Visiting the Lo's

December 26th

Today we got to visit Tyler, Auntie Stella and Uncle Spencer! Auntie Anna and Uncle Ken also came by to hang out! It was so nice to see them all! I especially had fun playing with all of Tyler's toys and hanging out with him!

Christmas!

December 24-25th

Christmas eve I got to open some of my presents! I'm getting good at opening gifts and love to tear off the paper, play with the tissue paper and look for my gift!

Not a Xmas present, just being silly..

Daddy helping me fly...

Playing with Rocky

Chillin' with Rocky on the couch

OOhhh... what is it?!

Cool blocks!

Having fun ripping the tissue paper

Another fun gift!

Whew.. opening gifts is tiring!

I got to open a lot of nice gifts on Christmas eve! And then this morning Santa Claus came and left me more gifts in my stocking!!! I also got to open a lot of gifts that were mailed to me from all my 'Santa Claus'  in Hawaii! How fun!

Checking out my stocking...

What did I get?!

Thanks to everyone for all my fun and nice gifts! Unfortunately my mommy didn't get a picture of me with all of them, but I am loving them all!!!

15 months old

December 22nd

Today I turned 15 months old!

I am walking all over the place now! I especially love to walk outside, smell all the flowers, touch all the plants and help walk Rocky ( and even pretend to help pick up his poop!).

I love books!

Playing with my tea set

I still love to read and will sit in your lap to have you read to me. I love playing with my toy kitchen, my toy tea set and my toy veggies/ fruits and pretend that I'm making something or eating/drinking something.

Helping mommy do some baking

 I still love bubbles and have learned to blow them all on my own now! I love to watch my mommy and daddy bake/cook and always want to try to help them ( if they'll let me!). I still love music and will dance to it whenever I hear it! I also love to help my mommy with the laundry and with putting things away. I am saying a lot of words now like 'more', 'dog', 'cracker', 'wawa', 'cat', 'one', 'hot', 'nana' ( for banana), 'baby', 'moo', 'woof woof' etc.

HUG HUG Rocky!

I love to play with Rocky and chase him around and give him lots of hugs ( he doesn't always want them though!).  Daddy, on the other hand, LOVES to get my hugs! And look at how big my feet are getting! Mommy says that I have Daddy's feet.. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing! =)

Daddy loves my hugs!

Tahoe

December 18th-23rd

Today we headed up to Tahoe! It is our first trip up for the winter season. Unfortunately there hasn't been any snow so there wasn't any snow near our condo. The Northstar village was nicely decorated though and I enjoyed all the lights and the large Christmas tree with presents! Now that I'm walking around on my own, I have so much fun taking off and walking all over the place! Mommy and Daddy have to keep an eye on me because if not, I'm gone on my own adventure, checking everything out and touching everything I can!

In front of the pretty xmas tree

and I'm off... 

We found some patches of snow that I got to walk around on and touch. Hopefully next time I'll get to try riding on a sled or actually playing in the snow!

All bundled up..

Still trying to get used to this stuff..

Crab/Uncle Dean's bday

December 10th

This morning my daddy went crabbing and caught a few crabs and before he cleaned them, I got to see and touch them up close and personal.

Feels strange...

It's little beady eyes are looking at me...

Later that night we went out to dinner for Uncle Dean's bday. We went to a yummy steak place and I got to eat lots and lots of fries!! I love fries, and they keep me happy when we're out to eat! It was nice to see Uncle Dean, Auntie Nicole and grandma and grandpa! 

Happy Birthday Uncle Dean!

Having fun with grandma and grandpa

Santa Claus

December 9th

Today mommy, me and grandma went to the mall to do some christmas shopping. Santa was there taking pictures so my mommy jumped at the opportunity to get me to take a picture with him ( mommy will have to scan the photo in soon..).  Luckily we went early so there wasn't much of a line. Lately I haven't been very willing to be held by strangers, but the photographers kept me entertained with stuffed animals and funny faces so I didn't cry at all!
