HAPPY B-DAY DAD!

It's Dad's B-Day!  

He hasn't had his hair cut since I was born!

G-Pop is here

I have three new exciting things to share with you all!  First, as you can see below, my G-Pop is here visiting me for the week.  Mom is doing training for a new job as a Hospice nurse, so G-Pop is here to take care of me.  He is doing a great job and we are having a ton of fun together! 

I hate taking a bottle, so lucky for him, I LOVE rice cereal!  He is getting really good at feeding it to me!

 Number 2 - Do you all recognize this?  I thought you would... It's my pacifier, which I no longer use.... Seriously, I have given it up.  When Mom tries to put it in my mouth, I spit it out! 

Number 3 - This is my new room!  Mom has been working really hard on it.  Apparently, she thinks I like the color teal like she does. 

Mom stitched up this new bed skirt for me.  It's all her favorite fabrics.  Some of them are from their  wedding.  I guess she used them as table cloths?

She even painted me a picture of an owl.  Hoot Hoot!

P.S. - Don't forget tomorrow is Daddy's Birthday! 

snow, snow, and more snow

 It has been snowing since Saturday, and it's still coming down!  We had record snow fall on Sunday, 27 inches in 24 hours.  Because of all the snow, Daddy got to go ski all day Monday.  He said it ranked in at one of his top three days of skiing, ever! WOW.....

This is what I see when I look out my bedroom window!

Daddy was so tired when he got home from skiing. He snuggled right into bed with me!

Oh, this is my friend Wyatt again, remember him from the library?  Well actually, this is his mom Jessica, Wyatt is under the blue sack.  They walk everywhere together, even in the snow!

Here is a beautiful flower I picked just for you! Hope you have a great day!

 Here they are.. Hot off the press!  5 Months Photos

After the photo shoot, Mom and I had to go visit Dr.Ross.  Don't worry, I'm not sick, I just had to get some vaccinations.  Mommy had me weighed when we were there, I am 12.4 Lbs! 

Here I am, all ready to go!

I didn't even cry.  See my band aid?

This is a project Mom whipped up today! All my cute little body parts!

5 Months Old!

Wow.... Mommy just told me I am already 5 months old today. Can you believe it? I bet you know what this means.....  Yep, my 5 month photo shoot later on today.  First Mommy has to sew up my outfit. 

Our ten day trip

Mommy and I went on a 10 day trip.  We took lots of pictures. Let me show you where we went and what we did!

This is Kennedy, my new friend.  Mommy, Daddy and I spent the night at her house.  She lives in the Denver area.  

It snowed over a foot while we were visiting them.  Too bad I'm not bigger or Kennedy and I would have been out playing in it!

This is Kennedy's dog, Sophie.  She has the same name as my giraffe.

She is just too cute!

I got to meet Jill Purdy for the first time. Wow, she is a really good cook!

After we left Kennedy's house we went to my first NHL hockey game. Avalanche vs. Canucks.  We cheered for the Canucks, and they won. It was a really good game and I enjoyed all the lights and music, although it got a little too loud for me towards the end, so I started crying. 

The second period was a little boring so I fell asleep.

We were up really high.

The next day, Mommy and I got in an airplane and flew to Indianapolis.  We saw Uncle Tanner, Aunt Kalisha,  and G-Grandma Barb. After all of our visiting, we finally made it to Pama's and Gramp's house. 

Ruby and Gramps

I even got to spend some time with G-Gramps Jerry. He talks really loud!

There's Mom, doing what she loves!

This was my Valentines gift to all my Grandparents.  They just loved it. 

Pama's summer flowers are still blooming!

This was Pama's homemade Bumbo seat. Looks more like a suitcase to me! Whatever.

After spending a couple days in IN, Mom and I headed to OH to see Gi Gi and G Pop. 

GiGi was helping me learn how to stand

 

G Pop was sleeping on the job!

In this picture Mommy and I were at the St.Louis airport waiting for our plane to take us home!  It was a long trip and I was ready to sleep in my own bed!
