I'm Signing

January 18, 2006

Mommy and I were reading my soft little book tonight, the one with a fire truck, train, car, etc...AND when we got to my favorite page I decided to show off my new trick and signed "airplane". Mommy couldn't believe it so we did it again and again. Then she showed me a block that had an airplane on it and I showed her I knew the sign. I love watching the airplanes go by outside and we always talk about them, so I decided it was time to show them what I know. Mommy and Daddy were sooo excited and they kept asking me over and over...after the 10th time I was getting tired, but I did let Mommy get the picture.


We celebrated my first "Firefighter" birthday party last Saturday, January 14th. Papa Don and all the Estees came over. I had so much fun. I gave my cousins little fire hats to wear while they played and colored pictures. I ate a whole piece of Big Fred's pepperoni pizza, not leaving much room for birthday cake and ice-cream. Although Mommy and Daddy asked for birthday cards only as I didn't need any new toys, I received fun toys like a fridge animal magnets, wooden puzzles, a fire truck book that makes a lot of noises and a toy bowling set (watch out Grandma Becky). Here's a picture of Bella reading a story to me...it started "Once upon a time, there was a firefighter named Maverick..."
