Memere wants pictures!

I'm sorry to have been away for so long. I have had a couple play dates that have kept me busy and I'm also not sleeping too well at night so I feel somewhat exhausted during the day.

Anyway, Memere has requested some new pictures, so I'll upload some over the past couple months that I haven't been able to.

First are a couple pictures of me being cute.


This one is me modeling a new outfit (one of MANY) I got for Christmas.

We had some really nice days in early January when the temperatures were in the 50s. Mommy took me out for a walk in my new stroller. I LOVE being able to face forward now.

This one is just me and Mommy being silly.

I love playing with my music and singing stage!

Mommy likes to put bows on my head.

Mommy tested out my training sippy cup. I know how to put it in my mouth but didn't really care to get the milk out. She tells me this weekend I will be trying something called "solids".



A couple weeks ago, Gramma babysat me while Mommy and Daddy went out. I gave her a really hard time when she tried to put me down for a nap. She didn't know about all the swaddling and shhing techniques Mommy and Daddy have developed. Here's a picture of how I eventually fell asleep.

This last video is of me in my new duck tub. I usually splash a lot, but this time I was more concerned about sucking on the face cloth.

My first Christmas!

Sorry I haven't been around much. Mommy and Daddy were on vacation with me, and we all enjoyed some relaxing family time.

I thought now that I have a moment I would show you some pictures of my first Christmas. It was a busy time, but I enjoyed it a lot. I was passed around to everyone, but I didn't mind it at all. I'm a big girl now.

First I want to show you how my fat cat, Ellie, tried to fit into a very small box. Silly kitty.

We went to a party up in NH and I got to hang out with my cousin, Lexie. She held me and showed me how to give an awesome fashion show with all the cool clothes she got!

Then on Christmas Eve we went to see Memere and Grandpa. Uncle Matt and Auntie Alicia were there with cousin, Thijs. These are the pictures my mommy took while we were there.









Memere got a HUGE flashlight from Auntie Celeste. She turned it on and we could feel the heat on our faces. It was like the sun! The second picture gives you an idea of the brightness but it didn't come out too clear.


The next day we spent some time at Gramma's and Grampy's in the morning and we all had lunch at Memere's and Grandpa's.

I got to hang out with Uncle Mikey again. He has a cool beard I like to touch.

Gramma gave me my Christmas dress that I wore in the Christmas card we sent out.

A couple days after Christmas I went up to NH to Auntie Alida (Auntie Alicia's twin sister) and Uncle Martin's house. Thijs and I hung out and discussed all the cool things we got!
