The Chronicles of Alan Chapter 7 and 8: Is there really too much of me?

Hello everyone,

Where have you been?? Just kidding, but I have missed you all. I’ve been a busy baby, that’s for sure. We have so much to catch up on I thought I’d give you a double feature blog! What’s that you say? 2 blogs in 1? Oh no my friends, it is I who love YOU that much 😉. Why don’t we start with my photoshoot?

There is this really sweet woman named Pam that likes taking photos. Apparently she has taken a lot of photos with mommy and daddy. They’re really amazing photos too, almost like she could be doing this for a living 😊 Mommy and Daddy surprised me and took me to a park one day, and wouldn’t you know, Pam was there with her camera! Not only that, but my other family members showed up too!! I asked Pam to take a photo with all of us. I must say, I make them look good!

Ever since I was born I have wanted this photo. All my favorite people together in one photo, how could life be better? I can’t wait for more opportunities like this. I’m one lucky kid!

Now I won’t bore you here with all the photos. No no, the blog would go on forever. But you can see the rest here:

I do have to give a special mention to my favorite photo from that day:

I’m having a hard time captioning this one. There’s a part of me that has the “Put a shirt on ya hippie!” type of look. Or it could be more “Get off my lawn, you stupid kids!” What do you think?

Next on our adventures, I got to go to this place that had a lot of animals and a lot of people. Let me tell you, it was a real zoo!

I got to see all kinds of crazy things. I got to see lions, and tigers, and bears! Oh my!! (Come on, you know I had to go there) Plus, I got to sit in this big bucket and go way up in the sky!! I was a little scared, but my mommy held me tight so it was ok.

When my mommy was little like me her mommy and daddy brought her here and took a photo with the flamingos just like this one. I know, mind-blowing right? We’re starting a trend!

Hey, this reminds me of a joke. Why do flamingos stand with one leg lifted? Well, if they lifted both legs they’d fall over 🤣

And finally, we’ll finish this chapter’s adventures with a crazy holiday! People like to get dressed up in costumes, and you can get free candy if you say these magic words “trick or treat!” Whoever thought of this is a genius!! Free candy just for saying a few words? All I’m missing is a magic wand and I could have defeated Voldemort! He was grumpy after all, maybe he just needed a Snickers!!

And as this is a double feature blog, you get to see me in two costumes! For daycare, I got to be a skeleton. I must say, as skeletons go, I look rather dapper:

My parentals showed me this cartoon about a kid who sits around a bunch of pumpkins while his friends go and use the magic words to get free candy. Except one kid kept getting a rock. Maybe he wasn’t using the words right, or maybe he would have been better off joining his friend sitting around the pumpkins. Not sure, but hopefully the next episode will wrap that storyline up.

This cartoon gave me a great idea for a family group costume. I’m glad I have amazing parents that go with this stuff. Aren’t I just the cutest Snoopy??

Well, my friends, it’s time for a nap and a snack. I’ll end this with a little teaser of what’s coming up in the next blog. I’ll leave you with 2 words:

VEGAS BABY!!!!!

Thank you for being here my friends ❤️
