I Was Mad At My Big Mummy

Hi, it's me, Klu, and I was mad at my Big Mummy. I was mad at her cuz she SAID that the next time Mr. Kermit (Huh. Huh. I just called him Mr. Kermit cuz he likes green. He's a grownup, so I can't tell you his real name, cuz grownups all want to be 'nonymous on my blog.)...um, so she SAID that the next time Mr. Kermit came over, me and the other kids could make him dinner. (We like Mr. Kermit a lot, cuz he talks to us and knows we're real. Some grownups don't know we're real.) So me and the other kids had it all decided what we were gonna make for him. We had lots of long 'scussions, (a 'scussion is when you talk 'bout something to decide) cuz we had to decide between pancakes poured in the shape of the letters of our names, or mac n' cheese with hot dog pennies. We decided on mac n' cheese with hot dog pennies cuz pancakes make us a little wild. (From eating all that sugar, you know.) And we wanted to behave ourselves for Mr. Kermit.

But Big Mummy didn't do what she said. She 'vited Mr. Kermit over yesterday, and Auntie E and Mr. Gumbles (that's not his real name, either, cuz he's a grownup so he's being 'nonymous) were there too, and Big Mummy forgot all 'bout lettin' me and the other kids make dinner. So she made some grownup food that had a French name (it tasted good, but I didn't want to eat it cuz I was mad at my Big Mummy).

I was mad at Big Mummy all evening, but all the grownups were doin' some talkin' and some laughin' and stuff, so she didn't notice. But when she tucked me in to bed, she said, "Klu, are you okay?" And then I started to cry cuz I really wanted to make mac n' cheese with hot dog pennies for Mr. Kermit. Big Mummy 'pologized for forgetting all 'bout what she said. And she said Mr. Kermit would probably come back and have dinner with us soon (cuz he has to fix our 'puter again) and we could make him really special homemade mac n' cheese, not just the kind from the blue box. So I stopped crying and gave my Big Mummy a hug and went to sleep.

That's all.
Love,
Klu the Bear

It's A Good Thing Auntie E Came Back With My Camera

Hi, it's me, Klu. Me and Blu are havin' the 'citing-est day ever. It's a good thing Auntie E came back with my camera. The neighbors' tree is gettin' cut down! It's a big tree. And there's lots of people doin' some helpin' to make it get cut down.

First there's the man with the chainsaw. He's way up in the tree, doin' some cuttin'. He climbed up the tree like he was doin' some rock-climbin', but I don't think I'd like to do some rock-climbin' with a chainsaw.

Then there's the man on the ground doin' some lowerin'. He has a rope and he lowers the big branches after the man doin' some cuttin' cuts them.

Then there's the two men on the roof of the garage, doin' some stuff. Mostly they're doin' some standin' around, but sometimes they do some shovin' when the man doin' some lowerin' lowers a branch. They shove the branch so it doesn't land on the garage.

There's a chopper machine in the alley. I can't wait till they do some choppin'. Here's some pictures of me and Blu, doin' some watchin'. You can tell that I'm me, and Blu is Blu cuz his head is fatter than mine. (He's got more stuffin'.)




I'll post some more photos later. I've gotta get back to my watchin' now.

Love,
Klu

Why My Name Is Klu

Hi, it's me, Klu the Bear.

A nice lady named Manda wrote me a comment (I like comments a lot) and asked why my name was Klu. She said I could write 'bout that till my Auntie E comes back with my camera. Auntie E is comin' back today. That makes me so happy I feel squiggly inside. I hope she took lots of pictures of her friend with my camera. I can't tell you 'bout her friend, cuz he's a secret. Maybe I'll tell you more soon. Huh. Huh.

When the nice lady named Manda asked me why I was named Klu, I was confused. I thought I was named Klu cuz Klu was my name. My name's always been Klu. But I asked my Big Mummy, and she said I didn't have a name when I was born. Huh. I think that's funny. But it makes me feel a little weird, too. It's hard to 'magine me without a name. Even when I was a baby bear. So then she told me the story of why my name is Klu.

Back when Auntie E and my Big Mummy lived in Scotland, my Big Mummy 'dopted Bruno. She loved him so much that Auntie E decided to 'dopt somebody too. So she 'dopted Blu. Blu comes from Ikea, Sweden (me, too). Here's the link for Ikea so you can see where we come from. Me and Blu and Samuel and all the other bears that come from Ikea, our last name is Blund. I don't know why, but that's just our name. I think it's a Swedish name. So when Auntie E 'dopted Blu, she got to name him. (I didn't know this till she told me. I thought his name was always Blu.) Because she was 'doptin' Blu, he was gonna get to have a new last name. (That's how 'doption works, you know.) But she wanted Blu to have his Swedish heritage. (Heritage is something you're born with.) So she decided to name him Blu.

