I Am Just Sayin’…

Dear Mom and Dad,

So, how are you today?   I have so much to tell you today.   First off,  not that I am the complaining type or a Negitive Nellie…, and not that I would ever use a princess like whine…  I am however,  just sayin’ that after ten months on this planet, I have decided unequivocally that TEETHING is NOT FUN.   Nana and the Beast…. well they worked at getting some photos for you today, and well let’s just see if you notice a pattern here…. none of these next pics are duplicates…   

I don't want the wrapper off I like the sound it makes...

What?  It's good like this!  Want one?

Oh yes.... that's the spot.... ahhhhh! I am telling you… I am so fixated on biting, and gnawing, and just plain chewing on anything and everything, that it appears my little eyes say it all… ahhhhhhh…. yes… relief, even if momentary.

 

Nana has been giving me Infant tylenol as the doctor as recommended, and it helps so much, but when it is getting close to time for a bit more the the grape gum relief goo…. YOU CAN TELL, I hate TEETHING…  (just sayin’, NO FUN)

I'm tellin' you it feels GOOD just let me bite on it .... oh... I am!

I don't notice anything... ?  What ...?

What?  !?!?! Does it say you can't use it for this?  Who says?

Have you noticed the pattern?  Hmmmm..... do you think I may be cutting some new teeth?

So I am sure you can see the similar factor in each AND EVERY photo the Beast tried to get today…and … well all I have to say is …. YOU TRY THIS!  I am thinking… even strong soldiers would have a hard time with this stuff!

Second thing I needed to speak to Daddy about… is WHAT’S UP WITH TELLING NANA THOSE ‘CHARGERS’ WERE GONNA BEAT GRANDMONSTERS STEELERS?   Hmmmmm?   Nana took your advice, and well let’s just say… that “chargers” thingy didn’t exacly pan out the way you said it would… but it’s okay… she’s just going to make you take all the campers to dinner for your ERROR in judgement. Anyone for Sonic?   From now on Daddy you better stick with the Steelers, or HOW BOUT THOSE LIONS…?

And the last thing I wanted to slide on in here tonight is about my day….I have to send a shout out to Great GREAT Aunt Ida, say Hey there… (and glad you are home), but really I do not want you having any more “great great aunt stuff “, just so I can EAT EGGS  at Great Grandma Sharyn’s house.   Yes, you heard me mom and dad, I went to hang with a little sister today… not mine OF COURSE, but Great Great Aunt Ida’s!    YOUR GRANDMA SHARYN… you see Aunt Ida had to go do some ‘Great Great Aunt’ Stuff, and Great Grandma Sharyn, well as you already know…she can get a worryin’ when someone she loves has “stuff” goin’ on…so I went to hang with her so she would not be so nervous, I thought I could distract her a bit….. chew up things, spit up a bit, maybe have a diaper or two to change, you know usual baby distraction stuff which is different than Great Great Aunt Stuff,  but instead…  SHE MADE ME A SCRAMBLED EGG!   I go to cheer her up, and she is cooking for me!   Crazy huh?   I stayed there and tried crawling a bit, till I was ‘tuckered’ out, (20 seconds or so) and then, I just rolled all over her floor… no dog or kitty hair … just fun fun fun, and when there is FUN AND FOOD, well you can count the “Guge” in… cause I am all about fun and food. 

You caught me without anything in my mouth.... ha... how did you do that?  

So as you can see the day was full, and I was busy, I even stopped by to say hi to Poppy, Great Papa, Uncle Dave, and Dr. Randy at the Royal Oak office and took Poppy your favorite chicken sandwich for his lunch…  I was  an object of distraction one moment, and a gnawing, drooling machine the next… but still as always,  I am your Little Miss Adorable,

Love you both very much... please know as soon as there is a way to take a photo of my top teeth that are coming in, the beast will get one!

WORKING ALL THE CRAWLING MUSCLES!

Nana says no playing on stairs, but if one of my aunts helps me, I at least ATTEMPT to crawl...

Hey there Mom and Dad,

I am not really allowed by the stairs… but Nana made an exception, since if I am put on the floor, I just roll on over, and don’t even bother workin’ those crawlin’ muscles….

So here I am, workin’ it… and workin’ it… and doing pretty darn good.

I had a fun day today.   All of us had such a busy week at camp that we just hung out at camp and waited to see how many football teams lost that Nana chose to win.   Seems Great Uncle Brian, had a good week, Nana, NOT SO GOOD.  

