The "Chief Camper" returns

Did you all miss me? I was out being a big girl camper! I had so much fun! Grandma said I was the "chief camper." Mommy and I have not blogged since Monday!
On Tuesday it was rainy and Mommy was on call, so we did skip camping for one day. We went to Grandma's house to hang out! I saw Allison and Andrew. I tried to say baby and patted Andrew. He was sleeping in the bouncy. We went to Fricanos for pizza with all the aunts and uncles for dinner. I grinned at everyone and tried to beg for pizza. I didn't get any but Aunt Ellen let Ally eat two pieces. Only two, though! She got sick once when she ate more than that. At night we went back out to the campground to stay!
Wednesday was a damp and rainy day. We walked to the beach but couldn't sit out there. So Mom and I went downtown with her aunts Linda, Donna and Jeanne. We went to the Holland Peanut Store. It smelled so good! I squealed and begged for the bright candies but couldn't have any. Maybe next time?! Then we went to the Sandcastle toy store. I love to look around in there! There are bright toys to point at and stuffed animals to talk to.
Thursday started out damp and I was fussy at night so Mommy decided I should have my naps at home. I took long ones! Then we headed out to the campground. Grandma and Grandpa came to visit and make hobo pies. I was much better that night.
Friday was very windy! Mommy put me in my Burley jogger and we went out to the pier to see the big waves. She had to zip up the cover so I wouldn't get blasted by the sand. We couldn't sit out on the beach but it was very nice in the campground so we sat around and played. I pointed to a doggie and said "dog"! Mom and Aunt Donna heard me. It's my first word! Daddy is not so sure since he has not heard it yet. I saw so many dogs and was very excited every time. Friday night we packed everything up and went home. I had fun on my very first camping trip!
Today was Daddy's company picnic at Michigan's Adventure. I had a great time! It was too cold and cloudy to go to the water park and to my water slides so we stayed by the other rides. I rode the train, the carousel and the Ferris wheel! We had a yummy picnic in the afternoon with all the people who work at JCI. I ate some baked beans and pasta salad. I got my very own cup of ice cream for dessert! Mommy had to help me finish it but I did my best to eat it up! Soon after lunch it got colder and started to sprinkle so we went home.
I went with Mommy and Daddy to do errands and played around while they put camping stuff away. Then I got so sleepy! Mommy fed me and now Daddy is getting me all ready for bed. What a week I had!
