When You Live in NC....

There are a couple of things you need to learn....

1) You need to love Barbeque...Mommy says it is different from where she grew up, but it is okay.

2) You need to love college basketball....Daddy likes this and we watch games all the time.

3) And, you need to learn how to do this.....

I got my first pair of golf clubs! LOL yeah I know cool right. I was having a good time swinging that club around. Daddy was trying to show me how to putt. But I had more fun just whacking the ball!

We started inside and then decided to go outside to play, because it was so nice out!! Yeah here I am pulling my clubs in my "bag"...

Oh and we were flying a kite this weekend!!! Daddy got me a kite and we were running up and down the street to try to make it fly and we did!! It was really high! Mommy got some great video. I hope she can figure this video thing out because it really is cool to see.

Here is me and Mommy on the couch. She said she hadn't taken a picture like this in a while and wanted to. Yeah you can see my face, I'm not really a fan of these pictures LOL But I put it up here to make her happy.. Love you Mommy!

So Update on My Stats....

Went to the doctor yesterday....yeah I got another shot...whatever, those are old news these days.

So I am weighing in at 26 lbs and 1oz and 32 3/4 inches....but if you add in the hair I am probably 34 inches tall!!!! Ohhh I crack myself up.

Everything is good. I have a sinus infection so they are giving me some medicine, but other than that I am good. And Mommy keeps saying that the weather this weekend is going to be awesome!! So lots of playing outside! We were getting ready last weekend cleaning up the back yard. Check it out. I was helping Mommy.

Mommy says i look just like Daddy in this picture, when he lets his hair grow. LOL

Oh and here I am earlier that morning hanging at the breakfast table with Mommy and Daddy. I really just feel more comfortable putting my feet up... It is very relaxing.... ;)

Okay gotta run....more to come later.

So...Why Do They Keep Saying "Terrible Two"

Seriously I don't know if I get what they are talking about. I think I am a GREAT toddler! And so does Mommy and Daddy and the rest of the family, but every once in a while I hear them say "Oh, here come the terrible twos" They usually say it when I get mad, but HELLO who WOULDN'T get mad?! I mean, if I want to walk in the store instead of the sitting in the boring cart, why can't I? Mommy and Daddy walk all the time, why is it so different for me? They pick up things off the shelves and put them in the cart. I can do that too! (And I usually do, Mommy lets me help when I get really fussy about having to ride in the cart.)

So what if I don't want to take a bath right the second Mommy says we have to take a bath. I was busy putting my trucks away.......don't you ALWAYS ask me to put my trucks away Mommy? I am just doing my job. And seriously, if I am NOT hungry, why try to feed me? I tell you "No" when you ask if I am hungry or want to eat. But you still try anyway. I mean yeah I always end up eating my food because I HAVE TO. And so what if I will eat cookie after cookie after cookie, they taste WAAAAAAAAAY better then my regular food. Who wouldn't want to eat them.

You know, I like things the way I like them, if I am playing with my toys and someone else wants to play with it, why do I have to let them? I clearly tell them it is "mine" just so we know what is what. You know if Mommy wants to get on the lap top when Daddy is on it, she waits until HE is finished. Why can't people wait until I am done with my toys before I have to give them up?

Look, I try to be calm and wait, but if I need to tell you something, I am going to call you over and over and over again until you listen to me or at least say "Yes, Adrian". That is just the way it is. Mommy tells me I need to wait if she is talking to Daddy, but seriously 'come on. I know you are going to stop what you are doing and help me out. I just know it!!!

Oh hold on a second, Mommy asked me if she can put something on here. She says she wants everyone to read it.

Adrian: I want everyone to know that you are a wonderful, smart, personality filled little man. You are a blessing and the best thing to ever happen to your Daddy and I. We love you love you love you! I know you think you are grown and we have acknowledged that you have a mind of your own, but until you can wipe your own little culito you will be our baby, you will have to share your toys, stay in the cart (there are too many people in the store sometimes) and eat when we tell you. Don't try to grow up too fast! Love you Chooch

Awwww Mommy, thanks.

