Pulling Up

Bella was so excited to be home and in her own space last night. She squealed for a long time in her crib. She played and played with her crib mirror and talked to her pals on the mobile. The she decided to pull up and just hang out in the crib. She stood there bouncing for almost ten minutes. Granny and Abbi showed up just in time to see it before she toppled down and smushed her face on the railing. What a big girl she is!

Yum Yum

Bella enjoyed her thanksgiving meal at Grandma Harke's house. I think her favorite part was playing with the spoon afterwards. What a goofy girl!

Fun In Troy

Bella and I spent the past several days in Troy. It was so great to get to see everyone. I can't wait until the next trip. I could do without the seven hour car ride though.

Bella Likes Brandon's Hat Too

I CAN CRAWL!

Beautiful Bella

Bella sits up so well now! She is just a joy to watch. I love to get her all dolled up and take her anywhere. We play dress up just to go to the gas station. I never dreamed I would have so much fun with pink clothes and bows. I love my pretty princess.

The Puppy Dog and The Bumble Bee

For Abbi's Halloween Parade at school we dressed the babies up and took them up town. Bella got to be the Bumble Bee and Dawson was a Puppy Dog. Laura and I supported Abbi by wearing some bumble bee antenna's as well. We sure love to dress our babies up!

Halloween makes us sooooo sleepy!

Bumble Bee Dawson fast asleep

Bella the Flower so exhausted nothing could wake her up.

For a second she almost woke up, but then fell back asleep.

The two babies slept on the floor at Starla and Wes's house while we ate Chili.

Bumble bee princess Abbi thought she might join the babies.

Granny has two babies!

It's been so much fun to see Momma interact with Dawson and Bella. Laura and I are quite thankful that we have her here with us to in involved. The babies just love her to death. They love her songs, her funny stories, and even chewing on her chin! Granny is their hero.

Cousins

Pretty babies!

Safari Boy

I love this hat! I think Laura got it at the shower in Troy from Pauline and Cameron. It's too cute! But it would have to be cute because it is on the cutest little boy baby that there ever was.

Leave us alone

Bella and Dawson get tired of us making them play together and pose for pictures. We don't really care though, it's way too much fun!

Me Want Cookie

Bella loves to get to sit and eat a cookie. This is the very first cookie she got to have. What a mess it was! We had to take her to the sink and hose her down afterwards. She isn't quite as messy now when she has a cookie.

Nap Time

Bella and Dawson are both attempting to fall asleep in Bella's crib. Sometimes they just are not sure what to think of each other.

I love to Entertain Myself

Bella does so well playing by herself. There are lots of times when she wants to cuddle and have someone play with her, But a lot of the time she just wants to be left alone so she can discover things all by herself. What an independent little girl!
