Some pic's...

I love raspberries!
I don't hang out in here very often, and I don't like to stay in my Jolly Jumper for very long, but I'm finally starting to jump!

Daddy's briefcase is fun because it slides a bit, and I 'walk' it across the room.

My absolute favorite place to stand, especially when I can watch Daddy and Cali in the backyard.

Daddy just can't resist my sweet face looking out at him... or all my loud banging on the window to try and get his attention!

Crazy Happy Noises

I had a great time watching Daddy and Cali chase each other around the backyard last week. By the way, the noises I'm making are 'happy' noises, and I make them all the time. Also, I had an accident at daycare two days in a row, so these too-small-overalls are all JoAnne and Sandy could find to put me in.

Finally getting the hang of this thing!

Just standin' around...

Here is the first time Mommy and Daddy ever saw me stand up. I'd been doing it for a little while at daycare, because they have really great stuff I could grab with my hands.

First time Mommy and Daddy found me standing up in my crib!

Swiss Relatives

Mommy, Daddy, cousin Jordan and I went to Omi and Opa's farm for Thanksgiving, and hung out with Onkel Albert and his grandson Thomas who were visiting from Switzerland! It was a beautiful day, so we spent lots of time outside... and I sucked on lots of leaves.
We went for a walk at Belwood Lake before dessert. Daddy liked walking ahead to have time with his girls.

Jordan and Mommy were slow, because Mommy kept getting rocks in her shoes.

A last visit with Onkel Albert and Thomas the day before they left.

We decided to join them for lunch and I had my first experience with a Chinese buffet.

Onkel Albert knows more English than he let on when Mommy and Daddy were in Switzerland, and he kept saying I was a 'happy girl' and that I had 'pretty blue eyes'. I thought he was pretty funny.

I was getting pretty overdue for a nap, but Daddy kept me entertained and from getting too grouchy before everyone finished eating.

Pumpkin Patch

Mommy and my cousin Jordan took me over to Mossborough Market on the Thanksgiving Weekend to play in the pumpkin patch. It took some work to keep me happy, but they managed to get some nice pictures.

Alright, I've had enough with all these pictures. I'm outta here!

My New Mittens

It's awfully cold heading off to daycare early in the morning, so Mommy and Daddy got me to try out my new mittens when playing outside one day. Notice my cute rosey cheeks!

Swimming

Mommy and I started swimming lessons on Friday!

Splish splash, I was taking a bubble bath!

Daddy had been trying to find baby-friendly bubble bath, with no luck until yesterday! Here I am staring at the bubbles the first time I had a bubble bath.
I leaned forward to get a toy, and got bubbles all over my face.

All rinsed!

Like Daddy, like daughter... finding time to read no matter where I am!

Bunny Jacket

My Aunt Kris got me the gorgeous little jacket when I was born, and I love how soft and fuzzy it feels! It even has a tiny little bunny tail on the back of it.
Daddy took Cali and I for a walk with me in my bunny jacket, and later that day I wore it to church. Daddy was embarrassed at first for some reason, but after people kept telling him how cute I was he calmed down a bit.

Wakey wakey!

Every now and then Mommy and Daddy have to wake me up at 6:30 in the morning, but I'm usually awake on my own before that. Here I am, sleeping away with my bum in the air, one morning last week when they needed to come get me up.
Daddy's holding me while I try and wake up and open my sleepy eyes.

Still feeling a little groggy, and check out my bed-head!

Cuteness!

I love hanging out in the front entryway with Cali, especially if I can suck on some shoes for a few minutes before Mommy and Daddy catch me. I've started cuddling up to blankets, especially when I'm sleepy, and love cuddling up with Cali's doggie blanket or a towel if Mommy's folding them. In this picture, I scooted over to Cali and used her tail as a blanket to curl up with.

New Hat

Grammie got me this hat to go with a new little fall jacket she brought me. I didn't like it much at first... maybe because I didn't want it to mess up my hair.
Ah, now I'm used to it and enjoying a nice walk with my family.

I like to periodically look back and check in with Mommy and Daddy when I'm in my buggy.

Waiting for my bath

Mommy and Daddy usually do a little tag-team for bathtime. Mommy undresses me while Daddy gets the tub ready. On this night, Daddy was moving a little slow, so I played in the living room in my diaper while I waited.

By the way, I say 'da da da' all day long!
