Cousin, Choo Choos & a Fan

Well folks,

I've been enjoying my time in the States!  This weekend my one and only cousin (thus far) came to see me & we had loads of fun!
First we helped Gramps wash his canoe - well Derek did the washing, I made sure everyone knew what their job was!

Then we tried to take a photo for Grammie and Gramps but we weren't sure who was the one who should throw a fit so we had a stare down...

I lost!

So Mommy & Gramps decided to give us M&M's to make us sit for the photos... Derek tried to steal some of mine...

But don't you worry I learned my lesson and made sure I wont the stare down this time!

We also like to talk walks together... Derek on his bike and me with my baby!

Derek liked to show me his new biking skills... no hands!  Wow!

I played with my new stroller with Grammie...

But then Derek heard a Train go by... Derek LOVES Choo Choos so he wanted to go see them..

He kept running around pointing saying "Choo Choo, Choo Choo" and finally I got up from playing with my dolls, walked over to him and said "Hey kid if you want a Choo Choo look at your belly!"   Mom and Grammie were in stitches laughing at me!

Derek wasn't the only one to come see me - both my Aunties came for a visit as well.  Julie and I read some new books and played with her iphone...

And Meg tried to teach me how to talk barefoot on the grass... I don't like to let my piggies outside with out shoes on people!

Meg and I share the same name... she's Meg Luella!   Lets just say she had to meet me before she started to like her middle name! Ha!

And finally, last but not least...  I went to lunch with one of my biggest fans... Joni! Mom was going to come but she was up the night before trying to arrange for us to stay the extra week so she slept in and Grammie took me to lunch with my fan. We had a great time - just me and the gals!

That's all for now folks!

Love, Lulu

At My Nammie and Bop-pa's

Well folks,

I'm writing from afar these days as I've been chillin' at Grammie and Gramps' house aka Nammie and Bop-pa.   But don't worry I'll still make sure to give a shout out to all you out there wondering what I've been up to!

First, before I left Ireland I had to make sure to give Daddy and Dixie a Birthday Party - they both turned 35 years old this year!  

Daddy you smile for the camera and I'll steal your chocolate!

Don't worry I didn't forget to give Dixie lots of hugs!

Grammie and Gramps' house is great fun - they have everything just my size!  (BTW Irish babies do NOT like pickles!)

My Uncle JJ and Aunt Nicole came to play with me and we went up to the top of the world - Grandad's Bluff.

But don't worry I've been earning my keep while I've been here - I help Gramps water the lawn at night...

Gramps you missed a spot right over there!

When Gramps was going to go canoeing last week I made sure Gramps's canoe was clean before he paddled away...

I had to give it a really good scrub!

Then I checked to make sure the seat was comfy - with my new purse or as I call it my "go".

Then I sent him off and made sure he knew to go North!

But before I left the river I had to dip my feet in like Grammie always does - now I can say I've been in the Mississippi River!

Later folks, Lulu

And I'm on my way....

Well folks,

I'm off to the States tomorrow with Mom but had to let you know what Mom & I were up to last weekend.  Daddy went to Paul's Stag party so Mom & I had some fun together!

First, we cleaned the house (I love to sweep the floors) and I made sure to check every spot. Clean under here Mom!

Then, Mom had a surprise for me... she took me to a pet farm nearby to see the animals.     Boy did I have fun running around the place!    I found some "Baas" and made sure to bend down to give them kisses...

I really liked it when they tried to eat my fingers... I actually fell over laughing so hard!

After we went to see the horses and the llamas, I found a really cool friend... I demanded to see his tail and look - he put on a show for little ol'me!

But the best animal on the farm, well...

That's right that's Tom and I.  I wish I had my turkey outfit on hand although I have to say he was a bit scary when he came close!

The pet farm had a big bouncy castle which I had to myself for a while when we first arrived.  When we went back later on it was full and I had so much fun thinking I was a big kid getting bounced all over!

It was a hair raising experience!

Well folks it was a great weekend, but I'm outta here - look out USA here comes Lulu!

Just Me & My Dad

Well folks,

Sorry I'm a bit late in updating my account - blame Mom she's been busy!    Well I've been having loads of fun while Mom ditched me for work - she went to London and has had lots of meetings lately so I've been hanging around with Dad!

Daddy & Me.... well you couldn't get two peas in a pod more alike!  

Everyone still says I look just like him so we have to make sure we practice our looks!

I have loads of fun when I'm with Daddy.... maybe it's because he buys me my own treats like muffins...

And Chocolate....

And Charlie!  My new horse... I love horses so Dad and I went to get the dogs a new bed (which I'm sitting on) and I came home with this... we send the photo to Mom when she was in London and she said she burst out laughing in her meeting!

Daddy also lets me play outside with the dogs.   I like to play in the muck but then hold out my hands saying "gagy" aka dirty and prefer to have someone clean them off!

We also went to the garden centre to buy stuff for our backyard.   Daddy let me throw coins into the fountain... my wish more chocolate!

I almost was eaten by Rex but luckily Daddy saved me!

We spent a few days together and it rained so Daddy took me to playland and boy did I have fun!  Here I am saying "Cheese" to send a photo to Mom to show her all the fun we were having together!

I also made sure to be my goofy self... if you ask me what does a monkey say, I do this and say  "ooh ooh ooh" sound.   Daddy made sure I practiced every night in my bath so I'd be a good monkey!

And finally, after all the fun we had together I made sure to rest up so that I'd be full of energy when Mom came back home!

See you later folks!
Love, Lulu
