Sylvie's first glimpse of Santa...

We took Sylvie to visit Santa at the mall today, hoping she wouldn't totally freak out... and were quite pleased with her reaction. She spent most of the time gazing at him with an amused smile on her face, clutching his furry collar. Of course, then she would look at the camera and lose most of her smile. Oh well, at least there weren't any tears.



This is another picture taken of her today by her adoring daddy... can't believe she's almost a year already. :(

Photos taken at Millennium Park

Here are some photos Matt took during our visit to Millennium Park a few weeks ago. Sylvia is becoming quite a little character!

Life in Alaska

My Aunt Carol forwarded this to me and I just had to post it...

A family that lives on the outskirts of Anchorage , Alaska decided to build a sturdy, colorful playground for their 3 and 4 year old sons.
They lined the bottom with smooth-stone gravel all around to avoid knee scrapes and other injuries. They finished building it one Friday evening and were very pleased with the end product.
The following morning, the mom was about to wake up the boys and have them go out to play in their new play center. This is what she saw from the upstairs window:






This gives a whole new meaning to "Build it and they will come!"

Let me tell you a story...

Spooky Kitty

Ok, so it's been over a month since I've posted anything on here. So sad... Anyway, I am in the process of uploading a gazillion pictures into Shutterfly and came across this one from a few weeks ago when my dad came to visit and brought my nieces Xavia and Lynell with him. The girls look really cute, but then if you look a little further, you'll see Tweeter looking quite scary!

Here are some more pictures from that weekend...