Then Auntie E moved to 'Merica, and Blu (and Roma and Bianca, too, cuz they were 'dopted by then) moved with her. Big Mummy and Bruno missed them something fierce. And Bruno was really lonely, cuz Big Mummy was away at work all day, and he didn't have the other kids to play with. So Big Mummy decided to do some more 'doptin'. So she 'dopted me, Klu. I didn't know this till Big Mummy did some 'splainin' just now, but my name wasn't Klu when she 'dopted me. I was just, um, Mr. Blund. Huh. Huh. That's really funny. Mr. Blund. Big Mummy wanted me to have my Swedish heritage too, but she couldn't name me Blu cuz that was Blu's name. So she named me Klu.

And that's why I'm Klu.

I like comments a lot. I'm glad the nice lady named Manda wrote that comment, cuz otherwise I never would have known why I was named Klu.

I can't wait till Auntie E gets home!

Love,
Klu the Bear

Oh, Something I Forgot To Say

Um, it's me, again, Klu. Auntie E, I forgot to say something. Please bring my camera back, cuz it's boring to write posts without photos. If I had my camera, I'd take a picture of Blu, and then you could decide if he looked like he'd been doin' some cryin' or not.

Love,
Klu

Auntie E, We Miss You Something Fierce

Hi, it's me, Klu, and this is a message for Auntie E from all the kids. Auntie E, we miss you something fierce. We don't have as much fun when you're not here. Wilb'rina just put her head in my lap and started to cry, cuz she misses you. (She said she'd feel better if Big Mummy would let her have another piece of toffee, but Big Mummy said no.) Blu looked like he'd been doin' some cryin' earlier, but when I asked him 'bout it, he said he was a boy bear, and boy bears don't cry. But that's kinda wrong, cuz I'm a boy bear and I cry sometimes. And Samuel's a boy bear, and he cries all the time. (Blu said that was cuz Samuel's just a baby bear.) Please come home, Auntie E.

Love,
Klu
Wilb'rina
Bruno
Janna Ganna
Roma
Bianca
Blu
(and Big Mummy too)

I Can't Post Any Photos

Hi, it's me, Klu.

I can't post any photos for a few days, cuz Auntie E took my camera. She went to visit her friend. So maybe I'll write some ph'losophy, 'cept I can't think of none. Me and the other kids had to help Big Mummy clean the house today. Auntie E left kinda like a tornado. She was doin' some spinnin' around. Spinnin' around makes the house really messy. I'll think 'bout some ph'losophy and write it later. Right now I'm gonna do some playin' before Big Mummy notices and makes me do some more cleanin'.

Love,
Klu

Happy Balentine's Day

Hi, it's me, Klu. Um, I didn't feel good yesterday, so I didn't get to finish all my Balentine cards. I felt kinda cranky 'bout it this morning. I got out all the markers and the paper and stuff, but I had so many Balentines to make that I didn't know where to start. I already made one for Auntie E and for Hannah G and for Uncle Captain J and Auntie Ch and for my Big Mummy, but I still had to make one for Roma and one for Blu and one for Wilb'rina and one for Bianca and one for Janna Ganna and one for Bruna and one for Sammi and one for Tibbi and one for Tuffy and one for Miss Kate and one for my friend Jack and one for Mr. Cr (even though he called me a 'weird little guy') and one for Auntie Linseed and one for Eric and one for all my fans and, um, one for my other friends. I got mad cuz I didn't want to be sick yesterday. I wanted to make all my Balentines.
I threw the pink marker on the floor (it still had the cap on) cuz I was mad. My Big Mummy heard me throw the pink marker on the floor cuz I was mad. She asked me why I was mad, and I told her it was cuz I wanted to finish all my Balentines yesterday, but I didn't feel good. Then I started to cry cuz I had so many Balentines to finish. Big Mummy gave me a hug, and said maybe I could make a nice Balentine and put it on my blog for everybody. So I stopped cryin' and made a Balentine for everybody. Here's a picture of my Balentine for everybody. It says, 'Be mine, Balentine.' Huh. I like Balentine's Day.

Love,
Klu
