First Time Bowling!

Bowling, bowling, bowling

I roll the ball down the lanes

Bowling, bowling, bowling
The gutter has become from friend

Bowling, bowling, bowling
It’s time to try again

Bowling, bowling, bowling
I push the ball down the lanes

Bowling, bowling, bowling
Crash, boom go the pins

Bowling, bowling, bowling

I jump up a scream

Bowling, bowling, bowling
Hanging out with Friends

Bowling, bowling, bowling

This is so much fun!

15 Months Old and Growing Bigger

Walking....

Talking.....

Screaming....

Crying.....

Singing....

Dancing.....

Playing.....


I'm 31 inches tall and weigh 24.5 lbs.....exactly where I should be.

I have 11 teeth now.....driving mommy and daddy crazy with those 4 nasty molars coming in at the same time.

I'm a little goof.....(to which I just giggle and laugh)

I'm a little monster.....(to which I growl)

I'm a contradiction.....I play with those trucks....but I also adore playing with purses and dolls.

But mostly I just enjoy being around people.

Fun in North Florida

Visiting my friends again for Cody's High School Graduation.....

They just adore me.

If I was playing with something, Cilverlyn and Emerald would come out to play with me. When I was crawling, Emerald would get on the ground to crawl instead of walk to be at my level. They would bring me items to put in the jar and show me what to do. When I started playing with a truck, Canyon went to his room and brought me lots of other trucks to play with as well.

I feel so special....and I love them too! I can't wait to see everyone again in October, if not before.

Just Having Fun Around the House

Grandma and Grandpa Howsmon got me this horse for my birthday. It sings a little country "yee haw" song that drives daddy crazy but it's fun to push around the house.

Mommy had to get a gate recently to keep me from crawling out to the dog food bowl and enjoying a snack. I don't like my jail time at all. But, like Mommy and Daddy say, "as long as this is the only jail I ever see things will be okay." Guinness doesn't like the our new gate either :(

Earth Day 2009

Earth Day, celebrated in the US on April 22, is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. I celebrated with Mommy by planting my own seedling in a pot that I can watch grow.

My First Swimming Pool.....

I now have my own little blow-up pool in the backyard. So, now when it is hot in this Florida sun I can cool myself (and mommy and daddy with my antics) in the water. I think splashing in the bath is fun but this is even better. Daddy sprays me with the hose which makes me giggle. I can even slish-splash and slip and slide in the pool and then climb out and play in dirt and get right back in the water. It's gonna be a fun summer!

Happy Easter!

Easter was a day for family. First Brunch at Grandma & Grandpa Peirson's and then dinner with Grandma & Grandpa Howsmon. I got my first Easter basket and bit the ears off my first chocolate bunny. Grandma Howsmon got me this card that sang "In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it. You'll be the grandest in the Easter parade." I just loved opening the music card to dance all night long.

It was also a day to discover all the fun (and breakable) things that all my Grandparents have in their home. Grandma & Grandpa Peirson have this glass curio cabinet with lots of pretty colorful things and a mirror I can see the "baby" in behind it. Grandma & Grandpa Howsmon have pictures and candles everywhere that are fun to move around and take down from the shelves. It was a day to get into everything I possibly could. That was....and continues to be.... the absolute best!

Musically Inclined????

Do you think I could be musically inclined? It's too early to know but I absolutely adore all types of music and I dance to everything.....even TV theme songs and commercials. But, I have come to love going to Grandma and Grandpa's and playing the piano cuz then I get to make music myself. I climb around it trying reach the keys and bang away whenever I get a chance.

Can You Believe It's Been a Year???

The Dunedin Highland Games came around again. Dunedin was my first Scottish Highland Games. Last year was sooo hot, Mommy only brought me down to say "Hello" and then we went right back home. This year was an entirely different story. I played..........marched in the parade...........danced............and in general had a wonderful time with family and friends. We even ended up a Flanagan's at the end of the night for more dancing and fun.

Zephyrhills Highland Games

Me with A Few of My "Uncles" and "Grandpa's"

It is that season again but it is so much fun I can't complain too much! I get to enjoy the sun while spending time with family and friends. This time I even got to see Halee dance and kick my legs to the bagpipes! What fun!!
