Bailey bought me this gift when he came home from the hospital. I love my new Dora chair. I sit in it to watch my favorite TV show, Dora the Explorer, which I like to call, "Backpack"

November 28th 2008

My little brother Bailey de Sab Antzis was born today.
At 11:30pm I became a big sister.
I love Bailey.
I like to touch his soft head and kiss his feet.

Potty talk.
I pee everytime I sit on the potty and mommie gives me a sticker to play with. I am peeing and pooing on the potty everyday now.
Yesterday I told mommie I needed to poo and so we went to the potty and I peed and pooed and then I got a little Elmo doll to play with.
And today I told mommie I wanted to poo and we went to the potty and I pooed again and I got an Elmo, Big Bird and Cookie Monster triangle to play with.
Yay!

Went to the Skirball today with Deb & Lucy to see the Noah's Ark exhibit. It was awesome. I'd like to go again, just putting that out there. Here are some photo's. I like the one where I'm seated on a turtle. It's delightful.

My daddy is away on a trip in London, England.
So my mommy and me made this video to say hello.

August 30, 2008

I like to grab my mom's elbow when she's changing me and kiss it ever so gently and say 'elbow.' Then I smile coyly.
I like to say 'no' a lot, and sometimes 'No, no, no, no, no!'



I can say 'wow' and 'kitchen' and 'daughter' and 'popsicle' which is my mom's favorite word.
If you ask me what sound thunder makes I'll say "Boom" and if you ask me what sound a cow makes I'll say "moo."
I like to say 'bye bye' most of all.

This is my awesome dad, Drew. Sometimes I call my dad, Drew.
We're hangin' in Nia and Ian's pool.
Can you see in the background?
It's my new friend, Ilaria.
She looks EXACTLY like her dad.
The same as how I look exactly like Drew.

August 9th, 2008

This was my first time on a motorcycle.
It's important to always wear a helmet and drive safely because I know there are a lot of dicks on the road because my mom swears at them all the time when we're in the car.

July 25th, 2008

My mom's belly is getting very big. There's a baby in there. A baby brother or sister for me to play with and talk to. I like to kiss and hug her belly now. The baby will come just in time for Christmas so I will get an extra present this year. Good times for me!

I ride on my mom's back in the Ergo carrier. I used to ride at the front but she's getting so fat with that other baby that I've been forced to the back. It's okay though, you make sacrifices in life. Plus it's a pretty smooth ride.

July 20th, 2008

I'm just chilling up here in White Mountains.
I had a febrile seizure earlier this week and it was a very harrowing experience for my parents. They thought I was dying or something and rushed me to the hospital, but it was just a seizure brought on by a rapid spike in my body temperature, basically I got a fever really fast and my nervous system couldn't handle it and shut down causing a seizure. Anyway, they're not life threatening or cause any brain damage or anything. So it's all good, my peeps.
Also, I'm proud to say I'm finally (almost) 20 pounds, and now I ride in a forward facing seat in the car. Sweeeeeet!! I listen to my music and can drink a beverage, I have my own cup holder and everything. It's all good right now.

This is my BFF, Sadie, and I in Chicago. We have a great time together hanging out and doing stuff. In this picture we're playing ring-a-round-the-rosie in the water in Millennium Park.

This is my favorite cousin, Lola. She turned two today and I couldn't be there which makes me sad. I mean, look at her, she's obviously fun to be with, if not slightly loud at times!!

July 4th, 2008

If I could reach the computer I'd send out a message wishing you all a Happy July 4th weekend!!

June 28th, 2008

I love a little cream cheese with a bit of salmon spread on a cracker before dinner. Tasty.

June 22nd, 2008

This is my whole family that lives in Chicago.
Uncle Darren is very handsome and shaves his chest in the summer so he can get a better tan. He took me for my first ice cream cone and I had cotton candy ice cream with Noah. Aunt Lisa is awesome and took care of me and got me all kinds of toys to play with while I was visiting. I love her. Marlon is twelve and a great basketball player and Noah is nine and a great soccer player. I am about 16 months and I love bubbles.

June 21st, 2008

Today we went to the zoo in Chicago. It was my first time going to a zoo and we saw so many things like big beautiful butterflies and elephants and dolphins. This is a picture of my parents. Yep. Lucky me.

June 20th, 2007

We went to Chicago to visit Uncle Darren, Aunt Lisa and my cousins Marlon and Noah. It was super fun. They live right beside a big beautiful park and we went over there every day and went on the slides and titter totter and went swimming in the pool. The pool even had a slide which I could climb the stairs and go down all by myself.

