Christmas

Hi everyone. I know it has been too long since I posted anything. I have been busy at the baby sitters as well as learning new things.
I have learned how to climb on boxes. They are so much fun. Though the box I was climbing on mommy moved cuz it got wet but that is ok cuz now that it is gone I just taught my self how to use the couch to pull my self up. It is a lot better than the box cuz I stand right up and I can reach things up there too, like the newspaper when it is there and Nanuk when she is sleeping there. Hehe. I still zoom around the house but I am a lot faster now, mommy and daddy can barely keep up with me. I also have a new favorite pass time. I just found out that there is a real cool bowl on the floor. I have see the dogs drinking out of it so I figured it must be something good. I was right, it has water in it!! It is just like my bath except I don't lay in the water. I have lots of fun splashing in it. One time I splashed so much that the floor was all wet, and the cupboard was wet and I was all wet too. When mommy and daddy are in the kitchen some times I keep them busy just trying to keep me away from the water.
Another fun thing I do is clap my hands with daddy and cheer with him too. It is lots of fun when he gets it right. Some times I also like to just hear how loud I can make my voice, then mommy and daddy try to beat me but I just go louder so I win.
It is also fun to do it when daddy bounces me on his knee. It makes my voice sound funny.

The last few days here have been busy but also lots of fun. On Sunday aunt Nicole and uncle Sid came over and they brought Simba and Sora and Luna as well as their foster dog Cadence. Then grandma came over with Paul and they brought Wriggly. With Madison and Nanuk that made 7 dogs in my house. Wow. I had more dogs than I could watch. Madison and Nanuk were real happy to see everyone too though they still are not too sure of Luna and Cadence was a little too excited some times for then but in the house they all got along together.

Yesterday was a fun day. Mommy was home all day cuz she didn't have to work and then we got to open all the things that were under the tree. I got a lot of new clothes and some new toys. Now I have my own remote control. It sings and makes noise but I think I have to program it cuz it doesn't control the t.v yet but I will fix that. I also got a real cool bike. I can either sit on it or when my legs get a little stronger I can walk behind it. Right now I like sitting on it and listening to the music that plays. I am learning how to push myself but I am not too good at that yet but daddy will push me on it and we go zoom zoom zoom from the kitchen to the living room and back. He also showed me how to honk the horn to get things out of my way. I like to honk it at mommy and Nanuk. It is fun to see them move as I go scooting by. After seeing all the stuff I guess I had Santa Claus all wrong. Now I feel bad for crying when I saw him. Next time I see him I will give him a big smile.
Oh yeah! Can you guess what we had for supper last night? I'll give you a hint, it was my most favorite food. That is right TURKEY!!! This Christmas thing is lots of fun, everyone over, and presents and turkey too. I think it is one of my favorite days so far. I don't know what else is coming up but it has to be good to beat Christmas. And mommy says that tomorrow we are going to see my great granddad and great grandma. I like seeing them as well as my uncle Jon an aunt Trish and Erin and Amy. It is going to be so much fun. Then one more week and I get to see my grandma and grandpa ( daddy's mommy and daddy) and my aunt Tracy and uncle Rob and Emily, Cassandra and Shannon. It is going to be so much fun I can't wait.
Well I should be going to bed.
I hope you all had a merry Christmas
Talk to you all later.

Brooke.

Wow

I know I know, it has been too long since I wrote anything here. I am sorry but I have been a busy busy baby. What with playing at the babysitter's then playing with mommy and daddy as well as Madison and Nanuk and keeping the foster puppy in line I have been super busy.

I don't even know where to start. Daddy is back to work now, which means that I go to the sitters every day. It is so much fun there. Now that I move around a lot I keep the sitter real busy. And they have a real cool pet, it is a cat. How cool is that? Don't let Madison and Nanuk know this but I really like the cat. I think that that is why Madison sniffs me when I come home, which I don't mind cuz some times she sneaks in a small kiss when no one is looking.
The one thing I miss though is going to under one club with daddy, but he said that he will take me next week when he is not at work. I can't wait.
My aunt Teri came out to my house last weekend. It was lots of fun to see her. She took me to the city on Saturday while mommy was at work. We had lots of fun shopping and we got to see aunt Nicole too.

