Great Wolf Lodge

I went to Great Wolf Lodge Sunday and Monday. The water park was awesome! One of the slides was so fast that Mommy screamed the whole way down. There was a wave pool and we had lots of fun.

Me and Joshy slept in our own cave in our room. There was a bunk bed and I slept on the top bunk.

There were also games with wands that controlled everything and I thought it was cool. But Mommy thought it was very confusing. We had to pick quests by choosing them on fake trees with screens. After you picked the quest you got to go on little missions. Like my favorite was the animal mission. It had a picture of a paw print on it.

I hope you enjoyed this post.

Charlie

At Grandma's friend's house, they have a cute puppy named Charlie, and he is really a puppy. He is eleven weeks old. And he really, really, really loves me.

The first time that he saw me, he wrestled with me. He is still teething. His teeth were sharp as needles. I know that because he nibbled on me a lot.

He was the cutest Golden Retriever puppy that I ever saw. I want to show you a couple pictures of him.

I Love Skiing with My Daddy

First of all, I want to tell you Kaia's favorite Junie B book because she won. Her favorite book is "Boo... and I Mean It."

Now I am going to tell you about me and my Daddy going skiing. I went on the ski lift with Daddy. It was a little scary getting on and off. But then I got used to it.

My little brother, Joshy, and my two cousins, Jessica and Max, went tubing. So that's how I got time alone with my Daddy.

The first time I got off the ski lift, I slipped a little bit. But Daddy helped me up. It was too easy to ski on the hill that the chair lift took us to, but we stayed on that hill so I could get the hang of going up and down the chair lift. Next time we go skiing, we are going to go on the big hill that daddy goes on.

Did you do something in the snow this weekend?

How I Like to Play in the Snow

I had a snow ball fight with my neighbor and her friend. We had lots of fun together, and the snow was very deep. And it was hard for us to run around.

Daddy signed up for the plowers to come, and Joshy and I love it because they plow the snow up to the curb and it looks like a snow fort. We gather pieces of ice and we pretend they are diamonds and crystals. And we bury them in our fort.

Me and my brother like to eat the snow off the ground.

I hope you like to play in the snow too.

Different Museums

Hi, I'm going to tell you a little bit about museums. When I was younger, every day my grandma used to take me to lots of museums. My grandma works at the Jewish Museum so she took me there the most often. She showed me all of the art.

I really enjoy butterflies so one day my grandma took me to the Museum of Natural History. They have a whole room that's full of butterflies. All the butterflies were all different colors, and they were so beautiful!

She took me to the Children's Museum and a couple of days ago she took me to the Guggenheim Museum. What I liked about the Guggenheim is that it was the only round museum that I ever heard of.

One night, I put lots of my puzzles together and I made a puzzle museum. I'm going to show you a little video of me doing it. But first I want to ask you a question: What's your favorite museum to go to?
