A Very Special Shopping Mall... 2007-08-24 23:00:00 Willow Grove ParkToday, my Pop-Pop and Grammy went to a place called Willow Grove Park and took me along for the ride. It was a big shopping mall with lots of people, stores, and room to run. As we looked around the mall, they told me a story about another Willow Grove Park that was there a long time ago before the mall was built. It was something called an "amusement park" and it was filled with all kinds of fun things for kids to ride on. Even though my Pop-Pop and Grammy didn't know each other back then, they both remembered going to the park many-a-summer with their family, church, or friends. Just then, I looked up and couldn't believe my eyes...it was a big merry-go-round...right there in the mall! Of course, I just had to get on it so, me and Pop-Pop went for a ride. After we got off the merry-go-round, Grammy told me that it was built and put in the mall as something called a "symbol" so people would never forget the old Willow Grove amusement park. I had a nice time at the Read more:Shopping

The Booga Report 2007-10-02 23:00:00 "What's Your Name?"Can you believe it is October already? It seems like September was only here for a minute in my house but, here's the scoop on what's been happening...I am really keeping Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop on their toes these days. Anything and everything that is not nailed down in the house is mine-all-mine to play with! I have plenty of toys but who wants to play with those when there's TV remotes to hide (O-o-p-s!), little things called "nic-nacs" that go c-r-a-s-h when they hit the floor (O-o-p-s!), other things called "CDs" to pull off of shelves (O-o-p-s!), keys to throw in the trash (O-o-p-s!), books or magazines with pages that you can actually tear (O-o-p-s!), something called "record albums" to pull out of their covers and drop on the floor (O-o-p-s!), pots to drag out of cabinets (O-o-p-s!) and well, you get the picture. I even discovered that if you pull on something called a dresser scarf or a place mat, everything on it will come sliding toward you...and i

Movin' On Up! 2007-10-20 23:00:00 Service of Licensure & OrdinationTrue Vine Missionary Full Gospel Baptist ChurchSaturday, October 20, 2007This was a very special day for my Godparents...my Godmomie Latoya was elevated in ministry and we all went to their church in Chester, PA to see it! My Godpopie Justin presented her and three other people called "candidates" for elevation in the Class of 2007. There were lots of people there...some of them traveled all the way from a place called "Virginia" on a bus. We were proud of Godmomie Latoya and she was very happy! After the service was over, we all went outside to take some pics together. My Mommy's friend, Marsha, was there and we also got a chance to meet my Godpopie Justin's parents, my Godmomie Latoya's Mommy, and other members of their families. Elyce was there too!On the way home from the service, we stopped at one of my favorite spots to get a bite to eat...McDonald's! Don'tcha just love the french fries and milk shakes? The toy suprises are really cool to
Let The Learning Begin... 2007-10-24 23:00:00 But I Like Arts & Crafts!It seems like only yesterday that I was strapped in a baby seat or trapped in a playpen and could only watch the other kids have all the fun at day care. Then, I learned how to crawl and spent only limited amounts of time out of the seat and playpen so I wouldn't be in the way while the other kids played. After what felt like FOREVER, I learned how to stand up, walk, and run so I could finally play with the other kids too. We had so much fun and absolutely NOTHING was expected of us. Those were the days! Now that I'm a big boy, the time I spend at day care is changing and it's not just about running and playing all day anymore. Ms. Bea and Nyeisha are beginning to teach me about things called alphabets, numbers, colors, and shapes. We also spend time doing something called "arts and crafts". I really like that because I'm learning how to use paper, crayons, paint, glue, and construction paper to make all kinds of really cool stuff. Ms. Bea and Nyeisha a Read more:Learning
Rain, Rain, Go Away... 2007-10-28 23:00:00 Don't Come Back Another Day!Yesterday was a typical Sunday like any other for me. I woke up, ate breakfast, and got dressed. After that, we all piled in the car and went to SBC. I like going to church because I always have a good time clapping and singing. When the singing stops, what I do from that point on varies depending on how I'm feeling. Sometimes, I just fall asleep, which is what I did yesterday. When I want to move around and have fun, Mommy takes me to the child care room. There are always other kids to play with and plenty of snacks to keep me happy until the service is over. Sunday is also a good day for Mommy to pick up all kinds of "stuff" that I need . We usually do that after church so, we went to the supermarket and a store called "Target". I like riding in shopping carts so, that's what I did in both stores. Grammy saw a Thomas & Friends carry case in Target that she thought I might like because I watch the TV show all the time. Since Grammy is in charge of "
The Next Generation: 12 Strong! 2007-11-09 23:00:00 Me & My CousinsHere's a little something to keep you busy until my next post. Me and my Grammy went to a place called the "internet" and found something called a "word search generator". We used it to create this thing called a "puzzle" that has my name and the names of my cousins. See how many names you can find. If you get really desperate, you can hit the Show Answers button but, that's no fun! Try to keep the answers hidden. You can note the names you found and how long it took you to complete the puzzle in the comments. We hope that everyone's name is spelled correctly; if not, please forgive the error and let us know the correct spelling. Also, I have two cousins named Jaden but, the name only appears once in the puzzle to represent both of them. Now, are you ready? On your mark, get set, GO! The countdown clock is ticking...Good Luck!CAN YOU FIND OUR NAMES?AANNIHALIANASNYLAOLKIHDPMLLLOMIASBATMHLEAJRSCANKNMAEIAELTAPALECSAEAOLIRAEASONAITNIIAEJAAHACYJAJKAAHOSCEEIOKIIIII Read more:Generation

