My friend Lily came to see me...!

Here we are comparing feet size. As you know I'm 4.5 months older than Lily, but we have the same size feet..? This will be nice when we are older, we can share shoes!!!
Here I am holding Lily's hand. It's nice to know that before she was born, she had a girlfriend, me...I'm so excited. I can't wait to grow up wtih her, she is really a special friend.

Our mom's were holding us up so that you can all see, I'm sitting, but I'm taller! Hard to believe I was once that small...my mom says it seems like yesterday.
Lastly Here is my mom and I...notice my cheecks are flushed, I've been teething. I didn't really have any problems, no fever, not really cranky, but just a little warm. Sprouting little teeth is hard work. So is being this cute!

Mommy and her friend Dory...

Along with myself and my friend Francis.
We were at my mom's friends baby shower. This was in March of 2006...you can tell by how small I was, ah memories. Now mommys friend Tracey is a mommy too. And with all mom's friends having babies, I should never be short of friends.

The ladies of the house...

With me and my mom in the house, my poor daddy doesn't stand a chance.
As you can see by the look in my mom's eyes, she is ressuring me that her and I run the show! ;-) She was saying "that's right hunny, just remember, when all else fails, bat your pretty brown eyes at daddy, it melts his heart everytime."

Guess who's wrapped around my finger?

My daddy! He is the most important man in my life. He loves me no matter how poopy my diapers are, how cranky I can be, or how long of a work day he has had. He shows me every day just how special I am, and how much he loves me.

It's true what they say...there is a speical bond between a daddy and his little girl.

In my birth-day suit...sort of

My most favorite toy!

This is my gym...it's so much fun! I play with this for hours...well maybe not hours, I do get hungry, very often. But if I didn't have to eat so frequently, I could probably spend a long time playing...but then my mom and dad want to hold me, so there again...I get disrupted. Basically I get to spend about a 1/2 hour at a time playing, which isn't too bad, considering I'm only 5mo old...and my attention span is still very short.

Getting ready to crawl...

And I've found my froggy toy again...if only I could reach out and grab it!
Oh wait, I've almost got it!

As you can see...soon dad will have to install those fancy latches on the cabinets, cause I'll be crawling before he knows what hit him!

Are these all mine?

It's like a "where's Waldo," in Bella's room..."where's Bella?"


All these toys belong to me...?
For now, I'll play with the toys I can really get a hold of...this frog will do nicely!

Good Morning Baby Girl!

I love snuggling with my pink teddy blanket. It's soft and silky, and makes a nice companion at bedtime...
