11 Months Old Today!

Ansley trying to escape the photo! Today she is 11 months old! It is amazing to think that in one month she will have her first birthday! She is such a sweet girl. We are having so much fun watching her grow!

My First Oweee!

Now that I can get places I need to learn to be careful! That mark above my left eye is a big purple bump! I ran into the fireplace bricks trying to get a toy! I also am covered in a viral rash from school. That really isn't bothering me, it just looks bad! Yep....this week is a week of ouchies! Is it Friday yet?

This game is so fun! Mommy rolls the ball and I laugh and then roll it back! The ball is bigger than me so it is hard to catch it! I love to play!

Happy Labor Day!

All ready for our picnic!

Cheering!

My first pigtails! Mommy says they fit my personality!


Last night daddy taught me to do the "Roll Tide Cheer"! I remembered it this morning and was showing mommy so she could take my picture! It worked because they told me that Alabama won their first game of the season!

A New View!

This is me telling mommy and daddy I am ready to get up from my nap!

This is our new view when we go into Ansley's room to get her from a nap. She has crawled to the other end of her bed and sits to wait for us! She ususally is "telling" us to hurry up!

.....and she's off!

Crawling.....

I tried to get some photos of Ansley crawling! Yay!!!! Today after school she crawled across our living room several times! One source of motivation was the phone (that is normally a "no no") today an exception was made! Our little one is finally mobile!

Smiling!

Sweet Girl!

This was Ansley "trying" to wait for cheerios!

This is the shrug she has learned! It melts her daddy's heart!

Ready for another day of school! She really is adjusting well. She only fusses for a second when we leave her. It is reported that she does great all day and then cries when we pick her up! The only improvement area needed is nap time! Poor thing didn't sleep at school at all today! That makes for a tired girl!

Breakfast!

Cereal is so yummy! I love it with yogurt!

Daddy's Girl!

The title sums it up! This week I have learned to look at daddy and give him a shrug while batting my eyelashes! Yep, I am my daddy's girl!

Waking up....

This is me loving my Lovie! This is what mommy and daddy see when they get me up from my naps! They think I am so sweet!

Here I am with a big smile because I know they are about to pick me up!

Saturday's are the BEST!

I got to stay in my jammies all morning! I love playing with toys at my house!

This is me crawling....that's right I can crawl backwards! Mommy was trying put face lotion on me but I escaped! :-)

This is a picture of my teeth! I crunch Cheerios with them! Yummy!

Happy Weekend!

Yay....It's the weekend!

If You're Happy and You Know It.....

Clap Your Hands! Ansley learned this yesterday at school and has not stopped clapping! It is so sweet!

Adjusting Well!

Ansley met her new therapist today! Her session went very well. She continues to make gains! Yay!

She found the strap on her sandal.


We all seem to be adjusting well to our new work schedule! Up at dawn and in bed early! Ansley is having a great time at school. There are lots of fun toys and kids to play with. We do miss Jay, Caleb and Ella though! Hopefully, we will make play group next week! Two more days....

Getting Ready Bright and Early!

This is me brushing my new tooth! Daddy does a great job getting me ready for school!

I love my toothbrush and MY daddy!

More brushing!

I'm ready for breakfast!

My First Day at School !

Today is my first day at school. Dad was a little sad when he dropped me off this morning. I promised him that I would not kiss any of the boys and that cheered him up. They have all kinds of neat toys at school for me to play with. I looking forward to having fun. I made sure that everyone heard my voice as we arrived to class (I think I'm the loudest kid here). I hope mom is having fun at her new class today. I look forward to see her this afternoon so we can compare stories. I Love Mom!

Tu...Tu...Sweet!

Thank you Ruth! We are so blessed to have such thoughtful friends. Last week while Ansley was at Emilie's, Ruth borrowed her for a photo shoot. Now I have tons of beautiful pictures to put on my desk at work! So sweet!

Mommy's Classroom!

These are some preview pictures of mommy's classroom. She still has to hang her curtain and something from the ceiling in the reading corner. She is very lucky to have a brand new school to go to every day!

These are cubbies for her students!

This is the sink area!

This is me playing in mommy's room again today! I am wearing my first pony tail! I go to my own school tomorrow while mommy and daddy go to work!
