SuperStar!!

YES - this is me & mommy with Matt Damon!!!! Mom had to go into town to pick something up and all the streets were blocked off. So we knew they were shooting "The Informant" somewhere today. Daddy got out of the truck to go stand with a group of other people. Mom & I stayed in the truck and waited for about 2 hours. Mom saw everybody leave where they were standing and rush over to the Hog Trough. So we got out and walked right up. We weren't out but about 5 minutes and Matt comes over to all of us! About 10-15 people got autographs and not very many people got pictures. So we felt pretty special! Daddy yelled "Matt, could we get a picture with our daughter". Mom & Dad tell me I'm a little magnet - whatever that means. He asked me what my name was, how old I was and said I was a cutie. I had to do a double take I had NO IDEA this was THE Matt Damon (I still don't). Oh yeah - he had his arm around mommy and daddy took the picture (mom told me to write that)!

My new Friend

This is my new friend, Mason Oliver. He was born only 3 days after me...in Korea! So we should get to be pretty good friends. He came to live here in the US on April 29th with his new mommy, daddy, and big sister - David, Stacy, & Marissa. You can read more about their journey if you click his link. Here we are at his baby shower the church threw for him. We are learning to share - neither one of us quite get it yet.

A Day at the Farm

Well, I got to ride the tractor with daddy for the first time. It was pretty cool outside and windy too! I was getting tired too, so I only rode 1 round, but it was fun. Pap was busy planting, but he stopped to take a couple pictures with us.

A Day at the Park

One day, while Daddy was at Menards getting some landscape stuff, Mommy took me over to play on the big swing set they have set up in their Garden Center. I loved the swings and slide. Soo, a couple days later, mommy & I visited Aunt Becky at school and we walked a few blocks to the park. We had lots of fun swinging and sliding. As you can see, I had a great time - plus, it was a beautiful day!

Comfortable?

This is how I fall asleep all the time. Mom has taken several pictures where my legs are sticking out the crib rails.

Treat Time

Every morning, the dogs (the black one is Rebekah & Jacob's dog, Casey) come over and stand at the window. Since I am taller now, I get to give them treats! Libby is a little picky - sometimes she is weird and won't eat while we're watching her. But Casey eats treats anytime - so that's why she's the only one getting fed! The bottom picture is me giving Libby a kiss.

Mess? What Mess?

I am feeding myself for the first time from these new spoons mom bought for me. I had to have some help getting the yogurt into the spoon, but I did pretty good getting it into my mouth!

Baby Day

Our church always has "baby day" where the babies born the last year or so go up front and get recognized. That morning, I got up at 6:00!, which mom & dad were mad at first until I was ready to take a nap at 8:00...it worked out great, because I got up at 10 and we had to be at church for our group picture at 10:10! I was in a great mood. I was the only baby that wouldn't sit on her mom's lap though - I only wanted dad to hold me.

Easter

This is our family Easter picture. We had to take lots of shots because mom was using the timer. I would either not be looking or mom & dad looked goofy. I was also very tired because Sunday's are bad days for me. I usually take a nap at 10:00 and that's right in the middle of Sunday School. There is way too much going on in the nursery for me to fall asleep. Besides, who DOESN'T like sleeping in their own bed?!

Little Things I Like to Do

I love to play with the remote - my mom & dad won't let me use this one anymore. I ruined a different one because of my spit, so they bought me my own for my birthday. Whether it's mom's pajamas, her Tupperware, lids, the coasters in the coffee table...I love to take (ok throw) stuff out of drawers. Then mom gets to pick everything up! Mom also gave me her old keyboard from when she was little. I love to play it - I even know how to turn it on!
