Baking Christmas Cookies - 2009

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

And here are some video clips of the Lil Baker in action!

All done baking - time to play (and scream)!

By the way, this is how big I was when we made Santa cookies last year!

Goodnight Uncle Ross

One week ago tonight my Uncle Ross went to Heaven to sing with the angels. I tell Mommy when she is sad that "Uncle Ross is MY angel forever!"

Uncle Ross loved me so much. He called me "Belle." He would say, "Hi Belle!" When I would say "I love you Uncle Ross" he would say, "Oh Belle" and "I love you Belle."

Jammin' with Uncle Ross in West Virginia - August 2008

Uncle Ross wrote beautiful songs and this is the lullaby he wrote especially for me in honor of my very first birthday.

Uncle Ross was also an amazing guitar player. Here he is playing his guitar with me when I got my first guitar for my first birthday.

Ross wanted me to learn how to be a great guitar player too. He left the guitar he is playing in these pictures to my mommy so I could play it when I get bigger.

Here are a few more favorite pics:

Breakfast with Santa at the Zoo

This morning we enjoyed a special breakfast with Santa at the zoo. We had a yummy meal in the cozy Rocky Coasts Gallery with the polar bear and sea lions swimming nearby. Then Santa arrived, along with a ginat penguin! We even got to be chaufered to and from the building in a festively decorated golf cart! It was a lot of fun.

Come and Play!

Every Friday I have been enjoying "Come and Play," an open gym time at the Webster Parks & Recreation Center. Today Miss Chris and family are off to Disney for Christmas, so Mommy and I had a special Friday together. This was Mommy's first time ever taking me to "Come and Play." We had a great time. Afterward we stopped at Pizzeria Uno's (I call it Pizza Oh No) to use my free "Kids' Make Your Own Pizza" coupon. Yummy!

Cute Little Ladybug

These pics and clips were taken a couple of weeks ago. The outfit featured was a Thanksgiving-Christmas gift from Grammy Katie.
