Fun at Gramma's!

We were so happy to see Michael and Ashley today! We went walking, played outside, went out for lunch, and Anna had lots of fish that Gramma made for dinner. Anna asked to go potty at the restaurant - yeah!


Doing pull-ups already!

Fun, fun, fun!

First we met up with Claire and Emily at the Children's Museum, and got to make wizard hats in the "art room" and then we played with Allison and Andrew at their house, with their cute bunny named Bun-Bun, on their swing set, and catch with balls and Frisbees and some basketball and horseshoes! Andrew even shared his tricycle with Anna since he is getting too big for it. Oh, and here Anna is sporting her first bike helmet that she got to decorate at the Children's Museum on Sunday, and she also got to show Daddy all around the museum.

Darling City Park!

All these fun cars and buildings to play in and the swings were still Anna's favorite!

Butterfly ~ Fairy ~ Abby Caddabby

Anna wants to ride too!


Anna was thrilled with her lovely butterfly wings, magic wand, and ballerina skirt!


Uncle Billy watched Anna while I enjoyed dinner with my mom and her good friend Sandy!

A new video!

Today we went to Elizabeth's Confirmation - Congratulations Elizabeth :) Anna had a ball - she is getting to be quite the entertainer! She was also really enjoying the rolls - she ate 4! I'll add some photos tomorrow.

I am making progress on videos once again, so here is:
"Active in October - Part 1" with Anna eating, talking, swinging, sliding, hiking, dancing, and playing in leaves:


Stay tuned for more!

Looking for more videos? There are videos for June through September on the December 1, 2007 Post. This is a link to June and from there you may click on "Older Posts" in the lower right-hand corner to view the July, August, and September videos.

Cozy Cousins :)

Bye-bye Galapagos Sands

This awesome exhibit is closing; it's been fun and I'm sure Abracadabra will be just as exciting! We've been coming to play in the sand in the Children's Museum all winter! Now, I guess we'll have to find some sand outside! Looks like I'm saying "sssh", but really I have a fetish with touching my button nose.

We made a beautiful craft today!

Something was getting Anna's goat!



Yeah, I'm UP-TO-DATE! with photos...lots of videos still to come!

Lawn confetti

We FINALLY decided to take down all these silly flags representing all the electrical, water, and gas lines because our cable company said that they weren't going to replace our cable after all. Wouldn't you know, the very next day, we notice a tiny split in the grass all the way from the street to the back of our house, and a new cable! Luckily, most of the flag markers had been in the tree lawn and beside the driveway, and the cable came up around the other side of the house, so hopefully everything is fine! Internet seems faster, hence all the newly uploaded photos!

Anna's Dora Birthday Party

Thank you everyone for your company and generosity!

What a big girl, sitting at the children's table for dinner!


With this big cake she needed some help, but on Wednesday, for her "actual" birthday, she blew out her candles by herself!

Giuseppe certainly wasn't camera shy today!

Beautiful Botanical Garden

We went with Gramma, Joey, Aunt Michelle, and their friends: Jamie, Andrew, and Vivian.



We got to race our own mealworm and Anna even held one in her hand - for a second!
Did you know mealworms are baby beetles?

Happy snowy Easter to all!

The Easter Bunny didn't hide Anna's basket very well - next year he should be a bit sneakier!


This is Anna's favorite new toy - an Abby Caddabby puzzle - she does it over and over, as soon as she finishes, she was "Again!" hardly even getting a chance to see the results of her hard work!


Pretty girls :) They were so cute playing together tonight - Anna wanted to do everything her big cousin Violetta did.


a little editing fun :)

Computer fun with Daddy

It was so cute! Doesn't she look like her Dad? Anna kept typing a letter on the keyboard and shouting it out! I tried to get some video, so maybe someday you will see :) By the way, I hardly ever video-record any more, and Anna isn't even two, and we don't even have our #2 yet!

Things are starting to warm up.

Aren't Maddie's Dora shades stylin'?

Funny face - finally, there is a clear (mostly) path on the sidewalk!
