Food coma & Sugar high

On: November 8th, 2009 at 3:56 pm | In: General

Nov. 8I’m hungry. Not a little bit either… a lot. I eat 4x a day and have taken the hunger level to a new high by requiring a 5th meal around 2am. I think it’s because I’ve just been so busy lately, what with rolling and playing with toys and throwing everything (I’ve got quite an arm), I need more food to keep up my energy level.

Mommy has not been pleased with my extra snack in the middle of the night. To combat this, I’ve been given extra food at dinner to fill the empty pit that is my stomach. It seems to have worked as I’ve been sleeping through the night again since I started midnight snacking a couple weeks ago. And I’ve been expanding my horizons to all the new foods out there. I’ve tried every flavor of baby food so it’s on to people food. I really want what’s on YOUR plate.

Nov. 8And I got news for you… It’s not quite official yet, but I can crawl. Pick up your stuff if you don’t want me to drool or choke on it.

So much Halloween candy… so little time. Slowly, I’m finishing my bucket-o-loot, but it’s disappearing faster than I’m eating it. Someone is eating my candy… and they’re taking all the good stuff! I’m not naming names, but they go by “Mommy” and “Daddy.” I overheard them talking and I hear that there may be more candy coming because Daddy didn’t get enough. Good! Maybe I can get my hands of some of it too.

Cowgirl JessieAnd after the costume hysterics and all, I finally have a good photo of my cowgirl costume. Maybe we can do it again next year…

And coming to a Christmas card mailing soon… Pics of me and Evan! We didn’t listen to directions and were crabby, tired and hungry, but we’re so cute that it didn’t matter.

Would you like some tea?

Try my specialty: Sugar, Pepper and Sour Cream tea with water. Served hot – you have to hold the handle on the teacup so you don’t get burned. Want some more? Of course you do. You want at least 6 cups and I’ll make a new pot for a few more.

You know what else is good? Candy. I want some candy. And gum. Can I have some gum. Ok, after breakfast? Can I have some candy? Not before breakfast either? I want a Capri Sun. Or juice. Can I have some joosch?

Can I water the plants? Of course. Do you want your plants really watered? Or just a little watered? You give me the watering can or the hose and I’ll tell you I’m watering the plants, but I’ll really just spray and splash and get everything wet except the plants. And you can’t take the hose away from me… I’m not done. You water your own plants on your own time, okay?

We're holding hands!

I had my first sleepover – at Nana and Papa’s house – this week. Mommy went to Summerfest and I got to hang out, stay up late and eventually go to sleep in Nana and Papa’s living room. Mommy got home late after the Bon Jovi concert and I was good and let her sleep (ok, I made Nana get up) – however, Elise woke Mommy up anyways. Oh well, I tried.

I got to go with Elise to her friend Hadley’s birthday party last night. I got really, really crabby and Elise didn’t want to sit still for the outdoor movie, but everyone stayed dry when it started to sprinkle and still had a lot of fun.  Happy 3rd birthday Hadley!

Daddy made a pool in our yard today! I only got to put my toes in since it was my naptime and the water was pretty chilly, but my sister splashed around for hours! Our neighbor Katie came over to see the pool too. She got in with her clothes on!

Playing outside all day made us both really tired. After an early dinner and an early bath came an early bedtime. We’re both going to sleep good tonight!