Black Friday 2007-11-22 23:00:00 Shopping, Rides, and a Movie!I'm not too sure what a "BlackFriday
" is...I thought it was going to be dark all day long! Anyhoo, we all got up early, piled in the car, and went to the King of Prussia mall looking for something called "sales". There were Christmas decorations everywhere and lots of people. We saw Santa Claus there but the line was too long to pay him a visit this year. When we stopped looking for sales, we had some Chinese food for lunch. I just love that white steamed rice! Pop-Pop had his favorite, italian food, instead.After lunch, I got a chance to get on some rides. Then, we headed over to the movie theatre to see "This Christmas." Me and my Mommy sat together, my Pop-Pop made sure I had plenty of popcorn, and I took sips of my Grammy's soda whenever she wasn't looking. And, guess what? For the first time, I didn't fall asleep and I actually saw the whole movie. It was really nice and I liked it a lot. It was a fun day, the sun was out (but it was really cold), Read more:Black Friday

Thanksgiving Day 2007-11-21 23:00:00 Family, Friends, Food, & Fun! I had dinner at my Great Grandmother Pumpkin Pie's house, just like I did last year. This time, I actually ate food instead of my Elmo toy. It's funny how much your taste buds can change in one year.Of course, my Mommy was there too.My Pop-Pop drove us to Pumpkin Pie's house. He stopped in for a few minutes and a quick bite to eat. Then, off he went to pick up my Great Uncle Andy so they could have dinner at my Great Nana Faye's house.When dinner was over, me and Mommy just chilled in the living room for a while and watched some TV while Pumpkin Pie and Grammy talked in the kitchen."Hello. Who's calling?""Pumpkin Pie, telephone!"When we left Pumpkin Pie's house, Mommy took me to visit my Great Grandparents Mama & Pop-Pop. Aunt Ronnie, Trylanna, Early Jr., and Aaron were there too! From there, we were off to see my Godmomie Latoya and Godpopie Justin. I got a chance to meet my Godmomie Latoya's aunt and her family. After that, it was time to Read more:Thanksgiving

