Grandpa will sometimes say “I like the box better than the toy”.   Well, that’s not totally true.   I do like the toys.  However, boxes can be so much fun.

This very short video is me trying to reach into a box.   The flaps are up.   However, no one told me the flaps couldn’t hold my weight.   The result is free entertainment at my expense.. LOL

Enjoy

Last Friday it snowed here in Houston.  Everyone made such a big deal out of it.   Last year when we visited my Great Grandmother and Great Grandfather outside Buffalo (Niagara Falls to be exact), it snowed almost everyday.   No one made a big deal out of it then.

Of course, I wasn’t completely thrilled with the snow this time because it meant Grandpa had to spend another day out-of-town.  I heard Grandma talking about an airport closing in Houston because of the snow.

Well, it did snow.. and it was very cool (no pun intended).   For those who think it doesn’t snow here, Grandma took a video of my playing the “snow”, or what snow there was.  Check it out and enjoy.

That’s it for now

just in case you needed to know why the dog looks a little nervous in the previous photo.

I wasn’t sure at first what it was and now I can say it. SNOW!!!!

Today it snowed in Houston. Grandma tells me this is very unusual. I just think it is a lot of fun. Mom even let me play around in it for a while. Great big snow flakes kept falling on my head and it was very cold. I didn’t get to play too long, but long enough… (smile).

The only bad part about the snow is Grandma said that Grandpa’s plane can’t land so he will not be home tonight. Too bad. I haven’t seen him all week.

Maybe more snow will come down so I can play in it again.

My doctor thinks that I might be lactose intolerant.  However, because I can barely talk (I am getting better each day though), I can’t really explain to him when my stomach hurts.  So he decided to find out if I was for sure and to see if there is anything else I might be allergic to, I have to get blood drawn this morning.   They took three vials.  I was worried they were going to empty me out…

I did cry.   After all when someone sticks a needle in your arm and tries to suck out all of your blood, it hurts.   I did not however, squirm or fuse.   Other than crying, I gave the nurse no trouble at all.  I sat on Grandma’s lap, held my bottle, and watched.  I did hurt too… did I say that yet…

When she was done, she put a bandage over the spot and I went home.   The whole thing only took about 5 minutes because she did such a good job.  Of course, if she would have missed that vein, she would have never have gotten a second try… LOL

I home now and all seems OK.   Grandpa even called me from Chicago so I could tell him all about it.  I don’t think he understood my explanation very well.  I tried as best I could to tell him but sometimes it takes him a while to catch on to what I am saying.

Well, that’s it for now

Last night I had the chance to do something I have never done before.   I talked to Grandpa using Grandma’s computer.  It was very cool.

At first I wasn’t sure what was going on.   Grandma set up her computer on the kitchen table just I was finishing dinner.    They pushed my highchair as close to the table as possible and placed the computer in front of me, just out of my reach for some reason.   The next thing I knew Grandpa’s face popped up on the screen and he started to talk to me.   It took me a second to decide what I should do.  Then I yelled out “Grandpa”.

It was great.  We talked for about 15 minutes (as much as I can talk).  It was nice to see him because he seems to be gone a lot.

I’m looking forward to the next time he calls.

That’s it for now

P.S.  Just in case anyone is interested, we used the built in webcam on Grandma’s Lenova Thinkpad.   Grandpa used a Logitech® Webcam Pro 9000.  He said it’s was the easiest thing in the world to set up.   And Logitec has its own network to connect through so there was no need to do anything special.

A few days (or so) ago, I turn a full 2 years old.   Now that I’m a “big kid”, I get to have birthday parties and go out to trick and treat on Halloween.   This is just so much fun.

For my birthday , Mom and Grandma bought me something called an ice cream cake.  The idea seemed a bit confusing.   Was it a cake (that’s certainly what it looked like) or was it ice cream (it was pretty cold to touch)?   I was about to find out.    They put this “ice cream cake” in front of me so I could do anything I wanted to it.   The following three short videos do a much better job of showing what transpired next… view on and have fun…

Well, that’s it for now.  I hope you enjoyed

Thank you for coming and please stop back

It was my 2nd Birthday a few days ago.    Mom and Grandma not only bought me an ice cream cake, they gave the entire cake to me… it was so cool… and cold.

Grandma posted a video of me blowing out my candle and tasting the cake so Grandpa could see; he’s out-of-town.
