Getting Ready for Super Bowl




Well, here we are waiting for Super Bowl Sunday, whatever that is. Dad seems all excited about spending the afternoon with his brothers and a some other guys cheering for their favorite team. We are not sure what that is all about. We don't think that Elmo or any of the other Sesame Street gang will be involved so this sounds pretty boring to us. Oh well, maybe someday we will understand what all the excitement is about.
We are growing as fast as we can. Mom lets us climb up the stairs every day when we lay down for our nap and when we go to bed at night. It is lots of fun racing each other up the stairs. Nicklaus likes to run into mom and dad's bedroom, but Madeline and I prefer to go into our own room. Nicklaus likes to climb on things and does so every chance he gets. Yesterday he got up on a chair and then onto mom's desk, but then he got scared and started to cry. Guess one day he is going to have to learn to climb down also. Grandma Sharon arrived just in time to keep him from falling off the desk, so all was well. I enjoy holding one of my dolls and loving it. Madeline likes to play with the blocks and Nicklaus likes to jump and climb on everything. Nicklaus is also very good at placing the different shaped blocks into the correct holes. Mom and Grandma Sharon are trying to get us to eat with a spoon. The other day they gave us Spagetthi-O's to eat. Guess they found out that was a big mistake. We enjoyed getting the tomatoe stuff all over the place. We are looking forward to being able to do that again real soon. Well, Grandpa Bernie said that we should not be too long as he needs to add some photos to this posting. I hope you enjoy them. One is of Nicklaus and I learning to play piano at Grandma Sharon and Grandpa Bernie's house, the other is of Madeline, and there is one of all three of us together. Gracie
