Sunday, Sydney and a “Super Day”

Lisa July 26, 2009 1Comments

Dear Mom and Dad,

Today was so fun, and I had so much fun.   Poppy and Nana had a special chance to visit some friends for a wonderful brunch.  Ms. Sydney, Ms. Phyllis and Mr. B. all sat out in a beautiful (VERY BEAUTIFUL) garden, and then ate a very good brunch.   Can you believe that Nana, was so busy talking up a storm she didn’t even take one picture of the beautiful garden.   And you know how I love being outside and flowers… silly Nana.   They were so nice to me, they even thought of me when they went to a ballgame, and they gave me a present.  YES, here it is.   I will get right on making them a thank you note! (you know how Nana is about that kind of stuff, being polite and sending a note, is high priority)  I will sit her down tomorrow and have her transcribe a lovely note from all of us…. they got me a pink onesie that has this on the front! After we left Ms. Sydney’s brunch, we came back to camp.   I had a fun field trip and Nana and Poppy, well it was fun for them too.   Nana misses the chance to visit with Mr. B, since she cannot work anymore, and doesn’t see him around.  So a chance to sit and visit like that, is truly rare, and so appreciated.  

Tonight I got invited to a picnic with Great Grandpa Ray.   It was awesome, all of his kids were there, even Great Aunt Linda was in from Tennessee. And you know what… Nana didn’t even get a picture there!    I mean really Nana, are you on vacation or what….either the beast is in my face constantly or “forgetful’ Nana doesn’t get a single photo…. !   After the day of visiting family and friends, I came back to camp for ‘tubby time’ and Nana took photos of my hair for you to see.

and this is me being silly… and looking at the world through rose colored glasses…. which explains why I am happy!  

So…..as you can see…

it is pretty straight, and it has grown quite a bit.   Nana has not gotten me a hair cut, but if it keeps growing like this… I may be able to wear bows like mommy did one day soon. 

Well, it has been a long day, and after my story I will go to sleep for the night. 

Last night I was up every few minutes wanting Nana to help my teeth… and give me a cool passy… which she did.   I think I will do much better tonight, it wasn’t so bad today.

Personally, I prefer EAT the book time to READ the book time… but even if I am the Princess, NANA IS THE BOSS….. and she says it’s read the book time.   DARN….  Until tomorrow, know that I love you and that I miss you both…. and as always, I am – your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

Guillianna!

TEETHING IS TERRIBLE!

Dear Mom and Dad…

I spent all day teething… and really am not a fan.   Cold teethers and biting everything was the theme of the day.  Yet even in discomfort, I still find a way to smile, and will hopefully still make you smile.  I’m cute even when I am pouting… Nana says you want to see all about me… well today’s love letter is titled  Teething is Terrible, FOR A REASON!  I had some infant Tylenol, and a whole lot of cold things, as well as a tiny bit of baby Ambesol, which I hate the taste of more than the teething pain. 

aToday I will try to put a few more little video clips of myself in today’s love letter for you to see and hear!  I hope they work for you, and you enjoy them.   Nana, and Poppy, with all the other campers, send their love and hope you are both doing good.  Despite getting teeth, I still had a great day at camp. 

Me on the changing table…

Saturdays are awesome, all the campers play with me..  I like to call it ALL ABOUT THE GUGE TIME….  and I find it is every body’s personal favorite time of all…

Here is a video of me from today, hanging with my Aunties, and rolling around… what do you think… cute huh?

Well, I hope you know you are missed and loved very much.   Until tomorrow, please remember, I am (even if teething) your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

Guillianna!

Oh, by the way look at my cute little slippers.

Bet daddy wishes he had a pair, and I know if mommy were here , both her and I, we would both have a have a pair or TWO!

New stuff… trying anything possible…

Dear Mom and Dad, today is Friday, and I am trying anything possible to get myself just a little closer to you.  If this worked, which I think it did, you can click on my photo, and if you have speakers, you will hear my GUILLIANNA LAUGH!  We hope you will soon be able to follow my on the Nana cam, which if everything goes well, you can peek in on me, while sleeping during the night just like if my nursery was there with you, and see me sleep, the camera has night vision like you guys have, and you will be able to see in the dark…. cool huh…  well we will see.   Nana and I have a new friend at Hawking Technologies who is so nice and has been helping us work out the details… so that hopefully soon you can click on the NanaCam night or day and see me at Camp Nana!

