Grammy's Visit

I woke up from my nap to find Grammy at my house. We had a fun playdate together. Pappy is coming soon...Hurry Pappy...I miss you!

Splish Splash!

Ducky and I love bathtime!

My First Cracker!

CHOMP!

Shady Lady

New View

Well, I got my "big" surprise tonight at bedtime. My mattress is moved WAY down and I am STUCK! As you can see, I can just barely peek out above my bumpers. I guess I'll just make myself comfortable because I'm not going anywhere. Good night....sleep tight....don't crawl out of your crib!

Trapped

Last night I gave Mommy and Daddy quite a scare. They came to check on me long after I was "supposed" to be asleep. They found me pushing my bumper pads down and holding onto my crib almost peeking over the edge. It was really quite a view! To say the least, my exit plan didn't work. As a result, I ended up in my pack-n-play....not near as much fun , I might add. On top of that, they covered the sides with pillows to make me sleep this afternoon. Mommy says I will have a whole new view tonight from my crib. Daddy is going to lower my mattress so there will be NO escaping. At least I can say I tried.

Bath Bunny

Here I am after a nice warm bubble bath. I love wearing my pink bunny towel . Life is good.

Carrots, Bananas, and Toes

I've just started taking "in between" bites during mealtime. Here's how it goes.... a tatse of carrots, a nibble of banana, and my favorite, a slurp of toe. You really should try it...I think you'd love it.

Ava, The Belly Dancer

I love to twist on my tummy. I can spin in circles to reach my toys.....pretty soon I might be crawling. Watch out world, here I come!

Story Time

I love "My Granny's Purse" book. There are so many cool things to take out and investigate. Mommy loves this book because she loves all kinds of fun bags and purses. Silly Mommy.

Eight Months Old

Today is my 8 month old birthday. Mommy made brownies to celebrate. Just for fun, here is a picture of me just a few days after I was born.

Snacking

Everything that goes in my hands ends up in my mouth. FYI-socks even taste pretty good!

Catch Of The Day

Okay, back to this dog situation. I may not have a dog...but I do have a trout. Who would have thought a baby girl would have a trout in her crib...just ask my Daddy. It's a father/daughter bond. It is a cute trout...a little slimy though, for a pet.

I Love Dogs!

I met a new doggy friend named Rosco. Mommy's friend, Marilyn just got him and boy is he ever cute! I am discovering that I love dogs -- but the only dogs in my house are on Baby Einstein...MMM...not quite as exciting. My friend Jamey has a puppy named Norah...I am a tad bit jealous. I wonder if I will ever have a dog?

My New Do

Daddy used his fly tying material to make me stylish for St. Patrick's Day. Silly boys!

Let's Play

I love this game! Papa and William build a tower and I knock it down. Woo-hoo!

Dallas Blooms!

We took a trip to the Dallas Arboretum to see the "Dallas Blooms Festival" flowers. Mommy's favorite flower is a Tulip and they were EVERYWHERE! When I grow up, Mommy promises to take me for tea and scones with the ladies. Mum bought me a painted bunting audobon bird that makes beautiful chirps.

Baby For Sale

William went shopping at his house and found a sweet little baby named Ava. We're sorry William, this baby is out of your price range.

We Love Texas

William just got a "Texas" big boy room. Here we are sitting on his bed.

Aunt Betsy

We had a special playdate with Mommy's friend, Betsy. I also met a polka-dot puppy named Allie Anne. We had so much fun!

A Visit With Grandma "Great"

We took a little trip to Houston to see some relatives I had never met before. I spent some special time with my Great Grandmother Marcette, she is my Mum's Mommy.

Cartoons and Cousins

I have discovered the excitement of animation! William and I had "cousin time" as we watched a cartoon together.

Spa Treatment

I love to take baths in Mum's sink. Spa treatment is 5 star at this place!

Mum & Papa's House

Here I am at Mum & Papa's house. Let the fun begin!

Earning My Wings

Mommy and I went on a special trip together. We flew on a great big airplane to see my Mum, PaPa, Aunt Sissy, Uncle Craig, and Cousin William. I bounced on Mommy's lap the whole time and looked at all the tiny things below me. The nice airplane lady gave me my very own wings for being an excellent junior co-pilot.

Strolling "Big Girl" Style

Here I am sitting forward facing in my stroller. There is so much more to look at when Mommy and Daddy take me for walks! Being 6 months old really does have its perks! Yippee!

Snow Baby

I woke up this morning and saw my first real snow! To celebrate, Mommy made snow icecream (none for me) and we had a family pajama day. Woo-Hoo!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Will you be mine?

Charlie Browm Saves The Day

I got my "BIG" six month shots today. Both Mommy and the nurse were proud of me being so brave. As a reward, I wore a Charlie Brown bandaid all day long to make me feel better! I came home and practiced sitting up.... what a life!
