Going to Chicago…

Lisa June 5, 2009 1Comments

Dear Mom and Dad,

Hope all is well in the land of sand…. I am taking a mini trip with Poppy to Chicago.   We will bring Nana along for the trip… she can be handy especially when I leave Princess ‘presents’ for people… seems none of my Aunts or Poppy agree about the ‘roses’ thing, but Nana’s got my back.   She says I always smell like roses!  

I will send my love letter very early today, since Nana can’t take dictation while traveling….

Today is otherwise ho hum, a pipe broke at Nana’s, so Mr. Repair man will have to come, and after that, we will wait for a different repair person to fix a potty in the house…  I say… give everyone PAMPERS and we wouldn’t have to call the potty repair person…

We promised a photo of my new rocker and here it is…

Doesn’t it look cozy…

I absolutely love being rocked and yes, I know, I should just go lay down in my crib at night, but, as far as being spoiled goes… I say…you’re only a baby once and I figure, I should get rocked as often as I like… cause one day, I will be like you two… working hard, and having no time to be rocked…

This chair did not come with an off switch for the singing module that comes on everytime I sit with Nana…

No volume control either..  hmmmmm….

It’s okay… I am getting used to the singing… but it’s so weird how Nana makes up words as she goes… what’s that all about?…

I will write you again tomorrow, and tell you about my short trip to Chicago….

and don’t forget Daddy needs to e-mail  Nana the actual zip code  for HIS address to Nana…the one she has is not right… and we REEEEEALY need to send this stuff so I can make my daddy smile… I love you both… and will always be your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

Guillianna!

MY SIX MONTH PRINCESS-VERSARY!

Lisa June 4, 2009 2Comments

Dear Mom and Dad…

I am six months old today!   I got a call from my case manager, for my medical care today, and she will wait to hear from my doctor on June 12th, to see how I am doing. 

I feel great.  I am doing great.   The only sad news… is that I was so busy celebrating my sixth month princess-versary, that by the time Nana and Poppy got me home, I didn’t have time to put on my lucky RED WING JERSEY!    Those Penguins beat the Wings, and now…. it is a 2-2 series.   Don’t worry though I will be in the appropriate spirit stick attire next game….

Me and a Penguin,

at a mediation,

working out the details of my future as a

little ‘spirit stick’

‘I am only six months and could potentially lose my job here Mr. Penguin…’  I told him..

and hopefully he will change his ways, and let me be SUPER SPIRIT STICK once again…. ( don’t let any of the RED WING FANS KNOW, but Nana and Poppy… well they had “groceries” to buy and they didn’t get me dressed into my SPIRIT attire tonight)   They slipped it on me later, when the damage was already done… but I refuse to take the blame alone here… I am a littel dependent still on the CAMP directors to dress me still and that includes my work clothes, I mean how can a spirit stick be spirited when dressed in plaid Capri’s and looking like a tourist? 

Also sad news about some things we sent in a care package to Daddy-O… the POST OFFICE cannot use the address Nana has.   They say the zip code is incorrect.  So no package for you until we can verify with daddy his zip code!   I think Nana told you I love the outdoors.  It makes me so curious and so happy.   Here are some of my photos from today. 

Here I am concentrating very seriously about ‘my bunny’, I know it may not be as important as some of the stuff you got going on in IRAQ, but I take my toys very seriously…. I had no idea, how my bunny got outside, and who would keep it from running away…. look at how hard I am concentrating….

Nana is also very sorry about the fact that there  were so few photos of my pink little sailor suit mommy wanted to see on yesterday.   She let Aunt Arriannatake most of them with the black beast, and let’s just say, the beast was not co operative…. I was very co operative, and Aunt Arri tried so hard… but THE BEAST CAN BE A LITTLE TRICKY SOMETIMES….like tonite, there I was trying to give you a little wave hello, and Nana was holding me for the shot…

I was being absolutely gorgeous and talented… but the camera, had to play hard to operate for its operator…. so sad.

 THE BEAST, ruined my little hello to you from me  –  on  my Princess-versary….. but Nana put it up for you to see  anyway, just so you would see how big I am, and how adorable I still am  –  even though older, and it is true I have matured to be a 6 MONTH OLD!   (Party… my crib, 2:00am!)   Oh, maybe not 2:00am, I am getting bigger after all, maybe I will try sleeping all night again soon…. nah…. more fun hangin’ with Nana in the night right now.   She say’s less time to worry about things in Iraq, and how her daughter and son-in-law are doing if she is busy… so I help keep her busy.   Nana and poppy got me a present today.   I have my own ROCKING CHAIR, and Nana says it is  for me, but I think her chubby bottom is who it was for…. either way, I will find a way to benefit from it.  LOVE TO BE ROCKED TO SLEEP, and hey, who wouldn’t.   Poppy had to assemble it late tonight, so she could not photograph it for you today but you can bet, I will have a photo shoot or two in this cool rocker of mine.  

HEY, I’M NOT TAKING THE BLAME FOR THIS ONE… you really had better find my Jersey and get it on my butt before GAME 5 Nana, or I think there are some family members who just might come after you and then what, who will direct the zoo/camp?  

