New Skirt

I cannot believe how "old" Seema is looking lately.

Check out her curls

Don't be fooled like Mom, this is NOT my first sucker. I love these!

Playing outside. Wearing the new skirt Grandma made for me.

Yep, that's right, Seema has a brand new one-of-a-kind skirt. Made especially for her by Grandma. Now she's not one to be all girly and it makes me to happy to see her in a skirt.

Happy Diwali

from our family to yours!

New Words

Seema's saying a lot of new words lately. She's becoming quite the copy cat too.

Her newest is shh! with the finger up. It's the cutest thing.
We were watching Betsy's Kindergarten Adventures on PBS over the weekend and they were in the library and the librarian kept saying Shh! and now she does it.


She loves popcorn, dried cranberries/raisins/etc, plums, all kinds of soups.

We have been working on going to bed without a bottle. It's been going pretty well, some nights are harder than others though.

Next will be some potty training.

Pumpkin Farm

We went to the pumpkin patch and farm Friday mid-day.
Come to find out they weren't actually open to the public at that time, just for schools and groups that had reserved the stop. rofl! Oh well they let us tag along with one of the groups so it worked out. :)

Now that Seema can walk she loves exploring and I love it too.

She pet the goats, the calves, the cows... we saw the chickens.


We played on the playground (they had tire swings that were horses and other fun stuff!)
We went to the pumpkin patch.
We saw the pigs, and smelled them too! phew
Then we got to see how the cows got milked and got to feed one of the calves a bottle. Well we watched. I knew if Seema got to close to that milk bottle she might be the one being feed instead of the calf.

Still on vacation...

well sorta.

Had lunch with Mom, Dad, Lizz, and Matt today. Jason's deli.. yum!




Then, followed Lizz & Matt to Target and they started the baby registry there.
We had fun!

Enjoying the not-so-sunny-weather

I am on vacation from the "regular" job and instead I'm doing some much needed catching up on the photography job. :D And this is the week it decides to rain! It has been in the 80s and sunny until this week!

Oh well. Most of what I'm doing has to be done inside, but a little sun would be nice.

I enjoyed (a much needed) massage, facial, manicure, and pedicure this morning. It was just wonderful. ahhh...

She's WALKING!!!

At 16 months old she figured out how to walk without holding someone's hand or holding the furniture!! YAY We are so proud of you. :)
