Autumn Weather

Autumn is looming on the horizon!! Today the weather was finally cool enough to enjoy going outside. Here I am waiting for Daddy to come home so that we can go to the park...

Where's my belly? Oh, there it is...

Gotta pull up my pants...

As long as we are waiting, I might as well check the oil...

Daddy's home!! Park Time! (Note from Mom: " ---- Time!" is Alexis' favorite phrase... Gramma Time! Bottle Time! Night Night Time! Daddy Time! Bath Time! etc etc etc.)

Riding on the snail...
all of the park animals look a little bit high and glassy eyed...

The horse is even creepier...

Going down the giant slide with Daddy...

Hunting for pinecones...

Big Foam Finger

Daddy went to St. Louis this weekend for a Cardinals game, and brought home the coolest toy... a giant foam finger! Who knew that a foam hand could be so entertaining?

This is how I point without my big foam finger...

Exercise Ball

Alexis has a new favorite game... bouncing on the giant exercise ball!
This was her expression when I asked her if she wanted to bounce on the big ball...

Bouncing!

Disclaimer... Cort is NOT wearing short shorts. It just appears that way because of the way he is sitting... All cousins and other smart alecks may keep their comments to themselves! ;-)

Happy Birthday Grampa!

Today is Grampa Joe's Birthday! Happy Birthday, Grampa! Here are a few random pictures of me on your birthday...

Crazy bath hair! My hair is getting so long. We are trying to grow out my bangs, which is why I wear bows all of the time.

I put my bikini top on all by myself! I really like to try to put my clothes on without any help. Mom and Dad are glad that I haven't figured out how to take them off... yet.

Brushing my hair... do you notice that I am getting yellowish streaks now? Maybe my platinum hair won't last forever like we had all hoped...

Stormy wants to see what I am reading...
I love books more than anything, and am happy to sit and read a dozen of them at a time. Mommy and Daddy are very glad about that! My favorite book (this week) is Cinderella.

What is she doing in the sink?!!??

Have a good birthday, Grampa! I love you!
