I'm getting pretty good at driving this thing...I think I should be able to take my driver's test in a couple of months!

Emelia's ride before the tragic face smash

Christmas fun

 A present I picked out "for Emelia"

 Emelia really liked to open her own presents, when I let her

 we love our new bouncer and each other

 Mommy finally found some shoes that Emelia couldn't peel off her feet....yet

Merry Christmas!

this was a surprise even mommy didn't know about.  When I did take my little sister for a ride I gunned it, she smashed her face and busted her lip (again), then I slammed on the brakes and she smashed the back of her head.  Daddy decided I'm not ready for passengers :)

my mommy is torturing me

Mommy will let me have my bottle, but only with water in it.  I DO NOT LIKE THIS!

drums

mommy won't buy me a real drum kit, so I was left to my own creativity

baby's new shoes

I have crocs just like my big brother!!

dirt angel

one more video for today

we love "Dancing on the Stars"

sometimes Christmas comes early

Ethan has been home all day for three days because he was sick.  Today mommy let me have a new toy that was supposed to be for Christmas because she knew it would keep both of us busy.  I'm having a bit of a hard time letting Ethan play with it, but we both LOVE the dollhouse.

p.s. mommy found this used for a fraction of the cost, she's pretty proud of herself :)

visits with Santa

Burrito

Ball Pit

It's been cold and we've been inside more than we like to, so mommy pulled out a Christmas present early!

so much joy from the dancing snowman

this kid's out of here

the difference a day makes....

mommy left this cup full of water out for me all day today...I figure I'll humor her and drink out of it

sippy cup meltdown

Yesterday the doctor told mommy that she should start trying to get me to drink out of cups rather than the bottle.  Yesterday, I drank out of a sippy cup and everything was fine.  Today, I changed my mind and reminded mommy why she hasn't gotten me to stop drinking out of the bottle.  This video was taken after about 10 minutes of hysterical crying.

baby temper

I'm SOOOO mad that mommy would not come over and pick me up.  She expects me to crawl 10 feet to play with her?? 

breaking development

Emelia's birthday party

Pumpkin patch

 arrival...after both Em and I crying/whining when we got into the car.  Mommy thought it may not be a fun day at the farm, but after we arrived things got better!

 I want to get out of here

 after 2 years of trying, I finally rode the pony!  My pony's name was Candy

 I still kept my eye on this pony, I was a little nervous about the whole thing, but fun at the same time.

 I'll smile, but I'm keeping one eye on these ponies!

 Em wasn't a fan of the hay, mommy had to take A LOT of photos to even get both of us to look at her at the same time.

 unbelievable chance that "gram" and I got into a cow car named Susie Q!!!!  We didn't even realize it until we got home and we were looking at all the photos :)

 there was a really big, loud tractor rolling by and Em really wanted to check it out

 mommy was really proud of me doing such a great job waiting my turn, even though I REALLY wanted to get on this tractor

how does this thing work??
