Nineteen Months!

Hey there, just a few pics from the last few days.....
I still like to have fun. I don't sit still for Mom to do my hair, but I will let her get an occasional crazy head band in!
My close-up.
Reading my Thanksgiving book from the library.
Saturday I turned 19 months old! I had a good day with Mom, Dad was at the UM vs Wisconsin game that day. We got up and met Lindsey, Maryanne, Jenny and Ava for an impromptu morning playtime. All the girls had a great time!
I love my little snack cup.
Dad got home after the game in time for dinner and bathtime. It was a celebration and he gave me LOTS of bubbles!
My bubble hair!
Today was very warm and Mom and Dad took advantage of it during my afternoon nap. Now I have 1300 LED lights plus snowflakes in the tree outside my window to look at! We got to leave them on to enjoy tonight, but then I guess I have to wait until after Thanksgiving for nightly shows......

Library Morning

Well, it's been several days but the family is starting to feel better. Mom and I ventured out some yesterday and this morning. It was nice to get out of the house!
During my "lockdown" at home I had lots of reading time in my fuzzy Dora chair.
One night we had an emergency dinner run, nothing left to eat. So this was my fashionable ensemble that Mom pulled together for me! Mom hopes that I learn to love my apple hat.
More book time on the couch. It's hard to run around when you are coughing and wheezy!
See, I do clean up pretty good! Yesterday morning I went out with Mom to Hallmark and the pet store. I impressed the Hallmark lady with all of my "pleases." Mostly because I wanted to get out of my stroller and look at everything. Mom didn't give in :( I really enjoyed the fish at the pet store and had a good time looking at the birds too.
Me being goofy at home while Mom and Dad were making dinner.
So this morning Mom and I went to the library story time. There were probably 15-20 babies between the ages of newborn to two years. I liked the songs, learning about stars, and clapping my hands. There was a loud lady who read a book about why animals shouldn't wear clothes. I even met another Natalie who was almost two years old. I did NOT like learning about feet and trying to trace mine. Maybe I'm ticklish? The group takes a break for the holidays and I'm hoping to go back in January! When we got home from the library I got the mail and was excited to find Mom's new Parents magazine. Maybe I can pick up some new activities in there!

My New Chair

This past weekend Grandma and Grandpa Jackson came to help celebrate my Dad's birthday. I had a great time playing and entertaining them! They also spoiled me too. I got some new fuzzy monkey pjs, a festive t-shirt, and this great Dora chair (early Christmas!).
I really like the chair, it's soft and has Boots on it. I love monkeys and make an "ooh ooh" noise when I see one.
More monkeys, I'm sensing a theme! I think this is almost a tree pose from yoga :)
Attitude. I took Mom's hat when she got home from work on Monday.
Snacks, a chair, and my hat. What more can a girl want? I promise to get more pics from G & G Jackson's visit. I think they are on my other computer. What can I say, I'm a busy girl who loves her electronics!

Halloween!

I had a great time celebrating Halloween this year. I spent some time walking around the neighborhood and then hanging out at our place to see all of the other kids come by. Parker and her parents were in town for the weekend too, so we got to model our costumes for each other and run around the house some.
This past week I used my stool for a chair lots and did some reading
I also stole Mom's purse, but I held it very nicely.
I had a great Halloween shirt from Parker. I think that Mom washed it almost every day so I could wear it tons the week of Halloween!
Parker and her Dad, all dressed up!
Cute ducky...
We practiced our sorting techniques, no candy eaten!
I was kind of striking a pose for the camera.
Our favorite place to hide out, in the dog crate!
Little piglet bouncing on a ball.
Helping Mom with some lights.
Piglet on the loose!
Posing with my buddies the Filatoffs.
Piglet and spiderman!
Piglet on the move...
I stayed in my costume for almost the whole time! By the end of trick or treating I was tired and ready for bed...can't wait for next year!
Hope you all had a great Halloween!
