Back to School - Back to Blogging

Well, it's more the neighborhood is back to school. We and lots of guests are back to our own homes. So, now we should be able to blog and catch back up. You'll see what I mean as the August blogs show up. So, anyway anything before this entry is before July 4th. Otherwise you may have to look back and forth through the coming blogs. I think I'll do August and then go back for July. The August blogs will be from the scrapbooks we just finished and rather easy to do. thanks. e

July 4th - Erynn Declares Independence

here's my latest and greatest news, i don't throw up all the time anymore. my tummy doesn't have to get rid of my food anymore. it's safe to love and cuddle me and play with me. i won't get your clothes messy anymore.

now, i still don't like to swallow food and everything makes my mouth feel bad. and, i do still have a "strong gag reflex" but i only do a little to fix my problem instead of emptying my whole tummy. I am working on lots of eating skills but its really, really, really, really hard to like food when i keeps on making my mouth feel bad.

so, please be very careful if i ask you for food and you know its going to be a problem for me. i don't know all of this stuff, so i might get cranky with you. here's a hint - - - give me choc-lick. i love choc-lick. i can always lick and melt choc-lick. just don't give me too much. a little goes a long way.

we can always play ball together. i love to throw and catch and kick and roll and chase and bounce and hold balls of all sizes and colors.

here's a hint for you - be careful with very big balls, you can bounce right off the sides of them. and then you get hurt and you will need your daddy and your blankie to feel better. you could get a sore neck and that is not good.

anyway, happy 4th of july !!!

Jul 3 - Notes to Other Toddlers

hey, what's up?

or should i say upside-down?

i just can't help myself. i love to hang. (Note to other toddlers: when mommy's talking, i can usually get upside down for a long stretch of time.) do you know what Aunt Teri is talking about ? green, blue, in the lines ? i just color and color some more. did you know Aunt Teri is a professional colorer ? yes, and she loves Winnie the Pooh. (note to other toddlers: i really recommend having a lot of toys out when adults get together to talk and look at you.) (cash register, racing balls, elmo, car, colors, mr. potato head, penguins)

sometimes you need help with the markers and sometimes you don't. i did it. do you like my flog and my peetatoes and tinkabell ? (note to other toddlers: always keep the blankey close to you. don't let them fold it up and put it away. you need your blankey.)

anywho, big day tommorrow, lots of cameras and playing outside.

(note to other toddlers: smile and giggle as much as you can without getting sick. they love it.)

smile at you later.

Jun 30 - Am I Goldilocks in CA?

there are many ways to cool down on a hot summer day. one way is to stay inside and read a book in somebodyelse's crib.

but, sometimes that doesn't work. so, then you try wearing a ponytail in somebodyelse's chair.

but, sometimes that doesn't work. so, then you try climbing somebodyelse's steps.

but, sometimes that doesn't work. so, then you try going down somebodyelse's slide.

that always works.

Jun 29 - On the Road Again - Season 2

original text

translation

yep, i going to see gg.

(just dropping you a note to let you know i am off to visit grandma gwen in california.)

erynn ride mommy next to you. daddy drive.

(mommy and i will be sitting in the backseat playing games, singing, coloring, watching movies, holding hands and napping while daddy drives the car.)

fresh fry, ice cream (yelling)

(although we are trying to be a more fit, focused and faithful family this summer, i am confident we will stop for some french fries and also for some ice cream. the only two food items i will actually put in my mouth by my own demand and hand.)

diaper check then bouncy ball

(i have found it best to listen to mommy and daddy early when they mention a diaper check. i am much happier when i have on a fresh diaper and am playing with my ball. don't you agree. here i am at my first rest area.)

diaper check then doodle then little bear

(yes, i will allow another diaper check because i will then be able to doodle afterward. and, if i am a very nice little girl, we will watch little bear movies as soon as we get back in the car. here i am doodling with daddy at my second rest area.)

baa? baa?
