A little Bit of Ordinary

Things have been pretty calm around here lately. Momma and I have spent a a lot of time together. We haven't done anything in particular, just being together. We did hang out at Grandma's house for awhile, just me and Momma. We played inside and we played outside. Momma showed me Grandma's garden. I found hedgehogs in there! When I tried to walk into the garden Momma laughed and helped me walk along the bricks. Grandma pulled up right as we were doing that... Grandma didn't think it was as funny. I also explored the trees in Grandma and Grandpa's front yard. They are confusing... they are my size.
I helped Momma do some chores too. She took the garbage out and I went under the sink and got a new garbage bag out. I tried to put it into the garbage can but I had some troubles. Momma had to help me with it.
I also decided that I did not like how Momma set up my nap area. While she was doing schoolwork I flipped the mattress outside of the area, got rid of all the blankets, toys, and books. When Momma heard a "thunk" she came up and saw what I did. She didn't quite know what to say so she took a picture instead.
I went looking at garage sales today with Grandma and Momma. Grandma bought me a little basketball hoop for her house and a football shaped toy box for my room at our apartment. They are so cool! I love playing with the basketball hoop. Momma says I'm going to be an all-star one day, just like her. :)

Indestructable

I gave Momma quite the scare earlier this morning. I was running through the apartment and went flying into a plastic tote container. I busted my face.... there is a big scratch between my eyes and quite an impressive welt underneath my left eye. Momma says that there is going to be a black eye. She is thankful that she doesn't have to go to the emergency room. I don't try and go to the hospital, my feet just get ahead of my thought process sometimes. Anyway, we are at Grandma's house right now. Grandma felt bad so she wanted me to come over to give me a bath and make me feel better. Grandma said that Grandpa was supposed to give me an ice cream sandwich. I never got it..... that just means he'll have to double his dose of cookies on Thursday! :P

A Lot of Catching Up to Do

Ok, so A LOT has happened this past two weeks but Momma forgot to post last Sunday. I kept bugging her all week so now she has to do an extra long post! Let's see if she can remember everything.
I went camping in the back yard in a tent and had a blast. I even helped set it up. :) Momma let me play inside it before it was bed time. To make me feel more at home, Momma put the pack and play in the tent for me to sleep in. I slept all night and made Momma super proud! She said that I did so well that we are going to go actual camping the 4th of July weekend... what ever a 4th of July is. I am so excited!
When I was spending the day with Grandma we made no-bake cookies. Then Grandma dropped some off for Momma at work. I made one especially for her. It was a little Atticus-sized cookie! :)
On Sunday Momma, Grandma and me went to the Farmer's Market downtown. We saw some people Momma knew and she talked forever! I thought I was never going to get to the funnel cakes that Momma promised. We did some walking around and Momma stopped to talk... again... to a couple of guys raising money to build some sort of park for snowboarding. It doesn't make sense to me yet but Momma said that was awesome and that in a few years she's going to teach me to snowboard just like she does. After all the talking Momma finally took me to get the funnel cake. I was unsure about it right at first but then I LOVED IT!! It was messy, sugary and awesome!
After the Farmer's Market Grandma paid for me to go on a pony ride. I was afraid at first but after the first few laps I was riding like a pro.... with Momma's help. The pony's name was Ninja! I can't wait to go on another pony ride. Grandma said that maybe I can go on another one when her and Grandpa go back to the Farmer's Market.
Grandma also took me to go visit Aunt Amanda and Uncle Shaggy. I got to look at the fish and play with all the cats. Aunt Amanda told Momma that the cats were fine with me until I took my socks and shoes off and made myself at home.
Momma and I also attended Eryn's Girl Scout Silver Award. It was a pretty ceremony but an hour to sit still and quiet is way too long for someone of my energetic stamina. Momma got a little frustrated but we made it through and then she let me try some raspberry cheesecake. The cheesecake part was awesome, but not the raspberry swirls.
We also had steaks and cake one night for Aunt Amanda's and Uncle Shaggy's 1st anniversary. The cake was awesome. They tried to get me to eat this fruit salad stuff but I didn't like it. It was a very weird texture.
A couple of days later Grandpa gave me a giant pixi sticks. I didn't like them too much but they were sure fun to play with. It was like this sweet bitter, crystal like powder that was blue. I dumped the spoon all over my face and everyone started laughing. I gave some to Casey and they laughed harder and Momma told me "no". (Sometimes Momma can be a party pooper!)
