Home in the ATL!

So glad to be in Atlanta, and in my house! So much has happened since my last post. I'll try to recap, and lots of pictures! First, there was Valentine's Day. Mom made cupcakes for my class in the hotel room. That was a challenge, but they were yummy. I received valentines from my new classmates. How sweet! I made this bag to collect them.

Later that night things got a little rowdy, so the cowboy in me had to tame things down. Namely my booster chair! It tried to run away, but I lassoed it.

There are great new restaurants here. One of my early favorites is Mellow Mushrooms. Shrooms. Parmesan on the crust. Nothin' wrong there!

So we missed the big snow storm that hit Dallas, but did get some snow here. Three snows for me this winter! That's a record for me in the 16 months I've been here. While not the 6+ inches Dallas got, there was quite a layer for me to plod through.

Good thing the snow didn't last too long, as soon enough, it was moving day! I missed most of the excitement, but I heard it was a long day for the movers. They did a great job! I love boxes, and I think they threw a few extra in there for me. Here's the moving day pizza party with the g'rents (grandparents on Mom's side).

Here are Dad and Grandpa. Looks like they are having guy time- so why wasn't I invited?? Geez!

That's okay, I'll just hang with Mom. At least there isn't a vest requirement there. (notice the empty space where the fridge should be. Hope that comes soon!)

Not only do I love the boxes and paper, there's this cool clear stuff that makes noise. Super fun.

I do my part with the unpacking. Mom and Dad unpack a box and put the items away, and I repack the box, or move the items to where I think they belong. It's a lot of fun. Sometimes I pretend I have suitcases. I throw them on my shoulder, wave "bye" to everyone, and head off.

Aunt Libby and Uncle Ben came over this past weekend. They brought tacos. Messy+yum= fun! I even got a little black bean moustache!

The best thing about being here is seeing all of the relatives so often! Mom and Dad went out Saturday night, and An-mah (my name for Granma) and Grand-Paul came to play with me. I had lots of fun.

And I went to the park with Grandma C, and this weekend I'll show Peachie and Faux Pas my new house! So many good times to be had with them. Just stay tuned!

Atlanta!

So a lot has happened since my last post. Let's see if I can recap, it's been so long! I wrote my last post when I was still in Dallas. Lots of guys came to the house and put all of my stuff in boxes! Not sure what that was about. But I did find a secret tunnel. Mom couldn't get a picture of it, cause it was so well hidden (hint- it's behind these boxes).

After they put everything in boxes, they put the boxes on a super BIG truck, then drove away. Hmm, not so sure about those guys. Then Granma came in and Gran-Paul, and they drove away with the kitties! What's going on?! Mom and I went to the airport, where Aunt Libby met us. They had my car seat, but we weren't in a car.

Away we went! A few short hours later, we were in Atlanta! When we saw Aunt Libby in the airport, I noticed something funny- she loves my fashion sense so much, she was wearing the same thing I was!

One thing I've noticed about Atlanta, there are LOTS of stairs. Which isn't a problem for me, as I've become an expert climber, going up and down. Look out below!!!

I had told Aunt Libby and Uncle Ben about the men and the boxes, and guess what? They put ME in a box!

Strange people. Since we're staying in a hotel till our new house is ready, we've had to improvise on chores. We went over to Aunt Libby and Uncle Ben to do laundry. I, of course, had to supervise Aunt Libby. A baby's work is never done. Sigh.

After all the chores were over, it was finally time for some playing. The sun accomodated, and shone just for me. Mom, Dad and I went to a park that will be near our new house, and I tested it out. Here I am leading Dad around the equipment, so he wouldn't get lost.

And here I am leading the way up the tunnel, as I've very experienced with tunnels, having had my own recently.

And of course the swings! Glad they have those here in Atlanta too. I had a lot of fun on my old swings in Dallas.

So all and all it's been a successful first week here in Atlanta. I started a new daycare, and saw all the Grandparents. I've had a little trouble adjusting and sleeping, but I'll be okay soon. Can't wait to see my new house this week!!
