Saturday errands!

Daddy and I decided to surprise Mommy with pancakes today! She LOVED it. We woke her up by bringing them in to her. I was in charge of carrying the napkin because Daddy didn't want me spilling the plate over (insulting, but whatever.). We all ate pancakes in Mom and Dad's bed, it was so fun! I loved it! I'm still not allowed to have syrup so my pancakes were served with raspberries, but that's okay-- I don't like using silverware and Mommy would be mad if I had syrup-y hands in her bed. It was just a great start to the day-- watching Daddy make pancakes and then surprising Mommy in bed with them. :)

All the Pisels went grocery shopping today. And, if I do say so myself, I was sooooooo good. No screaming to walk instead of ride in the cart, no grabbing things off the shelves. I mean, I did inspect everything I could reach that was already IN the cart, but as a member of this household and one who will be eating the food, I had a right to, yes? I don't love grocery shopping but it sure is more fun when Daddy's there! Mommy did find me this really cool cheese that comes in fun shapes, but Daddy's stole the show. He found some good bargains that I wholly approved of. I high fived him and voiced a solid, "Yeah! Dada!!" when he found a particularly inexpensive brand of coffee. The people in the aisle were impressed with his find too, I think, because they laughed and cheered after I did.

After that we all went home and ate some lunch. They had sandwiches or something, I don't really know because they didn't share. I, however, had my special cheese, some turkey, and kale chips. Yum! (Auntie Annie, I am telling you about my vegetables. I will do this more often now, okay?) Then... okay, yeah, I was cranky. It was nap time. So I slept for two hours and had a lot more energy than the parentals expected.

We read, we played with blocks, we (Daddy and I) jammed a little on the guitar. I had boiled carrots and toast points for dinner. Boring. We read some more. Mommy forced me to snuggle on the couch for twenty minutes after she saw something sad on TV. And then jammies and time for bed.

So that was my day. It was awesome. :) I hope yours was too.

Happy Veteran's Day!!

I haven't posted in a while. Mostly, because my life is very boring. I get up, I eat, I play, I nap, I find a private place to poo and then let Mommy know it's time to be changed, I eat some more, I play some more, and so on and so forth. My days have kind of been a blur lately.

Eating lunch today. Yum.
Daddy had the day off today so we went out to eat. He wanted a free meal at Applebees but there was a line going out the door so we hit up McDonald's-- Daddy got a McRib, Mommy got a grilled chicken sandwich, and I got a cheeseburger. Luckily, Mommy doesn't feel well and Daddy and I got to share her sandwich. It was good.



It has been pretty rainy lately so I've spent most of my time indoors. Mommy and I read a lot, and I like that, but I wish she didn't have her "five-times-and-then-wait-twenty-minutes" rule. I could read Babies on the Move all day every day. I don't get why she isn't as into it as I am! Oh well, I still get to read it with her upwards of twenty times a day :)

I spend a lot of my time climbing. I pride myself in my ability to climb anything. Mommy says it's "terrifying" and "the worst thing ever to watch" but I don't really care. Climbing is fun-- chairs, tables, book cases. Just fun. And jumping down from somewhere high? What a rush! There is nothing better than climbing something high, leaping off, and climbing it all over again. Really. You should try it. But not in front of your mom because it will probably freak her out.

Ben is still my best buddy. He's getting better about not running away when I try to hug him either. Today he let me snuggle him for a good ten minutes! It. Was. Awesome.

Oh. My teeth are still coming in. Ouch. I just want the pain to stop. Sigh. I'm told it will be over soon... but it seems I'm told a lot of things lately.

But worry not, dear readers. Although I haven't been posting as much I am as happy and awesome as ever. I will make an effort to post more. AUNTIE. ANNIE. This one's looking at you.

Phew!

Man, have I been busy lately! Grandpa John came up over Halloween weekend for a visit and got Daddy a new, noisy guitar! I have a lot of fun jamming with Daddy. 

Halloween was great! I only went to a couple houses but I got to greet the other trick or treaters when they came to our door. Mom was worried people would be afraid to come get our candy with there being a guard lion at the door but we had a lot of visitors! I hugged the ones with the best costumes. What can I say, I'm a sucker for my animal brethren.

Today was AWESOME. A nice lady came by to see how smart I am. Answer? Crazy smart. Advanced in fine and gross motor skills, problem solving skills, AND social skills. My name is Sophie and I am a super genius. After she left I had a snack and then I drew a few pictures for Mom and Dad. That was fun but Mommy teased me for getting ink on my face. I don't really care what she thinks, I feel pretty.




And now, it's nap time for both me and Mommy. Until next time!
