we went to another party only this one was for christmas and it was all dressed up and everything. bg had on this tie and mj dressed up too and there was like only one other baby, baby emma, you know, i went and saw her a buncha months ago when she was just born, okay you might not remember but i like talked about it back here. it was okay, i met a lot of new fans and people passed me around and stuff. but there weren’t any cheerios or wagon wheels like at that party for will and i know this is supposed to be fancy and all but if you do not have cheerios you do not have a party.

we went to this restaurant tonight that was all fun and loud and i totally had a good time. i was on the end of the table because i am always on the end but i never have to pick up the check. anyway mj brought this placemat that was all stuck to the table and had sesame street stuff on it and also food that she put on it like these muffins with peas in them. have you had muffins with peas.7 they are the best. they taste all sweet and muffiny and i hardly even notice that there are peas in it. i even eat those peas.

i did not eat the green beans however. they came without a tasty muffin shell and i will not eat them. bg pushed some in my mouth and i pushed them right back out.

the floor was all dirty and stuff. people were eating peanuts and dumping the shells everywhere and how come that is okay when mj and bg get all mad eyes at me when i drop stuff on the floor like the spoon i was playing with.7 this is totally unfair. and why can’t i have peanuts anyway.7 the shells look very tasty.

oh yeah it was one of my fans birthday. happy birthday fan./

so mj got sick again because she is weak and has probably passed bad genetics on to me, woe is me, and then bg got sick because he too is weak and i might as well pick out the convalescent home where i will spend the rest of my days wheezing in an iron lung because i am sick too with the snot and the sneezing. why couldn’t i have parents who had antibodies or something.7

i went to another birthday party. it is like everyone i know is having a birthday. this is the third one. this one was for my friend will. i would say hi to will but i do not think he reads this journal. he’s smart and all but he is not very interested in technology or the rise of online diaries enabled by technology such as livejournal.

anyway we had cheerios and kix which are like cheerios only puffy and wagon wheels and a little bit of cake although not too much. and there were some other friends like mackenzie and also new babies i did not know who were mostly older than me except for this one who was like five weeks old and very boring.

will got a lot of cool presents and i got to chew on some of them. bg left early but mj and i got to stay and play and there was some duke basketball on for a while before we left.

it was a busy day./

now mj is sick. i swear my parents are like the sickliest people i know. mj is all cough and wheeze and not wanting to move much. good thing i was off at school today which was kinda fun but tiring and now i’m totally going to take a nap.

i am sorry i was going to write and all but this mouse chewed through bg’s computer cord and he stopped using it and missy law’s computer was way too high for me to reach so i could not write.

yes there was this mouse or maybe several mice and he ate some of our bread and he slept in my clothes one night. not the clothes i was wearing but the clothes in my dresser drawer. i know mj used to have a mouse or something as a pet but ew.

bg got much better because i saw him swimming one day in the ocean. that must have been scary. when i went down to the waves i did not like them. the dry sand is fun to stand on but the wet sand is icky and that ocean totally wants to eat me. i bet it got so big by eating babies too.

it rained a lot on wednesday which is the day we went to buy me some clothes at some nearby stores and that was weird. that we went when it was raining i mean. and there were so many people at the beach that i never got put down and that was great. someone was always playing with me. i should have a group of fans that follows me wherever i go to play with me.

can i take the ocean back with me.7 i don’t want to play in it or anything but like the sound is nice when i am sleeping.

and i think i will ask bg and mj for a little brudder or sister but i do not know if they will like that because i am so much kid that i think i am like five or six kids in one.

we are now at the beach. the trip was long and there was a lot of rain so i slept through as much of it as i could.

the beach is fun. there is this whooshing noise all the time and the sea keeps turning over and over and it’s really cool. the only bad thing is that bg got sick from something and he didn’t come down to play with me until almost like noon. he is such a slacker.

i am now sick. i think i got a cold from bg and mj and i wish they had just kept it to themselves. this makes my nose runny and i get all sleepy but it is hard to sleep with the wheezing and the snoring.

it’s okay though because my fans came to visit. mama ray and papa ray are here because we are going on a trip this week for thanksgiving. it is down to the beach and i hear that the salt air is good for you so maybe it will clear up my cold.

i have been thinking about dieting after yesterday. i mean it is all well and good to say i am not gaining weight as fast as i would otherwise but i am still gaining weight. the doctor says i am fine but he does not have to deal with the fame that i have and knowing that you might get fat and then your picture gets taken and it ends up on the cover of parenting today or something.

anyway it looks like the big diet thing is this thing called atkins. you can eat all of the meat and vegetables which is good because i really like my beef and carrots. but you can’t eat carbs which evidently means no cheerios. and no goldfish. i just learned how good goldfish taste.

maybe this dieting thing is a bad idea.

i have invented a new exercise routine i call the bounceTM. it is very important that you refer to it as the bounceTM because i am going to trademark it so no one can steal it from me. it is important enough that i am willing to use the caps lock key so i can type TM.

anyway the bounceTM is a collection of exercises for keeping you fit. the first big exerecise is to pull yourself into a standing position and while holding onto something bounce up and down by bending your knees a little.

for your butt the exercise is to sit down and do butt circles. this is where you sit on the ground and then move your feet so you circle around and around without actually going anywhere.

this is leaving out the upper body so there are two exercises for that. one is to flail your arms up away from your body and then back down towards your tummy. the other is to crawl around places mostly by dragging yourself by your arms. you can use your knees and feet some in the crawl but not too much.

i have been doing these exercises for a while now. i went to the doctor yesterday and now i weigh almost twenty pounds which is more than before and you might think that means the bounceTM does not work. but i am a growing boy and think how much more i would weigh without the bounceTM./

okay, now all of you have to try this out. let’s bounceTM./

[i trademarked let’s bounceTM too because that is how all of my exercise sessions start by having the woman in a leotard say that.]
