Library Fun With Ahna

Our Mommy's took us to the new Vancouver Public Library today.  They have a a great kids area packed with all sorts of fun.  Mommy applied for a new library card and I checked out 3 books.  I can't wait to go back again soon.

Happy Thanksgiving

What's new:  I love "grabey" on my mashed potatoes.  It is "dawicious".  I am saying up to 6 word sentences now.  One of these days I will be diaper free.  I have been doing much better on my own without Mommy or Daddy pressuring me to use the potty.  Instead I am taking the initiative to go all by myself.

Christmas Card Preview

We took our 2011 holiday pictures today.  Here are a few from the session.  Nope, you don't get to see the official Christmas card picture yet.  It is a surprise.

Parker's Monster Mash

I had my first KIDS ONLY party tonight.  It was a monster themed birthday party for Parker.  Mommy was a bit uneasy when leaving and apparently she had every right to be.  Forty-five minutes after leaving she got "the call".  I was crying for Mommy and Brandie tried everything she could to make me feel better but nothing worked.  Mommy brought Daddy back to the party and decided after having cupcakes it was time to go.  I didn't really want to play with all the other kids.  I must have been overwhelmed with everything.  Maybe next year I will be more confident. 

What's new:  I am obsessed with Mickey Mouse Club House.  I know the intro to every episode by heart.  I can't say "marbles", instead I say "margles".  I can tell you my full name and how old I am.  I am learning how to do chores like, emptying the bathroom garbage and helping Mommy dry dishes and swap laundry.  I can not only do a perfect saumersault but can also do a bridge.  Mommy and Daddy think it is pretty amazing.  I am jumping a lot, jumping over things, jumping off of things and even galloping.

Daughter

We wish you the strength to
face challenges with confidence...
choose your battles carefully...
We wish you adventure 
on your journey 
and may you always
stop to help someone 
along the way...
Listen to your heart
and take risks carefully...
Remember how much
you are loved...
We are so proud of you.

Love,
Mommy & Daddy
