Kissing Cousins

Only in WV...

All By Myself!

Forget needing help in the water! I can swim with just my arm floaties:)

It is nice to rest on the rafts every now and then though....I don't want my muscles to get to big!

Bathing Beauty

This is my kini. I really like the water but I still like someone to hold me.

I mean what about sharks?

Sometimes its just safer to stay on a chair and lay in the sun.

Oh My

Jammie day with Momma.

I LOVE bras. I can't wait to wear one. Mommy says I should set my hopes a little higher though. She says it may look big now but when I grow up I may be disappointed. I mean dude it takes up my whole body!!

Peek A Boo!

Growin' Up

Ashley- "What are ya doin' Em?"

Em- "Leave me alone! I'm checkin' my emails!"

ERRRRR

So mommy has been trying for weeks to get me to sit on this stupid tree stump in front of these flowers to get my picture taken. She took me down in my frog overalls, some shorts and then she finally caught me off guard. Sure, sure, let me go down and play in the yard for a while then realize that you have a camera and BAM! Here I am on the stupid stump.

Okay, so it didn't take long for the ham to come out in me:)


Even I have to admit they are pretty cute pictures! She just better hope I don't get poison ivy!

Memorial Day Picnic

I love picnics! You don't have to wear shoes AND you are allowed to get food all over you without getting in toooo much trouble!

Before the Party

Sigh. They were supposed to be going for "happy" but daddy got confused and went for "excited". At least that's what I think it was.....

The Presents

I got a lot of presents for my birthday!



I really loved them all although the bike made me a little nervous! I have wanted one for ever but once I got to sit on it well.....I don't exactly have a track record for being the most graceful girl on the planet:)

The Cake

I got to pick out what I wanted for my party this year since I am a big girl now! I love Dora!

I know, I know, party hats are pretty dorky. Ya have to keep the people who pay the bills happy though!

I may not have the perfect table manners yet, but they have come a LONG way since last year...
No cake mess this year! I use a fork like a pro. Although there was that tea that I spilled all down this shirt about thirty seconds after this picture was taken.......oh well. As they say two steps forward, one step back!

After the Party

After opening all of the presents and eating cake, Keygan, Hadley and I found a big bed to jump on!

Mommy said she couldn't even get a decent picture because none of us would hold still long enough:)

The Loot

I guess the wait wasn't all that bad! My pig got a lot to eat!!!


And I had fun looking for all of the eggs he brought me.

At least I think it's a he.....but maybe the bunny is a she. There was an awful lot of pink eggs!

Waiting on the Easter Bunny

Mommy said the Easter Bunny was coming today so I thought I would wait for him by the tree where all of the other bunnies hang out in our yard.

I started to get a little tired and thought it was rude that he would make me wait so long.....

I mean where was that dumb bunny anyway....

I finally decided to move closer to the mailbox in case he was like the mailman. I never did see that sneaky guy, but he did leave me some pretty nice stuff!

Easter Lunch

This is not an ewwwwwwww my food is gross face, it is my new cheese face. Sort of. Looks a little half hearted doesn't it?

Me and daddy before the food came.....My new favorite thing that I do at a restaurant is when the waiter comes empty handed to the table I loudly say "Where is mine food?!" Mommy and daddy really love this.....

For Grandpa Vineyard

Grandpa HATES snakes!!!!

Daddy found this one while we were raking leaves along the fence. Mommy said we had to get a picture with it to show Grandpa because he would freak out:) The kicker is I wanted to hold it and Mommy told me it could bite but then when Daddy was holding it she told me to pet it. I am not dumb! I said "No, him bite me!" Hello crazy lady.

Bath Time!

This is when Harlie helps give me a bath......

And this is when I help give Harlie a bath! Mommy says we do a good job even though Harlie leaves waaaaaaaaay to much hair in the bathtub. Daddy says we are probably going to have to burn that tub when the two of us get a little older between her fur and my pukes. Oh yeah, mommy wanted me to let you know that it is bleached regularly just in case you were thinking of stopping by sometime and had started to change your mind!

Brushin' My Teeth!

Paint Day!

Mommy and Daddy decided to have the living room and hall painted. That guy had big sheets all over the house.

Poor Kitty Kitty was so confused that she was really easy to catch that day! I rolled her around for like 15 min!

We even got so have shamiches outside!It was so sweet:)

When it was all done I had not done toooooo much damage. Just a messy mouth from lunch and a little paint on my new shirt from tripping over the sheets. Mommy said that was better than she expected so I guess that means I did good!

Miss Cranky Pants

When things are going my way...........

and when they are not. Mommy and Daddy don't think it's a good sign that I already have a princess complex and I am not even 2 yet!

Pizza Pizza!

I love to eat pizza......

It's gooey and messy.....

and for some reason, it just brings out my inner rockstar! "So what! I'm still a rockstar! I've got my rock moves......."
