First Snow Day!!

Whooo!! I got to play in the snow for the first time last week.
Mommy and Daddy went outside with me and I tasted the snow.
Snowballs are cold but so fun to eat!!

Boo!

I had so much fun on my first Halloween! The weekend before Halloween we went to the pumpkin patch and picked out some pumpkins. Can you tell which one is me? Hee-hee!

On Halloween we went trick-or-treating with Aunt Virg, Uncle Jeff, Emma, and Lizzie. That's me as Pumpkin Bella, Daddy as Farmer Steve, and Mommy as Scarecrow Jen. Aren't we silly?

Walks with Daddy!!!

The weather has turned cool and wet. My daddy is no longer around when I wake up. I am missing our morning walks and I am wishing he would take time off work again like he did in the summer.

Daddy would strap me to his chest in the Baby Bjorn so I could see the whole world. We would watch squirrels, listen to birds or the wind in the trees, or look at pretty flowers. Sometimes we would stop to pull on a new plant that I had never seen or tasted. On the way home I would relax and take a morning nap. And when we got home, Mommy!!!

Texas, Texas, Yee-Haw!

I'm still working on catching up on all of my adventures! In August I took my very first plane ride to Texas! I liked looking out the window at everything down below!
We were so busy while in Texas! I got to spend time with my Nana and Papa in Dallas. I got to meet two great grandmas while I was there, too!

Ma and Me!

Great Grandma Manlove with Mommy and me!

I discovered the pool at Granddad and Grandma Michael's house.... I love swimming with Granddad.

And Grandma has all the toys...

Camping Fun!

For my first trip Mommy and Daddy took me and the puppies to this place called Lake Chelan. We had so much fun walking down to the beach and in the woods with Lola and Dakota. I liked to sit on the picnic table and watch Mommy and Daddy cook breakfast and dinner. It got really cold at night so I snuggled in our tent in lots of warm clothes! I can't wait to go camping again!

Let's play catch-up...

A lot has happened in the 5 months since I've been born. I'll do a quick recap for you!

On April 26, 2007, after 9 months of growing in my mommy's tummy I got to meet the world. It took me 25 hours to make the trip, but I was so excited to finally meet Mommy, Daddy and the rest of my family!

I came home and spent lots of time cuddling with my Mommy and Daddy. I also got to spend time with my Nana, Papa, and Uncle Matt.

I met my Seattle family- there's lots of them! I love to see all of my cousins! My Aunt Katie and Uncle Brendan came all the way from Texas to meet me!

My Grandma and Grandpa Michael came to see me, too!

Since then, I've taken the dogs to the beach...

...had my first taste of rice cereal...

...gone hiking on the Old Robe Trail...

...hit the gym for some bouldering...

...not to mention buying pretty flowers at farmers' markets, playing in my backyard pool, playing with Lola, Dakota and Boo, and SO much more!