Oh yeah, one evening mommy came home from work a little early and mommy and daddy bundled me up in my snow suit and put me in my stroller. I thought we were going for a walk with the doggies but when we left we didn't take then. I didn't know what was going on. We walked out to the main street and just stood there. It was strange cuz there was a lot of other people standing on the sidewalk too. After a while we heard a siren and saw flashing lights, but they were not going very fast. When they Finaly got up to us I saw that there was a lot of people walking or riding on the back of trailers and they all had flashing lights on them. Some people came up to us and gave us candy. I let daddy have it cuz I can't have candy yet. One person came up and gave me a big stuffed raccoon it was so cool. It is almost as big as I am. (Nanuk really likes it but she can't have it). There were even a couple of tiny horses puling carts. They were so cute, and someone put antlers on them. One even tried to come over and see me but the person in the cart would not let him get too close. The one shiny trailer thing ( mommy called it a float) had a big man on it with a big white beard and dressed all in red. Mommy told me that he was Santa Claus. I don't know who he is it he sure was happy.
Mommy told me later that it was the Santa Claus parade. He must be a really famous person to have all that fallow him around.

A few days after the parade mommy and daddy took me to the mall. And wouldn't you know it, that Santa dude was there too. He was sitting on a really big chair and children were sitting on his lap. I thought that was kinda cool, but then mommy and daddy put me on his lap then they moved away! I was not too sure about that, but then I saw the camera and let them get a couple of pictures but not too many. I wanted to get out of there. I am not too sure about that Santa guy.

So yeah. I am still not crawling on my hands and knees, though I do get up on then and rock back an forth, but wow can I move in my belly. One of my favorite things to do is play with the gate mommy put up in the doorway to the kitchen. It is there to keep Iggy our foster puppy in the kitchen while I am playing on the floor. Though I usually go over to it and play with him through the gate. On Sunday Iggy had one of my slippers on the dog bed while I was on the floor so I cralles over there and played with him. We played a little tug of war and I am happy to say that I won, though I did give it back to him. We then passed it back and forth to each other. He is still a young puppy and has to learn how to carry the long bones though. He was carrying one past me the other day on his way to the kitchen and bonked me on the head while he walked by. It didn't hurt but I did tell him to be more careful next time.

Last night daddy took me to his Christmas party at work. I slept on the way there and was still tired when we got there so at first I didn't want to give any smiles. But once I woke up it was fun to watch everyone's reaction when I gave them one of my big smiles. I think I was the hit of the party. I was even nice to daddy and let him eat his dinner. Though I was eating my cookie. We left when I was starting to get tired but as we were leaving we walked past where the music comes out of and I started dancing in daddy's arms. It was a fun night and I slept the hole drive home then when we got home I got to spend time with mommy. By that time I was not tired and when mommy and daddy tried to go to bed I kept playing on their bed, though after close to an hour of playing I got tired again and let mommy out me in my bed. Also when I got home I had so much energy that mommy stood me up in front of the couch and I held my self up and played with Nanuk while she laid on it. Daddy thinks I will walk before I crawl on my hands and knees.

Well I should get to sleep now. I have a busy day tomorrow. Don't tell daddy that I was using his phone while he was asleep ok.
Oh yeah I almost forgot, remember that tree mommy and daddy were talking about putting in the living room? Well they put it up. I didn't know they has a tree in a box downstairs. I wonder what else is down there. The tree also has lights one it, not that is just cool. And they are not the only ones that have one, my babysitter has one in her house too? I didn't think that she knew how much I liked trees.
I am still trying to find out about this Christmas thing though. I'll let you know when I find more out about it.
Talk to you later. Night night.
