Here I Am!

I'm back!! Sorry if you have been checking everday and wondering what happened to me. I usually try to sit down and share my week with you on Sunday or Monday, and here it is Wednesday and I am just getting a chance to write to you all. Life is busy for a 17 month old. There is the playing and the eating and the napping and more playing...so much to accomplish in day. And if that isn't enough, Mom has always got me on the run, going here and going there. There aren't too many boring days in my life.

Let's start with today! Today, Mommy's best friend Brooke and her daughter, Ava came to visit us. Ava is just 10 days younger than Teddy, but she was born a little early so she is still really small, but boy has she grown since I last saw her!! Mommy and Theodore went to lunch with Brooke and Ava while I stayed home with Grammy Peterson and got ready for my nap. They hung around right until dinner time. I think Ava is just a cutie and I had lots of fun with Brooke, especially when right before she left, she fed me forkfuls of yummy pasta! I was sad to see them go, but blew them a kiss goodbye, something Mommy had never seen me do before!

Ava and Theodore after lunch - good time for a nap!

Ava was so excited to see us that she did a little cheer!

Ava and Theodore - Buddies from Day One!

Since it has been a while since my last post, let me fill you in on some other news...

Theodore is interacting with everyone more and more. He smiles at just about anyone that gets in his face and talks to him. He even gets in silly moods every once in a while and lets out some really cute giggles. Here he is at Grandma Peters house when Mommy was making silly sounds and was getting some good giggles out of him.

Yesterday was a really fun day. I went to the Denison Park pool in Corning with Mommy, Grammy and Theodore for a pool party. There were other kids there that I knew from Mommy's MOPS group. They had lots of pool toys in the wadding pool and played fun, kids tunes. I had lots of fun throwing the beachballs around and riding the dinosaurs. Thedore had lots of fun too! Too bad a storm came through and ended the party early!!

Just a warning...there may be another big gap between now and my next posting. We are all leaving to go on vacation in the Adirondacks on Saturday and I will be gone for a whole week. I'm not sure if I will have access to the blog, or time to write to you given all the fun things we will be doing while we are gone, but I promise some really fun pictures and lots of entertaining stories when I get back!
