Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!

As promised, here are the pictures from Munch's first birthday party. It was a blast, although, she was not having her party hat. She didn't really dig in too much to her cake either. Just the icing = ). It was pretty fun. I don't know where the heck I'm going to store all of her toys though, I need to invest in some major storage... Oh, and then, I thought I'd share an "artsy" pic I took = )

Winter Photo Session

I am getting lots of gruff for not updating my blog, so here I go...

We had lots of fun in MN for Christmas and New Years, and my friend Sarah Wolfe took more pics. We also got locked out in the COLD while we were doing the photo shoot, which was not super fun. Oh well, the pictures turned out great!!




We celebrated Munch's first birthday on the 13th. I can NOT believe she's one year old already. She just gets cuter and cuter every day. I haven't downloaded her birthday pics quite yet, so as soon as I do, I'll post again. I know, you'll believe it when you see it = )

At her one year appointment she was 31 in. long and 20 lbs. 3 oz. She just a little bit of a thing.

She is standing, cruising, saying mama and dada, although sometimes she calls me dada. = ) She also says uh-oh, but it sounds more like "uh-uh". Super cute.


She has become a very picky little eater and is asserting her independence more and more (aka throwing FITS when she doesn't like something-great.) We are trying the sippy cup and she mostly has gotten the hang of it, except that she doesn't know how to tip it all the way up when it gets low. Her favorite finger food now is chunks of bananas and cheerios. Yum! She will definitely SPIT out her food if she doesn't like it.

I promise I will be better about updating my blog...Heather... = ) Love to all--

'Tis the Season

Ok, so I 've been having issues with getting my photos uploaded, which is why I haven't had an update since Halloween. SAD! Munch has had quite a few Christmas outfits... the fancy ones I'm saving for the Christmas card, but here's a few of the casual ones. I'm seriously trying to take pictures of every single one. Ha!

First Halloween!

Okay, so obviously I couldn't take munch trick or treating since everyone would know that the candy would be for Daddy and Mommy. Lame. Anyway, we went with some friends to a harvest festival put on by our church. It was fun, there was candy, rides, games, etc, but most of all, just fun to see the costumes and to have a night out to socialize. Munch was so good, and SO cute. Although, one lady did come up to me and asked "How old is he?" I said, "SHE is 9 months" Seriously, just because her glittery fairy costume was blue??! If a girl was wearing a blue princess dress, does that mean she has to look like a boy??! Weird. Anyway, it was fun. Can't wait to do my Halloween scrapbook page. Yes, I'm a nerd.

Costume

Here's Munch's hand made Halloween costume made by Grandma Debbie. She will be a fairy princess. (fitting). She was so darn cute when we put it on. More pictures to follow with mommy and daddy = )

9 Month Check Up

We took Munch to her 9 month Dr.'s appointment about a week ago, and here's her stats:

19 lbs. (50th percentile)
28.5 in. (50th percentile)
I can't remember her head circumference, but it was small, she was only in the 25th percentile for that.

She has had two colds now, seriously one on top of the other, she has a fungus similar to jock itch I'm told on her little bottom, and two teeth have popped through at once. She's kinda a mess, but still smiley and happy amazingly. This just in, she is what we like to call "army crawling". She totally pulls herself across the carpet, but on her stomach still. She's taken one normal crawl "step" though. She's gonna be EVERYWHERE real soon!!! = )

Punkin' Patch!

Okay, so I know I just posted pics from the apple orchard, but a friend and I just went to the pumpkin patch too (thanks Heather, loved it!). We tortured our babies by keeping them in the heat, just for the sake of scrapbooking. I'll be sure and post pics of my pumpkin patch scrapbook page later... it was just TOO cute though!!! = )
