WEEK 43 - March 17 - 23, 2011 - 42 weeks old

I had a GREAT week this week!  First of all, my SISSY is here.  It's her spring break from college and she got to come spend an ENTIRE week at home with us!  (I do LOOOOVE my Sissy!)  Secondly, I got to go to my very first Western Days at a ranch!

A local ranch, Reber Ranch, was having a day where they had lots of activities for kids with special needs, so Mommy and Daddy took me to go see what it was all about. I got to see lots of animals, touch a donkey and a pony and spend lots of time looking at miniature sheep and a ROOSTER.  I am a big fan of roosters.  They may all kinds of interesting noises.  They cluck and coo and caw...fascinating, I tell you!  I also saw these HUGE chipmunks.  They were bigger than my Mommy and Daddy!  I was pretty taken with them...maybe even a little overwhelmed, as Daddy couldn't get a great picture of me when I was around them because I had to keep staring!

This weekend also marked a first for me...it was *finally* nice outside, so Mommy and Daddy took me to a PARK!  I rode my very first swing ride and I LOVED IT.  LOVED. IT.  I'm a BIG, BIG fan.  I hope it starts to get nice more frequently so that I can go swinging much more often!

In other news, I'm getting to be quite a big girl at school...I'm sleeping on a COT like the big kids.  It's in preparation for my move to the Toddler room, away from my Ms. Audrey.  THAT doesn't make me happy, but I know Ms. Audrey will be just down the hall...I think I still have a couple months left, at least!