Nana snapped up a few shots with the beast, and Uncle Nick a few with his camera.   Aunt Arri and Aunt Mikayla made the short video clip for you to hear my laugh.   I have rosey cheeks because I am TEETHING something fierce.   Here is a photo of the inside of my mouth for your viewing pleasure… YES … NANA FOUND A WAY… the little sharp edge of the two bottom front teeth are poking through, and HURT!   I’m a bit irritable, but nothing Nana hasn’t had to handle before… with six kids losing teeth, or getting in wisdom teeth, having wisdom or other teeth pulled, she has some experience with it… so I am in good hands.  

Did you think Nana would let this pass without a full on shot of it for you?   NOT A CHANCE!  Your lucky she dosen’t photograph EVERYTHING I do…. some days it seems like I see the beast more than I need to.

Uncle Nick …. are you trying to fool me, I know you have a camera, it may not be the “beast” but I am not fooled easily… still looking at the camera… and posing… that’s what us little princess’ do. 

Here I am in my car seat, beast in the face, on my way to eat dinner on FRIDAY with my GGma and Great Papa… it seems to have become our thing…  for the Aunties and Uncle  it is like “Friday’s with the Folks”… I am sure the Aunts’ and Uncle are ‘THRILLED’   Seriously though they actually don’t mind, not only is No Fun Nana, very happy to spend the time together (and is having so much fun) but all my Aunts and Uncle, seem to appreciate how much you and daddy must miss me, and figure, if you guys can sacrifice so much… they too can spend Friday’s, ‘thankful’ for family and being able to just be together, while PAMPERING THE PRINCESS of course.    Great Grandma and Papa too, get great joy spending time with thier kids, their grandkids, and ME!  They even went to Poppy’s office after dinner, and saw my GUILLIANNA SHOE ROOM!  Fun!

Instead of capturing a photo of Mr. Tooth, she got some cute shots of my kissable cheeks, my adorable little mouth, and my precious and angelic sweet baby face!  No it is not enough adjectives… there are so many words to describe me, and non of them include spoiled, or overindulged.

I know how much Daddy wanted me to be in Gymboree, but I may wait a bit for those classes… Nana and Mommy got to talk about it a bit today, and maybe if I wait a bit, it would be better.  All the other kids are walking except one, who was visiting and doesn’t usually go to this gym.   George was the only other “baby” at 9 months old, and since he was just visiting, well.. I wouldn’t get to hang with him.   But don’t worry, I promise to work hard at Camp.  

Nana was willing to take me, even if it meant taking lot’s of medicine to do it, and too much latex, but I am just a bit too small, and until my doctor says I can fight infections well enough, it is a bit risky.  They plan to get a latex free mat at home for me to practice crawling on,  since Nana’s place has little carpet due to her allergy.  I promise you both, they are keeping me safe, and teaching me here at Camp.   You may have noticed another little new thing on my website.   You can now translate my website into 47 different languages accurately.   Nana wanted to be sure that in case any family was reading in Romania, that the translation was accurate.   So why stop at Romanian?   Nana is so silly!  Gotta keep both eyes on Nana… she’s a smidge over the top when it comes to me and letting her daughter and son-in-law know what is happening here at Camp….so, thats what is happening here in Michigan… and today as always, I am your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter… (who is getting teeth) your precious, sweet, and amazing…

 Guillianna!

Gymboree Class and the Guge!

Dear Mom and Dad, 

Today was my first Gymboree class and I did an awesome job.   I was so good today.   Since today is Thursday, it means Great Aunt Pam came to visit me… and even though I was exhausted from my big gym workout and was a bit fussy because I AM ALSO GETTING TWO TEETH, well she made me smile…  and took me on a stroll in the evening that was oh so nice!  Here is the day for you to view.  I am so excited about the two teeth in my mouth on the bottom.  As soon as there is something for the ‘beast’ to capture Nana promises to get a photo for you.

I had an awesome day, Uncle Nick was so good, and Poppy came over on his lunch break to see me in Gymboree… Aunt Mikayla was there too, but the other campers had to work.    I am working on getting a small video uploaded, and hope you will be able to see that… but until tomorrow, I love you both, and as always am your LITTLE MISS ADORABLE, your daughter,

Guillianna!
