2 month birthday


So now I am two months old. Motivated by my older cousin Corbin, I now weigh 14 pounds and 6 1/2 ounces (95th percentile) and am 24 inches long (80th percentile). Just for the record, Bethy weighed 18 lbs, 8 oz when she was 12 months old. I'm gaining on her...

Big helper!

As the big sister, I have a lot of responsibilities around the house. I don't know how Mommy would get anything done without me.

I help with the laundry,

Conduct quality control tests,


Baby sit Jonah (sometimes I baby sit on Jonah),

Clip coupons,

Push Jonah in his swing,


And even make sure he enjoys his swing time to the fullest potential.


Not only do I help Mommy (honestly, I don't know what she does around here since I am doing all of the work), but I also help Daddy and Shep.

Daddy can't play the guitar without me;
And who would make sure that Shep's treats tasted ok if it weren't for me?

Well, I have more housework to do so I must be off.

My Cousins


Uncle Ben taught me how much fun it is to play with family. He got me and Jonah ready to play with our cousins, Corbin and McKenna.







Thankgiving!

Thanksgiving is fun! It is a great time to meet new people (and animals) and to spend time with family. This was Jonah's first Thankgiving so it was very special!

Here's Jonah with Grandpa Bob. Like the rest of us, he's not sure what to think of Grandpa Bob.

Since I had met Grandpa before, I decided to have a lightsaber fight with Uncle Ben. (Daddy helped).


Uncle Ben introduced me to kittens. I had never seen such cute little fuzzballs before.



Right before we came back home, we met a friends of Mommy's named Maggie and Felicia. Maggie and her husband have two kids two and they are almost the same age as me and Jonah.


It was a busy trip but we had fun!

Travelin' family (or Jonah sees a new state)

Over Thanksgiving, we took Jonah to meet the Schneiders (our family) in Kansas. This was the first time that Jonah left the state of Colorado. I told him what to expect (no mountains) and assured him that we would be ok.


It was a long drive so I occupied my time by reading to Floopy...

Taking Naps...


And helping with the driving.


All in all, it was a good trip. But I guess I got a little silly at the end:)

I love bears!

Bethy is napping so I snuck onto the computer. Here is me in my swing enjoying my furry friends. Jonah

The return of the giraffe


My sister has told me about you, yellow one. I assure you, you will be no match for me, as you were no match for her.


HI-YA!!! Now, you have witnessed the power of my blows!


Ah ha! Thought you could sneak up and assail me from my right side! Oh, folly! Folly are your notions! For, yay, though my right hand shall smite thee with tenfold the fierceness of my left! Please also note that there is an elephant rattle on my wrist, whose pachadermal power increases the might of my counterattacks all the more!


I see you have now brought your friends! Still I will prevail! Your small army of giraffe brethren is no match for me (I still have the elephant rattle-bracelet thing, after all).

[silence, just a glare]

Regardless of the heat of our battles, I'm all for making friends again. After all, we all need someone who will stick his neck out for us!

Pixie Head


So, it was time again for a haircut. I was getting pretty shaggy.

Daddy went to work with the scissors. I didn't like it as much this time.

Yeah, it wasn't fun.

However, the end result wasn't bad. Mommy was a little sad that my hair was short (no pigtails for a little while), but now I look like a little pixie. Not too shabby.

Now we just have to do something about Daddy's hair...

My new toy!


I got a new toy, and I like it very much! It has beads and twirly things, and all kinds of stuff to play with! Shep sometimes plays along with me.


Yes, I am very happy with my new toy!

Sweet kids

Here is a video of me and Jonah playing. We are really sweet.

Could I be cuter?

Howdy fans! I thought that you may have forgotten how cute I am. I hope that these pictures can be a reminder for you.

And here's one of Jonah too:)

Rollin' Baby

Today, Mommy was trying to catch a photo/ video of how much I love Jonah and instead she caught him rolling over. She said that I taught him that and that she was very proud of both of us.



You can see your yourself at the video below:)