Well Mom and Dad, you can see, here in Michigan we are just sending you a little bit of our drama… to take your mind off of yours there… hope it’s working… and you smiled at least once today, while thinking of me, your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,   (THIS IS ME… NOT BELIEVING THE NEWS OF A LOSS! )

Guillianna!   (P.S.   and if it is not enough they lost, Nana can no longer tell time, this post to you was not finished until 12:15 our time, so I hope it was not too late and that when you got a chance to see me, I WAS THERE, Nana is sorry it may have been later than usual)   Yikes Nana, get your act together!

Just another day at camp!

Dear Mom and Dad,

It was just another day at camp, no real big news to report.  I am still recovering from the loss to those dreaded Penguins… but I am dealing with it better because, I was thinking maybe my Great Grandma is a Pittsburgh Penguin fan.   I don’t know for sure, but if so, then she will at least be happy they won.   Mommy has been waiting for me to wear this one little outfit for so long, and here I am wearing it… how do you like it mom?  I am sitting in my Princess swing that has stars glowing above it, and spinning…. do you like this one?

More of the day… here I am playing patty cake with Nana, I love this game, and while she has to help me, it makes me crack up everytime.

Do I look like I am getting big, and doing well?

Me in my ‘flying baby’ pose, Nana lifts me up, and I laugh.  

I love talking my baby talk lingo, and sqealing a lot!

Today Nana and I played with Aunt Arri .  It was her first day without going to school.  

We had a good day!

Here I am, visiting with my buddy Mr. Griff!

I had so much fun just playing, and Nana hopes you have a lot of fun looking at my photo’s.  Mr. Griff resting on Nana.  He likes when I pet him, and I love touching him, he feels so soft.  We are both DROOLERS…

HE HOWEVER DROOLS FAR MORE THAN I DO… AND HIS IS THICK…AND GROSS, MINE, WELL IT IS PRINCESS PERFECT OF COURSE!

Nana thinks this picture shows some of my adorable little personality…

I think I am just being me…

and thinking up a plan…

to do something…

what exactly I don’t know, but I am thinking…

and the end result I am sure will be a laugh or two… cause I love laughing.

I want you to know that I love you with all my heart, that I am being so very good, and that today and always, I am your LITTLE MISS ADORABLE, your daughter,

AND SWEET LITTLE PRINCESS…

WITH THE BIGGEST AND MOST BLUE EYES,

GUILLIANNA!

HAVE A GREAT DAY MOM AND DAD…

Today I Went To School!

Dear Mom and Dad,

Today I went to high school, to see Aunt Arri, celebrate her last day in the school.   She is the last of Nana’s six to finish high school, and all the seniors walk the hallway in their cap and gown, while family stand and watch.  The are led down the hall by the superintendent of the district, and Aunt Arrianna was the last one in the line…. Great Aunt Pam came with Cuz Brit, and Poppy made it so Aunt Mikayla, Aunt Alyx and Aunt Allyssa were there too.   Uncle Nick had Nana bring flowers and tell Aunt Arri Congratulations since he is still in the South Pacific, and I was your little spirit stick and cheered her on for you.   There were so many kids, and lots of cheering, we also gave her a mylar balloon that I am planning on confiscating since I love it so much.

Daddy called me today.  I was not talkative, nor was I  I squeal for him, because I was too busy looking at the lights on the telephone, and about to take a nap.  Next time he calls I hope to be more in the mood to tell my stories.  Again I was a human ‘spirit stick’ and was adorned in my RED WING ATTIRE, HOWEVER YOU WILL NOTICE I NOW HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL ON MY JERSEY…. GREAT AUNT PAM FOUND US  THE ADDITIONAL LETTER WE NEEDED TO MAKE IT PERFECT FOR TONIGHTS GAME!  Thank you!

So they were playing the Penguins… and I hate to say, they lost.   Maybe I should not have put on my jammers before the game ended, but I prefer to believe they lost because of their own mistakes and not my effort as a human spirit stick.  Here I am frustrated…

and here I am not too fond of that play…. but what can a little spirit stick do?

 Penguins won?

Darn…

It’s okay, maybe next game.

Meanwhile, I will play with my personal penguin… that I borrowed from Uncle Nick.

So that makes one borrowed monkey from Aunt Alyx, and one borrowed penguin… but who is really keeping track?  I say share, share alike, besides they don’t want my BOB, or my toys, Aunt Allyssa would love my clothes, but they won’t fit her… so… SHARE SHARE ALIKE…. hee ! hee!  Let ’em try to share my diapers, and passy’s.    So if we aren’t too depressed about the Red Wing defeat, I can share a bit of good news… I am still a rock star in the rolling department…

READY SET GO!

Once in position, looking adorable, I may add…

Once airborne, gravity does it’s thing…. and like magic…. ROLLING BABY!

PERFECT LANDING… everytime!

Love you both very much, and until tomorrow, I am saying good night, as always, Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,

(Arggghhh!   Those Penguins)   Guillianna!
