Where did Mommy's babies go?!!?!?!?!?!

Michael - 3.5 years and Abby - 23 months

Fun In the Snow! - Jan. 11, 2007

It snowed again! This time it was a lot more than in November. Mommy bundled us up and we went outside to play. Like I said before it doesn't snow here very often and so mommy didn't have any gloves for us. That didn't stop me though. Abby didn't want to touch the snow though.

"Mom - this is a snow trumpet"

I told you I don't need a nap!

See...I know better than mommy...I don't need no stinkin' nap! I'm a big girl...I can do...uh...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Before

I really likes my new baby carriage - thanks Nana and DziaDzia!

"Beebees eat?"

My godpapa Uncle Pat got me the COOLEST book. Richard Scary's What Do People Do All Day. It is one of my favorites. See I didn't even want to take time to smile for Mommy.

I like all the books I got - especially the Mickey and Minnie Mouse books that Great-grandma Joan got us. I think one was for Michael and one was for me but I decided they were both mine and I take them EVERYWHERE with me...and I mean everywhere!

I am really enjoying my sea figurines set. It has lots of cool stuff in it - like this underwater boat.

After...the castle that Mommy and Daddy got me was the hit of the day...even Abby wanted to play with it.

Thank you to all of our loved ones for the wonderful gifts and cards. We feel so blessed to have you in our lives.

Preschool Christmas Concert - Dec. 14, 2006

On December 14 we had my school Christmas concert. It was a lot of fun until we started singing. Well you see...I was in the front row and there were a lot of people. I wasn't too keen with all the commotion. Once they had us switch and I was in the back row I felt much better and sang the songs and did all the hand motions. I still walk around singing "We WISH you a Merry Christmas..."Just me and Daddy! Daddy left the next morning for a long business trip to Singapore - he got home JUST in time for Christmas.

Hey Mom!

Don't look at me!

Too Loud!

Are we done yet?

Mommy was video taping the whole thing...she was laughing very hard and so the video is a little jerky! Despite my shyness I had a great time!

Fun With Markers. Dec. 12, 2006

As you can see I found Mommy's markers. hee hee!

Decorating Cookies...errrr...eating frosting... - Dec. 11, 2006

My friend Austin came over for a play date and we decorated cookies for Christmas! Well actually we mostly just ate frosting...it was yummy!

"Feed da Tiddy!" - Dec. 11, 2006

So I've decided that one of my jobs is to feed the tiddies (Meow and Luli). I also like to sit by the tiddy and keep him company while he eats. Mommy heard me rustling around over by the tiddy dishes and was going to tell me to leave the tiddies alone while they ate when she saw that Meow was eating OUT OF MY HAND!!! It is pretty cool. I like my tiddies...a few nights ago Mommy found Meow sleeping on my pillow with me during the night.

First Snow - Nov. 28, 2006

At the end of November we woke up to SNOW on the ground. It doesn't snow here very much and it was very fun. Abby kept running to the back window and saying "MOMMY! SNNNNNOOOW!"

Last Nap In My Crib - Nov. 26, 2006

On November 26, 2006 I took my last nap in my crib. Then Mommy and Daddy took the crib apart and unbunked the beds. Now I have my very own big girl bed!!! Mommy says she'll post pictures of our new beds when she finishes puting up the decorations.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2006!!!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

We want to send extra special Thanksgiving wishes out to Nana, DziaDzia and Uncle Pat in Alabama and Uncle John in Rome. We wish you all were here!

This Thanksgiving we spent the day at Grandma and Papa's house. We had 24 guests for dinner. We had a very special event happen on Wednesday...Aunt Amanda's boyfriend (who is visiting us for Thanksgiving) PROPOSED!!!

Our new Uncle Josh is the coolest! He does magic tricks and pulled a ball out from behind my ear! How'd he do that?!?!

Here is another picture of Uncle Josh and Aunt Mandy...because they are just THAT cute!

We also got to play with Uncle Jim and his girlfriend Lindsay. She is a 2nd grade teacher and lots n lots of fun. I wish she didn't live so far away though.

A Thanksgiving Feast!

Abby liked her carrots and ham the most!

Of COURSE I sat with Sara...she is my favorite ya know!

Abby LOVES to play with cousin Rachel.

I like it when cousin Joe reads me a story...he is taller than Aunt Susan now and comes up to my mommy's eyes!

It just wouldn't be a holiday without a picture of Daddy and cousin Katie.

Thanksgiving at preschool.

We had our Thanksgiving feast at preschool yesterday. It was very fun and I wore the neat headband I had made...I have a lot to be thankful for.

Time Out! zzzzzzzzz

Mommy and I were having a little battle of wills over me picking up my toys. So I was in timeout and when the timer went off Mommy came to get me and found me sound asleep...don't ask her what time I ended up waking up!

Rain Rain Go Away...

It started raining here in Oregon. It hasn't rained in a LONG time. I like the rain...so I pulled Abby's chair up to the back window so I could watch it while I had a snack.
