Happy THANKSgiving

Boy, do I have so much to be greatful for this year. Since this was the first Thanksgiving that I was able to understand, somewhat, why we were all getting together, I took full advantage of it by spending lots of time playing and loving on my family. This year I was able to go to my Great Aunt Linda's house in New Braunfels, Tx and see the place I was born. I was told the story about how mommy and daddy had come here to have me, due to the hurricaine. Wow, what a story I will have to tell my friends one day.

Aunt Linda's house was like an amusement park. Above, you can see me swinging from a tree. This was the very first time I learned to swing by myself and it was amazing.

Above, you can see Mikey attempting to show me how to play cards. He was trying to teach me how to throw my cards out on the table. My first few cards flew off the table, but since everyone was laughing when I did this, I decided to continue throwing them off the table in order to get a laugh. I succeeded.

Here I am with my friend, Samantha, pushing this sweet elderly man in a wheel chair. He was so sweet to us and told us we could wheel him anywhere we wanted him to go. Wow, now that is laid back.

Here I am with mommy after I had thrown a fit because she wouldn't let me have any dessert. Now what kind of mother wouldn't let their child have chocolate on Thanksgiving day? Exactly my point. Nonetheless, I won and was able to enjoy my own slice of chocolate pie. Nanny nanny boo boo, momma.

Here is most of the group, minus maw, striking a pose after taking a ride in the gator. Fun, fun, fun.

To end our lovely trip, Great Aunt Linda organized a scavenger hunt for me and in my buck I had all kinds of goodies. Now that is what I call a good time. Thank you Aunt Linda, Uncle Jim, Maw and Mikey for making this Thanksgiving so special. And to all of my loved ones that I wasn't able to see, we definately missed you!!!
 
This Thanksgiving I am so thankful for all of my family!

Family and College Football

Tonight mommy and daddy had family over to hang out and watch football. We had pizza delivered and I was the center of attention for most of the night. I was so glad to see my Papa Bear and to be able to have someone to serve coffee and food to from my very own kitchen set. Papa Bear let me put stickers all over him and even listened to me sing some of the songs I have learned at school. He thought they were fantastic.

Katie and greg also suprised me and also came to hang out. At first I acted a little shy towards Katie, but I was just a little sad because I had not seen her in a few weeks. The real truth is that I wish I could see them both every day!!

Mr. & Mrs. Ledezma

This clip should say it all. My aunt JJ is officially a married woman. I also can officially call Moises, Uncle Moises! We had the best time and I was so honored to be the flower girl. It was a big job, but I was up for the task. I believe I did pretty well and didn't even cause a scene during the wedding. The only mistake I made was forgetting to toss the petals down the aisle. Mommy said she was so proud of me and that it didn't matter.

JJ was the most beautiful bride and I could not be happier for her. For those that do not know her, she is the kindest, most loving, warm, fun and loyal person you will ever meet. I am so lucky to have her as an aunt and look forward to many more memories!

We love you both!

Stella & Dot.....Jewelry!

What a fun night night my mommy had doing what she never gets to do. That would be admiring jewelry, vistiting with friends and drinking cocktails. I was so jealous that she was helping throw a party and her own baby girl wasn't invited. ?? Nonetheless, I am glad she was able to take a break, even though I wasn't involved.

Mommy said the jewelry was gorgeous and I have to agree.

Here I am before mommy left for the party. I was trying to convince her to take me with her and I obviously failed. I had my skinny jeans and peep toe shoes on, too.

A little closer look of the peep toe shoes. Mommy said I was the prettiest liltte girl ever........awe shucks, mommy!

Ella loves Eli...

This evening mommy, daddy and I went over to the Todd's house to hang out and let the little ones get together and play. Their son, Eli, is in my class at school and we always have a great time together. What we didn't know was that their house was any little girls dream! It was absolutley amazing. They had a trampoline, swinngs, rockwall, doll house, etc. I just hope mommy and daddy catch all the hints I gave them about wanting all of those "things" at my new home. Just hope they got it!

Here is myself kissing Eli on the lips! Yes, the lips. Our parents were just as shocked as I was.. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Todd for having my family over to play and eat scrumptous pizza. We had a blast and hope to get together soon!

Our New Home

Since many of mommy and daddy's friends and family have been anxious to see the new house, mommy decided to post some pics for them to see. I cannot tell you how excited I am and cannot wait to move to the burbs! Now I will be able to see all of my friends and family more often. Can't wait...

This view you see above is what sealed the deal for mommy. Mommy said she loved the fact that she can be in the kitchen cooking and keep her eye on me in the backyard, no matter where I am.

At the top of these stairs is my very own bedroom and playroom. Can we say party time?

Here is the best part, everyone. My very own backyard to run, jump, dig and whatever I want to do. December 6, please hurry up.
