Second 2009 Thanksgiving

David and Becca brought their cats along with them and the girls loved playing with them with their Aunt Becca.

Uncle Andy and Ryan discovered a new game to play with a deflating air mattress.

Andy putting his best face forward.For our second Thanksgiving feast of 2009 we got to have a nice quiet and intimate dinner with Andy's brother Brian, his wife Kendra, and kids Zoey and Abbie. It was really nice to spend time with them especially since Brian just graduated from Officer Training School in the Army and he and his family will be stationed in Virginia. We were very glad to spend some one on one time with them.

We made it safe to AZ

Here is the brief moment when Angie slept during our drive out to AZ. It is so cute how she is cuddling with her dolly. Normally the drive is 6 hours but this time because of traffic it took us 8.5 hours. Poor Angie cried for the last 3 hours of the drive despite all our attempts to help her. Thankfully we arrived a little late but safely.

Andy made sure that the bed for his brother David and sister in law Becca had some cuddly bed buddies to greet them.

Andy and David were so excited to see each other.

Fun times.

Flossing

Angie loves to floss her teeth with her Mommy in the morning.

How about you?

Christmas decorations at Fashion Island

We spent our family night together looking at the beautiful decorations at Fashion Island.

Angie had a great time running around and looking at everything. We had a great time running after her and trying to keep up.

First 2009 Thanksgiving

Angie wore the beautiful dress that Grandma Yumiko got her to church today.

After church she got to the important task of doing some gardening in her playhouse. She loves her playhouse.

We decided to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family the Sunday before actual Thanksgiving because we were going to be out of town. Angie woke from her nap a little cranky.

She had no problem going right to Grandpa Bob for some comfort and cuddles.

Here is the back of her darling dress.

Sorry, can't help it. She is just so darn cute in this dress.

My handsome husband :)

We did a little dress up after dinner.

It was very nice to get together with family.

Spam Piggy

Doesn't Angie look darling in her Spam piggy shirt that Grandpa Bill got for her? When you asked her where is the piggy she would point to her shirt. So cute, I wish we got it on video.

Happy Birthday Layla!

I was getting ready for the morning, heard Angie whining and found her like this. What a curious little monkey!
Whenever Angie sees a baby she just has to give them a hug and snuggle. This is Angie with baby Katelyn.

Here is the Birthday girl Layla! Happy first Birthday Layla!

Andy wishes Layla a Happy Birthday.

Baby Katelyn enjoys different toys to chew on.

Curious George Socks

Aunt Darby gave Angie some Curious George socks because we all like watching the show. Angie kept poking them all day. They were a real hit!

Jump N Shout with Daddy

We had a great time showing Daddy what Jump N Shout was like. Here is a picture of their "good sides" as they climb into one of the jump houses.

Angie loves slides and is very brave going down them and we feel safe with her doing it in the bounce houses.

She goes down the big slide with Daddy.

Then she convinces Daddy to go again.

I think Daddy was wiped out when we were done.

Peas in a pod.

Angie also had fun going down the slide with Rea and David.

Lightening speed.

A Week Late

Angie would not wear her headband with antenna for her costume on Halloween but today asked to wear both mine and her headbands. So here you have it, just imagine her dressed in her costume. So little and she already has a mind of her own.
