Sesame Street Live

I got to go to Sesame Street Live today. I LOVED it. I saw all of my friends (Big Bird, Cookie, Elmo, the Count, Bert and Ernie....they were all there!!). It was really, really, really fun!! I wish I could go again tomorrow.

Fun Friday

Mommy, Ben and I got to do some super-duper fun things yesterday. First, we went to Fun-N-Stuff. We played golf, jumped in the bounce house, and played in the ball pit. After that, we were going to roller skate, but Benny needed a nap so we had to go. When Ben woke up, mommy took us to the Rainforest. We stayed there until it closed. It was a really fun day!!

Finger Painting

I've been meaning to post pictures of Ben's first time finger painting. He made a HUGE mess, but he REALLY loved it!!





Amazone

We just got back from a fun filled evening at the Amazone. I sure love that place!!

Should Have Gotten Chinese

I had a pretty fun day today. I woke up, ate waffles for breakfast, took a bath, watched a really good Sesame Street, played with my new stickers, bowled, did sidewalk chalk, blew bubbles, and jumped in the mud. Then when daddy got home, we went to the mall. Benny and I took mommy to the play area, while daddy got a massage. After that, we went to the food court for dinner. At first I was going to get Chinese food, but I changed my mind and got McDonalds instead. I ate my last chicken nugget too fast and kind of choked on it. I ended up puking all over myself and my mom's shoe. Mommy cleaned me up in the bathroom, while daddy went with Benny to buy me some new clothes. After I changed, daddy took me to the pet store and mommy fed Ben. We met back up at Kid Connections, where I got to paint a frisbee. I was pretty tired after all of that, so I fell asleep on the way home.

Ben's first time playing with sidewalk chalk - he was pretty excited about it.

This is a picture of me after I played in the mud. I had to take my clothes off at the door.

Coloring Page

This is the picture that I colored at Applebee's. It looked a lot better before my dad stepped on it.

Visiting the Zoo

It was nice outside yesterday (relatively speaking), so my mom decided to take me and Ben to the zoo. First, we stopped at the Rainforest, because I needed a soft pretzel (I LOVE soft pretzels). As soon as we got to the zoo, we went up to the Primates, Cats and Aquatics building. Ben really liked it there. He thought that the monkeys were funny, but I think the sharks were his favorite. After that, we walked to Australia. It was closed, but we did see one kangaroo. Next we headed to the giraffes and then to the vet building. We saw the rhinos and went to the gift shop, then it was time to go home. My mom said that we'll get to go to the zoo more when the snow melts. That could take awhile.

The Museum of Natural History

On Wednesday, I went with my family to the Museum of Natural History. We had a great time! We saw dinosaurs, a glacier, planets, and lots and lots of animals. I also got to go to the Discovery Center, where I saw a real tarantula and helped my dad uncover a dinosaur head!

Sweet Potatoes and Turkey

Yesterday, my mom decided to give Benny sweet potatoes and turkey for dinner. It started out okay, but then Ben took over. The kid was out of control. He kept sticking his hands in his mouth when it was full of food. Then he grabbed the lid for the baby food. What a mess! He had to take a bath when he was done eating.

This is what Ben looked like before he started eating.
He sure thinks he's funny!
Here's Ben examining the baby food lid.

Daddy's Loops

My daddy wears these weird looking glasses at work. I thought they were hilarious, so daddy let me try them on. Pretty funny, huh!?!

Benny on the Slide

Today was a pretty busy day. Mommy and I woke up early (by early I mean 8:30), but Benny slept in (until 9:30). I ate breakfast and watched "The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" while mommy gave Benny a bath. After that, we decided to meet our friends Caren, Colleen and Casey at the Rainforest. I was pretty excited to see them. We saw the animals and ate lunch, then it was time to go. Mommy had a BUNCH of junk to drop of at Goodwill, so we did that next. After that, we went to the mall. I rode the yellow horse on the merry-go-round, bought some books at the bookstore, played at the play area, and helped mommy find some clothes for Ben at The Children's Place. We didn't do anything new, but we sure had fun!!