Atlantic City!

Wow I had such a good time hanging out with my cousins!!! We went to this place called Atlantic Palace in Atlantic City. Mommy booked 4 rooms for the family and I got to see my Pop-Pop, Nino and Lauren, my Titi Kenia, and Tio Samuel, my Tio Alex, and my cousins Jazlyn, Chelo and Elihu. It was AWESOME!

We had a cool room to hang out in, it was almost like being home and we went out shopping to the outlets! Yeah I think I enjoy this a lot more than Mommy and Daddy. I mean I get to explore and touch all these new things and play hide and seek with Mommy and Daddy behind shelves and racks of clothes. Oh man and we went in to the Disney store and there were like 3 balls that I was playing with and bouncing around!! It was really kind of funny because Mommy kept chasing after them. And then all of a sudden, they disappeared! Yeah, I don't know what happened, but it was okay I was into everything else. But let me tell you it was COLD!!! There was snow on the ground and it was snowing when we were walking outside. Mommy, Titi Chell and Daddy had me bundled up real tight to keep me nice and warm.

Well that night I got to hang out just with Titi Chell because Mommy and Daddy went to get something to eat. That was fun! But I was really tired and wasn't feeling too good, so Titi Chell got me all ready for bed, put Vicks on my chest, gave me a little medicine, gave me my treatment and I KNOCKED OUT! she took really good care of me. I love my "Chell". Yeah the next day Mommy stayed in with me, while everyone else went to hang out. She didn't want me out in the cold. But it was nice to just hang out with Mommy for a bit.

Me and my nebulizer...."Don't worry Mommy, I got this!"

Well, by that time all my cousins had shown up and we went to hang out in the game room. I played pool and drove a race car. I loved going down the elevator! My Pop-Pop was there and I got great big hugs and kisses from him! I love all of my family. Here I am giving Nino "un fuerte".

Down the elevator with my cousins! I wouldn't turn around Elihu was...helping...me out

We left on Monday and yes, it was a long drive, but I did pretty good, according to Mommy. We went to this place called a diner! Mommy said diners are "very New Jersey". We had never been to one in Raleigh. So that was cool. Here are some pics and videos of our fun in New Jersey!

Chillin' with Titi Chell, checking out the view!!!

Playing with my Daddy by the window

This is how I roll.....Flip video in hand and pillow pet by my side.

On the ride home, I fell asleep with my hand in my snack cup. Of course Mommy took a picture before she let Titi take my hand out.

Here is a video of me and Lauren playing with my and Pop-Pop's glasses. She is funny! She thinks I am a little gross when I have a runny nose and stuff, but I know she still loves me!

Okay the video is not uploading! Something is wrong, but I promised Lauren I would update my blog, so here is the update and I will put the video up later!

Recovering From My Weekend in Charlotte...

I know it has been a while, but we have been moving and grooving! HAHA! I got to spend time with my Titi Chell and Mike and Dunkin and Chili. You see we went to Charlotte and stayed in this cool hotel the Westin. We were there because Daddy had a conference and then there was going to be a big party, but it was only for adults. That is why I got a chance to go hang out with Titi Chell!! We got to Charlotte on Friday night and of course I had to explore every little inch of that room, hiding in the closet, putting my shoes away in the closet, and sitting on the big chair. The next morning Daddy went to his conference and Mommy and me went to Titi Chell's.

I was hanging out with Mommy, Mike and Titi Chell and watching the dogs. It was cool. Then Mommy left to go get ready for her party and we had our own party!! She gave me this picture of her and Daddy at the party.

Well actually, I was so tired from all the excitement in the morning that I fell asleep with Mike on the couch. I was tired man!! He thought it was funny that I sleep with my butt in the air and took this picture...

When I woke up Mike had some of his family there, so I got to meet some new people, which is always fun.

Then we had dinner, and Titi gave me a bath and we were hanging out and playing.

