Various Pictures from the summer!

Well...Alyssa is officially 18 months old now. Where has the time gone?? She is growing up so much, she's definitely a toddler! Let's see, she's hanging steady at 25 lbs and is getting taller every day. She is now talking all the time. She can say snack (her favorite by the way), Nana, nanny, juice, shoes (although this sounds kinda like juice), 'side (outside), and her new favorite word is down. Everything is down, she'll pull you to the floor and say "down!". She also likes to grab Daddy's shirt and pull him throughout the house. She loves dancing to everything, and is getting to be a sneaky little girl. She's also very stubborn!!!

A few funny things...Daddy has taught her to say "Aghhh!!" when she finishes a drink. It is too cute to see her. She is also helping us do lots of stuff. She helps put the laundry up, even if it is in the drawer of the end table in the living room. It surprises me how much she is learning just by watching us do things.

The other night we were getting ready for bath time. I usually take her to her room first to get ready. Well, that night when I put her down after undressing her, instead of running to the bathroom, she crawled up into the rocking chair. She turned around, sat up, and started to pee-pee in the chair. Then she started laughing when I realized what she was doing...it was shocking at the time, but I find it pretty funny now. Needless to say, she doesn't get to get in the chair anymore unless she has a diaper on... ha ha!

She is constantly chasing Colby around the house. She'll grab his toy and squeak it to get his attention, but when he runs toward her, she drops it and runs the other way. I think she wants him to chase her, but hasn't got it down yet.

I just love this silly picture of her...she was dancing to the music on tv.

Like I said..she's into everything!



Yummy oatmeal...


Can I have some more??

What a precious little face!!


Chillin' with Daddy! (Mommy is always behind the camera it seems)

Peek a boo...where's Alyssa??


Where's she hiding??
Here I am!!!


Mommy..it's hard to walk in your shoes!!

She is learning to use a spoon and fork, not always so good with it, but keeps trying.


Digging into the yogurt!!
This girl can eat when she wants too!

We got her this 4wheeler a while back..she is now getting the hang of it and has to ride it whenever we go outside!
