Happy Birthday Addison M.C.!!!!!!!!

Happy 1st birthday to my super adorable friend, Addison! I wish you didn't live all the way across the country so I could celebrate with you. Have a fun birthday weekend!!

Bathtime is fun!

I was hysterically laughing at Mommy (you know, those deep belly laughs that I am famous for) as she was pretending to drink water from the bowl that we use to rinse my hair. By the time she thought to turn on the camera, some of the novelty had worn off but she caught some giggles on camera. I am always laughing at Mommy. I think she is soooo funny.

Kristin, remember this guy? Oh the torture you bestowed upon this poor animal. :)

OSU vs Purdue

On Saturday, we had some friends over for the Ohio State/Purdue football game. I wore my Scarlet and Gray but was secretly rooting for Mommy's team, too. The final score was 16-3 (OSU), but hey, at least Purdue got on the board! Thanks for the fun day, Beth, Josh and Robbie!!

Go Purdue...er, Ohio State I mean. GO!!!

Me and Daddy watching the game

Robbie shared his truck with me and let me eat it. Poor Robbie.

Addison, this is how you drive the truck.

Robbie, you play with the truck and I'll check out this motorcycle.

And this one, too.

Oh no, is that Darth Vader crawling up my leg?

Somehow our quiet little party of 6 turned into a rather loud party of 12. Our neighbors saw how much fun we were having and wanted to join us!

Playing ball with Mommy

Walking behind a box

When are Mommy and Daddy going to learn that they really don't need to spend a lot of money on fancy toys such as that shiny Stride-to-Ride Lion of which I am the proud new owner? I am perfectly content with an empty diaper box! I walked all around the kitchen pushing the box. It kept me busy for quite a while as Mommy prepared appetizers for our guests we were having over for a football party.

Dancing

Check out the head shake. It's how I dance.

Standing in my crib

Look how Mommy found me after waking from my afternoon nap today. Needless to say, tonight my crib was put in its lowest position!

Music Class

On Thursdays, I take Music Class at WeJoySing. That's supposed to sound like "rejoicing" when said all together. Cute, huh?!? I love Music Class and my teacher, Mrs. Andrea. My favorite part of Music Class is the big drum. All us kids circle around it and play on it. Sometimes Mrs. Andrea sings to us while playing her guitar. She has a nice voice and I like to watch her. I pretty much just want to sit up close to Mrs. Andrea the whole class, just like in these pictures.

That Good Ole First Tooth

That first tooth finally came through the gums a few days ago. I have been such a trooper through it all. One down, 27 to go!

Fair

Lets see what did I do this weekend? Oh yeah, how could I forget. I spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa F's (for the first time ever!). Mommy and Daddy went to a wedding Saturday and since Grandma and Grandpa wanted to take me to the Fairfield County Fair on Sunday, they thought it would be a good idea to have a sleepover at their house. Heck, a change of scenery never hurt a girl...and boy, a change of scenery it was. Well let's just say that when I heard we were going to the fair, I pictured princesses and tiaras. I thought I would see...well, you know, the "fair"est princesses of all the land. I am a girly girl, after all. I was wrong. Really wrong. This is what I saw....

Bunnies

White Horsies
Brown Horsies Some fuzzy thing that said "Baaa"
Scary goats

A donkey that was even scarier than the goats (If it's not a donkey, blame Mommy. She's more familiar with dogs, cats, birds and other animals of the sort!)
and a big red tractor
that I sat on

So I didn't see any princesses and if you must know, I didn't get any cotton candy, elephant ears, or snow cones, either. But, aside from all that (and the scary goats and donkeyish thing), I had a great time at the fair and can't wait 'til next year! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a fun day!

Congrats!!

Aunt Julie, Uncle Josh and Cousin Noah - Congratulations on being the new owners of this beautiful house! We can't wait to come visit and play in all of that space!!!

I wish

Mommy speaking here.....
I wish I was this happy when I woke up in the morning. So glad my baby is a morning girl! Of course if I went to bed at 6 every night, I might be a morning girl, too!

On a side note, is it really sleeper season already? Please say it isn't so!!

Visiting Daddy at work

Today I went to visit my Daddy at work. Mommy and I had lunch with him and then we went up to his office to meet lots of his wonderful co-workers. I wish I could go to work with my Daddy everyday. I know everyone in his office would appreciate listening to me scream sing all day, too. :)

Kisses for Max

Cruising

I am starting to cruise a little bit. I am very determined, just not too confident yet!
