Snow Day in February

This was technically my third snow day, but it was the first time I was able to play in it. The ground was covered, and we went out in the backyard and played for a few minutes. It was a Friday, but Mama and Dada didn't have to go to work because of the snow. After we played in it for a while, we went to Mimi and Poppy's house that afternoon and played some more.




Christmas

Mama doesn't have any pictures from Christmas on her computer yet, so this is just a picture that went on Laney and Joe Joe's Christmas card. I was tired...


Dada's Birthday

Next was Dada's birthday!

I wore a cute shirt Mama found that said "I Love Daddy". I think he really liked it!!!


I loved helping Dada open his cards and presents. He said I was a big helper.



My First Birthday Party!

I had so much fun on my party day (Dec. 5th). I woke up that morning to snow still on the ground. Mama thought it was kinda funny that there was snow outside and we had a "luau" themed party inside.

Can you tell I had just woken up? Can you see the snow still on the ground outside? When I was exactly 1 week old, Mama took a picture of me in my carseat in the same window when it snowed.


I was having so much fun at my party!!!


And...I loved my cake!!
Mama took a picture of it before I got too messy.


I loved my decorations and toys.


My First Birthday!!!!

In December, there is so much to celebrate! My birthday is the 4th, Dada's birthday is the 12th, and Laney's birthday is the 26th...not to mention Christmas!!!!

I can't believe it snowed on my birthday!


This picture was taken the morning of my birthday...at 10:45am (the exact time I was born). Mama was hoping I would wake up, but she took a picture anyway.
This was taken after I woke up from my nap with my favorite toy, my blue monkey. We kinda match, huh?


Pageant Time

It's been a long time since we've updated, so Mama is going to backtrack a little.



In November, I was in my very first (and only) beauty pageant. I had to turn in a picture for the photogenic part, so this is what I chose:





I won Miss Photogenic!!!!! Either Mama was a good photographer or I was a good model! I think I was a good model! I love to smile in front of the camera!

In the pageant, I also got "prettiest eyes" and 1st runner-up. I took home a trophy and medals. The most important thing.....I had fun! I loved being on stage!!!

Southern Miss Homecoming a.k.a. My first game

This past weekend was so much fun! This was my first trip to campus and it just happened to be Southern Miss's Homecoming on October 24, 2009. This was my first game, so Mama dressed me all up. I was wearing a Southern Miss cheerleader outfit with a black long-sleeved shirt and leggings, white socks and shoes, and a Southern Miss bow. Dody brought me some ear muffs and Mama bought me a gold sweater and black peacoat because it was COLD!!! I needed some baby mittens!!!!!!!!


It was so much fun when Mimi surprised me! I turned around and there she was! I missed her last week!!!



I am Dody's monkey! It was so much fun to stay with her, Laney, Joe Joe, and that crazy Gabby last week!


The game was crazy! I loved to hear the band play and the cheerleaders yell. When Southern Miss blocked the extra point and ran it back for a touchdown, the crowd when crazy and I clapped too!!!!!


There were several different camera crew people taking my picture from the field. We were on the second row, so I was easy to see. I caught so much attention, even Seymour wanted his picture with me!!!



This is me and Dada before the game. He's special...he gets to be on the field during the game. They made all of the babies go to the stands...I guess we would cause too much distraction.




Here's me and Mama and Dada before the game. Don't we look so cute???? I was really trying to catch Fletcher on the field practicing...oh well, maybe next time!


New Stuff Everyday!!!

Well people,

A lot has happened since you last saw me!!! These pictures are going to be out of order, so try to stay with me, ok?

This was a picture of my first Balloon Races in Natchez...I didn't think I'd ever get to see any balloons, but they finally went up on Sunday...I loved them!!!!



This is a picture of me posing acting like a big girl (holding onto the couch and coffee table by myself)!!!

This is me and my best friend, Hollyn, playing the piano at a store. We went and ate Mexican, then went shopping with our mamas! It was fun, because we got to play with toys in this store. Hollyn's going to have a baby sister, so I'm going to have two best friends!!!
This was the fair at the Balloon Races. I loved riding the horse-ee because Mama said "wee" every time I went up to her!!!



