HAPPY Halloween!!!

Isn't this devil hat the best?!? She's such a little angel with that smile it makes it all the more cute! Jeannette had some big adventures this past month. Last weekend, we took her to a pumpkin patch and she had a blast.

She really loved the hay ride. Every time the cart bounced around she just laughed and giggled. She was smiling and laughing at everyone else on the cart and they all remarked how cute she was. All I heard all day was "what a cute baby!" from everyone who passed.

Here she is, the cutest little pumpkin in the patch! It was very sunny so getting her to smile took a little doing. A couple nearby even got into the act and were trying to get her to laugh.

Her she is checking out the scarecrow. I'm not too sure she knew what to make of him. After all, he didn't look like her Daddy. :)

And, of course, after such big adventures, she needed a little break. Mommy had a nice delicious bottle all ready for her. Even though it was rather cool out, the shade was welcome.

And, of course you need a close-up of her pumpkin hat! Everyone loved it and asked Mommy where she'd got it. Of course, we gave credit to Grandma for knitting it. The cutest thing about it is that it falls down over Jeannette's eyes so it looks like she has a whole pumpkin on her head.

I think the biggest decision facing us in the next week is what to dress her up as for Halloween. Here she is in a little ballerina costume, all the cutest part is how much she likes her little Pooh bear.

And of course we had to get her a kitty cat outfit! It's so cute, it even has a tail! Speaking of kitty cats, she has finally discovered that she owns kitties and she really likes them. They let her pet them and she just grins and laughs whenever she gets to stroke them. They are still getting used to her little squeels of delight though.

And here's my little fairy princess. Isnt' she precious? She especially likes to chew on this little dress. I guess it tastes delicious.

And here're just some random shots from the past month. Here she is in her little chair watching mommy on the computer. She really likes to sit like a big people, although she still has some balance issues when she tries it on her own, but, she's getting better.

She still really likes her little workstation. She happily stays busy in there for quite some time. Surprisingly her favorite toy on here is the blocks (the little blue clover thing in front there). She really loves those things.

And here's Daddy lookign all grungy feeding his little girl on the weekend. She's eating all kinds of solid food now nad hasn't found any that she doesn't like. She's gotten the hang of opening her mouth and is getting much better at the whole swallowing thing. Now most of the food actually makes it down to her tummy, rather than down the front of her bib.

Wow! It's been a busy month. Not just for Jeannette. who's been working hard at growing, but for Daddy and Mommy too! But, since I've been getting a lot of "post more pictures!" demands I figured I'd better stop and post some of the latest pics. That's me holding Bumbly after a bath. She looks so cute in her little bear snuggly.

This one here was taken around my birthday. Jeannette is showing off how she can sit like a "big people."

Early last month, she started really working on the whole rolling over thing. She also really loves her activity mat.

And here she is grinning at Daddy while he works. She's so proud of herself since she mastered rolling over. It's been just a week or so since she figured out the trick and she now rolls from back to front and front to back. She's still working on crawling, but, my guess she'll get the hang of that in a month or two.

The 23rd was her 4 month birthday so Mommy decided it's time to start eating "real" food. Here she is having her very first meal of baby rice. She actually does eat it, although she gives Dad the "what the heck are you putting in my mouth" look when I feed her.

Here she is, just yesterday, dressed up in a cute little party dress and sitting with Mom. I think the blanket was made by my Mom.

Ok. Just a random Daddy and Bumbly shot. She sure is cute, huh?
