Well, I started this blog weeks ago...and I'm only getting to it now. So...sorry! : ) I will call it "Family Time"!

I sure love my family and I'm so happy and lucky that I get to live near them now. The other day (back when I started writing this), my Aunt CC and Uncle Paul called to see if I could come over and play. Well, I jumped up and down like a crazy man and agreed. Mommy dropped me off in my snowpants and all my gear ready to play with the doggies outside.

I built an enormous snow fort (decorated with some yellow snow, no doubt) and had a ball! After awhile out in the cold, we needed to warm up. So, they fed me cheese curls, chicken nuggets, two bowls of ice cream and hot chocolate. Oh - and some marshmallows on top. When Mommy picked me up and heard about my "meal" she laughed out loud and said it would be an interesting next few hours. And it was. I was off the wall for a short while then fell asleep on the couch for an hour. Nice!

Auntie Melissa and Grandma have been coming over to TJ-sit (NOT babysit) while Mommy is at her office twice a week. I wrestle and ride my bike with Auntie Melissa. We color too sometimes but mostly I just tell her to color things. I usually have to poop while she's here with I'm sure she thinks is pretty special. : ) I love seeing her more often and she brings good snacks. Grandma brought movies last time and I talked about them a lot when Mommy got home. She brought a special sticker and coloring work book too. I am really rockin' my colors lately! Grandma reads me books a lot too and makes good voices and she wore me out so much that I fell asleep on the couch as Daddy was walking in the door from his work. I'm so silly!

Thanks, Family!!! I miss you guys!
Love, TJ

Before I forget...

 Last weekend, I went to a train museum with Grandma and Grandpa! You heard me...a train museum! It was so cool. They had trains running throughout the place and mini exhibits. Mommy's favorite was the tiny amusement park with teeny bumper cars and roller coasters that moved. My favorite part was riding on a train! I got to ding the bell the whole time!!! We took a video but we're going to upload pictures only. Mommy doesn't have the patience to do a video.

After the museum, we went back to Grandma and Grandpa's to have wings with Uncle Bill, Auntie Melissa and Auntie Marcia. We played Hungry Hippos about 72 times and ate chocolate fudge cake. Even when desserts aren't necessary chocolate fudge cake, I still call most desserts chocolate fudge cake. Hilarious.Daddy and I played chase around the house and I squealed more than I ran! We had such a good time!!

The next day, we went to Bondi and Poppy's for the Super Bowl. We ate tons of food and got to see Aunt CC, Uncle Paul, Uncle Ben and Aunt Val. Even GG and Nonny showed up! We ate chocolate fudge cake there too and I polished off my bowl pretty quickly. I played in my office a lot. Bondi and I made it when I was over one day. I have a chair, "computer", American flag, doorbell and all sorts of stuff. Mommy thinks that's pretty hilarious too. I behaved great and helped out when anyone asked me too. I'm a good helper and it makes me feel good about myself.

I know I'm missing a lot here but I'm just really, really tired. Sorry guys, it's been a fun week, but that's all I've got. I need for springtime to get here soon. Can't    take    much   more   of    being    inside. G'nite!

No hands!

Hello Friends! I am proud to announce that I'll be starting Tot Soccer in a month or so! Mommy and Daddy are sending in my registration this week. Can you believe I'm old enough to join a little kid league? I'll be playing on Saturday mornings and I'm pretty sure I'll love it. If I don't, well, then I don't have to do it anymore. But I'm gonna try!

Soccer is the sport my Mommy got started in when she was a kid. She had a funny haircut and really short shorts and she started playing on an all-boys team. The next year, they added girls teams and she was kind of sad. She liked the boys! At first, Mommy wasn't very competitive and actually feared the ball. Believe it or not, Poppy had to pay her a quarter every time she touched the ball. Hahahaha - she'd be mad if she knew I was telling you all this! I'm pretty sure that my mom and dad won't have to pay me to go after the ball. I'll love running and running and running around the field and listening to directions. I'm pretty good at that.

I wonder if my shirt will fit or if it'll be really big and hang below my shorts. Mommy's kind of hoping for the sloppy cute little kid look. Love you!
