Getting Frosty, Making Frosty


The snow is becoming less novel around here. It just keeps coming, and I just keep shoveling. I took a break today and Daddy helped me build a snowman! It was the best.

We call Stevie the Pink Eskimo. She has embraced the snow, but she can't stay outside as long as I can.






Coming inside is the best part about playing in the snow. Stevie and I love to drink hot cocoa, and we always toast to the snow. Cheers!

Working for a Living

Ever since we learned about the law pertaining to keeping NYC sidewalks free of snow, Daddy decided I was old enough for chores. It's a good thing Target carries child-size shovels.



Sissy is not big enough for shoveling, so she just enjoys the snow while I work. She loves her new snow boots! Thanks for those, Nanny. Mom says that if I am strong enough to shovel show, I'm probably big enough to scrub the potty. I hope she's kidding. I wonder if Daddy is strong enough to do chores too.

Christmas Continues with Mimi & Ahgoo



On Christmas Eve, I left a variety of cookies and delicious milk for Santa. Of course, it was only right for me to sample the goodies to ensure quality goods for Santa Claus. The next morning, Stevie could wait to get her hands on everything.




My favorite present was the Smart Cycle that Santa brought for me. I ride it everyday for exercise. Sometimes Daddy doesn't want to share it. He is very competitive; especially when it comes to the racing game. Tio and Aunt Jess sent Stevie her favortie present - an Elmo purse. She is still making phone calls and applying her lipstick everyday. Pretty funny.



Since we were finished opening presents and playing with our new toys by 6:30am, we decided to get out of the house and brave the park. Brr. Ahgoo and I had a great time running around, and Stevie taught Mimi everything she knows about the playground equipment.












What a great Christmas we had this year! It was wonderful to have the opportunity to visit with everyone. Nothing beats horsing around with Ahgoo.

Nanny's Christmas Visit


Christmas lasted for days at our house this year. It was awesome! Nanny came for her first visit, and we had a blast. Mommy and I took Nanny into Manhatten to see the Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall. We had the best time! Here is a picture of us on the ferry.

Nanny got me the coolest, outrageously over-priced toy at the show. There was no way I was smiling for the camera when I could watch the flashing lights and spinning toy soldier. Sorry.

The following day, we ventured back into Manhattan to visit the famous Santaland at Macy's. Honestly, I was a bit on the cranky side during our trip. Mom said it felt more like Hell than the North Pole. I'm guessing Nanny was thinking it, but was too kind to say it outloud. Anyway, everyone else had a good time. We even stood in line to meet Santa face to face. All I can say, is that it was a good thing he didn't check his list twice this year.

Probably my most favorite part of Nanny's visit is when we got our craft on. Mommy's not so good when it comes to crafting, so it was a real treat to build a gingerbread house with Nanny. She even let me do some of it by myself!


We played a lot and laughed a lot, and we're already looking forward to Nanny's next visit.
