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!

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

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...)

Feeding My Friends...

I have a pack of friends I carry around everywhere. Here I am feeding them some milk in my booster chair...

(If you're speakers are on you can hear me calling them by name.)

Two Year Well Check...

This past week I went in for my 2 year old check up. I didn't need any immunizations (thankfully, as I've had 3 flu shots in the last 5 weeks). However, I REALLY did not like being examined!

Here I am waiting to see Dr. S:
