Happy Birthday (Month) to Me

So my birthday is coming up. Mom and Dad can't believe I'm going to be 2! Check out my birthday party here in Colorado with all my bestest buddies!
Here's some of the gang eating my favorite....pizza!

Not so sure about everyone singing to me.

Mom helping me blow out my candle. As you can see I was going to try another method.

Yummy candle!

And the cupcake wasn't so bad either.

Maybe I could use a little help.

All I really wanted was the icing on top. (Doesn't everybody?)

Present time!

Complete with dress up (love my magic wand)...

stuffed buddies and babies....

and all kinds of other goodies! Thanks everybody for making my birthday so special!

Another birthday down (well, almost). Can't wait til' next year!

Big Girl Room

Here are some awaited pics of my new room.
I'm still in my crib. Mom said she isn't quite ready to convert it to a toddler bed yet. She figures I will probably decide that one as well. Isn't that how it always works?

These drawers are always open. They are my "jammy" drawers that I am constantly taking my pjs out and laying them in neat piles on the floor. Who said my room needs to stay clean?

Wall of pics...crazy how much I've grown huh?

And of course, what room would be complete without a dress-up corner?

Ooh la la!

Work it girl!

Love the Park

Loving slides these days.
But not as much as the swings!

Slow down pigeon!


Drinking from a water bottle (or at least trying to. "I do it!" is one of favorites lately.)

Here ducky ducky! (If it wasn't for Daddy sitting right there, I would have gotten right in with them. We don't seem to have much fear these days.)

Fall in the Rockies

The start of what ended up being a LONG ride in the car. Good thing we had a Barney video to watch! (Notice how my hair started out so cute at the beginning of the trip.)
Stopping for some lunch.

Eating something...not quite sure what though.

Ta da!

Exploring with Dad.

Exploring on my own.

And collecting fun things in my back pack.

Check out the view!

And the colors!

Gotta love Fall.

Go Broncos!

Football Sunday

Gotta support our Broncos!

Barker Days

This weekend, Parker opened up O'Brien Pool to all of the dogs in the area (minus the chlorine). Of course we had to partake.
Aside from the fact that 50% or more were golden retrievers, we were able to eventually find our dogs and take the right ones home with us. Here is a shot of Miles waiting for another ball to chase.

And Charlie doing his thing.

Little Maxi taking a dip.

Although it was a little crazy, a good time was had by all.

We all went home and took a good long nap!

Always the Helper

Helping Daddy take out the trash...

...And taking baby for a walk

Oh the Memories...

Got...to...get...into...this...carseat...carrier.
Why do I remember these toys being a lot more fun than this?

It's a tight squeeze but I can still fit!

Haircut Time

Mom and Dad decided they missed seeing my cute lil face so they decided to face another haircut. (The last one, about this time last year, didn't go over so well.)
Thank goodness for the horsey. I had a ball.

The best part: lollipops!

Mom is still amazed at how I let the lady put the bow in my hair!

Caught

One of my favorite activites: pulling everything out of my drawers.

Summer's Ending

So Summer is offically coming to an end and we have the tan lines to prove it. We have had lots of fun swimming at different pools this season. I have learned to kick and blow bubbles! Can't wait for next year!

Progress!

Ladies and gentleman, I have an announcement to make! I have finally decided to eat.....(wait for it, wait for it)....CORN! It may not sound like much of an accomplishment to you, but Mom is thrilled! She has been trying to get me to eat (any) vegetables for months now (since I was eating them from a jar) but to no avail. If corn is it, then we'll take it..for now. Who knows what I may try next. I am always full of surprises.

Lunch Time Fun

Has Mom mentioned I love to dip?
