November 2011

Have you met this guy? Do you know who he is? He came to live at our house at the end of November, his name is Phony! I named him. He stays at our house all day and then at night he flies to the North Pole to give Santa a report on mine and Gage's behavior for the day. And when we wake up the next day we have to find him, he moves a lot!

G man at 8 months old
Me and Kara--she spent the night with me and we got dressed up to go play outside! :)
G man eating mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving...this took a lot for mom, she was struggling!
My mom and dad on thanksgiving at Momaw and Popaw's. Aren't they sweet?

Me putting my first ornament on the tree! I think if I remember correctly the first ornament I put on was the "marrying cake" I made for mom and dad at Momaw's. I'm gong to be the next Dough by Di!

Me and Mom decorating away!
This is what G man did while we decorated the tree...
Me and Dad posted up watching some Rudolph after the decorating was over.
Our house all lit up!

G man hanging up his "Baby's 1st Christmas" spoon ornament--he tried to eat it! That must mean he really likes it.

Me and Dad putting the star on the tree! I'm so tall!
Me and Mom "fluffing" the tree! I was a good fluffer but man we had a lot of fluffing to do.
G loves this thing so much that it doesn't make him mad that just pulled it over on himself, cause now he can reach the frog he loves so much! And mom is such an awesome mom that instead of helping him up she takes a picture! That's just like my mom!

Me and Kara right before the Rodeo!!! This was my birthday present, a trip to the rodeo!

G eating--his favorite thing to do!

Got out some of my old toys the other day and G man LOVES the learning table! His favorite parts are the turning frog thing and the up and down frog. He loves it!
I cleaned my room and made my bed, what do you think? I even folded the blankets at the end of my bed. I am trying to be good!
On my way to my FIRST ever big girl birthday party. A big girl birthday party means mom or dad doesn't go with me, they just drop me off and pick me up later. It's a Maddie's house, so it's right next door but I think Mom is a bit nervous. I had a lot of fun! I am holding Maddie's present, I wrapped it myself! ! !
Me and G watching cartoons!

September 2011

September was BUSY!!!!

Most importantly, it was my birthday and I am now 4!!! Can you believe it?

My dad decided that before I was 4 I would learn to ride me bike without training wheels and guess what? He was right! We spent some serious hours outside and now I don't need any training wheels.

Look at me go!!!
At first he kinda "pushed" me off and then I would go on my own but now I just go without him. For some reason I think riding my bike without training wheels made mom a bit sad. I don't know why? But she said she was really proud of me.
G man wearing his shoes that finally fit, he is so cute!
Me and G man! Me 4 years, G man 6 months! Thanks JNP Photography for such great pics of us.

4 year old me

6 month old Gage

Mom, Nina, and Gage traveled to St Louis to attend a memorial service this month as well :(

However, while there Gage sat in a high chair for the first time and did really good. Mom put a blanket behind him and he loved it.
Me in front of my hook at school. I'm such a big girl! I love going to school.
Gage started eating avocado this month too! He LOVES it!

I learned to eat with chopsticks, well let's maybe say I was able to get food in my mouth with chopsticks, not entirely sure I did it correctly but whatever.
Painted my own toes and did a decent job, mom knew I was doing it and she was fine with it.
After my birthday party the slide guy left the slide at our house for a few days and so the Pomeroy kids came over to play. We played a lot and all the "babies" played in their exersaucers. They seemed to have fun but we had the MOST fun!
