i got to go to show low, arizona with mommy, daddy, grandparents black, aunt stacey, uncle mark and the dogs...cousin duncan and my new sister, jet! we had a great time! i got to swim in the big pool with mommy and daddy, decorate my own 4th of july hat with grandma and grandpa, and cuddle with aunt stacey each morning in her bed! i also saw horses, went to a carnival, saw part of a children's play or "showdown" at the resort saloon, made 4th of july table decorations for the rental house, and blew bubbles! i also was part of my first parade on the 4th! grandma and grandpa decorated my stroller and we all walked in the parade together! we ate lunch together after the parade and i got to say "hi" to everyone in the restaurant! i love to meet new people and talk to them! and later that night i got to get out of bed to view the fireworks! i would exclaim..."oh boy" when they would light up the sky! it was so much fun! after the fireworks i played on the golf course before heading back to bed! it was a great weekend and i had lots of fun!
a few other new things...i like to say "wa, wa" when i want some water and i now don't always have to be prompted to say "please" and "thank you." i also like to cup someone's face in my hands, pull them close and give them a big kiss! i will wrap my arms around a someone's neck and will pull them in close to give them a hug! i am very affectionate and grandma marsha also thinks i am "miss congeniality!" i also love to sing "row, row, row, your boat" nonstop. i can sing the beginning of the song myself! i learned a new version of the song from aunt beth last month where you scream at the end...so i like to do that part too!