Here are some awesome photos of me for you to enjoy… I am so curious and I am exploring all the time.  I am TEN MONTHS OLD TODAY.  It is my ten month princess-versary and I am just loving being a big girl. 

Thinking about going outside to play...

Here is my princess-versary gift to you Mom and Dad, the first few pages were taken today, and then Nana tried to recap the past ten months with some photos that have not been seen before and a few that you have.    Enjoy, and know that I am always your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

Things Change… OR DO THEY?

I LOVE ICE CREAM... EVEN IF IT WAS ONLY A TASTE!  ICE CREAM ROCKS!

Dear Mom and Dad…

Today is October 2nd, and on this date in history this man was born…

Ghandi

This is Gandhi, as you probably know,

Nana says he was born on this date in 1869.   History tells us, he wanted to promote peace… and he died trying to do that….Some things change so fast, like me growing, or learning new things, but other things seem to never change, or take forever to change.   I wish that there were peace on this planet everywhere.   Call me silly, or tell Nana, she is a dreamer.. but the sooner there is peace the sooner, my mom and dad come home to me.   Lifetimes seem to come and go, and the change is not always fast enough nor does it seem enough, but we keep trying… all of us are in this together, and we all need to keep on trying….

Nana put up this photo, of this face because, she has done her history homework….and she says, if this face could not bring us peace  –  she thinks she may just have a solution,  …  BELOW IT, OR ABOVE IT…she says, the pictures above his and below represent the face of peace, the face of happiness, and the face of our future…. if everyone on the planet could just see the faces of all the little children… and know…. they are why we need all mommy’s and daddy’s home… with their children… living in peace.

Laugher, and smiles... to make all those who see it... happy!

You know I just wanted to tell you both I love you very much, and as I approach my tenth princess-versary,  in just a few days, I realize that in just about eight weeks, I will be done with princess-versaries, and will have my VERY FIRST BIRTHDAY!   From there on, we will celebrate every year my birthday celebration on December 4th!   In just about 8 weeks (hopefully) we will get a to have our special  ‘visit’.  

I cannot wait!

In these past few months  – much has changed for me as you can see.  When I came to camp I was an infant sleeping quite a bit, and now, I am a baby who SLEEPS NOT!  I am a sponge who absorbs EVERY THING AND WANTS TO MISS NOTHING!   I have three teeth.  Two on the bottom and one that has just come thru on top.  (with more to follow quickly it seems)  I am eating all kinds of great foods… and loving every second of trying new things.  Tonight we met Great Papa and GG-ma and guess what, I tried an itty bitty bit of Hagen Daz ice cream.. and CAN I JUST SAY –  LUV IT!  

Today we stayed at camp until our meeting at the mall to see the Great Grandparents… Nana had to get Aunt Arri some back to school stuff and we grabbed food at the food court… but for me it was a first time trip to that mall and there was plenty of EYE CANDY EVERYWHERE.   We only went into one store, but it was full of decorations for the holiday’s and I was all a flutter with excitement over the lights, and sparkles everywhere.  Nana took some photos to day to show you my princess personality.  So enjoy the many faces of GUILLIANNA Princess of Personality!

THE FACE OF FREEDOM TO CHOOSE!

SWEETNESS...

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS....

THE FACE OF HUMAN COMPASSION, UNDERSTANDING, AND  TOLERANCE

THE FACE OF HUMAN COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING

THE FACE OF LEARNING, OF LIVING LIFE, AND OF OPPORTUNITY

THE FACE OF LEARNING, OF LIVING, OF OPPORTUNITY

I am the face of all that is pure, all that is innocent, and all that is good.   I represent the face of freedom, of tolerence, of hope and of promise.   I am every son, I am every daughter, and  a reminder that life holds for us children,  opportunity beyond measure.   I am a very lucky child.   Nana and Poppy have six children, and all six of their kids, as well as myself…have all of these same ‘faces’.   It matters not what religion you are, what culture you are from, it matters not where you are from…. being good to people, being a good person…. and giving of yourself, to improve the quality of the life of another…  each of us in our own way, can make this world just a bit nicer.  Until tomorrow Mom and Dad, I am as always, your Little Miss Adorable , your daughter who is praying for peace and your safe return, just one of many children… who have a mom or dad there in the land of sand or elsewhere.    I am, your sweet little LMA,

THE FACE OF PURE AND INNOCENT LOVE!

Little Miss Wonderful... Little Missing Mom and Dad!

Guillianna!
