I Come From The Land Down Under

Vivi enjoyed wearing her Australia t-shirt from Nan & Grandad.  She got so excited in fact that she decided she just had to go to Australia to see them and some of her other Aussie relatives.  She will be taking her first international flight in March and this is how she broke the news:

7 Months

7 months already!!  Two teeth, crawling, pulling up....our little girl is very active and growing up way too fast.  Here are some photos from September.

This is actually from my birthday in August

I love Cookie Monster, just like Grandad : )

Always smiling and showing off her teeth

Hi Mum

Family Photos

We had Vivi's 6 month photos taken at a "ranch" in Farmington.  The property was beautiful and we are very happy with the results.  Vivi had her serious face on most of the time as she was busy checking out the scenery.  Here are a few of our favorites:

I Can Crawl

On my way back from Sedona, Arizona, I received a call from Mike telling me that Vivi had crawled for the first time!  She was 2 days shy of turning 7 months.  I am so glad he was able to experience that first in her life.  He even managed to get it on film!

Welcome Home Mum!

Mummy went on a girls trip to Sedona, Arizona and the Grand Canyon to celebrate her 35th birthday.  Daddy took care of me for 4 nights and 5 days.  We had a great time together!!  I slept and ate well and never fussed.  We welcomed Mummy home with a handmade sign, some beautiful flowers and a delicious dinner.  Mummy is very spoiled.
