It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like...

...Christmas, but not really. It was 70 degrees this weekend and we went for a train ride on the Zilker Zepher. If you're ever in Austin, I'll take you; it's lots of fun. This last weekend we got ready for Christmas at our house: the tree is decorated, the lights are up outside, and my stocking is hanging on the wall. Now I just have to get through Friday, and then it's almost time for Santa to come! Can't wait! -jm

Sea World

What more could a girl want? Sea World this last Saturday was awesome. No crowds, no waiting, no problems. We saw Sesame Street Christmas, the Sea Otters, Walrus, Sea Lions, Penguins, Alligators, Flamingos, and Shamu, played on the playground, and even went on the Log Ride! (Dad says he can't believe I went on the Log Ride - he's impressed.) When can we go back?

Check Out My Pumpkins!

We carved some awesome pumpkins for Halloween this year. Mom and Dad make really great faces, and I like to pull out the mushy stuff inside. Actually, I don't like it much at all because my fingers get sticky, but it's fun to watch. Yay for Halloween! -jm

Busy Summer

This summer has been really hot and really busy. I've been really busy, too; I went to South Dakota to see Great Grandpa, started a new school, and have been helping Daddy get our house ready for the new baby. I think we are only going to get busier, though, since Halloween is right around the corner and I don't have a costume yet!
Last night Daddy read me two books; usually I get more, but he insisted two was enough - especially since it was late. -jm

Popscicles

103 outside? No problem: have a popscicle! -jm

Big Girl

I'm growing so fast that I can't stop eating! This morning I had oatmeal, some banana, milk, and peanut-butter toast. Yum! (My socks are awesome.)

Josephine the Ham

"Say cheese," you say? No way! Silliness is the only way to go in front of the camera! Good morning! -jm
