Today I went to a Halloween party with my Playgroup. I am going to be a banana on Halloween, but you can't play in that costume, so I wore this beautiful Rapunzel outfit that I got from Coit and Valerie!
When Mama showed me this picture, I said "Pretty!".
While Grandpa was here, we went on the swings.
We played in the sandbox.
We climbed up the slide and then climbed back down. (Could I be any skinnier, by the way?)
We had so much fun. He left this morning and I miss him already. I took Mama in the bathroom earlier to show her that his washcloth was still in the shower.
We stopped in Triberg and had lunch at a restaurant that used to be a bank a long time ago. Grandpa had some traditional Black Forest Ham. It wasn't what he expected, but it was sure good!
I had a little bit of everyone's lunch. Mmmmm.
Here I am with Papa and Grandpa in front of the restaurant. I looked very German today in my beautiful sweater.
The Black Forest is famous for cuckoo clocks. We stopped at the House of 1000 clocks. They had these neat bears in front. One of them even went up and down.
Can you believe the size of that cuckoo clock? I love cuckoo clocks. Papa and I spent a long time looking at them. 
These pictures were taken in September. I finally got to open by presents from Mama and Papa, two months late I might add....Mama didn't want me to open them until we had my room all organized in the new house. She didn't want to add to the mess.....I guess that's reasonable.
I got a cool bouncy thing that I had been admiring at a gift shop on base. Papa hung it from the ceiling. Mama has a rule that I can only bounce it with Papa. (I think she is trying to avoid having to bounce it all day long.)
I got a great little bed for my bear, Alice, and the tucked her into it, with the covers all the way over her head. Nice and cozy.
I love my books!
The day we met
Mama said that the military probably isn't for me. They don't let you have a pacifier.....
....and they make you comb your hair! Yuk.
....that I really relax when I go out in my new bike trailer? (We had to get a new one because the old one wasn't very comfortable.) Papa always knows when I'm going to fall asleep because I take off my helmet and then I'm always asleep within about 2 minutes.
My morning breakfast routine is milk, oatmeal with berries (I love steel cut oats.), and some fruit on the side. I always ask for pretzels too, but I never get them until snack time.
That's some good stuff!
Grandpa and I rode on the safari cars and checked out all the lego animals.
It's hard to tell who is having the most fun, isn't it? (By the way, is anyone else beginning to wonder if this orange t-shirt is the only one I have?)
We went to Garmisch and I found out that Grandpa is a swimmer! This suit was a birthday gift from Grandma and Grandpa. This is a shot of me doing some pre-swim carbo-loading.
This is a picture of me driving a pedal boat on Lake Eibsee. I sat between Papa and Grandpa. They pedalled while Mama and Grandma relaxed in the back....
....and enjoyed the view.
I opened my birthday gifts from them while they visited. I really like opening presents!
The week after our first trip to Legoland, we went again with my friend, PJ, and his family.
PJ and I even went on a canoe ride by ourselves. I was hesistant at first....
....but then Papa explained to me that he would walk right next to us.
We worked really hard paddling the canoe.
Why aren't we moving?
They had a bunch of cool animals in the park, but my favorites were the giraffes, or course.
