Christmas is Here!!

Christmas is finally here, my first Christmas. My biggest present would have to have been my tooth!! Yes, I am no longer toothless, I got my first tooth on Saturday before Christmas, this was the reason I was so cranky all weekend, at least Mommy thought, ended up being my ears....Nothing a little Antibiotics won't fix though. Got to be well for Santa!! My last week of school had to be festive, here I am getting ready to go.Wonder if any of these presents are for me???Here I am in "The Christmas Dress"- this is the one mommy bought then took back and searched for it in Lexington and Nashville and ended up going back and re buying it, Guess it was meant to be.

On Thursday, mommy brought me home an early Christmas present from Ms Dianne and Keli. It is an octopus that tells colors and rhymes. I really like it- I even took it in the car on the way to Granny's house.
Speaking of Granny's here I am on Christmas Eve getting ready for presents and dinner.

How in the world do I get into this thing??
Is that it??? Where are the rest of the presents, just when I was getting good at it....Maybe Santa will bring me some.

It's Christmas Eve and I am just hangin out waiting for Santa. Here I am playing with my dog my Granny made me. Since I am bowless, I am wondering if this bow will fit on my head.

Santa came!! It's Christmas morning and I have a stocking!! WhooHoo wonder what is inside??


I believe this is mine..

Look what I found...Not sure if my name is on it though..

Christmas morning with Mommy!!

Guess what!! Santa came to my house too!! Look what he brought, a piano!!

These blocks are from Mommy, she made them for me!!

Here I am with Daddy posing in our UK gear. Mimi made me this new outfit. Go Cats!!

Well, its Sunday again!! I decided to do a little digging in Mya's box and look what I found a pink, sparkly and furry outfit to wear. Fitting right!!

Ho Ho Ho

Yes another Christmas post and Yes there are more outfits. This was my Sunday outfit- I look like a little snow bunny.

Here I am 7 months old!! Of course I am posing with Booger Bear. I have changed a lot in 7 months here are some of the things I can do now:

Sit up completely on my own

Reach for toys

Babble about nothing- although it sounds like Mama..

Roll over from tummy to back and back to tummy- although I see now use in the latter - who wants to look at the floor.

A desire to stand and pull up on everything.

Finally I am still toothless.

I also had my 7 months check up and shots. I am proud to say that I am in the 32nd percentile with weight and 50th for height. No worries the Doctor says that is just fine. Plus I have excellent motor skills- does that mean I can drive a car????

"My first Christmas"- as if I didn't have plenty of clothes to rotate, Mommy made me this shirt this weekend.

The Santa suit- complete with a hat...it keeps my ears warm.

Who is that elf under the tree?? Oh it is me Ann Marie...Just checking to see how many of these are for me.

"Who needs Santa when you have Grandparents?"

This the Season

This was third visit with Santa, so far. Every time I have grabbed his beard, wonder if that will put me on the naughty list? Santa came to visit at our church party- hey look at that elf handing me my first Christmas present- oh wait that is my Poppy... I want a new bow and a new outfit and a.......

How do I get into this thing??

The card says Ann Marie.

A new baby doll- wonder what this box tastes like?

Not so good....

OK so here I am on Sunday checking to make sure I have some gifts under the tree. Nothing like matching my surroundings.

Another Christmas outfit and an extra big bow. Amazing how the ribbon can be recycled from the package to make a bow.

But I don't care if I am wearing a cute outfit, I still don't want to go to school...

You know it another hat, this one is a Dalmatian hat, this is pre bow, after Mommy took the picture she thought it needed a bow so everyone would be certain I was a girl puppy.

First Thanksgiving at Granny's

Well, it is Thanksgiving week and Mommy was tired of all the orange clothes so we had to break out and do a little hot pink. I think she was having hot pink withdrawal.Here I am all decked out for Thanksgiving at my Granny's house. There was lots of excitement and of course lots of pictures so bear with me here.Hey Mya, your Mommy makes you wear these bows too. Notice how we both are matching head to toe. Here I am with all the cousins- actually they are probably second or third cousins but that is too complicated so we will just call them cousins. I am really trying hard to escape.Ahhh- getting some lovin from Reese.This seemed to entertain the big kids as well as the little kids!! We all got on and went for a ride down the hall.Did somebody say it was time to eat????What is a fall gathering without playing in some leaves. Actually this was my first experience in the leaves!! Prime picture material...Me and Shelby.Me and Mommy- yes we have on matching vests- it is sickening...But she doesn't have a cool hat!!Black Friday!! And I am ready to go...Got my bib, got my diapers and most importantly got my bow!!
Here we are on Main Street after our first stop.The true definition of "Shop till you drop".

After a nap, Mya came to visit again!! Huggin Cousins...

Why do our Mommy's make us pose so much- notice this time there is a backdrop. I guess they wanted a picture in our matching stripes and polka dots.

As a right of passage at Granny's it was concert time. Everyone at sometime has graced the family with a piano concert. Not sure if anyone can actually play though. Here I am with Mimi.

Granny had her Christmas tree up and I loved looking at the lights. Do I look like a present?

Here we go- Christmas Sunday dress number one. I have four Sundays to get in all my Christmas outfits- here I am beside our tree at home- wonder if any of these presents are for me?

Poppy and me at Cracker Barrel- when is our table going to be ready?
