silver dollar city!

hey people! i went to silver dollar city with dad and amanda kay last weekend! it was a good time. amanda kay is a girl. silver dollar city is this place that you drive to, and there are rides and things to eat and look at. actually, mega man went to silver dollar city. here is a picture of him in his fighting stance.

we rode a lot of things. the frogs were sort of scary, because at certain places, they bounce really a lot, and it is all jerky and weird. but the lady bugs were fun. i rode that one twice.

let me tell you a story.

i tried to go through the tunnel, but i could not, because there was a cow in the tunnel. i smacked the cow, and he was so sad. i spanked him, and i locked the door. he was a mean cow. but the baby cow was nice. i gave him a hug. the end.

i told this story to mom and dad at Monte Ne, where we went to eat chicken and green beans and bread and corn. they did not really understand, even though i repeated it several times. they thought maybe i dreamed that, but really i just like to make up stories.

pac bed!

my grandma and papa brought me a new bed, and i love it! it is big, and it has pac man stuff all over it. mom says those sheets are almost as old as her. my friend britney made me the ghost monster pillow, and also a pac man one to match.

no teeth!

look, my baby sister has no teeth! that is why she can not eat pizza.

also, she has her own blog now. dearelisabeth.blogspot.com

mom has to type it for her, because she can not do it by herself.

us

it is fun to have a baby sister, but you have to be real quiet kind of a lot. she still sleeps a lot and shows no interest in video games. we must remedy this soon.
she did look at mr. potato head for a while today, though. it is a step in the right direction.

here is a picture of us! my best brother tshirt is still being de-stained, so you will have to look at the orange one instead. it has frogs on it!

uncanny!

my friend rhonda sent this picture of me. i thought it was elisabeth at first!

speaking of birthdays...

the day after my birthday, my baby sister was finally born! it sure took her a long time to finally decide to get out of there. she sleeps a whole lot right now, but pretty soon i am going to teach her how to play mega man.

here is a picture of her being silly. she likes to sleep like that, with her hands way up over her head and her hat pulled down over one eye. mom said i did too.

i will get a picture of the two of us together, as soon as mom washes the throw up off of my Best Brother Ever tshirt, so i can wear that. (i got sick last night, but i feel much better now.)

birthdays!

a lot of fun stuff is happening these days. for starters, i am THREE now. i think that is pretty grown up.

i had two parties. i am not sure why i did not get three parties, since i am three years old, but the two i had were pretty fun! the first one was at grandma and papa's house. i helped roll up the crescent rolls, we ate a bunch of turkey, and then we got to eat my pac man cake! mostly i am only interested in the m&ms on top.

a couple days later, we had another party at fun city pizza. this is THE place to go and have a party, in case you are looking for a good place to do that. my grandma and pappy and nany and also mom and dad and brad and britney were there. brad and britney climbed around in the tubes with me, because mom said she did not want to get stuck and have my baby sister in a tunnel. i think that would have been pretty neat, though.

here are some pictures of me blowing out candles! i am pretty good at it, as you can see.

baby sister

i hope i did not get you too excited with that title. she is not here yet, but mom and dad say it will be very soon. it all happens the day after my birthday. we are going to go to fun city pizza! i am not sure which to be more excited about. i will be three, and i think that is super old. sometimes i like to pretend i will be a baby for my birthday.

i keep trying to coax my sister out. i hug her. i kiss her. i talk to her. i put her toys and clothes under mom's shirt so she can see them. she is in mom's belly still, and man, is that belly getting big. i think i could maybe fit in there, but there is too much fun to be had on the outside. if only baby sis would realize that.

last weekend

mom and i went to visit my grandma and papa in clarksville. dad had to go to dallas, so he did not get to go with us. we went up on a mountain and looked at the tiny little trees and stuff on the ground below. the leaves were pretty.

my grandma and papa have a neat cat and dog. the cat is named garfield, and he is sometimes nice and sometimes not. he only swiped at me once, but mom said that is because i was in his face too much and being too super loud. the dog knows how to talk. do not ask me how, but she only does it when my papa is around.

here are some pictures from the mountain! one is of me and my grandma. the other is me explaining how, when donkey kong is up high, he throws barrels down on mario. grandma thinks i play too many video games.

happy halloween!

so this is kind of a weird holiday! you dress up like something and beg for candy. i can not complain, though, because i got to be pac man twice, and i got to get lots of good candies to eat.

