Mealtime Fun!

It is fun to have a buddy to eat with.

Playing with Tupperware...

Mommy used to have this drawer locked because it closes really hard and she was afraid I would pinch my fingers. Well there is lots of cool stuff in this drawer so I figured how to get in it anyways (so Mommy gave up locking it) and I'm very careful not to pinch my fingers. I also still am not anxious to stand BUT I do like to sit on my knees.

New Clothes from Nana and Dzia Dzia!!!

Check out these new duds from Nana and Dzia Dzia. They are so soft and comfy. They are a size 18mo and I'm not even 12 mo yet!!! They are a little long but other than that they fit perfectly! I am growing up so fast!!!

Two Peas in a Pod...

This is my cousin Sara...she is one of my most favorite people in the whole world. She is just 2 months younger than me. Yesterday I had the whole day with daddy (mommy took Abby and went shopping) and he asked me what I wanted to do and I said "play with Sawa!" We like to get in a lot of trouble together and mommy says someday we will be Great-grandma and Vern (for those of you who understand what that means!)

This picture was taken on Christmas and my Dama and Papa's house. Sawa's other Grandma and Papa were supposed to come up to visit but Grandma Jeannie got sick and couldn't come. I had very nice Christmas clothes to wear but I refused to put them on. I kicked and screamed until Mommy gave up and said "what do you want to wear?" (she insists that I wear clothes!) and I picked up my favorite sweatshirt and hat. (didn't mommy say she wished I was twins? HaHa I sure showed her!)

Images of Christmases Past...

So Mommy has this picture on the window ledge behind the kitchen sink. It is one of her most favorite pictures of me. It was taken at my 1st Christmas in 2003. We spent that Christmas in South Carolina with Nana, Dzia Dzia and my godpapa Uncle Pat. She couldn't resist sharing my cuteness with all of you. She sometimes says I'm so cute she wishes I had been twins. Mommy is very silly sometimes.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2005

Merry Christmas!!! Santa thought we were very good this year because when we got up this morning there was a lot of cool presents under the tree. You can see that my gift from my godpapa Uncle Pat was a BIG HIT!!! It was Darth Tater - Mr. Potato Head! Daddy thought it was pretty cool too! Nana and Dzia Dzia got me a really cool piggy bank that I refuse to put down now. Daddy says I have to be extra extra extra careful with the piggy bank and I am! I got a big box of lincoln logs from Dama and Papa too! Mommy and Daddy said there are a few more presents I will get tonight (from my Godmama Aunt Fessy and maybe a couple others). I like Jesus' birthday - everyone gets presents!!!

I got lots of nice presents too! Uncle Pat got me some really cool blocks that I like to stack and put in my mouth! Nana and Dzia Dzia got me this stacking toy with very soft animals!!! How did they know that I LOVE soft cuddly things!!! Dama and Papa got me some stacking cups and those are super super cool!
We will post more later (especially pictures of us in our extra special Christmas clothes)!

This is the new car set Mommy and Daddy got me!

Blocks from Uncle Pat!

"T'was the night before Christmas..."

We got the boxes of Christmas presents from Nana and Dza Dza yesterday (since we won't get to see them this Christmas). There were two presents that said "OPEN NOW." So I got to open one and it was a really cool book all about Christmas. I kept saying "WOW WOW WOW" when I was opening it and then I made Daddy read it to me right away! It is SO cool! The other present was some very neat Christmas clothes for me and Abby. Mommy says she will post pictures of those when she puts them on us. But they are very pretty!

RIBS!

Nana and Dza Dza sent daddy and mommy a rib dinner from Sticky Fingers Resturaunt. They said that it was SO super yummy! They said the meat was perfect and the meat just fell off the bones! Thank you Nana and Dza Dza for making mommy and daddy so happy!

Pianoabby!

I like to play the piano and dance. Music is FUN!

Daddy Silliness

Daddy and i play a lot after dinner. Here I am showing him how to hold and pat a frog baby. I like animals a lot and one of my favorite toys is my farm set.

"Rock a bye froggie..."

See Daddy - you hold and rock like this!

SILLY DADDY! DON'T EAT THE FROG!!!

NO NO ABBY NO NO!

It is SO hard to be the big brother! I constantly have to police Abby and make sure she doesn't do anything she isn't supposed to. Mommy says that I'm not the sheriff - she says that only she and Daddy are the sheriffs. Abby has learned how to turn the TV on and off and how to change channels and how to make the volume REALLY LOUD and really quiet. I run after her and say "no no Abby no no" but she just looks at me and laughs. It is very frustrating when she doesn't obey!!!

"uh...what happened?"

Look At Me Stand!

Look at me go! I am such a big girl! Mommy is trying to get me to practice standing on my own. I don't like to stand - sitting is much better. Mommy wasn't sure how to encourage me to stand because Michael was standing 2 months. So Mommy thought that was normal!


So last night mommy stood me at my highchair and put some of my favorite snacks on it (Cheerios and VeggiePuffs) and I thought it was really fun to stand there and eat them.

Who is the crazy lady with the camera?!?!?!

Need Sleepy!

I was SOOOOOOOO sleepy last night. I usually go to bed at 8pm but I was snoring on the couch at 7pm! Mommy's best friend Jenney came over for a visit and she, mommy and daddy had a good time laughing at me.

I love my pjs - they have 'berde' dinosaurs on them...if you don't know "berde" it is green in Spanish! oh...mommy says it is verde...but mom! That's what I said!

Daddy and Michael (and baby) hang out on the couch!

Well as you can see Mommy finally got the new digital camera charged up! Daddy and I like to hang out on the 'touch.' I went and got my baby and a 'blanken' and went to cuddle with Daddy. I insisted that we both hold one of baby's hands.
