Happy Thanksgiving!

We ate Thanksgiving dinner at the Cracker Barrel.

Alexa loved the corn bread muffins!

Alexa especially enjoyed the mac and cheese.

We are so thankful for this beautiful little girl.

Playing under the diningroom chairs

Alexa was half laughing and half fussing because her leg got stuck.

She's got her cheerleading outfit on for the big OSU/Michigan game.

Now she's having fun!

She's Walking!

Alexa is feeling her new brother/sister kicking

Look how far she had to walk just for a cookie!

Alexa's First Haircut!

Alexa was so well-behaved at her first haircut. She got to

sit in the special airplane chair! She just looked all around, especially

at the child next to her that was screaming!

This is before the haircut. You can see the whispies behind

her ears that needed trimmed up. After the haircut, her hair

wants to curl up nicely.

A Fun Day at the Playground

It was such a beautiful day for November that we decided to take a picnic lunch

to Alum Creek and then play with Alexa on the playground. As you can see from

the pictures, she had a great time and was worn out by the time we went home.

Happy Halloween!

She was very excited about the small container of Play-Dough she received!

Alexa wants to eat all the candy with the wrappers on!

On our way to go trick-or-treating

Smile, little pumpkin!

Alexa's First Visit at Chuck E. Cheese's

It was a windy day and Alexa seemed to enjoy it!

Keep your eyes on the road, baby!

She couldn't reach the steering wheel with her seatbelt on.

Masen is excited to go down the slide first.

Happy 1st Birthday, Alexa!

The birthday girl is in the cooler!

She just started taking her first steps days before her first birthday.

Look at all those great Halloween costumes!

There's Fred, Pebbles, & Wilma Flintstone and Bam-Bam,

Betty, & Barney Rubble, the Fairy Good Grandmother, and Mr. Slate.

Masen decided to clean up early

It's a good thing Fred wore shorts underneath!

(Sorry these cake eating photos are in reverse order!)
