Hi dad. It has been nice being able to Skype with you the last couple of days. I have a feeling that this blog is going to be more for you than anyone over the next couple of months. But that's ok. I just hope they give you something to look forward to and are fun to read.
So, here are a couple of pictures mommy took. In the first one I am helping mommy work out with the exercise bands. She did ok, but I'm going to have to be a lot more harder on her in the future! The next one is a picture I colored (mom helped on some of it). She bought me a coloring book with markers. They are SO fun and taste SO good. My favorite thing to do is take all the caps off the markers. It drives mom crazy!! And then the last picture is kind of dumb, but mommy is SO proud that these are here OWN nails. She hasn't picked at them at all and they are all the same length and she decided to get all crazy and paint them black. She seems happy so that's good. I'm glad you are a leader over there. Stay safe and we will talk to you soon.

Bye Dad

Today is a sad day. My daddy has left to go to Iraq until the summer. I'm glad I'm not old enough yet to really realize that he won't be around for a while because it helps make me not so sad. I wish I could say the same for mommy. She has had a pretty hard time with the whole thing. I know my mom is awesome though and will be able to take care of everything while he is gone. She's really good at fixing stuff so I know the house will be in good shape when daddy gets home. Be safe daddy and we love and miss you!!

Mom thought she had better post a couple of Christmas pictures before it got too late to do it. Santa spoiled me rotten this year. I got tons of fun things to play with and lots of clothes to wear. Unfortunately cousin Jeremy got me this crappy Lakers jersey. As you can tell I wasn't too happy to be wearing it!

Not too much to report. I've just been hanging out with mom having fun. I'm getting excited for Christmas. I can't wait to see what Santa is bringing me. Mom finally got the pictures she had taken of me at Peekaboo Photos. I had a really good time there and I was ALL smiles. I can't say the same for my picture with Santa!

It's About Time!

Geez! I've been bugging mom for weeks that she needs to update my blog. FINALLY she listened to me and put up a couple of new pictures. I've been enjoying my new car, mom picked up a pretty sweet hat for me to wear this winter, and I've been out playing in the snow with the snow clothes grandma and grandpa bought me for my birthday.
Hopefully in the next week or so mom will be able to put up some pictures we had taken at Peekaboo Photos. I did SO good. Everyone was impressed...as they should be.
I will try and keep mom more up to date on this blog. It's not like she has anything to do :)

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!

Well, technically yesterday was my birthday, but mom was so busy making sure I had the most awesome day, that she didn't get my blog posted. I got a little car, and snow clothes, money and toys. I got books and a drum filled with little music instruments and also a little zebra that I can bounce on. I even got a star named after me! Mom sent my picture into Good Things Utah and I got to be on tv!! I had my first taste of yummy, sugary cake. Mostly frosting, but it was so cool. We went to dinner with grandma and grandpa Brown, grandma Peterson, uncle Milt, aunt Steph and Austen. I had more cake at dinner too. I had such a fun day yesterday and mommy did such a great job making it special. Thanks mom...luv ya!

My 1st Halloween

This year was my first Halloween and of course I was Odie. Mommy was Garfield, and daddy was just himself coming home from drill weekend. I went trick-or-treating, but our neighborhood had a bunch of old fuddy-duddies and only 4 houses gave out candy. I still had a good time though. I trick-or-treated at grandpa's house and he spoiled me with lots of yummy treats. Then on Halloween we went to a party at Holly's house (mommy's friend). We had a great time and I got to decorate my first cookie. What a great weekend. I wonder what could top it.....in about 4 more days!!!
