Toys, who needs 'em?

Well folks, I'd like to say thanks to all of you out there who bought me all the cool toys for Christmas.

Really, it was very thoughtful of you and I'm sure you had the best of intentions. And most days I start out with the best intentions of playing with all of them. See? Here I am playing with one of my new walking toys:

But I just get so distracted sometimes by all the other things in my house. Like my dirty laundry...

And this super cool cabinet in the kitchen. It's got a drawer that pulls out and oodles of water bottles.

Then there's the bags of recycling. Who doesn't want to rummage around in that?

AND there's the baby in the oven door that looks just like me. We like to slobber on each other's faces.

There's just so much that I need to check out in my house. It's for the good of the family. I have to make sure we're all safe and that I know where things are in case Mom and Dad need me to help them find things. Like a pie plate. Cuz my mom, she bakes a lot of pies you know! (That was totally a joke! My mom's never baked a pie in her life but she did inherit a really pretty pie plate from her Grandma Fern. I like to pull it out of the cupboard and yep, you guessed it, suck on it.)



In other news at our house this week, we got a new chair. Grandma Jan and Grandpa Bob decided they didn't like their furniture and got themselves some new Lazy Boyz. (I wonder if they're related to my friend Lazy Susan that lives in my kitchen...? Ah, but I digress...) So they were nice enough to give us their leather recliner. It's become Daddy's new favorite thing in the house. The other night he read me books and snuggled with me under a blanket.

I got a belated Christmas present today. It's a cute reindeer named Rooftop from my cousin Megan. I'm usually not a huge fan of stuffed animals, but I totally dig this one!

Love at first sight...

BANANA! Real banana, right out of the peel. Not mashed up and put in a jar. I love it! Thanks Mom!!

This is me in my new bath towel from Mommy's coworker, Ms. Cindy. Am I supercute or what?!?! And what a genius idea, because those ones that the people in the factories make for babies are totally not absorbant enough for me. Thanks Ms. Cindy!

Well folks, I guess that about does it for this post. Mommy has to go back to work tomorrow and I'm heading back to daycare to see how my friends have been doing since I've been away. I hope the place has been alright without me.

Peace out!
