Papa's Squishy Face

This is the face that Papa and I make to each other when we visit.  SO CUTE!

Merry Christmas 2010

Christmas Cards

Here is a sample of our Christmas cards that we sent out. Only slightly different.  Pretty, don't you think?

Nana's Walking Stick

Christmas Pictures

City Of Camas Christmas Tree Lighting

Cocoa, lights, TONS of people, little shops, and candy canes.  That pretty much sums up the time that Mommy, Nana, Daddy, and I had tonight.  It was magical!

Mmmm.....Spaghetti

Happy Holidays!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We shared Thanksgiving with the Hood's side of the family this year.  The turkey was delicious!

I Love Snow!

The snow came early this year!  Thanksgiving isn't even until Thursday!

I Caught A Bug

Not a creepy crawly.  The flu. 

Halloween 2010

Halloween was great! We spent the first half of the day watching the Seattle Seahawks game and then Holly,Bippe,and Ahna met up with us to do some trick-or-treating. We looked absolutely adorable in our flower and ladybug costumes. We went to Nana and Papa Hood's, Grandma and Grandpa Castellani's, and Aunt Lori's work for goodies.

Carving Pumpkins & Bath Time

Oh my goodness. What a mess! Holly, Bippe, and Ahna came over to carve pumpins with us. We enjoyed getting all gooey and slipping around the grimy floor. Afterward, our Mommy's gave us a bath and put us in our pajamas while the Dad's finished the carving. In the end we had two cute pumpkins and everyone played a part in it. FUN!

Potty Chair

 I used my Potty chair today for the 1st time. I peed 3 out of the 4 times Mommy and Daddy put me on it. They are fully aware that I cannot hold my bladder for very long but figured they would at least do some trial runs. Yay for going potty on my toilet!

Playing Outside

I love playing outside! I love the dirt, I love the leaves, I love running with sticks (until Mom snags them), I love climbing up and down the back porch steps, I love running under the gazebo across the pavement while Mommy cringes, imagining my first bloody face plant. Yeah, I just love it all.

Bath Time After Painting

 Mommy and I painted fall pictures today. No, I don't have a picture of them to show you. While Mom was trying to prevent me from splattering paint on the walls, bookshelf, and heater I decided to eat them. So this is what you get. A messy, paint ridden baby waiting for her Mommy to turn on the bath water. Your welcome.

For Sale

Mommy and Daddy brought a bin of clothes inside to sort through and take over for consignment.  I found a piece of blue duct tape that said "For Sale" stuck to the top of the bin.  I feel that it makes a wonderful hair accessory but my parents weren't to keen on the meaning behind it.  No, they won't sell me to you.

The Pumpkin Patch 2010

Let's get the festivities started! It's October which means, Pumpkin Patch time! Holly, Ahna, Mommy, and I went to the Pumpkin Patch in Sauvie Island this year. We might just start Pumpkin Patch hopping every year! We had a great time playing with the pumpkins and crawling through the hay maze and tunnel. My favorite part was getting dirty. Which Pumpkin Patch should we go to next year?

We Officially Have A Walker!

I have been toddling around for awhile now but I have less falls, started taking corners and i'm actually standing up unassisted.  I also have a new favorite saying,  "Oh boy!"

Ahna's First Birthday

It was cold, wet, and windy. None of that mattered though. Do you want to know why? Because it was Miss Ahna's 1st Birthday! We bundled up and made the best out of mother nature. I think it turned out great! Besides, the cupcakes were delicious and the Hostess got the mostest!
