ZOO again!

Yesterday I went to the zoo with my friends Luke and Tyler. I stayed awake the whole time we were there. It was pretty cold, so we only went to Rivers Edge. I got to see Raja and Ellie and all the other elephants. I also got to see some hippos and 2 little black bears. Mommy also got me a stuffed tree frog that we named Leap. Luke's mommy thinks that it looks pretty scary because of it's bright orange eyes, but I like chewing on it.After the zoo, we came home for a bit but then we went on a hunt for a frog roly poly because Homer ate the one that the easter bunny got for me. I slept almost the entire trip especially because mommy got lost and we were in the car for a long time. Daddy was very happy when he got home that mommy found another frog.I decided last night that I didn't want to sleep in my own bed. I wanted to cuddle with mommy so I spent most of the night in bed with mommy and daddy. Mommy keeps telling me that I will have to sleep in my own bed...but I keep telling her we'll see.I know mommy is very tired today so I'm going to go to bed for a little bit.OUT

My weekend

On Saturday, mommy, daddy and I went to Suson Park to see the farm animals. I slept most of the time, but I woke up in the barn with the horses and cows. They are smelly!! I'm glad we didn't stay too long.On Sunday, after church, mommy and I went to see Aunt Renee, Uncle Brad, Jake, Cole and Cooper to celebrate Cooper's first birthday. I had lots of fun smiling at everyone. I really liked Cooper's swing. Cooper even gave me a little push when it slowed down. Cooper even let me borrow his exersaucer. I really like standing in it and playing with the toys. I like making noise with the beads. It's lots of fun! I'll have mommy post pictures of me in it soon.Tomorrow mommy says that we are going to the zoo with Tyler and Luke if it doesn't rain. I can't wait to show Luke all the animals.That's all for now...don't forget to sign my guestbook to let me know you came for a visit.OUT

Sad day:(

Today was a sad day for mommy. On our way to Target, she saw some mail trucks pulled off on the side of the road. She realized that it was for Pfc. James F. Costello III, an Oakville HS graduate who died over in Iraq. And even though Mommy didn't know him, she pulled off into a parking lot and took me out of my carseat so we could watch the funeral processional. There were lots of people driving by. Some smiled and waved at me but I know mommy was sad. There were two girls waving an American flag and some other people holding a flag up. Mommy gave me a big hug and told me that she hopes that I will never be forced into the armed services. She also told me how much she loves me. It was neat seeing all the motorcycles going by. Mommy said that they were all veterans of wars and they were paying their respect to Pfc. James F. Costello III.I hope that I never am forced to go to war. I can't imagine mommy and daddy being so sad.OUT

My first trip to the St. Louis ZOO

Today mommy and I met up with Tyler and his mommy at the ZOO. It was the first time that I have ever been to a zoo. I saw peguins, puffins, apes, tigers, bears, giraffes and a bunch of other animals. I had lots of fun. It was warm though. I'm glad that mommy kept me covered most of the time. I didn't get sunburned at all. Mommy is really red though.I am all pooped out. I hope we get to go again with more of my friends.OUT!Oh I have some pictures of me at the zoo in my photo albums.

My first Easter!

On Saturday, I spent some time with daddy while mommy had some 'mommy time'. I missed mommy and I let daddy know about it! I think daddy was ready to cry himself. He wanted mommy home. Daddy and I met up with mommy and great grandma and my aunts, uncle and cousins for an Easter meal. I slept most of the time, but when I woke up, mommy took me out of my carseat to see everyone. I had a little bit of an accident on mommy. I really liked seeing everyone. I really like my Cousin Chris. He gave me some pudding. It was pretty good.That night grandma came over and we went to church. I slept the entire time! Mommy and daddy were so surprised. I'm not sure why since daddy plays his music louder then they did at church. :) I felt like I was at home.On Sunday, I got up early to see what the Easter Bunny brought me. He gave me an Easter Basket, a bunny, a frog and a book about the first Easter. After we went to church, we went to Brunch and I got to meet the Easter bunny again. Check out my photo album because I added some pictures of me and the easter bunny. After brunch, mommy,daddy, grandma and I went to Forest Park and took some pictures. It is so pretty there but it was very windy! My hat almost blew off and I really like my hat so I'm glad grandma caught it for me.Later, while daddy did some lawn work, mommy took me outside to watch. Someday I'm going to cut the grass for daddy. It looks fun.Stay tuned for more pictures this week. Mommy says that we might do to the zoo later this week. I love animals. I hope we get to see some frogs.OUT

