Grounded!

by Maile Girl on October 7, 2009

Sorry I didn’t post anything last night – I was grounded. Yep, I was sent straight to bed with no blogging.

Why was I grounded? I socked mommy right in the eye!

I've developed a mean left jab...

Assuming I behave, I’ll be back tonight with more…

Things sure are different around here. I’ll fill in the details later, but Mommy started up work again on Friday. Today was her first day back at the office. As this video shows, I was a bit flustered trying to figure out where she went this morning!

Half Moon Bay Adventure

by Maile Girl on October 4, 2009

This weekend I went on an adventure. At first I thought it was because I was turning 12 weeks old on Saturday, but daddy informed me it was actually because he and mommy were celebrating their 2nd anniversary. I told daddy that I thought 12 weeks being alive was much more interesting than 2 years of marriage – he told me I had a point, but that I shouldn’t tell mommy.

In any event, we went to this place called Half Moon Bay that is about 45 minutes south of San Francisco. The drive there was really pretty – I got to see the ocean in full effect and daddy enjoyed the twisty turns.

We stayed for the night at a nice hotel just outside of the downtown area. Yes, there was a big bed again. And yes, mommy and daddy made me take a picture on it. Shocking, right?

Little baby, big bed. We get it already - 12 weeks old and your already recycling the gags?

On Sunday morning we woke up a bit earlier than daddy was hoping. Apparently, I haven’t grasped the concept of “sleeping in” that mommy and daddy seemed all excited about. I woke up at 7 AM and just started chatting away.

Then we got all dressed up – I wore a pretty new dress that Grandma Gail sent me – and we went to this fancy hotel called the “Ritz” where I participated in my very first “buffet brunch”. It all seemed like a regular restaurant to me except mommy and daddy kept getting up and getting their food themselves. I sat there and looked cute – which is pretty much my go to move at restaurants.

All in all it was a fun little get-a-way – can’t wait to see where we head next!

All dressed up and ready for my first "brunch"!

I called ahead of time and had the restaurant prepare a little treat for mommy and daddy!

I think pink looks nice on Grandpa Mike!

Through the wonders of the internet, I got to video chat with Grandma Jill and Grandpa Mike tonight. They showed me some new clothes they bought for me. They wanted to make sure I liked them before they sent them out to me. I loved everything – how could I not love it when Grandpa introduces the outfits like this? I hope it looks just as good on me!

A Beautiful Saturday in the Park

by Maile Girl on September 26, 2009

Mommy and daddy took me to Fort Mason today. Fort Mason is a big park that’s right near our apartment. We had a lot of fun being outside. There was even a concert going on a short distance away so we had some music to listen to. The music wasn’t as good as the stuff that comes out of my play mat at home, but daddy said it was a “nice touch”!

Stowaway

Daddy went away last weekend. I snuck up on the bed and tried to get him to pack me, but alas he figured it out…

The Angel That Watches Over Me

by Maile Girl on September 21, 2009

I’ve noticed recently that there is this angel that watches over me – she shows up whenever I am in my swing. She just likes to check in and make sure things are going okay. I thought I was the only one who could see her, but mommy caught her on video – so that’s proof! We also contemplate the meaning of life together – that’s way I look so thoughtful in this video.

Patriots Win!

Celebrating the Patriots' come back victory...

Celebrating the Patriots' come back victory...

Okay, my daddy needs to calm down. Yes, the Patriots won, but I have to say I’m disappointed in the way things played out. Sloppy game all around. Bottom line: we’ll take the “W”, but we got lucky.

(Dad note: Apparently, Maile Girl is taking the Bill Belichick-style sleeves a bit too far. She was very harsh in her criticism of the Pats after the game. Hope they pick it up and meet her high standards next week…)
