Another Outfit of my Choosing...

This past week, Mom and Dad had me all dressed up in a Christmas outfit but I discovered this shirt when Mom was cleaning out my closet (she said something about being in nesting mode).

I insisted on wearing it all day and it's been a staple to my clothing attire since.

Two of my favorite characters - Elmo and "Cookie" - we were a bit concerned that "Cookie" is eating a banana and not a cookie!

My two friends who go EVERYWHERE with me - can you see why I love my shirt so?

Proudly wearing my shirt.

Do you have a favorite shirt?

Christmas Morning...

Despite me being a not-so-great sleeper this year (Mom and Dad say that's an understatement), I must have been a good enough kid to merit a visit from Santa. Maybe being potty trained evens things out?

What a sight I woke up to...

Dinosaurs, Cookie Monster, Cozy Coupe, and an Elmo balloon - WOW!!!

You might recall that I originally asked Santa for "a balloon" - Aunt JT brought one to me last night. I thought she was Santa! However, this morning I found another one by the tree!

Kisses for Dad - I know Santa brought the gifts but I had to give someone a thank you kiss - and it just seemed fitting that it would be Dad!

Playing with some of my new toys.

Is this T Rex cool or what?!? From Aunt Shelley and Uncle Rich. He got some kisses too!

Enjoying watching my new Sesame Street videos.

Merry Christmas - I hope Santa was good to you too!

Play Time...

A couple photos from my recent play time with Joseph - his mom and dad had a date night and he came to hang out with me.

We had a grand time playing with the space station and eating fish crackers.

It's the simple things in life, don't you think?

Friday Fashion...D-I-N-O

You would think with my nickname "T Rex" that I would really be into dinosaurs. Well, it hasn't been until recently that I've become quite enamored with dinosaurs. Combine that with letters and a perfect match in my opinion!

Hence, my fashion statement for this week.

Also note, my shoes are dinosaurs as well!

Tigger...

Dad found my super-cool easel in the background at a garage sale - after he cleaned it up, it's totally awesome...

Lounging...

Santa Photo 2009...

This year's Santa photo...

Mom and Dad were quite surprised that I did not cry at the sight of a strange man who put his arm around me, but I did great.

In fact, when he asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I replied, "A balloon." He asked if that was all I wanted (as the kids before me were on their second visit to ask for yet more toys) but I replied again, "A balloon". I guess I have my heart set on a balloon this Christmas!

The photo is not too bad for an impromptu visit to see Santa. Maybe that's why it went so well!

Here is my Santa photo from last year...

What did you ask Santa for this year?

(Make sure you check out Mom's poll on her blog - she checking to see whether you think Santa leaves gifts for moms and dads, too. There might even be a giveaway involved...)
