My 2nd Birthday

Today was my birthday, and incidentally, this is my last Rose's Thoughts blog post.

Here's a pic of my loot. I made out REALLY well. My favorite gift was Woody, from Toy Story. Thanks Susan and Shelly! and he talks!!!


Willow and Mommy made the cupcakes for me.. yum...



birthday dinner was homemade chicken pot pie and salad. Susan and Shelly joined us for dinner and dessert.




our small theme was curious George. I love George. George decorations, cake topper, clothes, and toy (I already had the toy)





what a glorious day. i'm not a baby anymore, whether I like it or not! See you on Mommy's blog or facebook.

Birthday Countdown

less than a week!

Goings On

I am totally into playgrounds now. I have NO FEAR. I love climbing up slides, climbing up high, whatever...fabulous!

----

Today, I got to use some birthday money at the Disney Store. I picked out a Roo stuffed animal and a cat stuffed animal (mommy thinks it's from the aristocats, but we're not sure...whatever, she's cute). I was so excited.

----

I sat on the potty today. Just for fun. Nothing happened. At all. We're not trying this yet - Mommy's not ready... that and the fact that I'm still content to hang out in my own filth leads her to think I may not be ready yet. Ha! I am however, obsessed with poop and pee, as it relates to my baby dolls and the cats.

------

I'm getting more words every day, and will even string 3 words together correctly. That's almost a sentence! Most of the time, I love playing with Willow, and I like to copy everything she does...which can get us both in trouble.

About one more week till my birthday! Yea!

Teeth Doctor

A trip to the dentist today. I actually behaved, and am proud to report NO CAVITIES!

Seating

I have officially rejected my booster seat, and insist on sitting in a grown-up chair.

I'm growing so fast!

Big Girl!

Sunday was my first day in the toddler (2-4) class at church. I loved it! I didn't care at all that Mommy left me in there. Granted, Willow was there too. The teacher said I did well, and didn't freak out when it came to sharing, etc.

When it was time to go, Mommy asked me what I did in class. My first response was "snack!" and then clapping my hands.

Willow informed Mommy that they learned to go spread the good news. Mommy said, "what's the good news?". Willow said "to be good."

Hmm.

or maybe Jesus...we'll keep working on that.

I was so excited to be in the big kid class.

----

If you ask me how old I am, I say "two!" and hold up two fingers. Yes, it's a month away, but we're practicing.

I also love singing along with Willow in my own Rose way.

Jokes

I like to tell jokes.

My first joke was a few months ago. I knocked on the door, and when mommy said "who's there", i said "willow" and laughed.

My second joke is a continuing one...

when I toot, mommy says "rose, did you toot?", and i'll say "mommy". then she'll say, "no, that was rosie"...to which i reply "daddy".

you get the idea. i just think this is hilarious.

in keeping with the toot jokes, i've learned to say "toot" and "burp"

and yes, i know how to say "excuse me", but not in this kind of context...we'll work on that.

ha!
