Little known facts about me.

   I'm ba-a-ack, posting for Mommy because she's neglecting her blog again.  In her defense, she is busy getting ready for the trip-of-all-trips we're going to take in a couple days, on which I will ride an airplane for the first time ever!  I hope it's not too scary.  Anything that big shouldn't be able to get off the ground, I always like to say, but I should probably get used to it because Mommy likes to travel. 

   At first, I couldn't think of what to post about, but then I realized that you all probably know Mommy pretty well by now, but you don't know much about me! So I thought I'd enlighten you all on a few tidbits about me that some of you may not know:

 #1.  In pictures my eyes look so dark, and people say they're "just like mommy's", but they are actually dark blue, like daddy's!  Well, daddy's are light blue I guess, but close enough.

   I know, I know, they look dark brown.  Mommy even labeled a picture of me "brown-eyed girl" by mistake one time, because they look like it so much in pictures.  Silly Mommy.  But they're honest-to-goodness blue, so that's just a little added benefit to meeting me in person! 

#2.  There are some confusing look-a-likes in my Daddy's family.  In fact, my Uncle Justin looks so much like Daddy that I would get them mixed up, except that daddy talks more.  And Uncle J. smells like strawberries.  O.k. I made that last part up.
 Hmmm....confusing....
Exhibit B: Here I am being held by Grandma Bonnie.

And here she is with Great Aunt Connie.

And here I'm being held again by Grandma. I mean, wait...I'm confused.



#3.  One of my favorite activities these days is grabbing.  I like to grab my toys, Mommy's hair, clothes, blankets...basically anything I can get my hands on. 
  But sometimes I can't quite get it either into my mouth, or just where I want it, and it's just so frustrating not having yet developed the coordination to accomplish my objectives!  Grrr....

   Sometimes I just can't wait to be bigger.  Big enough to eat the food Daddy & Mommy are always eating, big enough to go outside whenever I want, big enough to reach all the way up to Mommy's knees....but I hear Mommy saying all the time, " Baby Joce, don't grow up too fast!"  And so I will try not to.  But like I said, I can't wait. 

  I hope Mommy gets done packing soon so she can play with me.  My favorite things to do with Mommy lately are playing "Pat-a-Cake" and listening to her read books and my Lulla-Bible.  Oh and the Lulla-Bible songs.  I lo-o-ove those too. 

That's all for now, hope you all have a nice day!

  2. This is too sweet!! Hope all your travels suit Jocelyn well!!! I'm sure people told you, but just in case, try to get her suck on something through take-off and landing for her little ears. I wouldn't have had a clue, but I think it helped Haley when we flew! Oh...and give Amanda a HUG for me if you think about it. So sad to miss her wedding. ~Jana
