I LOVE PAPA!!!!!

Vegas - Part Deux

While in Vegas, Mommy, Papa, Auntie Val and Auntie Ann took me to the strip. How cool was that! I loved all the people, fountains, sights, and sounds. It was amazing!






Mamie, Papy, Auntie Val and Uncle Dave treated Mommy and Papa to a night out on the town. For some reason, they just don't get out much back in Michigan, not sure why. Anyway, They went to a delicious buffet at the Wynn Casino, and then saw Le Reve! They had a great time. I decided to give them a break too and slept in till 7 am instead of 5. I know, I am a sweetheart.

Vegas Baby!

Last week, Mommy and Papa took me to Las Vegas!!! It was a loooong trip, but totally worth it because I got to meet my new little cousin Talia. Isnt she cute??? I can't wait to teach her how to sit up, crawl, screach at the top of her lungs, play with a ball, and of course drool. Although I think she is already learning how to drool on her own.

Here is Talia with her Daddy and Mommy, Uncle Dave and Auntie Val. Auntie Val and Uncle Dave were so happy to see me - they hadn't seen me since I was 10 days old! We girls certainly outnumber the boys. GIRL POWER!!!

Here are Auntie Ann, Auntie Val, Mamie, me, Mommy and Talia. Mamie and Papy played with me a lot! Here they read me one of my favorite books, Goodnight Moon. Having a French Grandma and a Grandpa from Texas makes story time very interesting! Papy played with me a lot - he made me laugh so much!

Auntie Val had a hard time believing that Talia will weigh as much as me someday real soon. Auntie Ann read to me often, especially my favorite Peekabo book. But here she is rocking Talia to sleep. Uncle Dave played Peekabo with me - but he would never let me catch him.

Uncle Dave is a wee bit competitive. Talia sleeps a lot! I did a good job of waking her up when I thought she was missing out on some fun.

But when awake, Talia is a little cutie pie who loves to smile. She is very alert too!I really liked Talia's bouncer....I kept asking her to get out so I could play in it but she didn't know that what I meant when I said "dadaddada....bababububub". Maybe she speaks French?

On Saturday it was 75 degrees outside so we went for a walk in Mamie and Papy's neighborhood.

Papa misses the mountains... I can see why. We enjoyed our visit. But there are more pics of my first visit to the Strip! Stay tuned...

Congratulations Joe and Nancy!!!

Our wonderful neighbors and good friends Joe and Nancy became grandparents again! Todd and Tonya Babiasz welcomed handsome Silas Joseph into the world on Saturday. Silas Jospeh has two big sisters, Annie and Hanna, who are thrilled to have a new brother. Congrats to the entire family!!! I can't wait to meet Silas - he is sooo cute!!!!

Congratulations Andi & Wayne!!!!

My Mommy's good friend Andi had a baby girl on Saturday! My new little friend's name is Cameron Sophia Wright. I hope I can call her Cami - I love that name. Here are some pics of Cameron and her family. Oh and congrats Evan on becoming a big brother!!!

My Very First Halloween

My first Halloween was a lot of fun! First, we were invited to a party at the Zonder's with all my favorite neighbors. Check out the cool kids table - can't wait to sit there in a couple of years! But I didn't feel left out cuz Allie chased me around the house.

The adults had a lot of fun as always...some more than others!!!!

But the neatest part was hanging out in the basement with all of the kids. The big kids formed a band and me, Mommy and Faith were the backup dancers. The not-as-big kids played with Hanna's hamster.

Finally it was time for trick-or-treating! And I was dressed as a cow!!! MOOOOO!!!!

We had some early trick-or-treaters - my favorite friends Allie, Grace and Faith!

It was awfully quite at first, so we went over to Joe and Nancy's and spent time with Mary Babiasz, who calls me "buttons". I adore Mary! But even she couldn't stop me from crying - I was tired of being a cow. So Mommy took off my costume. But I was still dressed in Halloween gear so the spirit was there! Karen B had a lot of Halloween spirit and some other spirits too....

So I didn't officially go trick-or-treating. I sat on Mommy and Papa's lap as they sat outside and handed out candy to the trick-or-treaters. I had so much fun! I mean, why go trick-or-treating? It's not like I can eat the candy. So it was way cool to see all of the costumes and toss candy in pillows and sacs. I had fun! But I grew tired and was ready for sleep.

But not before crawling around the living room once inside and snuggling with Papa.
