Petting Zoe, BK and Italy!

Hi Everyone!
Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks. On the 11th of May we celebrated Mother's Day! I got to go to a petting Zoe with Mama and Papa. It was so much fun and I even got to pet a little monkey. That was so cool!!!!
On the way home we stopped to get a bite at BK. I like to go there becuase I always get a crown and get to sit in a throne to eat my dinner. And this time I got some pretty nifty sunglasses!




This last weekend we went to Italy with my Oma, Opa, and two Aunties. It was the last vacation before my brother, Nils, is born. It was fun, but unfortunately the weather was not perfect. We still got to go for a couple boat rides, play in the sand and I got to hang out with my Aunts. They are lots of fun and take good care of me.

We are all just busy waiting for Nils to get here. I am looking forward to when my mom can hold me on her lap a bit better and when she might be able to carry me again. And I really just can't wait to meet my brother. Maybe next time you hear from me I will already be a big sister.
Love,
Zoe

Birthday Party!

Yesterday my friend Emily had a birthday party. She just turned 2!!! Just like me. We had so much fun playing that I didn't want to go home.

She was nice enough to let me tinker around with some of her birthday gifts. Plus she has two big brothers who spent lots of time playing with me.

Another of our friends, Katie, was there too. We all had so much fun, although we had a few tiffs over the dolly strollers and other toys.

We had really good cupcakes with PINK!!!!!!!! frosting and then for dinner we had hamburgers, American style, right off the grill. They were so good that I had 1 1/2 hamburgers. Everyone was pretty impressed that I can pack in so much meat. (Sorry Aunt Betsy and Uncle Bill, but I am afraid I won't be going Vegan anytime in the near future!!!)

Here is wishing everyone a wonderful Mother's Day!

Hi Everyone! Hope you are all well. I am doing great! Summer is approaching and I have been enjoying the beautiful spring weather here in Austria. As you can see, I am getting bigger and bigger and am certainly no longer a baby. (Although, I pretend to be a baby when I want more attention or just am too lazy to walk or feed myself).
I love music, as you can see above. I am attending a Monday afternoon music class for toddlers and love it. We learn lots of songs, try out different instruments and mostly just get to have fun playing with other kids.

You might also notice that I can be quite the sleepy head sometimes (together with Mama). If Papa snores too loud then Mama joins me in bed (ok ok it has only happened once but....). It is nice to have someone to cuddle with in my bed. I have lots of stuffed animals, but Mama is lots bigger and warmer.

I also have a great time just being a silly goose. I love to wear big girl underpants and am really good about using the potty when we are at home. I have also just discovered that kids can pee outside if its too far to a potty, so I have a good time doing that too. I am getting really excited about Nils, my new brother. I have the feeling we are going to have so much fun to together. I already know that when he cries I will hug him to make him feel better. And I get to help bathe him and when he is a bit bigger tickle him. I can't wait! I also can't wait to see my American family in just 3 months.
Have a great Mother's Day (I have lots of surprises planned for my Mama!)
