Last Day at Disney

On the last day we went to Disney World, I got more brave and took my picture with Minnie Mouse. I was even wearing my Minnie dress. I'm not scared of big head characters any more. They are all really nice.

We finally saw a Nemo show that I was talking about all week. I kept telling Mommy and Daddy, "Nemo at Disney World". It had a lot of fish and turtles. And then bubbles were flying around and me and Riley were jumping and popping them. I had a lot of fun at Disney World.

Playing at Pooh's

We rode a Winnie the Pooh ride. I really got into these ride things. It is fun to climb in the cars and ride away. The Pooh ride was a weird ride about Pooh getting some honey. He really likes his honey. Almost as much as I like chocolate milk.

I don't know why but I am making a face like Mommy is trying to make me eat some cabege. But the best part was that there was play stuff outside the ride. Here are some pictures of me and Riley playing around with some karets.

Funny Glasses

We have seen some shows where you have to put on funny glasses. We saw Ariel and the Muppets. And you had to wear them on the Toy Story ride. I told Mommy she was not wearing them right. She is supposed to wear them like this.

Had to Nap

Well, I wasn't going to nap this week. But I was really bratty last night so Mommy and Daddy made me come to the hotel and take a nap today. We are going back to the Hollywood place tonight but I had to take a nap first. We went there this morning. We watched some Belle and Ariel shows. It rained on us in the Ariel show. I didn't know it could rain inside a house!

This picture is when I went on the Toy Story ride with Daddy. You wear funny glasses and get to shoot at stuff. It was really fun.

Big Head Characters Are Scary

Riley likes taking pictures with the characters but I think that they are scary. I didn't want anything to do with Tigger and I closed my eyes when Pooh came to our table.

Daisy tried to hug me when we were eating lunch and I tried to hide in Mommy's lap.

Mommy figured out that the only way to get me to take pictures with them for her to get in the picture and hold me. Then I started to do a little better. We took some pictures with some squirrels and I wasn't too scared but I wouldn't get as close as Riley.

At breakfast this morning, I gave Oso a hug and I danced with the Little Einsteins. Mommy and Daddy couldn't believe it. I'm getting more brave.

I hope that I am brave enough to take a picture with Minnie Mouse because she is really my favorite character. We'll see.

I'm at Disney World!

It took a long time in the car to get here but I am at Disney World. Our first day we went and did some rides and watched the Toy Story people dance in the streets. It is pretty fun here. There is so much stuff to do that I'm going to see how many days I can go without taking a nap!

Luciana at 2 1/2 Years

Hello. I am two and half years old today. I don't know how to put up 2 and a half fingers yet. It is hard enough to put up just 2 fingers to show people how old I am now. I guess I have to learn how to do half fingers now.

What am I like at 2 1/2?

Well, it looks like I am left handed. I like use my left hand for using my fork and for coloring. I love to color these days. Riley doesn't like me to color on her pages because she thinks I mess them up. I think I'm good at coloring. Mommy and Daddy always tell me all my colored pages are really good. Purple is my favorite color of crayons and for everything.

I have always been a big fan of Minnie Mouse but I like Dora just about as much these days. I have some Dora socks and Dora dolls. I like watching Dora on TV too. I wasn't into TV as much as Riley when I was younger. But now I watch it very closely and answer all of the questions. I yell when I see Swiper and I know that you need to ask The Map to see where to go.

I am obsessed with washing my hands. If Mommy and Daddy don't watch me closely I will wash my hands for 10 minutes straight. Playing with the squirty soap and water is fun.


I'm also still obsessed with Mommy's iPod. She still hasn't bought me my own yet. And you can also see from my shirt in this picture that I just washed my hands again!

These days I have more thoughts about my clothes. Sometimes I have to wear my Minnie jammy shirt or my green Dora socks even if Mommy doesn't think it looks good with my outfit. I did make Daddy let me wear my Hello Kitty rain boots when it wasn't even raining the other day.


My hair is finally getting a little longer. I still have not had a haircut yet but now I can wear pony tails and piggie tails. Daddy puts my hair in piggie tails when I go to Alice's house. But I usually pull them out and have crazy hair when Mommy picks me up.

I know it is hard to believe that I'm halfway to another birthday. My favorite book right now is "Where's is Baby's Birthday Cake?" I like looking for the cake and know I can sing "Happy Birthday" to the baby too. Now it is only half a year until my birthday!

Colors of Storm Watching

There was rain and wind and little ice balls flying around outside today. We were in the basement watching the man talk about it on TV. I wanted to watch a movie but Daddy said that we couldn't so we just played with toys.

I was practicing learning my Sesame Street colors. Elmo is red. Abby is pink. Ernie is orange. Then I saw all of the colors on TV. I ran up to the TV and pointed out "Pink Pink!". I showed Mommy and Daddy where green was too. Then I was looking at the TV and I said "Where Ernie?". (I was looking for orange)

After playing for awhile, we went upstairs. We were lucky that it was not bad at our house.
