lap. What the heck??? I cried really hard and some lady was trying to make me smile and showing me some stupid stuffed animal. I'm not going to smile when I'm sitting on some strange "things" lap! The picture will be up as soon as we get it scanned. It was really fun hanging out with Grandma Patty and we got pretzels from Auntie Ann's. Did you know that Grandma had never had one? We are so proud to have gotten her her very first one!

Happy St Patrick's day. Mommy doesn't celebrate it though. She just wanted to pass along the wishes for those that do.
We had a very busy weekend!! Uncle Keith, Aunt Alyssa and Cousin Jacob came to visit. We played a lot and went to the Amerks/Senators game on Saturday. Check out the photos for our great seats!
Our totsite is plumb full, so pictures will start to disappear from my early days to make room for the current pictures. If you are looking for a specific picture, let Mommy know and she'll get it out for you.
Mommy wants to go visit the Easter Bunny again. We'll get that up as soon as we go. Mommy is hoping for another really cute picture like we had with Santa.
Cousin Jacob gave me his old Sabres jersey. It was already signed by Mark Mancari and after the game we had Marek Zagripan and Dillon Hunter sign it. I was pretty weirded out that there were people writting on my clothes but Mommy said it's ok for them to do it. Especially for when they make the big team! I had a lot of fun at the hockey game even thought the Amerks lost in OT.

Miss Sonyea is a smarty pants! She's been calling for Mom or Dad as she sees fit! In the morning, she calls for DAD... after awhile when he doesn't go in there, she calls for MOM! That is my cue to get out of bed.
She does a few things on command, kisses, hugs, high five, wave, get Vicky and "come here."
She's also started to repeat some things we say. The other day she repeated "hot dog" from Mickey's Clubhouse and last night she was copying the "ahhchoo." See the video page for that cuteness. The video is bad because she should have been in bed an hour before so we had the lights out. But you can surely hear her.
We've started working with her on brushing her teeth. When she lays down to get her diaper changed we give her the tooth brush. If she doesn't do it right away, we show her how and then she does it. She is still stuck at 6 teeth. 4 on top, 2 on the bottom.

Today, mommy was busy! I helped her make chocolate chip/peanut butter cookies and I helped her with the laundry. I became very cranky when it was time for my bottle and I let mommy know she was late!! She was in the middle of making the cookies and couldn't sit with me and cuddle like we always do when it's time for a bottle. Because she was busy, I gave myself the bottle. Check out the photos. Mommy was pretty sad to see that I'm capable of doing it myself, but she knows that I'm growing nicely and am becoming more and more independent (even though I've been really, really clingy lately!)

Uncle Keith and Jacob are coming this weekend to visit so mommy was cleaning out the spare bedroom so they don't have to sleep on the floor. We did the sheet and comforter laundry and even flipped the mattress. Then we vaccuumed and then we cleaned out the vaccuum. Did you know that kids are NOT allowed to play with screwdrivers even though you can see them on Handy Manny all the time? Mommy yelled at me because I kept stealing it. She also took apart the swing and stored it. That made her very sad as well. How come I can't play with and chew on the batteries? I just don't understand why they don't let me do that kind of stuff. What can it hurt? Mommy said it's because it has yucky stuff inside that I could get very sick off of it I got it open somehow. I was a very good girl today while Mommy was so busy! She was so proud of me. Oh and I had a few bites of the hard boiled egg that Mommy made. I really don't like it. She said we'll keep trying it. I didn't have any yogart today either and my poop was pretty solid. Maybe the yuckies are gone from my tummy? We'll keep trying to eat some yogart though because it's good stuff.

Mommy and Daddy went on a date tonight. I stayed with Great Aunt Leslie and tonight I had a great time. Aunt Leslie said I was a very good girl and hardly cried at all. Just a little bit when Daddy put me down and again when Mommy and Daddy walked in the door. I colored with a pen, I have the marks on my hand to prove it. I ate a little bit of food, drank a little bit from my sippy and played with Cousin Elizabeth.
Mommy and Daddy gave Aunt Leslie heart attacks by showing her how they throw me around. I laugh, so it's a good thing. I even took a few steps for her. I'll be back next Tuesday Aunt Leslie, Mommy wants to go out again!! She needs breaks just like I do!
I am starting to feel a little bit better. I still have a cough and a few random sneezes. Mommy made an appointment with an Ear Nose Throat Specialist to check out my left ear. Mommy said she doesn't want me to have any problems with my hearing and speech so we are going to have it checked as soon as possible. The earliest appt is Friday March 14th. We will update then. I am starting to eat a little bit more than I was when I was sick. I'm still drinking my bottles good and slowly adding more foods. I've been eating my yogart the last few days like a good girl to help combat the ill effects from the antibiotics.
