Thanksgiving 2006

We had a wonderful time at your Nana and Grandpa Popes during Thanksgiving. You enjoyed showing everyone your new talent-walking. You had a fun time shopping, eating your turkey dinner (the stuffing was your favorite), taking an old time photograph and playing with the acorns outside. Thanks Nana and Grandpa for a great Thanksgiving!!

Almost a walker

Blakely we bought you some Mooshu trainers and you absolutely love them. They are somewhat annoying, but they are helping you gain confidence with your walking. When we were at US Pizza you would let go of my hand and start walking around the restaurant all by yourself. I'm sure it helped that you had a big audience. We are so proud that our little squeaker is gaining confidence to be an independent walker.

Lights of the Ozarks

We went to the Fayetteville lighting of the square and parade on Saturday night with the Nutt family. You were amazed by the floats, the fun cars that came by and of course Santa. You keep looking down the street to see what was next. The batteries on my camera died so I didn't get any pictures of you with the Christmas lights, only a few of you waiting for the parade to start.

Am I a Dog?

Blakely you have been hiding out in our dogs kennel. You think it is so fun to hang out and close the door. I finally decided to close the cage so you can't get in anymore. Hopefully you will find another hiding place in the house. Funny girl!!!

Fun in the leaves-Family Pics

We had a friend take our pictures today. I have to say it is kind of hard trying to get a 14 month old to sit still to take a family picture. Other than that Blakely had a fun time playing and trying to eat the leaves.

Trick or Treat

Blakely you had such a fun Halloween. Your friend Caroline had a party with all of your little friends. You had such a fun time playing and trick or treating. I have to say you were such a cute little flower. Your friends that were there were: Caroline, a little chick; Oliva Grace, Butterfly; Anna Kate, Leopard; Thomas, super Thomas; Sam, Lion. It was such a fun time. Thanks Keri and Jeff for hosting the party!I also included a picture of our front yard. It has been such a beautiful fall!!