This is my sassy pose! I'm ready for a beauty pageant!!!


This was taken for Joe Joe's birthday! I just love the camera!!!

The end!!!

Learning New Stuff...

I know I haven't updated this thing in a while, but I've been so busy! Just recently I've done so many new things, like saying my first word - "bye bye" and waving. I also said "da da", and Daddy was so proud of me. My newest thing to do now is to go from lying on my tummy and moving to a sitting-up position. I've done all of this in the last week.

While Laney and Joe Joe were on vacation, Dody came to stay with us. Mimi and Poppy had a family emergency, so they were out of town last week. Gabby (Laney and Joe Joe's puppy) came with Dody...I love watching her and Chick run around. I laugh so hard!!!
I've gotten so big lately, because Mommy, Mimi, and Laney keep feeding me snacks...which I LOVE!!!!! All I have to do is make a little noise, and here comes the snacks!!!!!!

I will be 9 months old this Friday. I'm kinda nervous to get on the scale for my 9 month appointment...You know how us girls are with our weight, but I'm sure Mommy will be telling everyone how much I weigh anyway. Here are some recent pictures of myself.
This is my first trip to church at First Baptist Hattiesburg. I've been to church in Vidalia before, but this was my first trip to the church where Mommy and Daddy are members.

Daddy wanted to get a picture of me and him in my "Future Golden Eagle" t-shirt. I only had a diaper on underneath...but we won't tell anybody. Man, I love Daddy's whiskers!

This is a picture of me modeling one of the hairbows Dody made me. It's beautiful!
All you have to do is tell me to smile, and I do it...Mommy tells me I'm going to be such a good listener when I get to Kindergarten!!!


Sometimes I act so shy with the camera (very rare), but I'm still a happy girl. This is one of my favorite outfits, because I'm getting ready to watch some Southern Miss football...Daddy tells me it's great! I'm also wearing another hairbow Dody made.


This is a cute outfit from my friend, Hollyn. It has a giraffe on it, so Dody made me a yellow hairbow to go with it. I"m learning my colors with all of these hairbows!!!

See ya next time!!!!

More Summertime!!!

Here are some pictures from one of my recent trips to Natchez. I went out to eat lunch with Mommy, Dody, and Laney.

Here's one of my fussy faces. Even though it's fake, it still works!!! he he


I liked the pool a little better this time. I had on my leopard print bikini instead of that vest. It was much better!



I was soooo cute!!!





Happy 4th of July! I wore this out to the mall with Mommy, Laney, and Joe Joe. I was very festive! I gave my friend, Hollyn, a dress just like this for her birthday. I hope she likes it!


Mommy and Daddy hope my eyes stay this blue!


My first trip to Kohl's. I loved passing by the toys. I wish Joe Joe would have let me have that rattle!

Mommy puts me on my knees, but I usually fall over frontwards. This time, I paused just enough so that she could take a picture.


I'm just happy sitting on the couch with Mommy playing with my toys!!!


We went to my friend, Hollyn's first birthday! That cake and ice cream looked good! I wish I could have had some.

I still love my ABC game.


I am ready for my bath, but I had no idea what kind of bath it was going to be.



It was my first time in my duckie tub! I also had a rubber duckie in my hand that I got from Hollyn's birthday party. I'm a big girl now!!!

My Summer Fun!

We started off the summer by going to Mommy's friend, Ashleigh's wedding. I was adorable with Mommy and Daddy.


I also spent my first time in Big Church with an outfit Laney bought for me. I wasn't sure about my floppy hat.
I've also taken my first dip in the swimming pool. I had on my bullet proof vest (I mean...floatie). I'm ready to go swimming!!!


I wasn't sure about the water. It was hot with my vest, and the water was hot too! I didn't cry but I didn't smile much either. I might try it again another day.


I just got back from Mommy's favorite Chinese restaurant in Natchez. I love my mat on the pool table. I can lay out all of my toys and play!