we went to a party at the church on sunday and also to the big outside mall tonight. there was a costume contest, and nobody could beat macaroni and cheese girl. mom says you do not have to win to be the coolest, though.

here is a picture of me talking to the lady from tv for the contest. she asked lots of silly questions, like if i was pac man. i thought it was obvious!



there is another picture of me just in my costume.




the other picture is some pac mans that i drew. the one with the hat is junior pac man, and there are some little regular pac mans, and the rest are ghost monsters. i think they look neat with teeth!

sorry to keep you waiting!

it has been more than a month, i know. sorry! i have been having lots of fun.
but here are three new posts for you, and i will make some more in the next few days, because i want to show you my pac man drawings.

the other day we went to the bug fair! me and mom and jessica. we saw alive bugs and dead bugs. i prefer the alive ones, but the butterflies in the case were really pretty. there were big old beetles and fire ants and i also got to hold a worm. but my favorite things at the whole place were the bees. wow, they were neat. it looked pretty crowded in that place where they live, but the guy said they like it that way, because they stay warm. when i need to get warm, i just put on my hoodie. i think i like my way better.










that last one is me thinking about maybe being entomologist someday. that means "bug toucher" in spanish.

hotels

my grandma and pappy and nany came to visit a couple weeks ago, and they stayed at a hotel. i think hotels are the only place where you are really allowed to jump on the bed with your shoes on. i am not sure why this is. but i did not argue, because it is fun! to add to the fun, the jumping makes my new thomas shoes light up. i really am getting into it here, as you can see. my vertical has also increased several inches. i am not sure if that is because of the bed or the new shoes, but i will take it. hooray for jumping and hooray for new shoes and hooray for visitors, and hooray for rules being different at hotels.

i like those packing peanuts.

some look like the letter S, and some look like the letter E. i also went through a phase of not wanting to wear clothing. i am sort of mostly past that now. mom is happy that i do not try to take off my shirt in public all the time. only sometimes.

slides are good

the other night mom and dad and i went and bought some meat sandwiches from arbys and took them to the park. while we ate, we could hear the high school football game nearby. i think Jesus was the guy that talks. you know, "touchdown Rogers!!" and all that. mom and dad laughed a little when i said so, but it really was him.

my favorite things about parks are the slides. if it has a good slide, it is a good park. this one had two, and one of them was real big. i am not afraid to climb up all those stairs and slide down.

it is also fun to slide if you sing numa numa while you are going down. it sounds all echo-ey and good. as you can see, this is what i am doing in the yellow slide, including the dance moves.

man! it has been a good summer.

mom and dad say summer is pretty much over, even though it is still hot hot hot.

we ended the season by taking turns visiting all my grandparents. the pictures in the next two entries are from when we went to see my grandpa george in hot springs. he has long hair and a boat!

the boat

grandpa got a new boat. we went out on lake ouachita (the best lake, says mom) and had a good time. i took my life jacket off for just a minute to work on my tan, but grandpa said that is not safe, all the way around. there is skin cancer to think about, and also falling out of the boat. so we put the clothes back on and danced danced danced.

mid-america

we tried to figure out why they call it "mid-america" museum, but finally we gave up and decided we did not really care. it is a fun enough place that they can call it whatever they want, as far as i am concerned.

i roared like a lion.

i played in this place with lots of mirrors, and at one point i forgot which one was the real me and smacked into the glass with my face. it did not hurt very much. mostly it made me mad. but otherwise, the mirrors were a good time!

i also saw myself looking really weird in these other mirrors. but dad looks even weirder than me!

i touched some animal poop. this is fake poop. real poop is yucky, and we do not touch that!

M

did you ever notice that the bottom of your nose, around the holes, is like an M? trace it with your finger. it is. i was riding in the car the other day and discovered this and forgot to tell you.

oh. also, i am going to have a baby sister. they used to ask me whether i wanted a brother or a sister. i said brother. now they tell me it is a sister. when did i stop getting to choose? i am confused.

here she is! we saw her on TV.

fish are friends

hooray! so yesterday my grandma and papa came over, and they had a fish tank! we went to wal mart and bought some fish for me to have in my room. here i am with my new fish!




the orange one is nemo.

the black one in packter.

the speckledy one is copster.

i named them myself!

oh! i just realized. i should let you know that that shark in there is not real. we just put him in there to make the fish nice and peppy.
