I hear Charley struggling with remembering the words to itsy bitsy spider.

Charley: what's that thing with the water in it?

Me: a spout

Charley: oh yeah! ::carries on with her song::

(Starting this back up as a place to record funny things my kid (and eventually kids) say. Totally stealing this idea from a friend.)


C: Guess what?! Ryan (preschool classmate) is on a family trip to DISNEY WORLD!
Me: Oh what a lucky duck he is!
C: Lucky duck...that's funny Mama. Is that what you say about me when I'm lucky too?
Me: Yep! You lucky duck!
C: How about 'lucky unicorn' for me instead?

I did it. Well, actually I completed the 365 day challenge yesterday since there is an extra day in 2012 due to a leap year but I just considered that a bonus day in case I happened to miss a day. I didn't though! Here's the last picture of the year:



Charley and her cousins all holding their Cabbage Patch Kids and watching Rockin' New Years Eve. It's crazy to see how big she is on the last day of the year compared to the wee little thing she was on the first day of the year.

I think I'll keep this going because I enjoyed it. I may not be as dilligent, but I really like forcing myself to have my camera out at all times because the babe grows and changes so much at this age.

On to the next year!

She doesn't get pizza very often at all, but she really likes it when she does!

Christmas morning was spent with my parents, husband, and Charley and cheesy, matching pajamas. John even sewed Charley a pair!

Santa stopped by tonight! Can't wait to see Charley's face in the morning!

We had a Christmas gathering with John's Dad and his family today where Charley was given a cute baby doll.

I checked out the progress on our house this evening and discovered our tubs and showers had been installed. I am so darn excited for this big jetted tub!

Nothing to see here! Just a silly, naked, screaming baby standing in a box.
