Manito Gardens

On Saturday papa took mom and I to Manito Gardens after a fun day of shopping. We thought that the leaves would be turning in the Japanese Garden, but they weren't. Oh well. I got to see the big fish, which was cool. The rose garden was very pretty - all the roses were blooming! There were two brides there getting pictures taken, so mom and dad were inspired and decided to do some photo shoots with me. Here are the results (nothing award winning, but we figured they're blog-worthy):

Playing in the fountain with papa...


Watching the fish with mom...


Hangin' on the bridge with mom...


And of course, eating grass.



By the way, I have four teeth now. Two on top, and two on bottom. I'll work on flashin' them for the camera for my next post.

A night at the county fair

We went to the fair on Friday night and I had an elephant ear and some cotton candy (crazy stuff!).Here are a few fun pictures from our outing:


Just to prove I was there...



This one is for Grandma O...



"That's a cow".

Curly locks!

I took a bath a few hours ago, and my hair is still curly. It looks like mom took a crimper to it (but she didn't, I assure you. Mom has never in her life even touched a crimper.) Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that when you're imagining what I'll look like in a year, you might need to readjust your view and imagine me with little blonde curls.

On a side note unrelated to my hair, I have a cold. Mom has one too. I had mine first, and then I graciously shared it with her. I'm just that kinda girl.

Milestones

Here's some new pictures of all the cool stuff I've been doing lately...

A few days ago I was able to get up on the edge of my toy basket:



Today I got up on the coffee table all by myself!



I'm learning to do CPR (mom is my dummy). Now, Dad, once I pinch the nose, what's the next step?



I've been playing peek-a-boo with Papa during mealtimes. He tries to hide behind the lift-out part of my tray, but I know he's under there.



On another note, I now have TWO teeth! So yes, that's two teeth, crawling, pulling up on furniture, AND CPR all in the period of about two weeks. Who knows what'll happen in the NEXT two weeks!

Flubbage!

I can grab it in my fist! What is happening?! Where did all this COME from?! And HOW do I get rid of it???

Tooth!

There isn't a picture to accompany this post because the glory of this little tooth cannot yet be captured on film. It's just a little pinhead sticking through my lower gum, but it's there! It found its way through! The one next to it is close behind too. I had a rough time of it on saturday and sunday when the 'breakthrough' was occuring, but I'm doin' alright now. As soon as it is able to be filmed, I'll show y'all a picture of my cute little tooth.

Black and white

Mom had some fun converting some of my pictures to black and white for a picture frame she needs to fill. Y'all have seen them all before except for this one (I think).
