September

Some pics from the month so far...

this was her first ever bubble bath!


"uhhhhh..."





she loves to line things up








she loves Veggie Tales too!
I have to limit it or she would watch it all the time!
she's always asking for "D-d!"
she has a few "d-d" books and a "d-d" cup.


I had the step stool out and I
turned around and saw this.
She was swinging her feet, eating
her snack and had her books
stacked up next to her
(another favorite activity-stacking books)



she loves when her daddy reads to her


playing with her hair











giving Daddy hugs


showing her fish face

Indiana trip

Last week we took a mini-vacation (a.k.a. long weekend) to Indiana to visit with Dave's family and so Dave could play in his highschool alumni soccer game with his brother Jon. We had a great time, despite the 12 hr. drive there and back and dealing with a not-so-happy toddler who didn't like 12 hrs. in her car seat (can you blame her??) and who is also cutting 5 teeth. However, we overcame those obstacles and managed to have a great weekend. Here's a bunch of pics to prove it!


Dave and Bob grilling and yapping

Ari playing at the soccer field before the game


Jon and Dave. They were on opposite teams. My husband's team creamed Jon's team!


This picture is kinda funny. Taking into account that Dave's team crushed Jon's team, here's Dave showing off his mad skills and playing hard, while Jon is on the sidelines mosying around with a cup of water. hmmm....


Something looks wrong here....what in the world are they doing??


Ari taking a nap on the way home


my husband showing off his sense of humor...


...and his desperate need for a dentist. He made me laugh!
