Pictures with Boyfriend

We attempted to take Christmas pictures right before Thanksgiving. It didn't turn out as planned.

My boyfriend fell asleep before we could get started. Auntie and Mommy had to dress him in his tux while he was napping.

Mommy really wanted to get a nice family portrait so she could use it for our Christmas cards. I wasn't being very cooperative. I kept trying to crawl away so I could go play. This was the best one we got.

My Grandma Chau bought be this pretty dress to match my beautiful ruby red slippers my Aunt Heather bought me for my birthday.

I had to take a break from the photoshoot and get a quick snack. Poor Mommy was so desparate for a nice family photo.

I look like such a big girl in this picture. It's Mommy's favorite.

When my boyfriend finally woke up, he kept pulling my hair. Auntie and Mommy said that's what boys do when they like a girl. Silly boys....

How embarrassing. We have no clothes on.

The parents thought it would be cute to try to get formal pictures of me and boyfriend. We weren't too happy about having to pose and hold still for the camera. Overall, it didn't turn out too bad. What do you think?

Halloween 2007

This was me last year on Halloween. I was a black cat.
I was almost 2 months old. Daddy and Mommy said I was so cute and tiny.
I'm a BIG girl now....Crawling all over the house and pulling things off shelves and tables.
Someone has to keep Daddy and Mommy on their toes. Hehehe....

Halloween Party

We went to a Halloween Party tonight. Nana bought my costume. Can you guess what it is?

Want a hint? Here's the view of the back of my costume.

I'm a Fairy Princess!!!

Grandma spent the morning with me so Mommy could get some chores done. She helped me put my costume on.

Me and Nana and the party. I'm really tired and not
in the mood for pictures.

Grandpa and Cousin Patrick. He was an elephant. He had a big ears and a trunk but took the head of his costume off.

Pumpkin Patch 10/19/08

This was my first visit to a pumpkin patch! We didn't go last year because I was just a newborn and Daddy and Mommy were still trying to figure out my schedule. Look Daddy, I want this pumpkin!

Mommy and I are standing in the Pumpkin House. Look at all of those pumpkins. I've never seen so many in my life.

Here we are in front of the Corn Maze. I had a great time. Can we please come back next year?

Baptism 09/07/08

I was baptized on 09/07/08 at Peace Lutheran Church. It's the same church Daddy and Mommy got married in 2 yrs ago.

Pastor Kempe reading a prayer. I had just woken up from a nap so I was very cooperative.

Here we are with my Godparents, Uncle Darius and Auntie Monica.

We had a nice lunch after Church at Nana and Papa's house.

Hanging out with Daddy in the backyard.

Cousin Patrick eating ice in the backyard.

My great-great Uncle Lloyd and Aunt Mary gave me a baby grand piano to celebrate my baptism.

Cousin Max is showing me how to play the piano.

Cousin Patrick got too hot and took off his shirt to show off his muscles. Here he is trying to play my piano.

Happy 1st Birthday Natasha!

I can't believe Natasha is 1. 1 year and 15 minutes ago, we were in the hospital. I was pushing after 14 hours of back labor. OUCH! We had a b-day party for her last Saturday. I will post pictures later.

Meet My Boyfriend

This is my boyfriend Darius aka Little D aka Junior. My Godparents came over to visit so we can play. He is only 4 months old but he's almost as big as I am! Way to grow Junior!


Because he's still a baby, he goes to sleep really early. Here I am trying to wake him up so we can play some more.

Happy 1st B-day Cousin Patrick

Happy Birthday Patrick! Cousin is now 1 year old. He's 5 weeks older than me and started walking a couple of weeks ago.

Uncle and Auntie invited family and friends over to their beautiful home to celebrate. That's Patrick in the picture wearing his birthday crown as we sing "Happy Birthday" to him. Note the delicious cupcakes in the background.

Nana gave me my first taste frosting from the cupcake. I'm not a big fans of sweets...for now.

Me and Daddy having a beer. Ok... so I wasn't drinking beer, just holding on to it for Daddy.

Me and Mommy hanging out at the party. Better take some notes and start planning my party Momma. I'll be 1 year old in 5 weeks.

First Trip to the Zoo

Daddy and Mommy took me to the zoo last Sunday. Nana and Papa came too. Watch out Daddy! There's a big Polar Bear behind you!

Mommy carried me around the zoo. We saw a tiger, monkeys, wolves, sea otters, a reindeer, tapirs, a lot of sea creatures, and many more.

There were 2 big walruses. They are such great swimmers despite their size. They kept swimming by the observation area to say hi to me.

There were so many fun animals to look at and learn about. I had to take a quick nap to rest and recover from all of the excitement.

Do you see the elephant behind us? They are so big!

This is one of my favorites. This shark looks like it was resting while his friends were swimming around.
