Turkey's Birthday!

My little brother is growing up! But if that means I get to eat cake, I'm all for it! And he needed me to help him play with all his new toys!

Check out these wild turkeys we saw a few weeks before Thanksgiving! They were running away I think! I told dad that I saw eagles but now that I'm getting a closer look, I'm pretty sure they were turkeys.

Artist boy!

Now that it is officially winter (it's snowed twice already!), we don't get to go outside to play. And boys cooped up in the house all day is just not a good combination. Especially when one of the boys...and I won't mention any names...is taking full advantage of being 2 for another month and a half (if you know what I mean)! Said boy likes to whine when he doesn't get his way, cry over silly things and not listen to what his mom tells him to do all the time. And it's not just listening, mom says I have to obey too! Anyway, after a few days of that she went out and bought lots of arts and crafts for us to do together! My favorite is painting! Although it's messy, it keeps me busy for at least an hour and that works out well for everyone! I also tried my hand at using glue. Mom had a great idea of making my name out of beans but as you can see, I took the glue and made my own creation! We have a big bag full of goodies and I can't wait to try everything!

Dancing boy!

The other day before my bath I found this great dress in mom's closet and of course I just had to try it on. Good news, it fit perfectly! So naturally I ran around the house singing, "Dancing and dancing and dancing" and spinning around.
And yes, I'm fully aware that this photo may come back to haunt me but for now, it's too much fun to pass up!

34 months!

Favorite things: eating, going to the park, eating, trapping (more to come on that), eating, veggie tales, eating...

Little Buddy!

Ezekiel is my little buddy! We have so much fun playing together. He likes to copy me and (to get attention) I like to copy him! We're usually pretty wild right before our bath. We jump on the bed, squeal at each other, chase each other and even tackle each other. I still like to take his toys but he's getting much better at letting mom know when I've done it so I don't get away with it as much any more. Luckily he can still be easily distracted so I can still get the toy I want... it's just a little harder.

Fall Hike

We found the coolest hiking trails right by our house and my parents took me there to go exploring! After loving the corn mazes so much mom thought I'd like to tramp through the woods too and boy was she right! I stepped on leaves, crunched pine cones and picked up sticks along the way. I even checked out some cool mushrooms and discovered bark on trees. My parents kept trying to get me to turn around but I wanted to keep exploring! And when I got tired I just insisted on Dad carrying me, I didn't see what the big deal was.

Happy Halloween!

Trick or Treat! Roarrrrr! That's me, the dragon! I picked out the costume all by myself. I had the best time trick or treating this year. Last year I just wore my costume around the house but this year I knew exactly what to do and couldn't wait. Mom said we had to wait until after dinner so at 9:00am I asked if I could have dinner! That didn't fly, I had to wait longer. But finally the time came and I was so pumped to walk around in my costume. All week I refused to wear the dragon hat but I wore it the whole time trick or treating. It had snowed earlier this week but halloween night was beautiful! I went up to doors, rang the bell and shouted, "Trick or treat, Roarrrr!" I scared everyone so much they gave me candy! My claws were so big I had trouble grabbing the candy but everyone was so nice to put some in my basket for me. I went down one road and made it halfway back up the other side when I said, "My little basket is all full now, we better go back home." Mom said we could go to a few more houses (and my basket really wasn't all that full...) but I told her just one more, I had had enough! I'm pretty sure she wanted more candy...So we went to two more houses and I think I was tired because when the people answered the doors I yelled, "Surprise" instead of "trick or treat". O'well, it still worked. When I got home I got to eat one piece of candy before bed and I chose a lollipop! Yum!
