It's Been Awhile

Hi to All,

It's been some time since I posted last. It's easy to get out of the habit of posting, especially when I was lazy about it in the first place! I will begin with an oldie, but goodie photo.

Anyway, we are at the beach, and loving it! Our friends Amy, Brooke and Henson came to play for a few days and we are really having a blast!

Anna Kate is growing so big! She is very wise beyond her 2 years. I feel as if these moments are just passing me by, so they need to be recorded!

My First Haircut

Uncle Richard and Uncle Bill decided that I had a "rat tail" mullet. Upon further discussion, they also condluded that it was the Oneonta in my blood that was the culprit for my redneck hair do. Well, needless to say, my mommy would not have it! She took me to get my mullet trimmed. Have a look at the pics.........

My first PAINTS

Hey Yall,

Graness bought me some paint for Christmas. What fun! Its been awhile since i posted, but its because i have been so busy coloring and pulling stuff out of cabinets and making messes and such. My friend Ella came over this past weekend and we had a blast. We always do. I got a new car that she just loved. We both decided it would be more fun if we both rode at the same time, so our mommies found us both sitting in it together. I love Ella!

Bad Santa!

Birthday Girl!

I really cannot believe that Friday is my sweet precious baby girl's birthday. We had a bash on Sunday, we are still reeling! It took us two weeks to get ready for this absurd party for a one year old. The petting zoo was the biggest hit. There were baby llamas, baby African miniature cows???, pigmy goats. It was awesome. Anna Kate loved it so much. I expected her to have no clue about what was going on, but she was such a big girl. She loved every minute of it. GrandBud gave her a red wagon and we pulled Ella, Henson and AK around the living room. So funny. Henson (Amy's baby) poked AK in the eye and she was pissed! Ella (Christy's baby) decided to kick back and throw her leg up over the side - so Christy of her! She had a fabulous day. I can't believe she is growing so fast.

The second pic is of Ella and AK. For some reason they love touching each other on the head. I just had to post as a follow up to the Auburn game post!

Santa's Helper!

Big Daddy brought me a gift from the Wynn - This Elf Outfit! I look adorable in it even though the hat is a little much. He also brought me an Anne Geddes Baby Doll to match my dress. Nana came over and I tried it on. My mommy even said I might wear it to my First Birthday Party - without the hat it looks like a princess dress.

On another note - I am very close to walking. I am so active - it's hard for me to go to sleep at night! I love to throw my head back and fall into the covers like a drunk person. My GrandBud calls me Virgil because I remind him of an old friend of his that was bad to drink! I think its funny so I continue to throw myself around on the bed just to get attention. I love attention, by the way!

Ain't Life Grand?

Mommy and Daddy took me to the Grand Hotel in Point Clear and I had such a great time! Every day at 4 pm we marched in a parade and watched some men dressed as soldiers shoot a cannon! I wasn't even afraid of the loud noise. My favorite part was when Daddy got a bicycle with a baby seat in the back and the three of us rode bikes around the hotel grounds. We were such dweebs, but I loved it! We also went to the pool, but the Love Bugs are so bad down there, they flew in my mouth, so we didn't stay long.
One night, Mom and Dad took me to the Wash House to eat (Robert Yarborough's restaurant). It was delicious even though we were there at 5:30 for the Early Bird Special. We always go to eat early in order to avoid me having a melt down. Later that night, I got sick, so Mommy brought me home on Friday - Pooh! All in all, I had a wonderful time. I really love to travel! I was even good in the car while I was not feeling well.
