Booga Update 02/24/07

Hi

Dear Family & Friends,

I am 1 year + 1 month old today. Since I don't see the doc every month anymore, I guess my stats are 23 lbs.+ 30 inches long. Who cares anyway...the point is, I'm officially a "big boy" now because my top story for the month is

I Can Walk!

That's right folks...I can finally do it and it feels great! There's just no stopping me now. I'm really keeping my Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop on their toes because I'm just all over the place. Look out E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G, here I come! On the day care front, I am right in the middle of all the action with my friends. No more sitting on the sidelines and just watching for me...I'm all up in the Kool-Aid, know the flava, and it's all good!

Backin' up just a little, the month didn't get off to such a great start. I had a bad chest cold for about 2 weeks. My Mommy took me to some place called "CHOP" so the doc could take a look at me. As always, I really enjoyed all the attention from the nurses. If you haven't guessed it yet, I'm a bit of a ham, you know. Anyhoo, the doc said I had the same type of cold I had in April 2006 but, I was a big boy now and could fight it off on my own without a hospital stay. And, guess what? That's just what I did.

Some other highlights this month were birthdays: My Mommy (Feb 6th) and my Great Aunt Wanda (Feb 1st). We were all planning to go to some place called the "Olive Garden" to celebrate. After I got sick, we decided to have a chinese food fest at my house instead. The food was good (I really liked the steamed rice) and we all had a great time. I'm just sorry we forgot to take some pics. Speaking of food, I am still enjoying all kinds of different table food...in fact, anytime I see anybody eating anything, I MUST have some. I'm not shy and will try just about anything once.

Some time later after I was feeling better and showed that cold just who was the boss, I went to the movies with my Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop to see "Daddy's Little Girls". Of course, I can't tell you a thing about the movie because I fell asleep. But, it was nice to finally get out of the house for a while. My Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop said the movie was really good and they recommend that you see it!

The Booga & Racoon/The Name Game: I want to thank Cousin Melanie for suggesting the perfect name for the racoon my Great Aunt Wanda gave me. The name she suggests is "Bandit!" Don't you just love it? I know I do and that is going to be his name!

Well, I guess that's all for now. My Mommy and Pop-Pop are doing fine. Unfortunately, my Grammy caught my cold and is a little under the weather right now. I'm sure she will be fine in a few more days. As always, they all said to tell you "hello". Look for my next update on 03/24/06.

Take care...

Love, "The Booga"

I saw the pics and it's just TOO NEAT! So, let's "reak some havic" in there now that we can both walk. Have your peeps call my peeps, OK?

The Booga & "Racoon"

The Name Game

Help
I would like for you to meet my new friend.

He's something called a "racoon".

My Great Aunt Wanda gave him to me.

He's really neat!

Mommy can put him in something called a "microwave" for a little while so he can keep me warm when it's cold.

She can also put him in something called a "freezer" for a little while so he can keep me cool when it's hot.

The only thing is, I don't have a name for him.

If I promise not to take a long as Grammy did to make up my mind,
would you help me pick a name for him?

You can note your name suggestions
for "racoon" in the comments.

Great Aunt Wanda,
thank you so much for my special friend.
Thanks for your help!

PRAYER FOR CHILDREN

Lord Jesus, You were never too busy to pay attention to children, for You dearly loved them. We are happy that you love us and that You have time to listen to our prayers and to answer them. We thank You that You have made us Your own. As we get bigger and stronger every day, help us to grow stronger in our faith too. Bless our parents, whom You have given to us, and help us to respect and obey them, to love and treasure them. Forgive us when we disobey them or when we fail to respect them as Your previous gifts to us. Give them the wisdom to train us in the good and right way. Bless our home and every member of our family with a strong faith in You and true love to one another. Teach us to be kind, unselfish, helpful, cheerful, forgiving, and faithful in our duties. Help us to be like You, Lord Jesus, to grow in wisdom and character and in favor with God and all people. Send Your angels to watch over us, to keep us from all harm of body and soul. Bless us, and make us a blessing to our family and friends. Amen.