Puttin' Up The Christmas Tree 2 2007-12-08 23:00:00 Did You Put Your Tree Up Yet?I'm still fighting a cold but I wanted to help my Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop put up the Christmas
tree today. I wasn't about to let a little cold stand in my way! I remember all the fun we had doing it last year... Mommy dressed me up in a Santa Claus suit, I got a chance to play in the Christmas tree box, and we put all kinds of things on the tree. Grammy even started something called a "tradition". She got me a special thing called an "ornament" to put on the tree. It was a tiny sleigh with my name on it. When we finished with the tree and turned the lights on, it was really something to see!This year's "Puttin
g' Up The Christmas Tree" was a lot different than last year. For starters, I couldn't wear my Santa suit because Mommy said I am too big for it now. I also discovered that it's a lot more fun to let everyone else put things on the tree so I can take them off! Of course, this meant we had to play a round of the "NO! and STOP!" game but, it wa
I'm On Sick Leave 2007-12-07 23:00:00 God Bless You! Well, I didn't get a chance to help my Grammy with any more blog posts this past week because I got sick with a cold. I was sneezing and coughing a lot. Mommy said that I felt a little warm and had something called a "fever" so, she decided not to send me to day care on Thursday and Friday. I really missed Ms. Bea, Nyeisha, and all my friends but Mommy said that I might make them sick too so, I had to stay at home. She stayed home (and didn't go to work) so she could take care of me and did all kinds of things to help me feel better. We even wrapped up in our blankee and watched "Thomas & Friends" together for hours!Click logo to enter! Read more:Leave
A Night To Remember 2007-12-13 23:00:00 Sights & Sounds of Christmasin Havertown, PAI would like for you to meet my Grammy's good friends, Rev. John and his wife, Dale. Rev. John also works with my Grammy and they have known each other for a very long time. They invited all of us to come out to a place called Havertown for an evening of Christmas cheer. First, we stopped and got a bite to eat at a nice place that had steaks, hoagies, pizza, hamburgers, and one of my personal favorites...french fries!Right next door to the place where we ate dinner, there was a store that was full of all kinds of trains. Of course, my favorite thing in the store was a table-top train set of Thomas & Friends on the Island of Sodor. I saw Thomas, Percy, Gordon, Annie, Clarabelle, Sir Topham Hatt, and all the gang! I had a good time playing with it and, trust me, I got really upset when I found out I had to leave them all behind in the store!We also went upstairs and looked at all the other trains and stuff in the store.

Never allow yourself to be distractedby the TV while you're eating pizza.3. If your pizza has several different toppings,it can be fun to pick them off andeat them separately. 4. When you are really enjoying your pizza,close your eyes and it will taste even better!5. If anyone is foolish enough to think thatthey're gonna take your pizza, just cut thema look that says, "Don't even think about it!"Sick Leave UpdateWell, I got my wish! By Monday morning of this week, my Mommy decided that it would be OK for me to return to day care and she went back to work. But, because I still had something called the "sniffles" and the weatherman said that we were going to have something called an "ice storm", Mommy thought it might be better if I stayed at home today. My Grammy had something called a "use it or lose it vacation day" so, I just kept her company all day. Pop-Pop had a Christmas party at h Read more:Vacation

A Philadelphia Tradition 2007-12-23 23:00:00 The Light Show at Christmas Time!OK, I know we were going to take a break from blogging until Christmas Day was over but, we decided to slip this one in just before the holiday...Today, my Mommy and Grammy took me on a trip downtown to see something called "The Light Show". But first, we stopped at a place called the "Reading Terminal Market" and had some lunch at a place called Delilah's.After we ate, we went to a really big place called a "department store" and the name of it was Macy's. When we went inside, I saw lots of people with little kids just like me. I guess they were all there to see The Light Show too. We came across a couple of nice spots to take some pics...a sleigh-in-the-snow display and the Macy's Christmas tree.After we wandered around the store a bit, we took an elevator ride to the second floor (Mommy let me push the button). When we got off, we looked around for a really good spot to see The Light Show and found one. While we waited for the show to begin, every Read more:Tradition

A Lesson In "Potty Training"... 2008-02-29 23:00:00 From a Place Called "I-K-E-A"Today, my Pop-Pop and Grammy went to a store called "I-K-E-A" and they took me along for the ride. I usually like the places they take me to but, when we got to this store, it just didn't look like the kind of place where I could have any fun. Boy, was I wrong!After we walked around in the store for a while, we found a play area just for kids called "SMALAND". I got really excited about it, only to find out that I couldn't stay and play because I'm not "potty trained". What a bummer! I tried to explain that I'm working on the "potty thing" and I just need a little more time but, it didn't seem to matter to anyone. You either knew how to use the "pot" or you didn't. Needless to say, I was quite upset.We continued to walk around in the store and just when I thoug Read more:Training
