Soo Cute

Well my little angel now has 4 teeth! Her top two have poked through at the same time this past week. She wants to stand all the time too, she gets up on all fours, her feet instead of her knees, trying to figure out what to do with her arms when she's in the middle of the floor, it's soo funny. If something is in reach, she's standing next to it, anything she can wrap her fingers around. I have the baby gate out and ready for Brandon to help me install it, she just wants to go everywhere, it's hard for me to get a bite to eat! Well I just wanted to share a couple of cute pics I got of her the last couple days ~ who could resist this little girl?? I know I can't :)
Playing in her tunnel, first time she actually crawled through it :)
Isn't she the cutest Minnie Mouse ever?!

Oh Boy

Alaina is into everything! She has mastered crawling and climbing up on things overnight, and I'm not exaggerating! One day she is crawling about 4 steps, the next day she is exploring the whole house! One day she pulled up on her toy box and two days later she is pulling up on everything into the standing position!! She's a little monkey :) We have started to babyproof a little now, she reaches for everything insight, she started showing interest in our electrical outlets! :( Now the bruises and scrapes begin, she got her first scrape on Sunday. She was climbing up on the basket, lost her grip and scraped the side of her head, she looked like she had stair steps cut into her hair lol. Of course I had to document her first mobile induced injury, good thing she's a toughy :) Here's a couple pics and a video to give you an idea!

Let It Snow!!

Well we took Alaina out in the snow for the first time yesterday. We were just getting the tube blown up when our neighbours came out with a wooden sled for us to use that they used when their kids were younger. Daddy pulled her around the yard and then I decided I wanted to take her to the hill around the corner that all the kids toboggan down. I even did when I was younger, doesn't seem as big now though! :) She seemed to like it, she has her first cold right now so I don't know how much she enjoyed being in the cold but I thought we could all use a bit of fresh air. So I took her down once on the magic carpet with me (the tube had a big rip) and then when I thought we were leaving, daddy decided to run down the hill pulling her in the sled!! I had a heart attack and yelled! We definitely went straight home after that.
Here's a couple pics from our first snow adventure :?P

Look Out Alaina....

Here comes Tiernan! lol We went to visit Chan and boys this past Thursday while they were visiting Chan's family. Tiernan seemed to really like Alaina, liked laying on top of her, giving her his cars and chips and whatever else he thought she needed. =) Alaina wasn't sure what to think, she looked up at me like; what is going on, who is this smooshing me?!! She isn't use to the pile ups and bigger kids. It was cute. It was soo nice seeing them. Can't wait for your next visit with BabyBoy#3, Alaina will be the one doing the pile ups then! :)

Tiernan said Cheese! everytime he seen the camera, Konrad on the other hand would move everytime I thought I had him in the picture, you can see his arm in the left one.

On The Move!!

Well Alaina just turned 7 months yesterday and has been up to ALOT the last month! She has been slowly starting to crawl for about three weeks now. She started by getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth. The last week or so she has been doing what we call the bunny hop mixed with the army crawl and scooting. The last couple days she's has been taking two small steps and then flops down on her belly. She tries to sit up from her belly too. She still rolls alot to help get where she wants to go. There's no leaving her in a room alone anymore! Yesterday she decided she is a big girl and pulled herself up on her knees to get a toy out of her toy bucket! I couldn't believe my eyes. She's going to be walking around furniture before I know it! Here's a couple short videos to show you.

Thank you everyone for everything we received this holiday and we hope to see you more in 2007!!!
