Thanks, Grandma!  I need a little help balancing today,
but just you wait!!!

Christmas at Great Grandpa Reeder's house

Great Grandpa Reeder likes holding me!

Fun times with Grandpa Reeder and Aunt Lisa...they REALLY know
how to make me laugh!!!  And I really don't mind being
the center of attention :-)



While we don't have an audio of this scene...Great Grandpa Reeder is
playing polka music -- instilling early an appreciation for
my Czech Bohemian family background.

6 month check up - -

The numbers are in......18 lbs and 27 inches tall!

A milestone....


Wait for it...wait for it... Ta da!!!!  I've actually been turning over
since the day after Thanksgiving, but we've just gotten around
to posting :-)

A little Chtistmas preview...Ho Ho Ho

The scene:  Mom gets inspired to take Santa photos before work one morning. 
She dresses me up in festive holiday attire (Santa hat and all) and lays
a red blanket against the wall as an 'Olan Mills' backdrop.  She then
attempts to get me to sit up unassisted and smile...all at the same time.
This was the product...not bad :-)

Weekend Fun!

Mommy's friend Karen visted this weekend from Denver.  The weather was perfect!
We took her for a walk around Lady Bird Lake, followed by a yummy lunch at Maudi's...
becuase no trip to Texas is complete without some authentic Tex-Mex. We were even
able to catch a little bit of the Big 12 South game with Daddy (a sore subject today)  

Mommy and Karen were even able to have a nice girl's dinner...
after I was sound asleep, of course!  
Thanks for the visit, Karen!  We hope to see you again soon!

Noah's first playmate :-)

Noah has taken a liking to Lily, his first unofficial playmate.   Lily is good about sharing her toys, Nap Nanny and books with Noah...although she sometimes does become demanding of Melody's time (ahem..as does Noah) Melody, the nanny,  is terrific with the two little ones...we really lucked out!
Btw, Noah is two months younger than Lily, but he has already surpassed her in the weight category :-)
She's a precious, petite little girl

A Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Helmers and a trip to the Texas cabin


Grandma has had some practice in this area...Thanks Grandma for keeping
me sufficiently nourished!

My cheeks can't seem to get enough food - - maybe some needs to be diverted to the dimple in my elbow


I love my Grandpa Helmers !

Our first 'dinner party' at the Texas cabin.  Construction begins in February!

Thanks, Susan for the hat and sweater set.  I've received many compliments thus far! 

Susan, the J&J coffee sweatshirt has been put to good use on a few cool, crisp autumn days!
