who's that baby?

Since the last contest seemed to go so well, (cheaters excluded) i thought it would be fun to give it another go. who is this baby? Family members may have an edge on this one, but it really isn't exactly a brain buster anyway. Leave a comment with your guess.

Here's a bedtime story "finale".

And a naptime wake up.

dino-titus

Our youngest nephew, Titus, turned 3 years old today!
i had some fun making him a dino-cake (with dino eggs on the side).


He thought it tasted alright - "thanks for my dinso-auw cake, aunt shew-ly"

The gift-opening chaos!

What post would be complete without a photo of the baby of the bunch? She's had enough party for one night. She's just now starting to feel a bit better... we think. She ate three meals today (for the first time in over a week), and downed all three bottles... and they stayed down (for the first time in over a week). So, i think she's over that nasty hump, thank God.

travel bug - sickie doo


It's a good thing she likes the car. She's been such a little trooper with all of our trips and visits. Here she's just turning around to say hi to mommy.
Right now, she's upstairs throwing a fit because she's sick and grumpy. The three of us have been sick pretty much since New Year's, and it's her turn... again.
We're ready to be feeling better any time now.

breaking ground

The time has come! Our daughter is no longer the cute, toothless, doughy giant. She has now become a cute, TOOTHED (with 2 syllables, please), doughy giant. We have been wondering what the heck her problem has been this last week. And now we know. I found out this morning in a rather unpleasant way. I stuck my finger in her mouth (I forget now exactly why), and when she bit down I got the bite of my life. I feel like I should hang a sign around her neck (which is entirely unsafe) warning the curious: "Don't Feed the Baby", or "Beware, Baby Bites". An unsuspecting grandparent or toddler (the only demographics that I've noticed that randomly stick their fingers in babies' mouths) will receive a nasty surprise. It's now like playing with Rin Tin Tin as a puppy... or a 23 pound piranha.
