I am ready for Summer!!

I am ready for fun in the sun at Uncle Jeff and Aunt Barb's pool!!

Got my chair....

...got my shades!!

Cribs are for play time, right?!

The other day I was taking a nap...so mom hoped. After 10 minutes of me talking and playing over the monitor, mom came up to check on me and this is what she found...me standing up in my crib for the first time.

I can finally reach these dudes, that have been looking down at me for the last 11 months.....

Swinging!

I went down to Sawyer Point with my parents and had fun swinging!! They are still too big for me but we made it work and it was thrilling!!

First plane ride!!!

Here I am with my dad and best bud, Julia, waiting to board our plane at the Cincinnati airport. We were heading to Minnesota for my Aunt Dianna and Uncle Seth's wedding.

Dad and I found this horse outside the gift shop and I just had to take a ride!

On the plane...

...I love the air vents!!

Did I mention that I didn't sleep much on either flight? I think my mom and dad were annoyed but I was having too much fun flirting with all the people around us and discovering all the things in the seat back pockets!!

I discovered the front door

I finally found out why the pups hang out around the front door. There is so much to see out there. I love just crawling over there and watching the world go by.

I can't get enough of watching dad do yard work.

10 Months...and getting cuter!!

Mom and Dad did a good job getting my hair up into ponytails this weekend! Do I look cute or what?

My dad captured this picture of me growling the other day...

Now that I am crawling all over the place, I had to go over and check out just what the dogs stare at all day out our front door.

Crawling!!

I am learning how to crawl!! Today I made my frist real moves. Check me out!!



I love to be tickled and I love to laugh. Here's a fun video of just that!!

EASTER!!

I had a wonderful Easter! We went to Columbus to visit with family.

Check out these cute rabbit ears my Aunt Lynn gave me and the adorable duck Uncle Steve picked out for me! Me, mom and dad

Me and my cousins...I have them all wrapped around my little finger!!

Could I get any cuter??

My cousin Jesse couldn't resist getting his rabbit ears on with me!!

My first Reds game!!

Thanks to Papa Jim, I got to go to my very 1st Reds game and I had a blast. There is so much to see and my parents were impressed that I was able to make it until the 7th inning stretch. Even thought the Reds lost, we had a great family day at the ballpark! I can't wait to go back!

Here I am will dad sitting in the seats. We had a great view and I was trying to check out the players!!Me and mom! The sun was really bright today!

They have a build-a-bear workshop at the stadium, and thanks to Karen and Carlos, I got my Gapper today. I actually picked out the heart that went into my Gapper and even slobbered on it a little before they put it in him. I love this Gapper guy and I wouldn't let go of him until I fell asleep in the car!

Pretty cool view....

9 months old...already!!

I am seriously loving life!! I am still not crawling and I have no teeth yet but I am happy as a clam!

I quit rolling for about 2 months but am not back at it full force...it is my mode of transportation since I refuse to get both of my knees under me! Rolling is more fun and a lot easier!

Biter biscuits are my addiction...

My mom discovered a new way to pen me up...this bin in fun to play in!

Hair...

Look at me with my first ponytail!! My mom got it all back but, as you can see, it starting falling out easily! She still has a lot to learn.

It looks the best just half up!

My first St. Patrick's Day!!

Well, I had my first St. Patty's day ...I tried to steal a taste of some Irish beer from my parents...I had to do the taste test challenge...Guiness or Smithwicks?? I still can't decide!

Typical day...

Hey guys!! I just thought I would send you some typical day in the life shots. I truly just love hanging out and playing. Sitting on the couch is a blast. It makes me feel like a big girl!!

My mom keeps trying to put these silly things on my head and take pictures...don't ask her how many times she had to do this just to get these next 2 pictures of me sitting still.

Max loves to come over and help me play with my toys. I have also discovered that it is fun to play with him with his toys too. We will play tug-o-war sometimes and my parents really get a kick out of it.

8 Months Old!!

Hey everyone. Sorry that I have been such an poor blogger last month, but here's an update on my life. Let's see; what happened last month? Well, I had a neverending cold that turned out to be an ear infection. My mom went out of town with a bunch of her girlfiends and left me with dad for 6 days. I had a blast hanging out with just dad. Oh, and I still have no teeth!! Here are some highlights from the past month.
I realized that I can turn on the music in my bouncy seat all by myself...oh, and I have probably grown out of my bouncy seat.

I am definitely a thrill seeker!! I love hanging upside down!

I found out that Sadie can also be a horse. I don't know how much she likes it...

And finally, my newest toy thanks to my mom and dad's friends, Jeff and Lori...a jumperoo!!! I love this thing and I am glad that are letting me borrow it!

7 months old!!!

Sorry that I have been slacking on my blogging this month...I apologize. In return, here's a big update for you all to enjoy. Can you believe that I am already 7 months old????
Here I am on my 7 month birthday enjoying some tummy time. I don't get much of this these days because sitting up on my own is much more fun and I have kind of forgotten how to roll myself back over. That is quite frustrating!

Who said high chairs are for eating...I love banging my toys on it!

I love dog time...I don't know how much they love it...

It has been a cold January! Here is me and mom bundled up in our hoodies. Don't we look cute?

Granny B gave me my first sugar cookie and it was great! Let the spoiling begin, Granny B!

I have become very fascinated with Sadie's collar!

Here is another video...I know you out-of-towners like these. Check out my new sounds...I motor boat and have taken up growling in the past week. You can also see how good I have become at sitting up and reaching for objects!
