A Girl's Best Friend...

... is her pit bulls!!! Faith loves her puppies, and they sure do love her.

Part of the gang...

Snuggle buddies....

Uh-ohhh.... a dangerous squeeker toy!!!

Don't worry Faithie, I will save you!

What???? Dogs love Boppy pillows too!

Last week, I sat Faith on the floor in her Bumbo chair. Ryan dragged his blanket over to be by Faith, and soon it was a party.

What??!!?? Doggy blankets are very yummy. (Yes, she was trying to put it in her mouth.)

So are baby ears....
... and fingers.

Come closer, Ryan... I promise I won't pull on your face.

We're all the best of buds.

She's On a Roll...

Two nights ago, Faith rolled over for the first time! She's been close for some time, but that one pesky arm just always seemed to be in the way. The other day I laid Faith down for a nap on her back. She usually rolls to her side, but when I went in to check on her, she was on her tummy...sound asleep. I called for Derek to show off her new skill. Then I called my mom. (First-time parent joy.)

Last night we were on the floor playing with her, and she is definately rolling over...it wasn't a fluke. This new skill of hers certainly makes changing her diaper challenging though!

"This Little Piggy"

By Faith

This little piggy went to market,

This little piggy stayed at home,

This little piggy had roast beef,

This little piggy had none.

And this little piggy went...

"Wee wee wee" all the way home...

THE END

Toys. Toys, Toys

Sleeping Beauty

A little girl is

Faith's First Halloween

Faith enjoyed her first Halloween almost as much as we did. She was so cute! She had two costumes, a sweet pea and a flower. Derek, Judy, Faith, and I enjoyed super warm weather on Halloween day, so we sat on the front steps and passed out candy to the neighborhood children. We can't wait for next year!
