Children's Museum

Maddie, Me & Ivy
I am breaking the rules here, but I just HAD to feed the squirrel a raisin!

The Center!

Here I am at the Center!

Mommy teaches Sign Language on Wednesdays and I get to play with a lot of other kids!

Got my hair trimmed today!

Mommy gave me a sucker b/c I was so good when she was getting HER hair done! She took this picture from her phone and sent it to family, including Uncle Jim, who apparently liked it and forwarded it to Alex! ;)

I drew a picture of Mommy!

Fun at the Children's Museum!

There is soooo much to do here! We love going to the Children's Museum!

Playing with Mrs. Potato Head!

                                                                                        

This is perfect for me right now...thanks Ms. Vicki!  :)

Helping Mommy cook!

 I helped Mommy make the fillig for a phyllo appetizer today...I stirred it all together!

Art Museum

Mommy and I went to the Family First Saturday at the Art Museum with Tami & Maya. 

 Mommy & I worked on an art project together.  I got to use a glue stick!

 Then I ran up and down this room with my friend Maya!

 

 We had so much fun!!!

"That's my friend".

Feet warmers

Mommy told me I needed to get sox on to keep my feet warm, but I thought it would be more fun to put them into my coat...

Magnadoodle Faces Artwork!

I LOVE my magnadoodle!  I am getting almost as good as Daddy at drawing people!  Mommy & Daddy think this is impressive for me since I'm not quite 2 1/2 years old...I just think it's fun!

Crescent Beach

After dinner we went back to Crescent Beach!  It's a great place to go at Christmas...so many decorations, including reindeer, trains, Santas, snowmen, and much much more.  I got up in the big chair that Santa must have sat in.

Santa came!

 I got up this morning to a tree full of presents and a Gingerbread House that Santa brought!

 One of my favorite gifts...dressing up bear!

 Santa brought me what I asked for....a Baa Baa Black Sheep book!

 I LOVE the gingerbread house!

Another favorite that Mommy got me...a vintage 1974 Fisher Price school house!!!

Christmas Eve!

We're in Rochester to celebrate Christmas with my Grandma Stanton and the rest of Daddy's family! 

I am busy coloring but you can see her tree in the background. 

Opening Nana & Popi's gift!

Starting out sweet and cautious! 

 Yeay!!!  So excited about this divided plate, it's my favorite to eat off of (no kidding!).

Now I am signing "eat" - I KNOW what this plate is for...and I love it!

On a cold winter day

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Eskimo girl Daddy got me last year for Christmas!  First thing today I had to turn her on and then feed her.  Then I asked Mommy to write "eskimo" for me.  I also can now "sign" eskimo!

Here's another drawing I did on my magnadoodle.  I told Mommy "Look!  Balloons!".  She was impressed and had to take a picture of it before I erased it.

Stylin'

 I love fun clothes, shoes and boots.  I found these snow boots tonight and HAD to wear them, even tho I wasn't going out in the snow, I am actually headed to bed in my Santa jammers. 

20th Century Theatre Holiday Event

 Here I am running back from visiting Steve and Astra before the program began.

And now I am running around with my friend Stella.

Look what I drew Mommy!

I showed Mommy that I drew my FOOT!

Helping Mommy bake today!

 What a helper I am smashing up the bananas for banana bread!  And, in my learning tower!

 I helped Mommy turn ON the KitchenAid mixer, dumped in the flour and really helped a whole bunch!  I love putting on my apron also!

After helping Mommy I had some serious time feeding Martha Doll and myself.  I LOVE cooking in my kitchen and preparing meals for my dolls/animals.

My new Learning Tower!

Here I am in my NEW Learning Tower!  It's awesome!  I can get on a level and cook with Mommy.  It's also kind of like a fort if I sit down, I like bringing my animals in here to feed them.
