Way Late on my 22 Month Update
Yeah, Mama sucks and is way behind on computer stuff. Better catch you all up, huh? Well, on Aug. 28th the packers arrived and packed up all our stuff. Then me and Mom had to live in a house full of boxes for 5 days until the moving truck came on Sept. 2nd and hauled away all our junk. Next, it was off to our friends the Dunn's house where we stayed for 4 nights while Mommy finished up her dissertation stuff and such. It was really fun because Lexi and I had a blast playing! I miss her bunches. Before we left town, our friends Liz and Gabby threw us a goodbye party (see the post below) that was so much fun! A bunch of my little friends came including Lexi, Lilly, Iz, Claire, Eli, Joseph, Khary, Khalil, Valerie, Charlotte, Louise, Jacob, Merani, Zoe, Kieran, London, and Linc. I already miss everyone and our playgroups and such. Mommy is so boring and I haven't made any new friends yet. I have played with other kids at the playgrounds up here but most of them have been older than me. I think big kids are cool!
Anyway, after leaving KC on Sept. 6th, we drove up to Omaha and stayed over night with my Great Aunt Jeanne. I had fun visiting with her and my cousins David and Debbie and Steve. I played on Debbie's swingset and with her kitties! Aunt Jeanne's kitties were pretty fun, too. Well, Sept. 8th we finally took off for EGF and drove the 10 hours up there in one shot. Mommy's junky car made it all the way no problem despite doubts from lots of people. Ha ha!
It was so nice to see Dada again and roughhouse with him! I missed him! We settled into the apartment with Daddy, but I wish the rents would let me run outside more! They won't let me go out on the balcony by myself since its 2 stories up. Since we aren't on the ground floor, I've gotten practice at walking up stairs unassisted. At first, I thought I couldn't do it but Mommy had not doubts I could. She knew I only needed practice since I wasn't used to it being our old house was a ranch style. Anyway, I learned to hold onto the handrail for support and I say "Step" every time I take a step:)
I've come up with lots of new words in the last month, too many to list. But my current favorites are "eat" and "water" (for drinking and to take a bath) and "car." I also have some sentences like "I sit" and "I step." Mommy still wished my enunciation would get better so she could understand my Nicky Chinese, or as Matt calls it, Chinglish. I get frustrated when she can't understand what I'm trying to say. And when I want to do things myself and she won't let me, that really gets me angry! I LOVE to play clean and I push around the broom and Swivel Sweeper all the time. I continue to be obsessed with books and computers. Mommy says she's gonna have to wean me off TV when we move to the new house. Despite not having tv for the last 2 months in our old house, since being in the apartment I have become transfixed with the tv despite the fact that we don't have cable and only get 4 channels.
We had our house inspection last week and as long as the sellers agree to make the fixes Mommy and Daddy asked for, we will be moving in on Oct. 6th. That is only 2 weeks away! We all can't wait.
For all you in ND, come visit us soon! I'll be having a big shindig in Nov. for my birthday. For my friends in KC, I miss you! Can't wait til our next visit.

My Friends in KC
Mommy and I have been up here in EGF for two weeks now, and Mommy finally got all our pictures uploaded from the past month. Before we left KC, we were sure to spend lots of time with our friends there. In fact, our friend Liz hosted a farewell party for us and all our friends from our parenting group in KC. Mommy made sure to take lots of pictures that night:)
