My Jello Activity

After finally adjusting back to normal life after being in New York for a week, I got really bored with myself. So, I decided to cook something, since I am an amazing chef. I made a whole package of Jello all by myself! These are some of the images from this experience.

 

 

 Here I am with the Jello package. Mmm... looks yummy!!

 

 

 

 

I can't wait to get started!!!

 

 

 

 

 The first thing I had to do was read the directions. Read carefully, or you will screw up.

 

 

 

 

I had to boil some water. Oh boy!! This is me measuring the water. 

 

 

 

 

This is Phil. He is jealous of my cooking skills, so he just watched. He is too silly.

 

 

 

 

This is the water boiling. Scary stuff. This job is NOT for the faint of heart.

 

 

 

 

Now it's Jello time!!! Strawberry!!! My favorite.

 

 

 

 

I had some trouble opening the package. 

 

 

 

 I got it!!!

 

 

 

 

This is me pouring the strawberry powder into the bowl. It smelled super fragrant. I wanted to eat it raw. 

 

 

 

 

This is a picture of me waiting for that stupid water to boil. It took forever!

 

 Boring.

 

 

 

Since it took forever, I decided to play peek-a-boo in the microwave! Ha ha ha!!! That was cool.

 

 

 

 

Phil and Maria took it too seriously.

 

 

 

 

 

Finally!!! It's ready. 

 

 

 

 

This was tricky. I had to use my mouth!!! It was very steamy.

 

 

 

 

Stir it up...

 

 

 

 

Stir, stir, stir!! My mouth got tired. 

 

 

 

 I had to measure some cold water again! Phil managed to sneak in there. 

 

 

 

 

Pour it in the fragrant mixture...

 

 

 

Stir it up one more time. Although it's tempting, you can't eat it yet. No eating. Just smelling.

 

 

 

 

And that, my friends is how you make Jello. Oh, by the way, it was delightfully tasty and jiggly!!

 

More Fun Stuff at Grandma's

Here I am searching for pirates. Unfortunately, they found out I was there, so they didn't even come close to us. Whimps. 

 

 

 

 

This is me and Rebecca playing pool. As you can see, I needed some help reaching the balls. I lost that game big time. Oh well. 

 

 

 

 

Here I am again with my friends, Maria and Philip. We had lots of fun on the beach! Phil found a dead crab!! Ew. Gross. 

 u

 

 

 

 

 I was trying to explain something to Phil, but he wasn't listening. He was too busy posing for the picture. 

 

 

 

 

This is me getting frustrated with Phil. He still wasn't listening to me. 

 

What you don't see is me slapping Phil in the face after this picture was taken. 

 

 

 

 Here are Emily, Philip, Maria, and Anna playing Clue. Fun game. 

 

 

 

 

 

 My favorite part was rolling the dice!! Ha ha ha!

 

Sunny, but windy day. But look how cool I look in my jacket?!?! Pretty cool, huh?

 

 

 

 Emily and Phil. 

 

 

 

 

Anna and Maria. Unfortunately, we didn't even finish that game. I would have won, though. I am almost sure of it.

 

 

 

 

FREE slurpee day at Seven Eleven!!!!!! Visited every one we could find, then went back twice. This is me slurping mine...notice Phil watching me in the distance. 

 

 

 

 

He tried taking my slurpee away from me, but I wouldn't give up without a fight. This is me biting his ear. He he he!!!

More to come(once I take some more)

Love,

Grandma's House!!!

The Yankee game wasn't the only fun thing we did on our New York vacation. Oh, no. When we left the city, we stayed at Grandma Paul's house on Long Island. We did fun things there.

 

 

Grandma let us dress up in her attic!! I was a mexican dude.

 

 

 

 

 Oh! Super handsome!!

 

 

 

 I was telling Rebecca a surprising secret. Hehehe!!!

 

 

 

 Here I am sniffing wine. Mmmm... smelly!

 

 

 

 

 Red is my favorite!!!
 

 

 

 These are my new friends, Maria and Philip.

 

That's all for now! To be continued...

Love,

My Yankee Excursion

So my Papa asked me one day, 

"Lewigi, would you rather go see a ballet performance in New York or go to a Yankees game?"

I didn't even have to think! YANKEES GAME!!!!!

 

This is Yankee Stadium. Just beautiful.

 

.

 

Here I am at Yankee Stadium surrounded by my fellow Yankee brothers and sisters. I first sat in the fourth row. That didn't fly with me. 

 

 

 

 No worries, though. I talked my way up to the first row. No big deal. 

 

 

 

 

 

The Yankees had a lovely game. They played so well and won because of my inspiring presence! I am a very motivating little puppet!

 

HOME RUN YANKEES!!!!!! YEAH BABY!!!!!!

 

 

 

Yankee Stadium is fine, indeed.

 

 

 

C'mon guys!! Lets get another home run!!!

 

 

 

I was so thrilled to be seated in the first row out in left field, that I began singing one of my favorite songs. The next thing I knew my face was on the Jumbotron!!!!

 

 

 

 "Cause you've gotta fight! Yeah!" I sang.

 

 

 

 

 

I felt so famous!!

 

 

 

"I hope the Yankee bullpen is looking at me!!

 

 

 

I was so enthralled by my 15 second appearance on the Jumbotron, that I just had to take a stroll around the stadium. I really wanted to catch a baseball.

 

  

 

Here are three of my four sisters all smiling and happy to be at the NEW Yankee Stadium!

 

 

  

 

After strolling around the beautiful stadium and soaking up my new fame, Jessica, Rebecca and I went back to the front row seats in left field behind my all-time baseball hero, Johnny Damon!!!!! 

 

 

 

 

Here is me trying to get him to wave at me. 

 I waved and yelled...

 

 

 

"Throw it to the puppet!" I chanted. "Yeah, throw it to the puppet!" other people around us chanted.  But nothing worked.

 

 

 

 

 "He is not even looking at me!" I muttered to myself. "He's playing a game!" Jess reminded me. That made me feel really dumb.

 

 

 Then, the highlight of my life...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 He even smiled!!!

 I am eternally grateful, Johnny!
