Laurelbug Lets Loose: August 2010

I realize this is really late as I'm now almost 30 months old which, if you do the complex math, is 2 and a half YEARS. But we'll back track and I'll take you back 2 months (which in toddler time is like 2 years) to July. We spent the 4th in Oriental with my grandparents and all my cousins. It was super fun and I partied until the wee hours of the night. THEN I woke up SUPER early and partied all over again. I think it was a party attended by...well...one, but it was still a blast. That weekend we watched the parade for the famous Croker festival. What? You've never heard of it? Weird. It's mostly either the very old or the very young sitting on the back of convertible cars, but they throw candy to you and I got Elmo painted on my face, so I was happy.

This month also marked my first haircut. It was just a bang trim really because Mommy doesn't want to cut off my long, luscious curls. It's actually more of just a curl, no "s", but Mommy loves it and isn't ready to let go, so I humor her. I loooooove getting my haircut. They pamper you like a pretty princess and then at the end they give you a sucker! What could be better? Nothing. Unless you got to watch Wizard of Oz WHILE they cut your hair. That would be better and I'm pretty sure you'd only get me out of that chair with the jaws of life.

I also went to my friend Ava's princess party which was ah-MAZ-ing. That MIGHT actually be better than just a haircut. They do your hair AND nails AND make-up AND you eat cake, all while wearing a princess dress. I was in heaven. And everyone says what a good client I am. I sit perfectly still and don't move a muscle so as not to mess up any of the artistry at work.

I feel I should tell you a little about my interests and milestones up to now. After all, Mommy says one day I will be glad I can look back on this and read all about how smart and awesome I was as a toddler. So my interests would include: Wizard of Oz, Dorothy, ruby slippers, and Wizard of Oz...oh and toss in a little Shrek and Madeline and all is right with my world. AND I can't believe I almost forgot, but I'm totes potty trained. Well maybe not TOTES but I only pee pee in the potty which is a big deal (I'm still working on the OTHER big deal). Really it was easy. Mommy just threw me in some big girl pants one day and that was it! I never looked back and I hardly ever have an accident. I know, I'm awesome.

Thanks for reading and I hope you like my pics!

Oh yeah, and mommy is having a baby and it's a baby brother and that's all I'm saying about THAT.
