Happy Baby

Jazz hands!

My mom came to get me after a nap the other day.  She really didn't put me down like this!

Lying this way make me feel tall!

Yep, you're all wrapped around my little finger!

I have you all right where I want you!

Hmm, how does this thing work?

Now I'll know what to do once I discover the toilet paper roll.

Just watch, I'll be in the Olympics some day!

Sweet kisses.....?

Ec-static?

Here I am, just hangin' out, minding my own business...

...and I decide to stretch a little.  No big deal, right?

Wrong.

I think I'm stuck!

Okay, this isn't cool.

Folks, this is an illustration of why long hair isn't necessarily a blessing all the time (reason #12).

Still No Teeth

Nope, not one.  Not even a hint of one.

I may be a late bloomer in the tooth department, but I've officially outgrown my first car seat.  This one is much roomier!

Mexican and Mia

We spent the weekend with our friends Curt, Kristin, and two-and-a-half-month-old Mia up in Anacortes.  This is where I visited my very first Mexican restaurant!

I'm ready for my nachos!

Okay, where are they?

My mom and dad came too.

Curt, Kristin, and Mia decided to tag along with us.  (As it turned out, they knew the bartender very well!)

Daddy's hat rack.

So much for covering up my unruly hair!

Uncle Curt's hat rack.  Poor Mia.

C'mon, Mia, you can do it!

I don't think she realizes that the view is better from up here.

Miss Personality

Alli is definitely a bundle of personality.  She babbles and screeches and giggles all the time, and she's recently learned how fun it is to JUMP JUMP JUMP.  Once she's mobile, it's going to get a little crazy around here.  :)

My mom says I'll probably be walking before I begin to crawl.  She thinks my arms are too wimpy, but my meaty legs are ALL muscle... right?

That dad of mine is just toooooo funny!  He can always make me smile.

Did I do that?

Toys, toys everywhere, but this is the best one!

You gotta problem with that?

Just kidding!

We finally got to see baby Julian at home with Auntie Laura!  (I'm a little intimidated by his cuteness.)

I have no idea what Cousin Chase is doing, and it appears that Cousin Landon doesn't know either.

A Tough Critic

Hmm, I don't have high hopes based on the presentation.

I guess I'll give it a try.

Well, it is better than I expected...

... but it could use a little salt.

Daddy Did My Hair!

What do you think?

Don't I look taller?

Well, I think I look taller....

Why are you laughing?

Okay, don't you think you can calm down now?

Geez, enough already.

Show's over, folks!

Sweet Cheeks

Cheek shot!

Here's Alli watching The Killers concert on TV with her dad. Based on her fixation, I think she may have listened to too much of The Killers while in utero.  I blame Mike.

That's right, I pulled this thing over all by myself.  My brute strength amazes even me!

You caught me - I've fallen and I can't get up!

Oh, you haven't had enough yet, huh?  How's this?

Okay, leave me alone now, Mom. I'm done entertaining.
