Happy New Year!!!

"Here I am playing for the first time with new friend Cayden. "

"Wait a minute...no one told me I would have to share my toys..."

Growing with Mr. Bear - 10 months

First Christmas for the Scott Family (with Caroline!)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve Eve dinner with the Begleys

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve Eve dinner with the Begleys. Everyone was so nice and played with me lots!

colored sugar and sprinkles...

One of my new favorite activities is crawling over to the pantry to find fun treats to play with. I like to shake the colored sugar and sprinkles, and pull the cupcake sleeves out of the box. Who needs toys when I have this stuff to play with!

Christmas jams

Here I am in my Christmas jams and my first bow. (I don't have a lot of hair yet!)

Meeting santa...

I"ve been good...

"I promise, Santa. I've been a good girl this year."


"And I just love our Christmas tree! I get so excited when I see it all lit up!"


"While Mama is watching, she lets me carefully pull off an ornament or two..."


"But...she says 'NO!" when I try to eat them. "
"Oh Santa - that's only a little bit naughty.
I'm trying very hard to be good. Will you still leave me a present under the Christmas tree? "

Christmastime is here!

Here's our tree!


...And the stocking that Grandma BB made for Caroline proudly hung on our new mantle...


"I just love ornaments!"

Here I am standing all by myself!

Thank you, Mom, for letting me borrow your camera while mine gets fixed!

Look at me...I can stand without holding on to anything!

Yikes! No pictures!

I am SO frustrated! Our camera all of a sudden is not working! Because of that, I can't show you pictures of how the little boo excitedly stands by herself for about 30 seconds without hanging on to anything. OR how she held the tall handle of her train, started pushing it forward, and then started walking with it. (Yes - while pushing the train, she can walk by herself!)
We hope to fix the camera soon. (Hmmm.. do you think there will be any Kodak moments during her first Christmas season?)

And for my latest trick...

I stood all by myself today for about 25 seconds without holding on to anything!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...

We got about 14 inches of snow with this past big storm. Our first big snowfall of the season. The little boo was fascinated...

And candy canes are pretty cool...even with the wrapper on.

Dancin'

I'm practicing my dancing skills...