Than I had some milk and watched some TV and I fell asleep on the couch......KNOCKED OUT

and then get this...... Titi WOKE ME UP!!!

I was like, "come' on man!" but she told me that Mommy wanted me to sleep at the hotel and I had a breakfast to go to in the morning to meet Daddy's friends from work. Well, I have to do what Mommy says. So, we went back to the hotel. I stayed up for a little bit, but then fell asleep and didn't wake up until the next morning when I saw Mommy and Daddy! I had missed Daddy, I hadn't seen him since the early morning the day before when he went to his conference. I think he missed me too....he was giving me big hugs and kisses!

After breakfast, where I met Daddy's BIG boss we went back to Titi Chell's. Of course after running around the entire lobby and making Mommy chase me....ohhhhh that is always so much fun! But I had such a good time!

Oh and this weekend we are going to New Jersey AGAIN!! But we are going to some place called Atlantic City. Daddy wanted to go celebrate his birthday there. And Titi Chell is coming and I get to see Nino and Lauren and my POP POP! and Uncle Joey and Titi Kenia, and Tio Alex, and some of my cousins!!! Oh I can't wait. Hopefully we will get some good pictures to share on my first trip to Atlantic City! Mommy said Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop used to go there all the time. And when they were little they would go to the beach there. Maybe when it is warm we can go back to go to the beach! I love the waves and water!!!

At the Chinese Buffet

Well we went out to dinner last week, I think. I really don't keep track of the days. I just really know when we hit the weekend because Mommy and Daddy are home and when they go to work I have to go to Mari's house. So anyway we went to the Chinese buffet place. It was cool. I still only like the food I like. It has to be smooooooooth, but I have gotten into eating cookies and cereal now and some other stuff. I am just taking my time.

Well we were there, just me, Mommy and Daddy and they had gone one at a time to get some food so someone was there to keep me company. They were eating, I was playing with my cars. And we were just talking and then I was messing with some fried rice that Mommy gave me with a spoon. Well then this lady comes by and starts picking up the plates. So I am watching her and she says something to Mommy and then takes her plate. So I tried to give her my plate! Mommy started laughing and thought it was too funny. She took a picture, but Blogger won't let me put it up.

Well then Daddy came back with the most wonderful discovery EVER!!!! He put a little plate in front of me with a spoon and told me to eat it. I was a little skeptical at first, but after that first bite. Who would have thought CHOCOLATE PUDDING was soooooooooooo good.

Yeah of course my Mommy took a video. She tries to get weirdest things recorded. It is kind of long, but you can see how much I like it!!! Yes, and I was singing the song that was playing in the background.

Okay gots to go! Hey Daddy's birthday is on Sunday. We are having a little party on Saturday night! He is turning 40....is that old??

Okay seriously gotta go.

It Is 2011!!! A Corona New Year's Eve

Oh wow!!! It is 2011. We went to my Tio Junior's house to be with the family, well first we went to Marilou and Romeo's house, that is my baby sitter and we saw Ashley and Ronnie! That was cool because they were on vacation and I hadn't seen them in a long time. After that, we went to Tio house. I was a little tired, but then got into it. I was running around and playing with the other kids. I had a good time. AND Mommy and Daddy let me stay up really late again!!



Yeah, but I missed that whole ball drop thing. Mommy said I fell asleep right before midnight! It's okay, everyone came and gave me kisses anyway. Well after that, that is when all the craziness started. ALWAYS!! Always after I fall asleep they start doing all this crazy stuff. Mommy too the video so I could see what was going on.



Well they grabbed the instruments and started singing old songs and just being too crazy for ADULTS! Yes, and I slept through the whole thing! I know I know, but when you are a Corona you need to learn to sleep through things...if you want to get ANY sleep. LOL



Here is the link to A Corona New Year's Eve! It is long but gets kind of funny! I think my Daddy is the silliest of them all! That is why I love him. Mommy was the one taking the video.



Oh and here is a video of me sending a special message to Titi Chell. She couldn't get it on her phone so she asked me to put it on my blog. Just for you Titi, here you go!!
