My Brother!!

I'm going to have a baby brother! Here's his profile... ...So I asked my brother how things were going in there... The technician said something about indisputable proof?

New Shoes!

Do you like my new shoes? I think they're purdy... Some people were asking for some photographs of mommy's growing belly - here they are:

Walkin' Around

Here I am, walking from mommy to Grammie. I can take about 15 steps now without falling! Mommy and Grammie were clapping at me because I was doing such a good job - so I started clapping at me too! In this picture, I am clapping AND walking! Multitasker extraordinaire! Then I spent some time hanging on to mommy's pant legs, playing peek-a-boo between her legs.

Abilene Zoo

Mesmerized by the giraffes... I just loved the lions! What the heck is that thing?? More giraffes! What a fun day at the zoo with Grammie and Mommy!

Kindermusik with Grammie

Here I am with Grammie and Mommy in my Kindermusik class. We get to sing, dance, play and make music. I look forward to my Kindermusik class all week! Here, Grammie is swinging me up high!! Blanket hammocks...Mackenzie wasn't happy when her turn was over - blanket hammocks are so much fun!!

Strike a Pose

My pretty party dress...with a special wet spot from dinner. :)

My New Carseat

Lookie at my new big girl car seat! OK...so how do I get into this thing? Maybe it's supposed to go something like this...? AHH! With a little help from mommy, we figured it out. Now we've just got to put it in the car... Here we go...ready for my first big girl road trip!! Yippiee!!!

Special Delivery

TA DA! Look what a special package arrived in the mail today! ME! Mommy said she was a little concerned that such an item would arrive "some assembly required..." Actually, mommy said it's a package of birthday presents for me from my Grandma and Jackie! I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO OPEN THEM!!!

How do I get out of here??

Fiesta Time with Dora!!

Look at my new toy! It's a big fort with balls inside to throw around. It has a big red ball with a jingle bell hanging from the ceiling that I can bop bop bop, and peek-a-boo windows in the sides so that I can see mommy and daddy while I play. I played and played in my new toy today, until I wore myself out! I was so tired, I passed out in my crib faster than you can say - sleepytime! Here, daddy is playing with me. I especially love to crawl in and out of my new fort, over the inflatable sides, but that takes a lot of work! Peek-a-boo! I see you!

Cupboard Rummaging

Here I am, making a mess in the cupboard. I walked over here, hanging onto walls and furniture, from the living room!

Disney World, Here I Come!

Daddy and mommy just told me that we're going to Disney World this summer! I can't wait! Since Grammie and Grampy sent me my very own suitcase, I thought I'd better get a head start on my packing...I've got my stuffed doggie, my favorite top, a few good books, some plastic vegetables...wonder if there's enough room for my swing? Mommy said that since I can walk now, I can bring my own carry-on - this stuff will definitely keep me busy on the plane!!

LASAGNA!

Finally, mommy found a food that I like enough to feed it to myself - LASAGNA! I made a pretty mess, but MAN it was yummy!

Under the Table

I crawled across the room, under the table. Now I'm trying to stand up under the table...but I'm too tall!!! Can you believe I took my first steps today?! Mommy wasn't prepared, so she didn't have a camera ready - but it's true! There were lots of witnesses! I'm such a big girl. Guess I'd better just goof off sitting down, instead.

Helping Around the House

Here I am, helping to sweep the kitchen and clean the house before daddy gets home from Las Vegas, tonight.

Master of the Sippy Cup

I can't believe how much better it works this way!

Walking Around

Daddy's helping me learn how to walk. I'm getting better and better at this. Sometimes, I just like to hold onto things and take a stroll around the house all on my own. Don't blink - I move fast!

The Real St. Patty's Day Celebration

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Two little leprechauns! The treasure of two pots of gold...what a find! Mommy and Aunt BK are very silly...they made Courtney and me sit in pots of gold and put weird hats on our heads so they could take pictures. I do suppose we are cute, however. Are you speaking to me? Top of the mornin' to ye! Sometimes, I don't like to sit still long enough for mommy to take my picture. What's that, a camera? May I have it please?

Aunt BK's Birthday

We got to celebrate Aunt BK's birthday, too. Mr. Arthur and Ms. Marvella were there, and we all dressed up in our St. Patty's Day getup - early!

Uncle Mark's Birthday

We all celebrated uncle Mark's birthday together at Grammie and Grampy's house. Here, cousin Brooke is helping her daddy to open his presents. That afternoon, cousin Brooke also fell asleep on Grammie - it was kinda cute. Here I am, practicing walking with Grandma. Here we are - all the ladies sitting pretty in the living room. Three generations of ladies in each direction (plus two on the way)!

Down Time with Grampy

Here I am, hanging out with Grampy on a Saturday afternoon. How relaxing!
