It's MY turn now...

That's right people, it's me, Remi, Rem, Rem-bot, the Reminator, Remsters, Rem-dog, Remi dollie, sweet cheeks and at times, goob face. It just came to my attention that Tyler has been updating this blog, posting pictures of me and talking about me without my consent. So, I woke up early from nap this morning and while mommy is battling the dust bunnies under the couch, I plan to set the record straight, or at least post my thoughts...

I am a happy girl, a cute girl, some even say adorable, but who am I to toot my own horn. I rarely cry, I love to eat and a new passion of mine is to destroy anything my brother might be working on; castles, puzzles, games, you name it, I can destroy it! I'm fairly content with my life, although I have learned to shall we say, manipulate the situation, to get what I want. If Tyler takes something away from me that I want, I can scream bloody murder and I've managed to make the scream sound just like my "I'm hurt scream," which ensures mommy comes running to my rescue. Although, I think she may be on to me, as she hasn't been as useful as of late, so much for girls sticking together!


Oh, I hear mommy coming, so I better wrap this up. I do want to go on record saying that I adore my brother, whether he realizes it or not. I spend most of my day trying to follow him around and only he can make me burst into giggles for no reason at all. He is an awesome big brother as he is always looking out for me. When we drop him off at school, he is always protecting me from other kids. Sure, he might try to sit on my head every once in awhile, but he tells me that's just to toughen me up, I have yet to check on that one with mommy... Below are some pics of none other than ME! I'll be one in a few weeks and these show how I've changed and grown in just one short year!

Snow, Finally!

While we've had a dusting here and there, we have yet to get any significant snowfall. So the other day when we got maybe 2 inches, I put my foot down and demanded some snow time. Plus, this was Remi's first time "playing" in the snow. Remi lasted for all of 10 minutes and when she went down for a nap, I took daddy sledding.


Remi's first time in the snow


I love to eat snow! When I walked out the door a couple of weeks ago and saw there was a dusting of snow, I dropped to my knees and starting licking the ground! Yeah, Yeah, I know mama, only eat white snow...


Notice the mittens are off. I taught her that, just so we could annoy mama


We decided to take the sled picture too late and Remi just sat there screaming.


Now that I'm a big boy, I have to pull my sled back up the hill myself. No one told me about that in advance. If things like this little surprise keep happening, I don't think I want to get any older!


Sled? Who needs a sled? I'll just slide down the hill on my belly!
