Many Visitors and New Toys

On Monday Daddy and I picked out some flowers to give Mommy for Valentine's Day. She really liked them. We were going to take a picture, but we forgot. We did get some pictures of me up late. Daddy took me to look out the window one night this week because I woke up screaming. Of course, you can't see much outside at 11:00 PM, so I decided to look at Duke instead.

On Friday, Mommy and I went to Grandpa Al and Grandma Wynne's house in the afternoon, and then Daddy came over when he was done with work. I stayed there, and Mommy and Daddy went to have a weekend by themselves and watch Aunite Kara and Uncle Josh's puppies.

While I was at Grandma and Grandpa's, I had a lot of visitors. Grandma Gail came to seem me more than once, and both Great-grandma Darlene and Great-grandma Dorothy came to see me. And Janice and Jerry and David and Dan and Deb and Chris and Diane and Milton and...and I think that's all.

On Sunday afternoon, Daddy came back - and he brought me some toys! He brought me a dump truck and a blue race car and a teething ring and some plastic cups for me to drink out of. I love my new toys!

This is my new dump truck!

That was the week. Thanks for reading. Take care, everyone!
