Wowee!

My mom made the BEST pancakes today! She calls them 'Diabetic Coma Pancakes.'

Here is how you make them.

Make whole wheat pancake batter (you need something healthy in there).
Add mini chocolate chips.
Coconut.
Crunchetized almonds.

Cook!

Voila!

Be careful after you eat one, you'll have a sugar crash about twenty minutes later.

I did. :)

Oh, today I tried to climb in the dishwasher... not a comfy place to be.

Blah-ha-ha-ha!

How do you get your toddler to stop climbing on the fireplace? You can't. Plain and simple.

Let me tell you how my day went.

I climbed up on the fireplace and Mom said, "Addy, get down. You'll bonk. No, no." I grinned at her like a fool and began to dance. Mom told me no no again and put me on the floor and gave me my baby.

Then mom watched me walk over to the fireplace and look at her while I climbed up, an evil smirk on my lips as I did so. This time I get a swat on my butt. Pfft, that's what they made diapers for. I can't feel nothin' er nothin'.

I lull Mom into a sense of security by playing with my baby for a minute until she turns to do something else. I climb on the fireplace and Mom doesn't notice, so I yell at her to get her attention and the cycle begins again.

Once she swatted my bum and said in her meaniest voice, "No, no, Addy!" I ran across the room and threw my face down on a chair cushion and whined. Then I looked up at Mom with my absolutely most pitiful face and wailed. She began laughing hysterically. Mom's are so weird.

I am so Smart!

So, I learned a couple of new words. One of which is poop. Yep. Poop. I've also started saying Hi, hello and bye bye. Did I mention that I know how to use a cellphone and I can text?... Well, okay, I haven't actually called anybody and my texts are nonsense, but still. I'm getting the hang of it.

So, I use sign language to say 'milk' and I'm okay with that. The 'rents have been trying to get me to sign eat/food for a long time but I say no to them. Oh, I also sign 'bed' but sometimes I get that confused with holding a phone to my ear, but I digress (funny word!). Now Mom and Dad insist on my saying please for everything I want. What kind of world is this?! MAKING ME SIGN PLEASE FOR FRUIT SNACKS?! COME ON! I did it twice for my mom then I adamantly (ahahahaha, hilarious word) refused to do it again, but they keep on trying.

Whatever.

My mom got a bunch of pictures of me printed, 142 to be exact, and now she's going to work on my scrapbook. I'm excited to see it. I was an adorable baby. Speaking of babies, I have two that I got for my birthday and I give them kisses all the time. Mommy says I should to show them I love them. I'm going to be honest, they taste funny. I've also found that if I give my mom and dad kisses, I get my way faster.

Now for the bad news. I've been slapping and taking my mom's glasses right off her face. Le sigh. I've had to do nose in the corner twice. It sucks because Mom has to hold me there. I'm learning though, I haven't really done it again and the couple of times I have Mom and Dad just had to tell me 'No No' and I stopped.

Mom got pretty upset with Chase the other day for playing fetch with me. I am not a puppy.

Speaking of puppies! At Grammit's house I got on the floor with the puppies and even though I can walk/run/jump hurdles, I got on all fours and crawled around with the dogs. I'm a regular Dr. Doolittle. (Who is that?)

So, the other day my mom and I were hanging out in the family room and I found a cupcake wrapper. I went behind an armchair and started chewing on it. It was so yummy. Then my mom said, "Addy, what are you doing?" I peeked up with the wrapper still in my mouth and she gasped, like this, "UAHDKLJASUHHHHH!" I thought maybe I could hide from her so I sat down really fast, hoping she hadn't noticed me. Then she started laughing really, really hard. So I peeked up at her again and when she started running toward me to get the thingy out of my mouth, I sat again. She laughed even harder if you can believe it. I really didn't think she'd be able to find me because of how fast I sat but... I was wrong. No more cupcakes for me.

Sigh

I'm not feeling very super today. I threw up a couple of times and didn't want to eat anything my mom offered me. I thought when your stomach hurt you were supposed to get Sprite. Where's my soda?!

Watermelon!

Did you know that you can milk a watermelon? I did it today, let me explain how easy it is.

1. Have your mom put a couple of pieces of watermelon on your highchair tray.
2. Poke them with your index finger a couple of times just to feel them out a bit.
3. Eat a piece of it and make a face.
4. Grab a handful of melon and squish it as hard as you can. You'll notice a steady drip of pinkish wateryish liquidyish fluid. Don't worry, it'll collect on the tray.
5. Throw the watermelon pulp over the side of the highchair for your mom to clean up later.
6. You have now milked a watermelon! Now put your face against the tray and slurp all of the juice up. Make sure you do it loudly so everyone can know how much you like it.
7. Take an extra big slurp, sit up, look at your mom and give her a cheesy open mouthed grin while letting the juice spill down your chin and all over your clothes.

If you can't remember all of the instructions, make sure you print them off so you can do this exactly right.

Enjoy!

Lots Going On

So I think that my career as a marathon runner is quite feasible. I've begun training already. When I go on the Oprah Show after I've won every possible marathon in the universe, she'll ask, "How old were you when you started training?" And I'll reply with a cool smile, "When I was 13 months old." And everyone will laugh. Huh-ho-ho.

After I have conquered the marathon world, I'll move on to triathlons because I love swimming. I love mud, too but I don't want to be a mud wrestler. I like getting dirty but I think my mom would faint if I were covered head to toe.

Oh, I'm also going to be a chef! Check out this picture to prove my skill.



Yep, getting the frying pan for Mom.

Last weekend we went up to Bear Lake and oh man, it was so much fun! The water was cold, my family was great and the mud was delicious. It was so much fun.
