January… January 27, 2009

 

Who needs furniture when you've got a perfectly comfortable, partially-collapsed box with little metal things sticking into your back?

The Giving Tree and her favorite new boots

Relaxing by the fire with some patty cake.

Again with the boots...

Shedd Aquarium in downtown Chicago: A giant green thing that has something to do with fish.

Tenuously nvestigating the coral display

Mesmerized by the stingrays and sharks

Making friends on the glass floor where she is "standing on" fish. Glad to know my kid isn't the one who walks around with her butt hanging out.

Staring down the grumpy sea turtle

A toast to the queen

Gearing up for daycare to battle The Biter (who bit her and the other kids several times)...

More Pictures from the Holidays… January 2, 2009

These are mostly the same events as seen in my previous post below and whatnot, but I ran out of room on my camera rather quickly and the ones on my first holiday post were taken with my Berry. The ones right here below are of higher quality and there are some great ones. It’s hard to believe the holidays are over now and that it’s already 2009; where did the time go?

All ready for the Christmas party with Jessica (with Ming Ming in tow)

Hanging out with Grandma and gearing up for presents

Christmas morning at her grandparents with a full stocking

One of her favorite gifts from Grandma; and one that has already seen some use (see below)

Another Christmas is underway as we went to Grandma Sue's for Christmas Eve

Bee and Louie had a great time playing (can you believe these two are only a few months apart?)

In her seat at the bar at Grandma Sue's

Bee and her other grandparents at around midnight. Since we were driving to North Carolina at night, we kept her up as long as possible. She's barely making it here...

One great reason to time your travels so you hit the mountains right at dawn

Bee met her great grandparents on Christmas Day

Playing ball in the hall with her greatgrandmother (talk about spry!)

My babies swimmin'
