Snow Days in Seattle
















My parents and their friends say it never snows like this in Seattle. Over three days we had 10 inches and the City of Seattle's 27 snowplows didn't quite cover our charming Queen Anne hamlet. I haven't been in school (and, thus, parents at work) since mid last week. We snowshoed to church on Sunday and up the hill to the bakery today. I went sledding (or sledging as Daddy says) down a nearby hill and learned snow can taste much like ice cream (use your imagination...and add some honey or jam). When Mommy told me that school may be in session tomorrow, I became as cute and as obedient as I possibly could and tried to convince them they wanted me to stay home with them. I think I won them over.

Thanksgiving in St. Louis
















What a fun time I had visiting family, playing with Oscar Dog, sleeping in my pink tent and bouncing on Uncle Rob's "trampoline" and climbing under his furniture. Every day a new adventure when you are 2 1/2! And, I learned to play the drums....thanks to help from Lydia.

My Baby Brother




I'm excited about my brother coming in to this world in late April. Here are a few pictures and videos of him. Kinda cute, isn't he?

Unicorn Days











Dressing up for Halloween with my schoolmates and my teacher was great fun. I discovered candy, too, much to Mommy's chagrin.

Poolside and Beach Time






















In early November, Mom and Dad took me to Florida to visit family, play on the beach and splash in the pool. I had a great time!
