46

Daddy,

Hey! I hope you had a good week! 46 more to go. I seriously can't wait! I'm hoping to be walking by then, so I can impress you with my grace. Let's hope I take after Mommy in that department and not you and Papa Callie. Soo I don't know if Mommy told you but I'm teething and let's just say I'm not a fan of this process. At least I'm getting teeth unlike Mommy. I need to start a Disneyland countdown, but to be honest with you, I don't know how to count. I guess I'll ask the Madre. Ohhh my goodness Daddy, did you hear about the mouse in our house?! I was excited at first when she told me about it because I thought she was talking about Mickey, but then I found out this mouse doesn't talk, wear clothes, or have a dog named Pluto which is real let down. I feel bad for all the other mice who are constantly being compared to Mick... that must be how others babies feel about me, just sayin. Well mister, I love and miss you like whoa and I can't wait to see you!

Love,

Daddy!

I miss you soooo big! Mommy and I had a busy week! We went to Walmart, the commissary, Starbucks like 4x, the PX, and an ice cream social! At the ice cream social, I met a potential boyfriend. Things are kinda on the rocks now because I pulled his hair. Mommy said I pulled a "Chris Brown?" I'm not sure what that pop culture reference is supposed to mean... all I know is the kid started crying like 1 week old. I think I'm too mature for him anyway. Well Daddy, I better skiddaddle, Big Brother is almost on! Love you and miss you!

Love,

Daddy-o,

Well I miss you mister! You need to come home so we can play! I'm getting pretty good at tummy time! Mommy says you would be proud. So I don't know if you noticed from the pictures.. I'm one good looking baby. I'm not trying to toot my own horn, but beep beep. Well Daddy 48 more weeks, but who's counting. I love you and can't wait to see you.

Love you like you love cake,

Dear Daddy,

It's me again. We've survived 3 weeks! Mommy started planning our Disneyland trip. The way she talks about it makes it seem like the coolest place on earth.. maybe even the happiest! She's preparing me by watching Disney movies. I like to watch them, Mommy says I'm not supposed to because I'm too young, but I don't listen to her and I watch them anyway! Ohh props to you for hiding that letter for Mommy in the Monster's Inc. case. It was a nice touch that made Mommy all goo-goo eyed. I looked at it, but it's not as interesting as my mobile. You can't compete with Pooh bear Daddy! I've been sleeping in my crib all by myself and I even slept through the night which makes Mommy super happy. I'm going to try to keep doing it, but I'm not going to make any promises. Well I better go! I love you Daddy and miss you soo big! Can't wait to go visit the House of the Mouse with you!

Love,

Button bear

Dear Daddy,

Another week without you.. not a fan. I mean I love Mommy and Perdie and all, but sometimes there is just too many girls in this house. Perdie is always trying to steal my clothes and I have to fight Mommy for the bathroom every morning. It can be a little rough. Other than that, life is good at home. Mommy and I went shopping a few times just to get out of the house. We bought pillows and a rug for the living room and a rug and some dish towels for the kitchen. The place is really starting to look better. Next week we are going to get more decorations for the living room. I'll have Mommy post some pictures when she has time. Well I need to go I'm missing one of my soap operas.. maybe you've heard of it Mickey Mouse Clubhouse? I love and miss you Daddy! 2 weeks down.

Love,

Button

Dear Daddy,
We made it a whole week without you and it wasn't easy. Mommy had a really tough time, but Perdie and I came together as a team to try to cheer Mommy up. I think we did okay because she did smile a lot, but sometimes those smiles turned into a few tears. She's doing a really good job of taking care of us. Ohh guess what.. I'm a size 2 diaper. Yup, that's right I weigh 15 lbs. according to the scale Aunt Becky bought. I am still fitting into 0-3 clothes though which makes Mommy happy. Well I love you Daddy and I can't wait till we can all cuddle in your and Mommy's bed again! Stay safe and take care of Minnie!
Love,
Cinderellie
