Early December - 2008

Happy New Year from Little Miss Sunshine! I had such a good time during December, I simply did not have time to give an update. You would think that between the activities, Mommy would have been able to type this up for me. I might need to look for better help. For now, I will deal with what I have.

What can I say about December, 2008? Luckily, I am not tuned into the TV to know the economic or world events going on, so my days are not full of hard news. My days are full of toddling around (Mommy is constantly surprised how true this term “toddler” is). I am walking like a champ. I am even in the 25th percentile for weight! I am saying lots of words, like “nose,” “eyes,” “no,” thank you,” “please,” “eat,” and on and on. I can say my friends’ names like “Blair” and my teacher’s names, like “Tiff” (Her full name is Tiffany, but let’s not get too particular here.)

Back to December: Of course we had a calendar full of events. First we had my fever/ and coughing that did not end for the whole month. I missed “Breakfast with Santa” with my friends Colin and Patrick because I was sick. I was sick from school on December 8th and Mommy and Daddy split the day home with me. The reason I remember this so well is because Daddy’s birthday is December 9, so Mommy and I spent her half of the day running errands (don’t worry, I was not that sick) and getting Daddy a cake for his birthday. Daddy had a really good birthday and was surprised about the cake at work. For his birthday, we went to one of our new favorite restaurants called Casadores (we went there one other time with our friends the Griffiths). It was a great night because they had pitchers on sale (always a bonus) and gave Daddy a special dessert for his big day! I was feeling a bit better too, another treat for Daddy on his birthday.
