Christmas pictures

My mommy decided she was too tired this year to try and run around after me, getting a good Christmas picture... So, she decided to take me somewhere to have someone else do it for her! I surprised her by being VERY good, and she was very happy with the pictures this year. I had a good time too! Merry Christmas!

Emmy's 20 week ultrasound

I went to mommy's doctor last night and got to see my baby sister, "Emmy", on TV again! She was wiggling all over the place, and I think she even waved to me! Mommy helped me put together some pictures and a video to share, but she wanted to warn everyone that part of it is in 3D, and looks kind of creepy. Emmy weighs almost a pound already, but still looks kind of "skeletal", and the ultrasound angles make it look like she's missing parts of her head... but I PROMISE they are all there! I saw them myself! I think she's kinda cute... ENJOY!





Here's a little video of the ultrasound, and of me "listening" to Emmy's heart with my new doctor's kit!:

Here's my mommy at 5 months... she says she feels huge already!

Thanks Uncle Ry-Ry!

Thank you to my Uncle Ry-Ry for letting me borrow the train set he had when he was little! I LOVE playing with it... especially the bridges and tunnels!

Thanksgiving in Michigan

I got to spend my Thanksgiving this year in Michigan with all of my mommys' family! I was just getting over the flu, so I had a bit of a slow start, with a lots of rest time & a little "crankiness"...

... but I quickly got into the swing of things & started helping to decorate the house for our holiday celebrations...

I couldn't help but stop often and play with my FAVORITE toy of the weekend... my cousins' vanity table & hair accessories. I loved giving myself haircuts, Alayna loved fixing my hair, and Uncle Ry-Ry even let me blow dry his!

The day after Thanksgiving, we had an early Christmas celebration, which we started with a "parade" around all of our presents!!!!

I was more into eating goldfish & playing with my cousins toys than opening my own, but I eventually got into that too...

I got to dance with "Mey-Mey" all dressed up in her new princess gown! I think I want to be a princess someday too!





The best part of this weekend was definately playing with my new "baby" friend, Julia! We were best buddies!

(Maybe we were a little too close at times, because she ended up getting sick after I left)... Sorry Julia!

I had a blast with all of my cousins!

Thank you Uncle Aaron, "Jenna", "Mey-Mey", "Layna", and "Baby" for a great time!

Finger painting!

Daddy and I had such a good time today... he showed me all about finger painting for the first time! Mommy was VERY surprised that I liked it as much as I did, and didn't think it was too yucky! I loved it so much that I needed a shower when I was done!

Here's a video of me painting my daddy!

My clever daddy...

My daddy thinks of so many clever things to teach me...

Our next president...

I've been learning all about politics this week because of the presidental election on Tuesday. Mommy & daddy took me with them to vote, and later we chilled out watching CNN. When I went to bed that night, mommy heard me over the monitor chanting, "Obaba, Obaba"... they said I must be a democrat... whatever that means! In case you didn't know already, you can watch my video, and I'll tell you who the next president is going to be!
