Nanue's Good Taste and Other Bits

First let me just say that Nanue has pretty much kept my baby clothed so far. She is always out looking for something cute as well as helping Rebekah pack up hand-me-downs of Caroline's so that I can receive 5 Fed-ex boxes of clothes at once. And the clothes are always so cute. Here is a little outfit that I just love so much.

Georgia is now in love with swinging. She sees the swing and starts bouncing up and down and reaching for it and saying "unh unh unh." I know that doesn't sound much like swing to you but we are getting there.



She is also pretty in love with her grandmamma.

On Saturday and Sunday morning it has kind of become standard that Matt gets up with Georgia and I get to sleep in until about 9 or so. This morning while Georgia is napping and Matt is at the store I thought I would update the blog so I get the camera, and much to my horror, find this picture from this morning:

I dare you to double click it and see how really gnarly that thing in her nose is. I actually had a physical reaction when I saw this picture and wanted to scrape the computer screen until that chuck of either booger or oatmeal came out of her nose. Isn't Daddy so fun.

And this is a picture that I guess indicates she was ready from me to get up.

I also wanted to mention that she has taken some steps this weekend into the void. Last weekend she started moving from item to item by taking a couple steps and this weekend she will just let go and head out into the great unknown. Right now she doesn't get more than about 3 steps but I have a feeling that will change sooner than I am ready.

The Goings On

Georgia got to play with a turtle we found on the road this week. She tried to eat its foot at one point.

Pigtails are a rarity lately due to the high level of movement Georgia possesses but I did manage these and thought they were photo worthy.



Grandaddy Denny turned a little older on May 4th and we all had a very good time celebrating.





Georgia has a new found fondness of strawberries and a desire to eat them on her own.



And just for fun, a picture of Granny's rose in bloom.

Holy Moth Balls Batman

This huge moth was hanging out on our sliding glass door last night. I love my camera.

So Much Cutness

Monkey Party

Here are some shots from Georgias first birthday party. She had a blast and did really well with all the comotion.

Happy Birthday Baby

Georgia turned one yesterday and got to have some cake and ice cream to celebrate. We had a small family only party and it was lots of fun. I put together a slide show for my baby girl and want to share it with those of you who have been keeping up with her through he blog. A word of warning, it is about 20 minutes long but all who have seen it said it was totally worth it.

I will post party picture soon.

Pirates and Bubbles

Aagrh. I've got me hook.

We blew bubbles for Georgia for the first time this week and all she wanted to do was eat the container and wand.

My Glory...

...What big ears you have...

...What a big tongue you have...

...What big teeth you have...

...What a fury underside you have...

...What a good sense of humor you have...

...What a great dog we have!

Easter

The hunt was on and all the siblings were there except Billy, who was scared of all of our egg hunting prowess. Georgia examined my loot.

And played with some loot of her own.



Here she is showing off her egg to Matt and Christy (who is back for good thankfully).

This is right after Christy fell off the bench.

I only had to shove Vivian out of the way a couple of times in order to claim the eggs I spotted first.



Mary set up a baby hunt inside for Georgia with all of my old stuffed animals.

Matt didn't miss a thing.
