Hallelujah!

Yesterday I was baptised at Highland Park United Methodist Church. It was a great time... lots of friends & family were there to see the special event. I wore the gown that mommy wore when she was baptised... made by my great-great-grandmother! And Grammy got some water from the River of Jordan (the same river used to baptise Jesus!) during her Holy Land trip this year which was put in the water used to baptise me. Wow! Some bald guy in a robe held me and said a lot that I'll understand the meaning of when I'm older. One thing I did know was that there was a lot of love surrounding me... and mommy and daddy were beaming with joy. Uncle Bob took some video of the occasion... which is a little bit "Blair Ellory Project". :) But that's OK. At least we got some footage for memory's sake!

Daddy's Executive Assistant

It's fun watching Daddy work... although I can be a bit of a distraction. :)

Potential Overstimulation?

My dear friend, Ryan Fogel, lent me her exersaucer! Isn't it cool? Now that I can sit up on my own (sorta), it's the perfect entertainer... with LOADS of stimulation. You can tell by my face that I'm not quite sure where to start...

Flower Girl

daddy gave me a tour of the front yard... and then stuck a flower in my 'hair'.

Which one is a morning creature???

I am, obviously... just like my Daddy! Big bro Hank looks like he could use some more Z's. Mommy prefers to sleep in and have a slow start to her mornings --- without too much human interaction before caffeine consumption.

bathing beauty

I LOVE the water... what can I say? I'm a Pisces! The sunglasses, however, I could do without.

this is bigger than my bathtub...

Mom & Dad took me to the country club today so I could have my first official swimming pool experience! This wasn't anything like the inflatable jobbies I've been in! I was skeptical at first... but I think I liked it.

Fun-bo in the Bumbo

Mom just got me a Bumbo... my first big girl chair! My face in this picture doesn't accurately illustrate how much I really do enjoy it; but I DO!

My first vacay!

The Mycoskie fam went to the lake house up at Lake Texoma in July. Mom kept me out of the sun and I didn't get one mosquito bite! I finally got to meet my Uncle Kevin & Uncle Craig and soon-to-be Aunt Amy. They were awesome!

The best part of the trip was getting to wear my new mermaid swimsuit. :)
