Too Busy to Write

Whew... I am wore out!  Let me tell you about the past week or so... I've been sooo busy that I haven't had a free minute to sit down and tell you what's been happening in my life.  As I told ya last time, Mommy and I surprised my Grandpas and Grandmas back in Clay Center.  My allergies were really bothering me, so Grandpa took me on the tractor.  At first I wasn't too sure about it- but everytime Grandma would try to take me off, I didn't want to leave.

I've always been kinda a 8 or 8:30 kinda girl for bedtime.  During my stay in Clay Center, I went to bed around 10 each night!  I was very tired!

On Friday, Grandma, Auntie Danae, Mommy and I went to Topeka to see my cousin Addie from Texas.  We had a great time playing with La-La (my cousin Tori) and my Aunt Deanna.  

We even bounced on their trampoline.  My Auntie Angela gave me this toy- it is like a music soundstage and I can practice my singing skills and dance moves in the mirror.

The next day, I went to the zoo for the very first time.  I didn't really know what to think... the only animals I've seen up close before were my dogs Pele, Pete, and Jake.

Here I am with the 'rents.  I'm not really too sure of what to think of Pa and Ma.  They're alright at keeping me fed and my diaper clean... but they're kinda weird!!  Thank goodness for Derek the Uncle and Aunt Chelsea- they keep me sane!

Auntie Angela and Wyatt met us at the zoo- I had such a great time with him!  He shows me how to do everything- I can't wait to be as big as him!

Here's me swinging on the swing at the zoo park.  I pretty much love to swing- so much in fact that Dad hung a swing from our ceiling in the basement so I could swing ANYTIME I want.  Wasn't that nice??

Okay so here's what I've been up to since Friday... Mom and I had this silly idea in our head that it would be fun to surprise Daddy for Father's Day and take him on a mini-vacation!  SOOO, Mommy made hotel reservations here in Kansas City for Friday and Saturday night.  On Friday morning, Mommy packed everything up while Daddy was at work and then we went and put everything in our hotel room.  When Daddy got off work, we told him we had a surprise for him, and we blindfolded him!

He had no idea what we had planned!  It worked out perfectly!  On Saturday, I went swimming for the first time!!!  

The water was pretty cold, but I'm tough.  After a little while, I even started to LIKE the water and splashed a little.  I can't wait until the 4th of July when I get to go swimming again in Clay Center!

Mommy and I did not want to get out of the water... but Daddy said it was time.  It probably was- we had been swimming for about 30 minutes!  P.S. My bikini sure is cute, huh?

We had a great time on our first family vacation and Daddy says his first Father's Day has been perfect.  I probably better get to playing with all of my toys... but don't worry, I'll still stay ornery as ever!!!

Peace out!
