Uncle Nathan, Cousin Aby, Grand’Mary and & Grandpa Dave all came for a visit this past week. I had a great time showing Cousin Aby the ropes of Middleton/Madison.

I took her to the zoo to ride the famous carousel…

at first she wasn’t sure, but by the end she loved it and did not want to get off!

I picked up on Uncle Nathan’s tricks really quickly…

and made sure Aby always went first–she is more used to it!

I shared my instruments with everyone in an amazing night of ‘family band’.

I even shared my guitar and some of my special Rock-n-Roll moves…

with “the tall girl” (Betty)…

and Cousin Aby! They were both great ROCK STARS!

I also let Cousin Aby borrow my toys…

and took her to my favorite park.

I think the park was making Mama a little bit crazy…

she even made Aby and I go down the slide together…and we got stuck half-way!

Doesn’t she look like fun?

I also took Cousin Aby to the gym pool with me. I think she had a kick-butt time!

She even got to watch me during part of my swim lesson–I floated on my back all by myself for the first time!

I couldn’t have asked for a better playmate…

Thank you for coming to visit me–I had the best week ever!

Aunt Robyn and I like to practice our Yoga poses–this one is called Tree pose.

We came to the airport to pick up Grand’Mary and Grandpa Dave, but there doesn’t seem to be anyone around.

Uh-oh…their plane has been delayed!

There’s no need to worry…I’m a very calm and obedient 3 year old! (ha ha ha ha ha)

We’ve been very busy since the Grandparents arrived. We even concocted home-made tattoo paint. Grand’Mary painted a butterfly on one hand…

and Mama painted KISS on the other. (The symbol is the Egyptian symbol that Vinnie used when he was in the band.)

Ta-da! I’ve been showing Grandma and Grandpa all of my park tricks. It was great (except for the 45 mph wind gusts and the eventual downpour that soaked us all in less than 5 seconds).

Grand’Mary even had a special surprise in her suitcase…

a Spiderman mask!!! (It completes me!)

We took Grandma and Grandpa down to the Memorial Union Terrace for some live music…and I had a lady tell me I should model for Abercrombie & Fitch. She must have been crazy–I’m no prep–I’m a rocker!

Ahhh…Brrr…

This is more like it. Yes, Aunt Robyn and Judy–I have a rock in my hand!!!

While Mama and Grand’Mary spent some time take pictures in the UW Arboretum, Papa took me to see my first “theater” movie ever. It was great. (ps. We saw Kung Fu Panda)

On Sunday someone else from my family arrived…along with her Papa, but I’m not going to say who…you’ll have to make sure you come back next week! See you then!
