Weeeee!!!!

I have to start this post with an apology, I have been SO busy learning new things that I just haven't had time to slow down and post about it.

As many of you will remember, for my first birthday I got a slide, it was a pretty cool gift, but I just wasn't sure how to use it on my own...turns out, practice makes perfect!

I LOVE my slide!  Tonight I went down my slide at least 473 times in a row (I haven't mastered counting yet...it might be closer to 10).

I promise I am going to try to be better about posting,

Bonspiel Weekend

One year ago I attended my First Bonspiel.  I don't remember any of it, but mama said we had a great time.

Last weekend was Bonspiel Weekend again and it was great!  It was a very busy weekend, Auntie Heidi came over on Friday so mama could go out with a friend and so daddy could start curling.  I love when Auntie Heidi comes, she is tons of fun and we always have a great time.

Saturday was busy too...Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Bob came over for lunch at Famous Dave's.  Daddy had curling, of course.  And mama was meeting up with friends for a girls night in the cities!!  Auntie Heidi and I didn't want to miss out on any fun so we decided to go swimming at the water park!

Sunday Auntie Heidi, mama and I went down to the curling club to watch daddy's last match (curling on Sunday is pretty special, only 4 teams make it that far!!)  After the match mama let Auntie Heidi take me out on the ice.  It was VERY slippery.  I really wanted to give curling a shot, but I think my stone was broken, I couldn't get it to move!!

Daddy told mama that they needed some treats for Saturday night, she wanted to do a couple pans of bars, but I had a better idea.  We made cake ball curling stones!!!

Have a good night!

(In case you were wondering, a curling stone weighs about 40 pounds)

Words, Words and More Words

The past few weeks I have really been working on my words, so I thought it would make sense to write a post to document it.  Don't get me wrong, I have been doing all my own typing over the past year, I just haven't been able to say all of the words yet  ;-)

Right now, my favorite word is definately, "Hi!" but I have a whole lot of other words that I like too.  Here is my list:

• Hi
• Hello
• Jake
• Down (Jake and Bella like to jump up on me)
• Night-Night
• All Done
• Uh-Oh
• Oopsy
• Mama
• Daddy
• No
• Good (If you ask me, "How are you?", I will tell you, "Good", if that is really how I am feeling)
• More

I really like to repeat words and sounds, so I am pretty sure that in the next month the above list is going to grow a LOT!

I have a video to leave you with, it is kind of hard to hear me, but none the less, it is still pretty darn cute.

Have a good afternoon!
