We're back!

We are back from sunny Arizona. We took tons of pictures and mini videos. I will post more when I have more time, but wanted to give you just a hint of what's to come!

Amelia's Second Fashion Show Part 3

As promised... here's video of Amelia's Fall Fashion Show!

Amelia's Second Fashion Show Part 2

Here's a slideshow and some video.

Amelia had a great time at the fashion show. As she waited for the show to begin, she was walking all around the store. We went from the kids department to lingere to formal wear. Needless to say, I think she was getting pooped from all the hub-bub before the show even started. She walked the cat walk perfectly. She started off with holding mommy's hand, but then wanted to hold both of them. But she posed perfectly and had a great time. Our second time around was the final walk through. At the end, she walked right up to Brad and gave him a big smile on the video camera.

After the show, we went out to lunch with Grandma/pa, Aunt Margaret, Uncle Mike, Chris, Jenny and Audry. Amelia was so pooped she fell asleep. She slept through nearly the whole breakfast.

We can't wait for the next fashion show in the spring!

Amelia's Second Fashion Show Part 1

Amelia had her second fashion show at Nordstrom today. She was a sensation.

Here are a few photos. Will post more later. Thanks to Jen and BFF Kendyl for helping take these pictures!

17 Months!

I can't believe my baby is already 17 months! Crazy that it's gone by so fast. She continues to surprise us every day. Just yesterday we were grocery shopping and she's waving and talking to everyone in the store. Then at home, we were watching Calliou and at the very end the cartoon boy says "I'm Calliou... that's me!" And at the same time Calliou says, "That's me", Amelia goes "ME!" and points to herself. She knows the song now. Too cute.

Randoms

Just a few random pictures!

Notice what the shirt reads? "I make the rules"

I finally managed to get Amelia to sit still long enough to put her hair in pig tails!

Hi!

Amelia has been learning new things with leaps and bounds. She now says in the morning "blankie". She says "Thank you" on a regular basis and is learning "(you're) Welcome". She also has learned to tell us when she is thirsty by running to the refrigerator door and banging on it. We've now moved her sippy cups to a low shelf in the fridge so she can get them herself. In addition, she does the opposite when she's done drinking. She says "cup". Loves to climb the stairs. Amelia lets me brush her teeth and then when I am done doing it, she loves to brush them herself. She has a fascination with shoes. She enjoys taking a shower now. Bathtime is full of splashing and getting mommy and daddy wet with her squirting animal toys. She's growing with leaps and bounds!

The Loot!

Here's Amelia and her pile of halloween loot!

Amelia's Costume

Here's video of Amelia parading around in her costume at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Happy Halloween!

We went and saw Witchy Poo for Halloween. We had a great time spending halloween in Albany. We got to trick or treat with cousin Audry, Auntie Jenny, Grandma and Grandpa.

Here are some pictures of our fun day. The first few pictures were when we went Trick-o-Treating on Friday night. We had to go to some of our friend's house here in the area since we wouldn't be around the next day. Enjoy! Video to come! Stay tuned!
