Sisterly Love

Sorry I've been gone so long. Hope this makes up for it...

Trick 'r Treat

Halloween night, baby. I got to go out trick or treating with Daddy, and we even brought Paige with for a few houses.

It was great, and I got some candy. Only problem was that there were some spooky houses. In fact, I went down to my friend Taylor and Bailey's house to trick or treat, but when we got there I saw skeletons, spiders, cobwebs and a giant zombie thing. There were these glowing eyes in the windows.

Are you kidding me? For reals? I decided to pass on that one. I'll come back on a normal day.

A Brand New Present

Ever since Paige came 'round, we've been getting a lot of presents. Well, Paige has gotten a few more, but who's counting, right?

Anyway, last weekend we got the best present of all - a new uncle!!

Yup, Auntie Megan got married to Johnny, which makes him Uncle Johnny now. Pretty cool, eh? The ceremony was awesome and Auntie Megan was very pretty.

And on top of all that, we got to stay with our cousins Jack, Ryan and Conor. Those dudes are a blast. It makes me want three brothers at my house. I guess I'll have to wait until Paige gets bigger so we can play.

Taking Care of My Sister

If you ask Daddy, Paige is a lot of work. And I believe him, cuz it seems like she can't do anything by herself.

So what I was thinking was I should lend a helping hand now and then. Unfortunately, I don't know jack about caring for babies.

However, I do have a dolly named Baby Elsie, so I figure I can practice up on her, then be all ready to chip in with Paige.

I dunno, but I think I am ready to go...

Straight Through

Not that I am around to notice or anything, but rumor has it my little sis has a nice little two-night sleeping through the night streak going. Mommy and Daddy are pretty happy about it.

Of course, it did take her long enough. I mean, I was doing it at five and a half weeks, but who's counting, right?

Doctor Visit

Paige had her eight week check-up today.

Everything went well... she is up to 11 lbs. 7 oz., which is in the 75th percentile. (Of course, I was in the 95th percentile, but who's counting).

The only part I was confused about was when the nurse brought in something called "vaccines" for Paige. Daddy took me out of the room for a while, but when I came back she had band-aids on her legs. Pretty ones, too.

The best news is that Daddy said I get to go to the doctor in a few weeks and get some of those pretty band-aids of my own.

While I Was Away

Lots of stuff to bring you up to date on.

First off, Paige and I (and Mommy and Daddy, of course) took a road trip to Indianapolis to see Grandma and Grandpa. It was awesome. We got to see a lot of people, and I got to introduce my little sister to them.

We also got to go to the zoo, which was awesome. And this time the Tiger wasn't in hiding. He was right there for all to see. I even roared at him. Even cooler than that was the dolphin show. They had a HUGE swimming pool with dolphins that jumped and flipped and everything. I need to get a dolphin for my swimming pool.

Then we came back to have a birthday party for Grandpa. Grandma made a cake, and she let me decorate it.

It was lots of fun, but the ride home was even better. Get this, there was a screen that dropped down from the top of the car and showed Elmo videos. It was so amazing I didn't even mind that we had to stop three times for Paige and the trip took eight hours.

After we got home, things kept getting better. Daddy found a tricycle for sale online and we got it. It's great. Old school red and white - really classy.

Now, I did have to give something up for it... my pacifier that I used in bed. I figured it was a good deal. I am two and a half. First couple nights were rough, but its getting better.

I am a big girl, after all.
