Off to see the Wizard!

Mom brought me to the Palace Theatre today to see The Wizard of Oz on the big screen! We met Aunt Stacey and cousin Sophia there. Before the movie there were fun games to play in the lobby. After the movie we met Uncle Spike and Dad in Albany for dinner!

"Boardwalk with 3 houses? That'll be $1400, please."

Merry Christmas

I guess Santa kept me on the good list, because there were presents under the tree on Christmas morning. Later in the day, G'ma & 'Pa, Uncle Mike, Aunt Sheila, Uncle Eric & Aunt Julianne all came over for games and fun and dinner. Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Eve

We went to Uncle Spike and Aunt Stacey's house for Christmas Eve. I got to play with cousin Sophia all night and visit with Grandma, Grandpa, cousin Sierra, and eat smelts and scalille!

Santa drawing

I drew a picture of Santa for Uncle Mike (aka Uncle Ho Ho) & Aunt Sheila. Not bad, eh?

Hat & tooth

Like my new winter hat? It's got a part to cover my face for those really cold, windy days. It also covers the hole in my mouth where my front tooth used to be. It was loose and I helped wiggle it out this morning.

NYC and the LEGO Store!

We visited Ken & Tom this weekend and went into the city to have dinner and check out the new LEGO store in the Flatiron District!

Jenga

Santa!

Mom and Dad brought me to breakfast at Lakeside Farms, and guess who was there? Santa! He told me that he knew my Elf on a Shelf, Albert and I told him that I've been good (mostly), and what I was hoping for at Christmas. Then I ate pancakes.

A rainy saturday

The weather outside was chilly and wet, but that didn't stop me from having some fun today. My friend Gabby invited me to join her at soccer practice at Afrim's Sports. After that, I went to the library with Dad and took out some books. I even convinced him to take a quick walk around the nature path.

Coconut

I'm nuts for coconuts. Well, not really, but I think they're pretty good. It was fun to split open, eat and drink the water inside.

Elf on a shelf

Everyone, meet Albert. He's my elf. He keeps an eye on the family and reports back to Santa nightly. By naming him, I gave him the Christmas magic he needs to fly to and from the North Pole. Every morning when I wake up, he's in a different spot in the house. As I told my Dad, "it's fun having an elf in the house".
