more silliness

I took two great naps today! Mommy loves it when I wake up happy and just chattering in my crib. This morning she came into my room to find me like this!! I had both of my legs through the slats on the crib and was sitting on my bumper. We were both laughing and laughing!

scarf play

One of my new favorite games is pulling Mommy's scarf through a paper towel roll. Then I like to put it around my neck...Mommy and Daddy always tell me that I look pretty. I learned how to sign the word "again" while playing this game because I could do it again and again and again!



here I am signing "again"

51 weeks

I can't believe we only have one more week of Sunday pictures. I have been taking Hannah's picture every Sunday for the past year. It works out perfectly...she was born on a Sunday, and she's always dressed up for church. Here are her 51 week pictures...looking as cute as ever!





Just like Uncle Cody :)

silly with a spoon

Friday night before coffee and comedy night with the teens we had dinner in Daddy's office. I must be teething again...because I sure was having fun chewing on my spoon...and being quite silly too!

A day with my friend Fiona

Since this week was mid-winter break, Fiona got to come spend a day with Mommy and I. We had so much fun! Fiona is such a good playmate!


I love when Fiona reads to me. I crawled up on her lap with one of my favorite books "Baby Colors" and she read to me

Fiona got to decorate her own sugar cookies...she likes LOTS of sprinkles! :)

Fiona and Mommy did a puzzle while I took my nap...so pretty!

Mommy also taught Fiona how to knit..she did a great job!

Happy Birthday Uncle Adam

Make a Smilebox greeting

I'm a little Valentine

Reading my Valentine card from Gran & Pa

The 3 cards I got in the mail. From Gran & Pa, Great Grandpa & Grandma Dickson, and my friend Luke....the my first Valentine from a boy. I can't wait for him to come visit me next week!

Valentines Day

On Valentines Day...I got to spend the afternoon with our friends Jeff & Amber. They offered to watch me so that Mommy and Daddy could go on a date. I had so much fun with them.

takin' a laundry basket ride

playin' on the computer with Jeff

they wore me out..time for a nap with Jeff

This is how Mommy and Daddy found when when they got back...nice and cozy on Jeffs lap...he's my buddy! :o)

Pillow wars

So the kid in my Daddy comes out again!

He says that he used to love to play pillow wars with my Uncles...and now he gets to play with me! Daddy and I took the pillows off the couch and had lots of fun!

Daddy attachs!

ahh!!!

so I said I would get him with my comb!

standing...

...but just for a few seconds.

I can totally stand on my own..but I'm not too interested in doing it. Mommy and Daddy have to trick me into it...usually by giving me something to keep both of my hands busy. I'm such a pro at crawling that I don't show much interst in standing or walking yet...but here's a picture that Mommy caught of me while I was practicing:

My new highchair

Over the weekend, Mommy was cleaning my high chair and it completly fell apart! The 3 spindles came out of the top and the seat cracked right now the side. We knew that it was time to get a new high chair! Mommy and Daddy say that God cares about even the littlest things! We got just the highchair that we wanted for such a great price! God always provides for us..just what we need. Mommy really wanted a wooden high chair that would look nice by our table since our table sits in the living room. We found an Eddie Bauer high chair on craigslist for just $40. It sells for $130 in the stores...so that was a great deal! We were so excited to find one that matched our table just right and is nice and safe for me. I love it! Here's a picture of me eating dinner in it tonight. I was enjoying Mommy's potato soup and rolls...."Mmmmm".

pretty hair

One of my favorite things to do is go in my room and play in the baskets at the bottom of my changing table. My favorite basket has my comb, binkis, and hair bows in it. I love to take everything out and put it back in again. Today mom caught a picture of my combing my own hair :o) I'm really concentrating!

Congrats to Kiran & Sweta

Our friend Kiran at church went home to India for a visit in December. When he came back...he returned with a wife! We are so excited to have Sweta here as a part of our church family. On Sunday we had a reception for them. I loved talking to Sweta and playing with her bangles.

not the best picture...but at least you can see the beautiful cake that Ms. Jolene made!

Our Saturday

Today Mommy had some friends over to make Valentines Day cards. I welcomed everyone and went down for my morning nap while they worked. When I woke up they were STILL making cards. So Mommy gave me a yummy banana cookie and cheerios. I watched while they all worked. I can't wait until I can make cards too!

I don't think Darlene is going to be too happy about me posting this pic...but as you can see we had a great time with good talks and laughter! Don't you LOVE the card she made?!

Karen made some great ones too!

After the girls left we had lunch with Daddy...Mommy and I both love it when he's home! I was kinda fussy about eating...but then Mommy gave me a piece of toast. I made a mess...but Mmmmm....it was good!

When Mommy was cleaning my highchair...she realized that it is totally falling apart! I guess Daddy and my Uncles were all it could handle! So we are on the lookout for a new high chair. Only problem is they make them SO big and bulky now...we hope to find another nice, small wooden one...we shall see! Mommy looked on craigslist for a while..then we decided to take advantage of the warmer weather and head out for a walk. The sidewalks were wet...but it sure was nice to get some fresh air after being inside all winter! Here's a pic of me all bundled up! Thanks to Mrs. Mikel for the adorable coat and Mrs. Stanely for the warm stroller blanket!

Baby Time at the library

Yesterday Mommy and I went to the Farmington library for Baby time...we loved it! We had so much fun playing, singing, & reading. There were a lot more babies at this story time...so that was fun. After the songs and stories we had time to play with lots of friends and lots of toys. Here are a few shots Mommy got:



yeah for new toys!


after the library we went to visit Daddy at work...then he took us to Wendy's for lunch. What a fun day!
