Blog header update

I got a lot of feedback that folks didn't like my last blog header...

So in getting ready for the New Year, I worked really hard creating a new blog header.

What do you think?

Oh what fun I had!

HI All,

Well, we were unable to make it to Wisconsin for Christmas to see my family there. The weather was just too bad. So now we are planning on going next weekend.

Instead, we went to Uncle Todd's on Christmas Eve & Auntie Jan's on Christmas Day. I ran around & had a ton of fun.

But the best was all the good stuff Santa left for me when I woke up on Christmas Morning.

He & the Elf left a tree in our porch plus a bunch of fun presents. My favorites are the kitchen & the farm. I was so excited, I whispered "WOW" over & over.

Hugs and Kisses,
AWN

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2009

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL OF US.

See how much I've changed from last year ...

Here is a new video for you all to enjoy.

Love you - AWN

You should see the other guy...

Today it was a bookshelf I fell into...

Can you say goose egg?

Today I was being silly at day care running and playing & I tripped on a block & fell into a chair. I got a big bruise & goose egg on my forehead.

But did I let that stop me from acting like a maniac? NOOOO...

New Toys

I sure have been enjoying my new toys Santa left for me.

I'm getting pretty good at the puzzle & I figured out if I stand on it - I can the sound effects work.


The tractor & farm set is a lot of fun too - I think the cow & piggies are my favorite animals & I like to keep them in the pen.

Thank you so much!

Love, Anders

A Special Visit

Hi All, tonight we had a special visitor stop by.

We planned to have dinner with my Aunties, Uncles & Cousins... but then someone else stopped by.

It was Santa! It was pretty exciting. He asked us what we wanted for Christmas & reminded us all to be good.

Thanks for the presents Santa! I will try to behave.

Love, AWN

Elf on the Shelf

Hi All, I've been having a lot of fun over the past few days playing with the Elf on the Shelf.

Every morning he is hiding somewhere new for me to find him. Sometimes I can spot him right away. Sometimes I have to look really really hard.

I'm always really excited to see him!

3 butts in the window

Hey everyone,


Tonight I met up with my friends Emmitt & Elsie for the Holidazzle Parade. We got to watch it from inside of Mommy's work.

Love ya, Anders

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME

Hi all,


Today I was at Back-up day care. Mom dropped me off & the teacher said we would be doing a fun "body art" project. I'm sure she thought we would be getting tattoo's or something like that... BUT NOOOOO.

I absolutely loved this art project - especially the Glitter!

Notice the paint on the wall behind me? I got paint on the carpet too.

Picasso - Here I come!

Thanksgiving weekend fun

HI All,

I had so much fun over Thanksgiving weekend, I thought I would post a few photos.

Love, AWN

Happy Turkey Day & Ear Update

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow.

I will be at Auntie Jan's & will get to see all my cousins - I can't wait!!!

Today I went to the ear specialist to see what is going on with my right ear. The Doctor tried to get out the wax build up & actually pulled the tube right out!

He said we should monitor this ear & if I start getting ear infections again, I will need to get the tubed replaced. But overall, my ears looked good!

Here is a video clip of how I help around the house - Enjoy!

Love Anders

Eatin' Goldfish Crackers

Hi everyone, Hope you are all doing well.

Yesterday while having a snack, I thought it might be fun to try something new. Typically, I eat Goldfish crackers with my fingers (as most kids do). But today, I tried to eat them with a spoon. And not just any spoon, but a big serving spoon. It took a few tries, but I finally got it in my mouth.

Today I used Mrs. Potato Head's purse as a spoon. I'm so resourceful!

Tonight Grandpa is coming over for dinner, I can't wait to see him. I'm working on saying "Grandpa" but for right now I'm calling him "bah ba".

Love, Anders

My New Trucks

Thank you to Calvin for my fun new truck collection - I really enjoy playing with them.

They all have a special parking place.

They are not however a ride of toy ( I tried, but it didn't quite work out).

Just a good sturdy trucks for a boy like me!

Quick Update

Hi All,

Just a quick update that my lower left cuspid just broke thru today... Maybe that's why I've been crabby, clingy & having on & off mild fevers.

Will post more soon, including some of my new words.

Love you!
AWN

Blanket Ride

These are from a few weeks ago when Grandma & Grandpa visited.
