The man in the red suit

This morning after we finished skating, we hooked up with my friends Keira and Carson to go and visit this Ol Santa dude. Apparentaly Keira has already made a few attempts to get near the old guy but has had no luck with sitting on his knee. So mummy knowing that last year was a little scary for me brought along Percy the train so that I would have something to talk to Santa about. I did manage to sit on Santa's lap and then later we came back and got a better picture taken and to get a cookie.

The first time I didn't get a cookie cause mummy figures that they weren't too happy that she brought her own camera to take pictures. Either way we managed to get my visit on film for my memory book. Oh ya and I told Santa what I wanted for Christmas (of course I figured he would've given it to me right then so i was a little annoyed).

New places to play

So this weekend was fun and also lazy. On Saturday we went to my friend Brooklynns house so we could annoy each other (which we did) and on Sunday we took the kitties for their picture with Santa. They did really well and no one cried, though they did try to get away and didn't ya know they are as difficult to get a good shot of as it is to get a bunch of 2year olds to face the camera at the same time! Then when we got home, mummy thought that daddy should fulfill one of his promises for the weekend and put the drawer pulls on my cupboards. I tried to help but apparently I wasn't needed so instead I played in my toy hamper. It makes a really good bed for me and for Sassy!

Of course now that my drawer pulls are on I have the access to a new hiding place :]

Dentist and cake

So today was a very busy day with me going skating this morning, the dentist in the afternoon and making cakes for daddy's birthday tomorrow.

Mummy and I headed out to the rink this morning so I could get some more practice on my new skates. I am getting really good now and can go all the way across the ice without falling down. Of course I really like falling down and the getting up pose that mummy has called my "downward dog" pose. I also really like my new skates cause they can make some really good holes in the ice (ya i know I'm not allowed to do that but it's just too much fun)

Afterwards we stopped off to scare Grandma when she didn't know we were in the house (she even has those security dogs that bark at everything and she still didn't expect us). So we ate some lunch, brushed my teeth and then headed to the dentist for my second appointment. Today i had to open my mouth real wide, put the sunglasses on and watch the TV on the ceiling. Oh ya and the lady polished my teeth and then let me pick a toy from the toy chest. I think I could like this dentist thing!

Then cause tomorrow is daddy's birthday we had to stop and get the mixings for cake. I got to help mummy mix the cakes up and spooned the mix into the cupcake pans. Of course I also tried to help by mixing the chocolate mix in with the angel food mix and by using the bottom of the measuring cup to flatten out the mixture in the mixing bowl. Mostly I liked the painting part! Ya know when you get to use the spatula and smear the chocolate mix all over the bowl, the counter, and yourself. Can't wait for the eating part!

Grasshopper tricks

Friday was Halloween and mummy, me and even daddy attended a party at one of our friends house. All my friends were there with one or both of their parents and we all had some really cute costumes on (cause that's what you have to do to get free candy). We played, ate and drank for a little while and then we put on our rain boots and headed outside to strangers houses to ask for candy. Now you can't just ask, you must say " Trick or Treat" and then hold out your bag so they can deposit lots of goodies in it, then you say "Thank you". Sometimes the people will ask you to do a trick so you must be prepared. Mummy warned me of this so I had my trick of jumping on one foot all ready. Then sometimes your grandpa will play a trick on you by putting a pumpkin in your goodie bag instead of candy! Then you must very nicely tell him that it's too heavy!

This was a really fun night cause you get to run around in the dark, ring strangers doorbells, see all sorts of funny decorations and lots of pumpkins with lights. Plus you get to stay up later cause you are under a sugar high!!!!
