Happy Birthday, PaPa!

My great grandfather (PaPa) had a birthday on Friday. My mommy meant to post this and got busy!

Happy 82nd Birthday! We love you!

Swimming at the Pool

On Sunday, we went to the pool so I could practice swimming. My friends, Sofia and Stella, went with us. I love the water! Here are some pictures...

Grandma and Grandpa Visit

My grandma and grandpa from MI came to visit me this weekend. We had a great time!

A Visit from Bella

My friend, Bella, came by to visit with me this afternoon. They (Bella and her mommy) wanted to try out the backpack, Bob stroller and Britax Boulevard car seat. I think Bella liked them.

Here are some pictures that my daddy took of our visit together...

Daddy's Crazy

Daddy decided to go for a run when he got home from work. Well, he put on this long-sleeve t-shirt only to realize that it probably wasn't his. Check out these pictures that mommy took.

Johnson's Baby Massage Video

In one of my many "baby" emails, I received a link to this cute baby massage video created by Johnson & Johnson. If you have time, take a look at it! There are some really good tips on how to massage your baby.

I couldn't resist...

My marine friend, Bobby, sent this picture.

Bald Babies Shop

My friend, Kori, recently started her own business making these ADORABLE hats for babies. If you're interested, check out her website. The twins are her little girls, Sydney and Sammi. Aren't they adorable?

I love being outside!

As you can see from the pictures, I love the outdoors. I can't wait for it to warm up so I can spend my days enjoying the sunshine.

Hanging out with my parents...

is always an interesting time. Here are just a few things that they do to me when we're out and about.

Grammy and Papa Visit

Thank you grammy and papa for coming to visit me. I had so much fun! Here are some of the pictures mommy and daddy took while you were here.

Night out...

Back in January, we went out with some of mommy's co-workers. Here are the pictures that Miss Annie took.

Dinner out....

Tonight, we went to dinner at Otani's. This was my first time but I really enjoyed watching the entertainment. Here are a couple of pictures from the evening.

Gun and Knife Show

Yes, you read the title right. I went to my first gun and knife show with my papa and daddy. Daddy carried me around in the backpack...I was a hit with all the people. Oh yeah! I took a nap while I was there.

Here are two pictures that mommy took of us before we left.

8 Month Pictures

Here are the pictures that have been taken of me during this 8 month of my wonderful life. :-)

I'm a big girl now!

This has been a week of firsts; I pulled myself up and I said "mama".

Here are some pictures that "mama" snapped of me this week.

CC Says Mama

Thank you, Charmie!

I love my Valentine's Day card (eating it) and book.

Happy Valentine's Day, Nutz!

Snow on Valentine's Day

We woke up this morning to find that it had snowed during the night. Here's a picture that mommy took of the back porch.

Happy Valentine's Day, Daddy!

I wish you were here to celebrate the day with us! I miss you!

Happy Birthday, Ms. Amy!

Today is Ms. Amy's birthday. Hope you have a fantastic day! Thank you for taking such good care of me while my mommy and daddy are at work!

Grammy is visiting!

My grammy is visiting...yipee! Here's a picture of her "watching" me while mommy does some laundry. What you don't see in the picture is my grammy holding my foot so I don't fall off the bed. :-)

Guess what I can do?

I pulled myself up today. Yes, you heard correctly; I can now pull myself up! Check out the pictures that mommy took.

I love my backpack!

Happy 8 Month Birthday, CC!

Where does the time go? Today CC is 8 months old. I'll be sure to post some pictures later today.

Cool Helicopter and a New Skill

I never cease to amaze my mommy. My grammy got me this Vtech Explore & Learn Helicopter for Christmas...I love it. I now can put the balls into the top of the helicopter. It's so much fun!

Here are some pictures of me playing...

My New Backpack

I love my new backpack (mentioned in previous post). Here's a picture of it! We bought it at BabiesRUs. In order to "test it out", mommy carried me around the store. It was fun! Daddy did a "test run" also and it fit him as well. I'll have mommy take some pictures of me in it!

A day of shopping...

On Saturday, we ventured out of the house in search of a backpack for me. Well, not one for me to wear but one for mommy and daddy to carry me.

I wore this pretty torquoise and blue outfit...it made my eyes "stand out".

Playing

I love to play with all of my toys.

More Books

As you can tell from several of the pictures that mommy has taken, I just love books. Here you'll see me reading books off my shelf in the office. Mommy has my books on the bottom shelf so I can reach them.

Kitchen Cabinet

I now have my own kitchen cabinet that I can play in.

Just me...

Mommy's been a slacker about putting new posts on the blog. Okay, maybe not a slacker but really busy with work and taking care of me.

Here are a couple of pictures she took last week of me hanging out in the playroom/office. Yes, that's a picture of me under the desk with all of the cords. :-)
