Busy Busy Busy

Today we bring you a new edition of Lifestyles of the Young and Diapered. A modern reality show based on, you guessed it, ME ME ME.

I have been a very busy baby going here and there and just having all sorts of new experiences. In the last two weeks, Mommy has gone back to work and is starting school again next week. I miss her but Grammy is a sucker and lots of fun so life could be worse.

We also moved into a new house. It is huge compared to the last one but I still got the smallest room. I don't quite understand it, don't they know how many toys I will have to put in there? But since I am the shortest person in the house and can not yet play with toys I guess they aren't too worried. Mommy will get pictures of the new house for you soon.

I got a box with all sorts of clothes and goodies this last week from my Ger Gram And Great Aunt Jennifer and I thnk them very much. Will be doing photo shoots of various Outfits in the days to come. I'll bet you just can't wait..

For tonights Photo Enjoyment I bring you family pictures.
This first one is too big to put on the blog so you will have to click the lick to see it.

As you can tell I like to smile. Grammy has more pictures of me that she took this week but doesn't have them ready for me to post yet. She promises to work on it over the weekend.

You guys are relentless

All Grammy and Mommy hear are more pictures, more pictures. Mommy told grammy that she created a monster by starting this blog. At least I am not the monster, I am cute and getting cuter by the day so I can totally understand why you want more pictures of me.

This week my new tricks include trying to snap my fingers. Grammy does this in front of me all the time and it sounds really cool but try as I might I can't get my fingers to work quite right yet, and I do mean yet, cause I am going to keep practicing and someday I will get it right. Grammy is also teaching me how to dance. She dances over the top of me and I wiggle my legs in time to the music. Last week we were dancing to girls gone wild when Grandpa walked in and told Grammy that Mommy would beat me if I really was in Girls Gone Wild. Something about being topless but I am topless all the time so I don't understand that either. There is a lot about big people I don't understand. Like how they always have other things to do besides play with me. I am the most important person so how could anything else need to be done when I need to be played with. I am very good at interrupting their other chores with a good yell. Yelling is something I am very good at. That and Eating.

Mommy is officially back at work and missing me. I miss her too. She needs to win the lottery so she can stay home with me all the time.

Here are the pictures for the week which I know you have all been waiting for.


Me Giggling



Still Smiling


This is my seriously Cute Please pick Me up Look.

This week in the life of the young and beautiful

It's official, I slept through the night from 11PM to 6AM. Not sure what the big deal was but mom seems happy so we will just let her stay that way. Grammy and Gramps have both gotten giggles out of me. They are getting harder and harder to keep in so I guess since the secret is out I will just giggle more. There are worse things in life. I am drooling lots and lots, mommy and grammy think I may be starting to get my first tooth but they said it will be a few months before it comes through. That sounds like a lot of drool. Went and visited my Nana Rose and Tata Santos and Auntie Jenny on Friday Had lots and lots of fun but Mom forgot to bring her camera. Soon I will Have picstures of them also. Onto the partI know you all want.

This weeks pictures:

Starting Monday or Tuesday - Here is me being a fashion model for Baby Gap






Am I adorable or What

Here is me sleeping later that same day, Now I am basically naked because it is hot here in Corpus and because I spit up all over my pretty clothes



Last but not Least Here is a picture of me and Grammy from Friday



I like my Grammy - she sings to me and talks to me and does the silliest things.

KIDiddles: Song Lyrics: Good Morning Merry Sunshine

KIDiddles: Song Lyrics: Good Morning Merry Sunshine: "

I used to sing a version of this song to your mommy every morning when I woke her up. Never could remember all the Lyrics so I thought I would post the here for her.

Good morning, merry sunshine,
How did you wake so soon?
You've scared the little stars away,
And shone away the moon.
I watched you go to sleep last night,
Before I stopped my play,
How did you get way over there,
And, pray, where did you stay?

I never go to sleep, dear,
I just go 'round to see
My little children of the East,
Who rise to watch for me.
I waken all the birds and bees,
And flowers on my way,
Then last of all, the little child
Who stayed out late to play."
