it has been a while...

hello my followers!
 here is a shout-out to my fans spanning the globe!...
okay, maybe not the globe.
dog and i haven't figured out world domination quite yet, so let me rephrase:
here is a shout-out to my many fans spanning the US of A..
california, colorado, new york, or just here in florida, just know that this babe loves YOU.


speaking of dog...
yes, that is her..by my side..sleeping..i think.
mum caught her in the act just yesterday morning while i was taking a nap.
i am told that this happens often while i am asleep, apparently it was a good idea to sneak dog some snacks.
her allegiance has been won...success! 

well, to bring you to speed:
wednesday, was doctor day...note to self?
ALWAYS. HATE. DOCTOR DAY.
in case you are wondering, i now weigh a total of 11 pounds 2 ounces and measure an astounding 23.5 inches long!
according to the doctor, mum is in for a real treat because, i most likely will be skipping crawling and going straight into walking!
i already hold my own head up (as only superior babes do) and am studying the ways of communication.
grandma and great-grandma keep trying to get me to say something like "ahh-hooo"
mum says its garlic in spanish...i am confused by this.
at any rate, i will most likely be saying my first word around november, so:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!
 i had my first "shot"..which really..REALLY stunk.
i really didn't know what they were, but i can assure you now i will never EVER forget what they are.
apparently napping at the doctors is dangerous.
 i shall make a mental note to always be aware of my surroundings and never trust a lady in colorful smocks.
nice try lady of bright colors, though you tried to distract me with your colorful clothing, it only worked for a second....you are lucky that i am healthy enough to pull through from this fiasco!
okay, exageration but mum says i handled it like a champ..and only cried for a little bit.
mum was a little teary-eyed, but being my favorite person that she is, she knew just what to do to make me feel better: lots of hugs and kisses!
what a great mum she is..
apparently, the shot was supposed to make me sleepy..
mum says i looked drugged...
nothing a good solid feeding won't solve..
BEAM ME UP MUMMY!
and so she did...and i felt much better!

later in the week, mum and grandma decided to go to the ellenton outlets to shop!
(i decided right away that i needed a consolation prize for being such a awesome babe at the doctors)
i stood my ground and stated that i wanted nothing less than a new purse...so i picked out an adorable dooney and bourke!
i think it will go so nicely with all of my clothes..
but mum says that i have to wait until i turn 5, when at least i will be able to carry my own purse.
 it's a sad day when someone tramples your dreams of being a fashionista!
all i can do now is pray that when i turn 5, she will remember this little gem for my birthday gift...
i later discovered that i am an expert coupon clipper!
mum has started couponing to save a little money, and  frankly, i am the best assistant!
 here, look at me all assistant-like..helping sort the coupons..and..well...okay maybe i was napping..
but hey, it's the thought that counts right?


just so you guys know, i am planning to update the blog only once per week, so look to see updates on sundays!
apparently, mum has to do chores and housework during the week, and cannot blog AND care for my ever growing list of babe-like needs PLUS do all the rest of the chores..
maybe i could help out more around the house..
make a few less stinky diapers, aim my spit-up for the sink..that sort of thing.

or perhaps i can just eat, sleep, poop and toot like normal...
yeah, that sounds much much better...
anyway, i am due for a nightcap.
sleep well, and eat up my fans...
cheers and love from your babe!

mmmm tacos....


hello everyone!
 your resident cuteness here to tell you that i now weigh a whopping 10 pounds (thanks mum!) i have officially turned 7weeks old, and tell you a little bit about the slice of heaven i encountered the other day...

if you have been to this little gem of a restaurant, you KNOW that this babe enjoyed every bite...
(figuratively speaking that is)

you guessed it:
bella the babe went to THE TACO BUS.
 yes, it deserved all caps, bold, AND underlining. 
 mum chose the carne asada tacos to eat, and boy did i try to steal them!
it's a shame that i don't have the capacity to ingest these nuggets of gold, otherwise i'm sure that i would eat at least 17...
taking after grandpa who alone...yes, ALONE, ate 17 tacos in mexico....maybe i get my bottomless pit of a stomach from him...it is a thought :]
anyways, here is a pic i (ok, mum) snapped of the foooooooood...
it's ok, you can drool if you want...
thank you mum for choosing to ingest this delectable meal on my behalf...well done!
also, i enjoyed a nice ice cold bottle of coca cola to top off this amazing lunch...
 okay not really, but i look adorable next to it right?
which means i can have it right...right?....RIGHT???
....drat.
well anyway, we came home and mum and dad gave me a nice warm bath...
i am starting to enjoy these well planned events, not as bad as they had first seemed.
here i am looking so demure and soapy:
i know, you are dying at how cute i am..
mum and dad keep saying i am the cutest babe on the planet; not to be big headed, but:
yeah, i am.
:]

after the bath, it was time for jammies, and the ceremony of the tossing of the last poopy diaper...
(turned out to be the tossing of the last 3 poopy diapers)
mum and dad let me hangout on their bed while they watched hunger games..
i'm not sure what it is about, but if it has to do with food: I AM GAME.
i must have been tired though because two minutes in...this happened:
it's just too comfy on their bed...its like a magic place.
i am now starting to yawn...oh wait, no it hunger...i am hungry!
i am going to raid the fridge! 
that's all for now lovies!

cheers!

the babe goes to cracker barrel!

and costco.
yay for new adventures!

so today mum and i joined grandma and grandpa for breakfast at cracker barrel!
by way of transfer: whatever mum eats, i eat...therefore i had:
paaaaancakes with turkey sausage and coffee!
(decaf of course! i am a babe after all!)
it DELISH!
i basically told the waitress "HEY! bring the food here to me in the stroller!".....
but she didn't listen to me.

needless to say when my teeth come in, mum and dad better take me here....
this is not a request, it is a demand!!


while we were waiting for our food, i challenged grandma to a quick game of the "peg game".
guess who's not an eg-nor-a-moose!

then i challenged grandpa to a game of checkers...
needless to say i won again! 
(i'm quite the smart babe!)

i even decided i needed a couple souvenirs to celebrate all my winning!
buuuuuuuut, mum said i couldn't have them because, i don't have any teeth.....
DRAT!

later, i helped grandma and grandpa go grocery shopping at a wonderful place called:
COSTCO.
it was awesome in there..everything a babe would need for endless eating!
i tried looking at the coupon book to see if they had any specials on babe-like goodies...
turns out they have a whole section devoted to it!
as far as i'm concerened, we can get rid of the diapers/wipes/shampoo 
and bring in more of the formula!
YUMMO!
 
 ......and speaking of formula:
yup, i drank the whole thing.
all 4 ounces.
i am a little piglet.
 
 so all in all a great day hanging out with my grandparents!
they are oodles of fun, and i love them very much!
(even if grandpa takes endless pictures of me, and grandma smothers me with kisses)

well, that's all for now folks!
i'm taking a well deserved nap, and possibly, another nightcap!

cheers!
