Our little chef

 

Last night Bryant and I headed to Benihana to enjoy his free birthday dinner. Juliet got to tag along and got this fancy new hat! (She kept it on for about 3 seconds, hence Bryant's claw hand in the background)

Just pictures.

Once upon a time we went to the zoo.

 

 

 

 

Just a few weeks ago, Uncle Andrew left for a mission.

 

The Superbowl

Juliet is now two for two in cheering for the winning team. While the blackout killed a little of my superbowl spirit, our get together did not disappoint! Superbowl Sunday could be my second favorite holiday! And now for the pictures.

She isn't walking, but she's a great crawler and or bum scooter. She has mastered the stairs. At first Uncle Andrew taught her to bum scoot down the stairs, that wasn't working for me, in fact it scared me, so we've worked a bit and Aunt Tricia helped and she now goes down on her tummy and I feel so much better about it.  She stands while holding onto everything and walks along things but doesn't trust herself to let go. She has ten teeth I think. She's teethed on her own schedule, she got four molars before her front teeth. She's just our girl that does thing her way. She has started using her spoon by herself, when we let her. She's not quite there with the scooping concept but she dips and eats with the best of them.  She is such a funny kid. She got RSV and an earache this past month but like always spoiled us and was still a sleeper and such a great kid. At the start of the illness she wasn't a big fan of medicine, but now she's a little drug addict, ok maybe not that bad, but I don't have to wrestle her to the ground to give her meds now.  

I think you are mostly up to date on our princess. I will try to catch up the rest of my life later on and add some pictures of the munchkin later.
