Christmas 2012

Alessandra's 1st Christmas was awesome!           

 My parents, my brother Robert, his wife Erin, their 2 kids and Jr's sister shared the holiday with us.
We started off Christmas Eve with our traditional Pinata. A huge donkey

 He was so full of candy that the rope broke before we even got started. But everyone got their wacka t him before he busted open spilling tons of candy.

 Christmas morning, a blur of opening presents.

8 months old

Alessandra is 8 months old. She is trying to crawl but her legs slip out from under her on our tile floors. She eats just about anything we put in her mouth. She now has 6 teeth. She loves to say DaDa and then she spits her tongue out. She is such a happy baby.

A day at the zoo

Instead of spending black Friday fighting the crowds we spent the day relaxing at the zoo. 

Notice Jonathan showing off his monkey skills

                            Jonathan loved the monkeys, when he touched the glass they would lick it

7 months

It's so crazy to think that it has been 7 months since this little miracle joined our family. She is growing up so fast, and getting more adorable everyday. She is now sitting up on her own, she isn't really interested in crawling, she would rather roll across the floor.                                

                                                                                                              

Spooktacular Halloween

Wahoo one of my most favorite holidays is here.

 I love carving pumpkins. I never do anything to fancy, I like your basic Jack o lantern

6 months

Alessandra is 6 months old. She weighs 17lbs. 13oz and is 27 1/2 in tall. She is our little copy cat, she waves her hand when you wave at her, she puckers her lips and gives kisses when we give her kisses. She likes to scoot around on the floor but has only figured out reverse. She is working on sitting up by herself but when she gets distracted she falls over.  

 We took a drive to Payson and watched a guy carve this cute bear with a chainsaw, then we won it in the raffle.

 Coolin off at the splash zone

 This cute yellow dress is a dress I wore when I was about a year old.

5 months old.

Alessandra is 5 months old. She is sleeping thru the night most nights, yay for mommy!! She scoots herself around on her back and tries to get her knees under her and scoot forward when she is on her tummy. She likes to eat rice cereal and sit at the table with us. She is still a happy, easy going baby.

4 months

Alessandra is 4 months old and it has been a busy month. She weighs 15 lbs. 12 oz. and is 26 in. long. Her 2 bottom teeth broke thru on August 15th. She found her feet and loves to pull off her socks.            

 She got to meet Great grandma Ross for the 1st time

 This is her favorite sleeping position

 She was a flower girl at cousin Anna's wedding.
