Monday at the Mall…

Dear Mom and Dad,

Nana took me to the mall today when everyone finished work.   We all met there because Nana cannot get the stroller and carseat out by herself.  So all the campers came… EVERY SINGLE ONE… and you know what I did?   At the mall is a food court, and in it, is the carousel.  Do you remember it?  Well, Aunt Arrianna took me on it, in the PRINCESS CARRIAGE, and all the other campers, like Uncle Nick and placed themselves around the carousel so that no matter which direction I went there was a familiar face.   Here I am on my first carousel ride.  I am too small for horses, but I sit just fine in the PRINCESS CARRIAGE ON THE CAROUSEL, doesn’t that just figure.  (Fit for a princess!)

We just got on, and here I am before the ride started…. I am so excited, and it is full of lights and pretty things for me to look at….

Ready set GO!

I liked this very much… and hopefully we will go back to the mall soon so I can ride it again.   But, it’s funny, we came today for jammers, the next size up, and even though this is the coolest ride ever, Poppy seems to get nervous when Nana comes to the mall, do you think he might be afraid of the carousel…. Hmmmmm…. this was not scary… don’t worry Poppy there is nothing to be ‘SCARED OF AT THE MALL’.  Right Nana?  I don’t know it is something about when I say “Nana” and “Mall” together.  Here I am on another ride at the mall… it goes around and around and up and down…

I am fascinated…. truly fascinated…. Maybe I really will be a pilot.  Who knows…

Or a race car driver…

I do not know… so many choices, and so many things to learn and do …but what I do know is this… I love you very much, I am being very good at camp, and all the campers here, well they are always giving me the ROYAL TREATMENT.   I truly feel several pairs of hands, pampering my pampers… every day.   I am today as always, your LITTLE MISS ADORABLE, your daughter,

Guillianna!   By the way, Nana found the ‘jammers’ she was looking for too.   I am now a 6-9 monther!  Woo woo….!

A picnic..at my Great Aunt and Great Uncle’s home!

Dear Mom and Dad,

Today I went to a picnic at the home of my Great Aunt Kris and Great Uncle David.  There were so many relatives there who say hello to both you and to daddy.  They wanted you to know we all were thinking about you. 

Some of mommy’s relatives got to meet me for the very first time.   Cuz Micheal, AnneMarie, and her daughters were there.   Great Great Aunt Shirley and Great Aunt Ida, hadn’t seen me since April.   So that was way cool.

Cuz Nancy was there, and so was Great Aunt Kris’ mommy and daddy Ms. Syd, and Mr Larry. 

So we had a nice visit with them all, and then, I was ‘tuckered out’, ha ha so funny huh daddy, but I was and we came back to camp for a little R&R of our own. 

So here I am, looking adorable for my picnic photo op.

How was your Fourth of July?  Nana is still sad they won’t let Mommy see my photo shoot or read my letters and that if she is to go on line it is so hard for her to  do so.   I try to tell Nana, hey let me join the Army so I can go hang with them, but she is pretty strict and says..NO !   My own little drill sarg… here at camp keepin me on my toes… and making me follow all the rules.   ( ha…. did I say rules?   oh yea, thats it, camp Nana, rules number one… GUILLIANNA MAKES ALL THE RULES)

Me sharing the spotlight with my Aunt, who by the way says, HI, to both of you!   It was a very pretty day, and I love being outside as you know.

More of the day… hoping they make you smile, and see me happy and doing just fine… don’t worry about me, start your list of things to do with me when you are home.   I LIKE TO STAY BUSY AND EXPLORE!

I am definately a curious little girl, sometimes so curious  that I won’t even look at Mr. Nikon…

Nana say’s she doesn’t mind, she wants to you see me as often as possible,  and that this way you can see me from every single angle.

Just when I think she is done, she wips that thing out, and snap snap snap…

More photos, than you can ever imagine… and good news…

Only sang, Oh… say… a bazillion times today..

as opposed to the 3 and yes I said 3 bazillion times yesterday…

My Aunts and Uncle say… enjoy this, and appreciate that it is dwindling … as the holiday’s are only 6ish months away…. and something about there is a local radio station that begins holiday music in October sometime… they have forewarned me this MEL-O-DICIOUS SINGING FRENZY is just a downside to camp… a ‘hiccup’ or ‘an excess baggage’ if you will… well… I have my own hiccups, who needs Nana’s too?

Me… and more me….

Wondering, is there a record for most photos of a baby?   I may win this event!   I will still send you photos and love letters, and hope you can get a computer so you can see me ANYTIME you want to.

Sereiously, tell me, when you look at this face, how do you stop yourself from kissing the screen?   Until tomorrow, please remember, I love you both, and send big hugs and kisses to you in the land of sand.  As always, your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

Guillianna!

Thank you to GG-ma, Great Papa, Uncle David, Aunt Kris, Steven, Bryan, Dr. Randy and Ms. Susie, and all of their family and friends.   Thank you to Mr. Bob, Mrs. Dee, Gappy Pam, and Great Uncle Brian, Cuz Brittany and Mrs. Pat.  All of you made my first Fourth of July and extra special day.  You helped me spread wishes for the safe return of everyone serving overseas, and here are some photos of us celebrating our special day… and certainly the black beast,aka,’MR NIKON’ and Nana captured some of me… being Little Miss Adorable the All American!   Thank you mom and dad, and enjoy  photos of my first FLAGGING day.  

We tried to line as many streets as possible with a little flag, and a heart full of patriotism for our country!   Nana says, with help from all the friends and family …. we were able to get out to so many communities and hopefully next year we will get flags to even more people.   Nana loves the flag!   But this you already knew….  Here is my day…. it was great…. CLICK ON MY PICTURE TO SEE THE ENTIRE THING… and enjoy!

I hope that all our friends and neighbors enjoyed getting a little present from the heart… and that you have lot’s more people who send well wishes and prayers for your SAFE AND SPEEDY return to me!   I love you mom and dad…. and as always I am YOUR LITTLE MISS ADORABLE, your daughter,
