Disneyland and Club 33 with the Petersens!!


Danni loved Club 33 ... (and this is one of our few pictures of the place... Mommy and Daddy had their hands too full to take pix! Imagine that!!)


Sharing a laugh with Ron...


Danni, Papa, and Ahntee Suz...


Danni and Papa at Club 33....



Danni is easily entertained with Cheerios and spoons...


Danni tried to rearrage Uncle Po's face...




Uncle Po is getting ready for future stroller duty... Don't worry, he needs a few years of practice before it's his turn to drive one of these....


Ramey was there with her parents too... I kinda like her. :)


Danni touched the water ball...


Danni and Maren...


Danni and Steph (the guest of honor!)


Danni thought Buzz Lightyear's Astroblaster was deeee-licious....


I have pretty good aim for a two-year-old!


Papa and I taking a wild ride...


Two of my faves: Papa and the Up & Down...


The kid behind me never caught up!


Figuring out how to dismantle my corn cup...


Danni couldn't hang ....


Walking with Papa...


Danni really wanted to take a swim on It's a Small World...


Daddy and Greg thought it was the Love Boat...


Greg, Daddy, and Danni in line for Small World...


I did NOT want to share my cookies with Ahntee Suz...


Auntie Lynn hurt her back and had to drive an ECV (Electric Convenience Vehicle) ... This was one of the highlights of my day.


IT had tons of buttons and a cooool horn! She wouldn't let me drive, though!


Hanging with Papa on Main Street...


Mama and Danni...

I knuckles-ed my cup with Papa. CHEERS!

My second cousin once removed, Stephanie, battled cancer and WON! We celebrated her amazing courage and victory with a trip to Disneyland and a special lunch at the exclusive Club 33. Of course, since I am only 2, I enjoyed the rides the most! Club 33 is a fancy restaurant at Disneyland (one with a full bar and tablecloths!) I don't get to eat at these kinds of places very often!! :) Danni and I were pretty well-behaved ... although, the bus boy that had to clean up the floor under Danni's high chair might not agree.... and, I had to take a few "breaks" to go to the bathroom to play with the trash can that had a foot pedal on it... but, Mommy and Daddy were impressed that no one escorted us out before we were ready to leave! After a nice lunch, we rode all of my favorites!! It was so great to celebrate with our Utah cousins.... and best of all, Steph is healthy and happy!!

Valentine's Party @ Mama Vee's!


Mommy and Danni (*I* took this picture -- are you impressed?!)


Monkey bars at Danni's level!


Peek-a-boo!!!


There were little chairs just for Danni...


I laughed so hard that I slobbered all over my shirt....


Playing ball with the big boys...


Mama Vee let us throw the ball INSIDE ...


Drinking some punch!


I squirted out my juice box into a cup...


Danni loved hanging with Mama Vee's girls...


I did a project at my very own desk...


Cutting paper like the big kids...


Danni loved hanging out with Mama Vee...


I was very serious about my treats!


Scissors require lots of concentration!

To celebrate Valentine's Day, Mommy, Danni, and I headed over to Mama Vee's school in Whittier and crashed her class party! I LOVED meeting all of her kids and enjoying all of the treats! I had tons of cookies, candy, cupcakes, suckers, and punch. (Boy, was I ever hyper afterward!) ... I got to sit in a real 3rd grader's desk and cut paper for a project. I also got to play with some of the pretty girls ... then some of the boys and I threw the ball against the wall. Danni had never been to Mama Vee's school so she was excited to meet everyone... and to explore the action on the floor. We had a fantastic Valentine's party... I can't wait to go back for Easter!!!

The only time we sit still....


Danni still needs to be burped...


It's a beautiful day for a ride in the cart!


My eyes match my Disneyland hat!


Danni is embarrassed by the spectacle that Daddy and I were making!

...but she still gave me kisses!!

... is when we're together in a shopping cart! :) I love the 'double wide' carts at Sam's Club ... these allow me to keep my eyes... and HANDS on Danni!! I also love Sam's Club pizza!! Yum! Daddy, Danni, and I head there sometimes for lunch while Mommy is at work. Errands are FUN when there are two bambinos on board!

JANE Deere?

Love her chunky little legs!!


Daddy helped her ride the tractor...


These boots were made for (almost!) walkin' !!


I had to reclaim MY hat....


Cute little farmer girl...

Papa got Danni an adorable John Deere onesie for Christmas! Mommy and Daddy got her all decked out white trash style ... complete with MY JD boots, tractor, and hat!!! She makes a cute little farmer, doesn't she?!
