Being Lady Like

I arrived in Florida yesterday, today, last night, this morning. I don't know. It was still dark out and since I can't tell time I have no idea. I just know that I got on a plane last night, fell asleep, woke up and it was still dark. So that didn't change but it did get much much warmer. Which makes me wonder, what took us so long to make this trip? Snow. Slush. Cold. More cold. More snow. A lot more snow. How much of that did I really need to experience? Well the point is I'm here with my Nana Joan and am quite happy. Oh and just to make sure I was all set for the trip, mommy took me out for a little pampering.

Splish Splash

Why can't I just wear my swimsuit all the time? I mean, hello, it's cute. It's also super comfortable. Plus it seems like whenever mama or dada put me in it, we go swimming. Maybe if I just got up one morning and put it on myself it would guarantee a swimming activity that day. I'd like that.


Did some swimming down in Yorktown with Nana Mary.


We really had fun out there and my cousin Colin came too. He's not quite at my level yet but then again, I'm not exactly Janet Evans. Still waiting for dada to teach me the flip turn. Might be waiting a while on that one.


And then there's always the swimming here in Brooklyn. But it's not as much swimming as it is playing around with water. You've got water coming out of this fountain, water falling down these rocks, water spraying at you from this place and that. If mama and dada would just bring a washcloth to the playground next time we could avoid the whole nighttime bathtime struggle. I wonder if they read this.


Speaking of nighttime struggle, isn't going to bed the worst? I always wonder what happens when mama and dada close the door after they put me in my crib. Do they go straight to bed too? If I'm going to sleep, they should have to go to sleep too. Do my toys go to sleep? I know my stuffed animals like to fall asleep with me.


Looking forward to my next beach visit in LAUREN'S WORLD!

Not My Brother

I keep hearing Landen's name on the television but when I look up, it's not him.


Wondering if this is my first crush in LAUREN'S WORLD!

My Turn

Dada took me to the doctor. When he said I could have a turn I thought this is what he meant. I should have held out a little longer. Waiting for my turn to give daddy a shot in LAUREN'S WORLD!

Time Is On My Side

It won't be long before my first day of school. Then before you know it, I'll be walking across the stage getting my diploma. And then, three exciting years later I'll call home from State College to tell mama and dada I'm graduating early.


So, let's just make the most of this time while we have it. Got it, Landen?


Got it, Elmo?


Got it, dada?


Got it, mama?


Got it, Brooklyn? Being thankful I'm less than two years old in LAUREN'S WORLD!

Not Waiting Until Next Year

I heard that pitchers and catchers report in less than two weeks. Put me in coach . . . oh you know the rest. Let me tell you, I had to suffer through a disappointing year in my first year of being a Cubs fan. There is NO WAY I can go through that again. I mean two years of disappointment? I just couldn't imagine. So to spare myself and the other Cubs fans out there another year of pain (surely it won't last, right?) I have decided to make myself eligible to play. I've got the whole throwing thing down and as someone once said, that's a third of the game. Next, I know how to catch, I just haven't done it yet.



So that's two thirds. Last, I need to figure out hitting. No problem. I'm sure there are plenty of Cubs players who can teach me hitting. Right?


Booking my tickets to Mesa right now in LAUREN'S WORLD!

Celebrity Doppelganger

Long word? May be trouble for some, but not me. What? You didn't hear me say it? Well of course not. But I'm saying it in my head. I say tons of things in my head. You think just because I don't talk means I don't know the words? Hmm, well there's a whole other post for another day.

Who do I look like? That's what this is all about. Who do you look like? I wish I looked like Elmo but then that might get a little itchy. So who do I look like? It didn't take me long to figure out who I look like. I mean I see this person every day! No, no, no, I'm not rubbing elbows with the upper echelons of society (oh yeah, I can type the big words too). This is a different kind of celebrity. Wanna see?


What, you think celebrities only appear on the screen or after Elmo on TV? My daddy is the most famous celebrity I know. Lookin' like dada in LAUREN'S WORLD!
