I went on my first vacation on July 5, 2002. I was soo excited. Mom kept telling me I would get to see my Aunt Feather. I could not wait. I was sooo good on the plane trip. Momma got a picture of me guarding the lugage at the airport. She also brought along my taggie for me to play with. Flying was neat. I liked that. Except after the first plane trip it was a bit bumpy so I got sick. I had an upset tummy the rest of the day and the rest of the week.. Mommy is not sure if I had a stomach bug or the change in climate and altitude. I ended up throwing up the rest of the day. But I was still excited to get to see Aunt Feather. She calls me Bray Bray. I like her a whole lot. I even like her cat, Mr. Kitty. He was scared of me though. Not sure why...I like to grab his tail as he walks past.
Mommy and Nonna and Aunt Feather decided on Saturday that I was well enough to go to Estes Park. Little did they know. My tummy still was not feeling good. And I hated going up the moutains. It made my ears pop. I creid and cried. Mommy gave me a bottle but it just made my stomach even more upset. But Mommy did make sure that my eyes and face were protected from the sun. She put me in that silly hat with these silly glasses. I left them on at first. But, I fooled them, I figured out how to take them off and I found out they taste really good in my mouth.
We had a good time in Estes park. It is really pretty, and it was kinda cool. I took pictures with Momma, and then with Nonna, PawPaw, Aunt Feather and Uncle Mike, her boyfriend. I like him. He is nice. But I am not to sure about men. I do not want them to take me from my Mommy. But Mommy got me a shirt from Estes Park. It is just a bit to big. Mommy said I could wear it next year.
On Sunday Mommy and Nonna said I was to sick to go anywhere, so we stayed at home. Which was fine with me. I was getting a sore throat too. But all I did was cough. I made Nonna cough too. I thought that was sooo funny. I like it when she coughs. She makes a funny sound. I also figured out when I say Momma I get all these cheers. And as a bonus I get Mommas complete attention. She thought I was soooo smart because I said Momma. I can also say GaGa and BaBa. I think I am learning to say ByeBye too. Not sure about that word though. Paw Paw wants me to say his name, and he keeps pestering me to do it, so I went ahead and said it the other day. Maybe now he will leave me alone. I also scoot backwards on my butt. This made Nonna laugh so hard. I think Momma kinda got a little bit upset, but she picked me up and hugged me. She said I looked cute with food all over me, and that as long as I did not get it on Aunt Feathers carpet I was fine. So now I scott backwards when I want to make people laugh. Otherwise when I cry they come running.
I was fussing on Wednseday and Aunt Feather figured Iw as tired. I was. So she put me in bed with her. There was this sily smooth nite gown with cool colors. And I was rubbing my fingers on it, and poof, it ended up in my mouth. I liked sucking on it. Momma thought it was cute. Who needs a blanket when you have Aunt Feathers nite gown. |
