picture update

well...i confess that i've been having a love affair with facebook. that is why i have not posted in a few months. i don't really know how to catch up so i think i'll let my pictures speak for themselves. i will say this though, that arianna is growing so much! she has been practicing her walking for a month or so now and is getting it down pretty good. she will be 1 year old in a few weeks! i am hoping to have a party on sunday, 16 march. so if anyone wants to come, leave me a post. it will be mid afternoonish.

here are the pictures...

christmas with family in NJ

4 generations picture (my grandma, my mom, me and ari)

Siegrist family picture (we spent 3 wks. in IN)

Ari liked the ribbons and bows more than her presents

cousin Jeffery (he is 6 wks. older than Ari) and Ari with Dave

cute cousins

Ari cheesin' it

Ari and her uncle Jon (Dave's brother)

we spent a week with our good friends Joe and Ash Wittmer

Ari banging on the dog's dish at the Wittmer's

Dave in all his glory with Guitar Hero

we went to the Field Museum in Chicago and saw lots of cool dead animals

when we finally got home, Ari came down with a 105 fever. we found out she had RSV and i think she also had Roseola. she and I were sick for 2 weeks.

I found Ari asleep in her swing with her pacifier stuck to the side of her face. I have no idea how that happened!

she plays in the big tub now and loves her christmas gift from Uncle Sam, Aunt Ashley, Emma Claire and Josiah

her hair is long enough now to put in pigtails!

we gave Ari her first doll

she loves it!

THE END
