Corn Dogs.....Growl!

Watch out here I come! Even though it snowed another 6 inches this week, Mom and I had fun together.

We went to an indoor play area that had slides, and tunnels, and things to climb on. Mom's friend Melissa and her kids Taylor and Tyson came with us to play! Taylor is a little older than I am but we always have fun together. She liked to go down the slide too!

This is Taylor's little brother Tyson. He is still fairly new to the playground scene so his mom had to show him around.

Once he took the playground tour he had lots of fun too. His birthday is in another week. Can you guess how old he will be?

Well, this weekend Mom worked at the hospital, so Dad and I spent Saturday together. Dad put some baby food carrots on a spoon for me to taste. I let him put a little on my bottom lip. After that he asked me what they tasted like. I told him..."Carrots!" and then made a face. A couple minutes later I said, "They are vegetables." See, I'm paying attention to all those books Mom and Dad read to me.

One of my favorite books has a bear in it. He looks sleepy like Dad. Mom taught me how to growl just like the bear. Check it out!

Other things that I learned are Mom and Dad's first names. Mom's name is Jill and Dad's name is Ryan. I like to play in forts that Dad builds out of the couch cushions. I am also starting to enjoy brushing my teeth. But one of my favorite things to do is repeat everything that I hear.

Dad taught me that one when Mom wasn't around.

Well, I will be heading down to Riley Children's Hospital this Thursday for an endoscopy or as BlueCross BlueShield refers to it - the only medical procedure they haven't tried yet. The feeding clinic at Johns Hopkins says that I need it done just to make sure that I am not allergic to anything so they can be super aggressive in the treatment program. As you can tell from my bear growl, I am aggressive.

By the way, if you are on the brink of your sanity from kids music like Mom and Dad were I recommend trying some of Laurie Berkner's music. Grandma saw it on TV and told Mom about it. Her music is a welcome break from the Christmas music I ask for all the time. Frosty. Frosty the Snowman? All of her songs have fun lyrics that a 2 year old can dance to but aren't nearly annoying as the Doodle-Bops. If you have no idea who the Doodle-Bops are consider yourself lucky.

Have a great week everyone! See you soon!
