Silly

Snow!

November

Zoe is 16 months old now (soon to be 17 months), she says new words every day, and has started potty training herself!.... sort of. I will say I had very little to do with it, but now that she's made it clear she's ready, we're going with it.

Here's a few pics from the past month, right up to Thanksgiving

(she'll wear a hat for like 2.8 seconds, Elmo helped me get a picture)


Getting used to using her spoon

She suddenly likes crawling under things...

...and into other things.


With Daddy (like the new face she makes when you tell her to smile?)

By far the best example of the smile face...

Standing within five feet of the Christmas tree and -not- grabbing ornaments and trying to throw them. Amazing.

Hanging out with Daddy on Thanksgiving


With Aunts Jackie and Rachael. I think Rachael is trying to make her sea sick and Zoe is thinking 'you know, one day soon, I will be bigger than you...'

Look at that face. She's definately not up to something... (she likes 'shopping' in Aunt Jackie's closet)


A Thanksgiving walk... trying to get Z to fall asleep

It didn't quite work out as planned...

Halloween

I'm a little late posting these, but here are a couple pics of our little ladybug (and friends!) from Halloween.


Zoe and her super cute clown cousins, Max and Sam.



The little ladybug



The whole crew - Rylee, Zoe, Sam, and Max. I think this is as still as four babies will sit for a picture.

15 Months!

We had Zoe's 15 month check up today, she is now 34 inches tall, and 27 lbs - two inches taller than her 12 month appointment! and a little lighter than last time.

Saying hi to everyone who checks out her blog:


Playing in the leaves


Tree!




Hanging out with Mallory again


The girls having fun

A few new pics

Just a few from the past month...



















and a couple that I borrowed from Rylee's site..


(I love this one)

Time flies

I can't believe it's been a month and a half since I last updated! We've been keeping busy enjoying the last bit of summer. I'm back in school now, but Zoe is doing her best to make sure I spend just as much time (if not more) reading her books as I do my own ;). She is constantly showing us what a smart little thing she is, and also what an active little thing she is! She picks up new words every day now, and usually has no problem letting us know exactly what she wants. She's up to 12 teeth, and it looks like more are on their way (always). Some of her favorite things right now are fruit (ANY fruit), books, elmo, trees, and of course her family and friends.


Here are a few pics from the past couple months (I'll make sure I get in here to update more often!):

Perfecting the pout





Pizza night


We spend most thursday mornings at the farmers market at the park. Zoe loves the swings...























Zoe's buddy Mallory has been coming to hang out once a week





Double trouble


I guess elmo looked thirsty


Book time with daddy


More Mallory time!








Aww
