Big Girl Bath

Ever since I've been crawling and pulling myself up on things, Mommy and Daddy decided to try giving me a bath without the baby tub in it.  And.....I love it.

TEETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh Yeah!  That's right!  After a miserable pre-Easter fever, and countless teething rings and bitten fingers, I HAVE CUT MY FIRST TWO TEETH!!!!  They are a bit hard to see, since they are just barely cut through, but in the third picture you can sorta make them out.  GO ME!!  Daddy will take some more pictures when they are more visible.

Uncle Rhett

Here I am playing with my Uncle Rhett.  He is funny, and I like to grab his nose!

More Easter Fun

Here I am enjoying some of my new Easter toys with My Favorite Aunt Avery, Mommy, and Grandma Lynnette.  Aunt Avery also brought me lots of clothes!  I have many new dresses and other outfits thanks to Grandma and Aunt Avery.

Grandma Lynnette and Daddy

Well, here I am with Grandma Lynnette, who also came to visit me on Easter and brought me tons of new clothes.  I'm still a little shy around Grandma Lynnette, so sometimes I have to have my Mommy or Daddy nearby.  I'll grow out of that soon Grandma!

Uncle David, Mommy, and ME!

Here I am with my Uncle David (who brought me my Easter Pig) and my Mommy after church as we looked at some of our Easter gifts!  Too bad I'm too young to eat that chocolate bunny.  Mommy told me she would give it a good home for me though.

My Crazy Daddy

(Sigh), here I am with my silly Daddy right before leaving for Easter Mass with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle David and Mommy.  Daddy thinks he is so clever using the mirror to take our picture; what a goofy guy.

Hangin' with Grandma B.

Here I am hanging out with Grandma Bliss last weekend.  She was helping me pull myself up to standing.  And then we cuddled together on the couch.  Later, when I was feeling like a first rate sicky-sickerson (because of my nearly cut teeth) she tried to make me feel better.

Playing with Grandpa and Mommy

Here I am enjoying some quality floor time with Mommy, Grandpa, my kitty Maximus, and my new singing puppy!

Fun with Grandpa

Here I am with Grandpa Bliss, spending some quality time on Saturday morning before Easter!  Grandpa is a funny guy and likes to play Peek-a-boo with me.

Easter Puppy

Last weekend, Grandma and Grandpa Bliss came over to celebrate Easter.  On Saturday, they gave me an early present: a Laugh and Learn Puppy!  It sings songs and plays games when I touch parts of it, like its ear or tummy or paws or nose.  It is so fun.  Thanks Grandpa and Grandma!

My Sippy-Cup

Since I'm such a big girl, Mommy and Daddy have let me start playing with my new Sippy Cup.  I like to chew on it mostly, but every now and then I get a taste.

8 months: Bed Time?

Well, here I am showing off my pull-up-in-my-crib-while-Mommy-tries-to-lull-me-to-sleep-with-a-story maneuver.  Daddy caught me in the act.  I'm so cute.  And I'm 8 months old!  Go Me!

8 months: Pull-up!!

Check this out: I've been crawling for just over a week, and guess what I can do now?  Oh, yes.  I can pull myself up on stuff.  I'm a champ.  I rock.  You love it.

8 Months: New Foods!!

Here I am getting my first taste of meat: chicken and chicken gravy, along with some gag-olicious green beens.  I seriously gaged.  A lot.  The chicken wasn't terrible, but I was getting sick with the beans.  

8 months: Morning

Here I am on the morning of my eighth monthiversary, snoozing with Mommy.  Yeah, sometimes I get to come snuggle with Mommy and Daddy when I wake up hungary in the middle of the night.  I've also been having a bit of an upset stomach in the night with all the new solid foods Mommy and Daddy have been feeding me.  Nothing soothes a tummy ache like Mommy's milk and a snuggle!