Easter Bunny

Yesterday Luke and I met the Easter Bunny and you know what...he wasn't scary at all. Mommy was going to take me to see Daddy, but I had an accident so we came home and played. I really like being outside. I can't wait to be old enough to play outside with all my friends.Hope everyone has a hoppy easter and be sure to checkout my new photo albums.OUT

Busy week!

Wow...I didn't realize it had almost been a week since I last wrote. I have been very busy! I forgot to tell you, I met David Robertson. In case you don't know, he's the conductor of the St. Louis Symphony. Mommy and Daddy really like him. The last time I heard him conduct, it was pretty muffled. Maybe mommy and daddy will take me a concert again now that it won't be so muffled. I went to my friend Ernie's birthday party. It was the first birthday party I ever went to. I can't wait until my birthday. But mommy and daddy keep saying that they don't want me growing up too fast. After the party, Mommy, Daddy and I went to meet some of daddy's friends from work. I got to see my friend Marc and I also met a new friend. Her name was Nora. Even though I wasn't too happy at first, once my tummy was full, Marc, Nora and I talked for a bit before I got too tired and I fell asleep while mommy was holding me.On Sunday,I got to play with my friend Luke while our mommies and daddies talked and watched LOST. I had a lot of fun. Daddy took some pictures of me and Luke so I will have to post them soon for you to see.

Tuesday mommy took me to my doctor's office because she thought I was pulling on my ears. I was, but not because they hurt. I was pulling on them because daddy showed me where they were and I was trying to show mommy and daddy that I knew where they were. The doctor did say that I have something called Reflux. So now I have to take Mylanta and Zantac. I like the Mylanta, but I don't like the Zantac at ALL. It takes yucky!! Mommy gives me Eeyore after I take it so that makes it a little bit better.

Today when Mommy took me outside for a walk, I laughed and laughed. It's fun being outside. I can't wait until I can play outside.Mommy says that tomorrow I'm going to see Luke and Jenn and we are going to see the Easter bunny. I like bunnies but this sounds a little different then my little bunny. I hope he's not scary.Well mommy says it's medicine time, then off to bed.OUT

Tuesday/Wednesday

On Tuesday, mommy and I had lunch with her friends from St. John's. I slept almost the whole time. When I woke up, mommy let Mandy fed me. Mandy did ok, but I really just wanted mommy. I hope Mandy wasn't upset.

I decided last night that I didn't want to sleep in my crib. I woke mommy and daddy up at 11p, 2a and 5a. At 2am, mommy put me in bed with her and I got to eat anytime I wanted. I was comfy all snuggled up to mommy but I don't think mommy and daddy were all that comfy. Mommy and daddy seemed pretty tired today. Daddy played with me when mommy went to work this morning. I was happy for the most part, but then I realized mommy wasn't around and I got cranky. I got to go to grandma B's house though and see mommy when she got off work. After mommy fed me, I took a long nap and then mommy and I played and she sang me "Take me out to the ballgame." I like that song.Well it's bedtime so I'm OUT

Sunday

Today mommy and I went to church by ourselves because daddy was too tired. I'm not sure why HE was tired...it isn't like I woke up at 5am and stayed awake until daddy put me into bed with mommy so mommy could feed me. I was happy then. :)After church mommy and I had brunch with Aunt Lisa, Ernie and Aunt Monica. I really like Ernie. He let me play with his toy car. Tonight mommy took me down to the basement because it was raining really hard and the sky was a green color. But we were all ok and safe.Well, I'm ready for bed so I'm OUT