One day we went to a different park to wait for Marlon while he went to the doctor "to have his ballzac looked at" is what he said. That park had a little climbing wall which was also super fun.

I loved Chicago. I wanna live there. But only in the summer, and only when it isn't hot as a ballzac.

This is a picture of me and Uncle Brant. I had a chance to walk a bit in his work boots. They say if you want to know someone walk a mile in his shoes. Well, there's a few things I could tell you about Uncle Brant but I won't go into it now.
I'm 16 months old now and I'm saying a lot of words and also signing a lot of words.
I started signing in Canada with my Auntie T and Mamie and Bubba. My first sign was probably "hat" and I think Bubba taught me that one, but then a lot of signs followed and now a lot of words too. Mamie taught me to say the word "key", and Auntie T taught me to sign "shoes" and a lot more. Here's a list of what I'm doing just so you know.
These are my signs- up, hat, eat, more, auntie T, thank-you, please, dog, milk, shoes, all done or no more, I love you, down, toothbrush, book and I wave goodbye.
I'm saying hi, hot, ah oh, mama, dada, bubba, key, cheese, baby, bye bye, no, nana (for banana),up, down, book, bubbles and I will kiss and hug you if you ask me to.
P.S. When I say bubbles it's almost the cutest thing you've ever seen in your life.

This is my mom's friend, Kate Haggis. She was very cuddly and I liked meeting her for the first time. I hope I get to meet her again really soon. xoxo Love you Kate.

I had another check-up today.
I'm now 18 pounds and 2 ounces and I'm 29 inches long.
Suck on that suckers!

Plus, I'm running now too and climbing stairs on my own and sometimes I walk down stairs on my own too, not crawl, WALK!

I love my dad. He's the best dad on the planet. But I'm worried about him. He farts so much. The part that worries me though, is that he doesn't think he does. And he also doesn't think they smell. My mom gags and plugs her nose and says, "Jesus, Drew!" when he leans on one cheek and squeezes out a super loud fart after dinner. But dad always says, "Don't play games. Mine don't smell." But I'm here to testify - they smell. You're pushing air out your bum hole past a back log of poo, so yes, dad, it smells. Like a plate of deviled eggs that were left out in the sun at the Easter Bunny Hop BBQ. He's delusional. He read in a book the other night that it's common and normal to fart 30 times a day and exclaimed, "Ah ha!" triumphantly, as if his behavior was reasonable and defensible.
But the sad part is dad farts 30 times AN HOUR! He just doesn't know it. I really believe that. I truly think he has no idea how much he farts and what an awesome problem it is and if he doesn't get help now then maybe mom and I won't be around for his fortieth birthday. Not because we've left him but because one of his toxic farts has finally killed us.

Soon I'll be out on the real road driving a real car with my real boyfriend.
Another 5,429 days to be exact.

My mom threw a huge fit today.
I was having my lunch, enjoying myself, and suddenly she comes in with,
"Hey! What are you doing?! Don't throw food on the floor! Why are you doing that?! Don't you realize how wasteful that is?! Don't you know the amount of energy that went into making this food?!"

Ah, no. I'm a baby.
Perhaps you've noticed an exclamation point after each question mark in the last paragraph, well, this is to indicate her tone of voice and how high and excited it was, and p.s. those questions she was asking me were rhetorical, I can only guess, because she sooo did not give me any time to respond.

Anyway, she went on,
" Now Finlay'll have to eat that food because to simply throw it in the garbage is unacceptable, we are lucky to even be able to afford good food, in some places it's a luxury!" and she went on and on, blah blah blah, okay I get it, but you know what? Why don't you start turning off some lights when you leave the room, or turn off the stereo when you go out or walk a few places instead of driving or, I don't know, but don't blame me for being wasteful when you, my lady, are guilty as charged.

February 19th, 2008

I went to the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at LACMA (or BCAM is what the hipsters are already calling it) opening weekend with Jayce and Kristen. Contemporary art is not unlike my diaper at times, full of shit, but then some of it was really good.
My favorites were the huge table and chairs (not sure who the artist was but it resonated with me) and the Warhol stuff. I wanna go back to see the Jean-Michel Basquiat stuff and then, where is Julian Schnabel? Get his stuff in there please.

I had my first year check up. I'm 28 inches tall and I weigh 16 1/2 pounds.
Grace, who works at Dr. Fleiss's office, says I'm skinny but that's okay.
I may just be America's next Top Model.

January 27th, 2008

I'm 11 1/2 months and I walked today! Yay me! I took 3 steps towards my mommy. She was so excited she ran and woke Daddy up. Later, I took one little step, sorta to the side, in the bathroom with Daddy. I plan to walk more later but that's it for now.
