The Coke truck

Its hard to tell in the picture but Elizabeth was amazed by the lights on the Coke truck.

Santa

"Who is this guy and why am I here?" - Little E is a little unsure about Santa
Heather and I took Elizabeth up to the local grocery store, LeBlancs, to get her picture taken with the Coke traveling Santa. Needless to say she was a little leary of Santa but loved the light cover coke truck on display. Beats fighting the crowds at the mall.

Tell me something....

"Here goes granpa telling me how great i am again, tell me something I dont know!" - Little E getting the big head

Riding Auntie Red

"HeeeeeYAW! hioooRED away! - The lone Little E riding "red"

Just like my daddy

"Just checking out what's in the fridge to eat" - Little E checking out the fridge

My First Christmas Tree!!!

"Mom says Christmas time is the best time of the year! Look at the tree behind me I am going to try and pull up on it this week once mom has it decorated!!! - Little E excited about the Christmas season

Oh Christmas Tree...

I'm confused...am I inside or outside?? Little E and her first Christmas tree

Too much Turkey!!!!

"A much needed nap was in order after Great Grandmas thanksgiving feast!" - Little E and her trusted pillow grandpa. (Notice a trend with the grandpas????)

My first Christmas gift!!

"Thanks Great-Aunt Kathy for the beautiful Christmas nightgown" - more pictures to come of this gift in action!

Mamma's Cooking

"Sometimes mamma's cooking is just too exciting to handle" - Little E resting after a big meal

What's in my closet??

Moms learning real quick not to turn her back on me!!!

Where's Grammy???

" where did grammy go?" - Little E on the hiking trail

Cock of the Walk

After a long day of babysitting the Little One we took Grammy out to Cock of the Walk for a nice down home catfish dinner.

Needless to say the Gifted One was amazed by the fine china they use.

Update

Sorry for the delay in posting but we spent the last week in AU finishing up our MBAs. We are finally done and vow to devote more time to posting more silly pictures of "The Gifted One"

22-15 Got five!

""Five in a row against uat, AU spanked uat yet again!" - Little E not afraid of the thumb

My first swing

"Look @ me I am swinging!" - Little E @ Chewackla State Park

Finally fall

We drove up "north" last week to Auburn and Elizabeth got to play in the leaves.

Comfy??

Since we aren't suppose to give Elizabeth a pillow, she has become resourceful...

Elizabeth's journal....

Thought I'd share a little background on the video below. As you can see Elizabeth has the worm moves down to a science - if she wants to get something she can. Funny thing is she never 'wants' a toy - it's either something mommy or daddy don't want her to play with (books, remote, cell phone, glasses, etc) or food. In the video is a package of Teddy Grahms our neighbor brought over for Elizabeth (along with dinner for mom and dad). Funny side note on the cell phone, Dad let her slober all over it yesterday before realizing just how much drool she had going on. After he took it away it started beeping for no apparent reason. Evidently it got a little too wet and had to dry out a few hours but now appears to be working again. Back to the crawling, over the past few days she has made a few short moves actually crawling, moving hands and keeping the belly up. It appears for now though, that is hard work and she finds the worm more appealing when she really wants to go fast.

Her other favorite move right now is walking around the coffee table and if we are sitting on the couch she'll bravely go back and forth between the two. The biggest draw back to this is she has taken some spills along the way but I guess that's part of the learning curve. I think they hurt mom worse than her. Luckily no battle scars yet!

The Worm

No not bambi !!!!

Papa explaining to Elizabeth his plans for the next week and offering to show her how to use a shotgun...maybe in a few years.

Macy and Elizabeth enjoyed each others company while trick or treating but Macy kept all the candy much to Elizabeth's dismay.

Happy Halloween !!

In the spirt of Halloween Elizabeth dined on pumpkin baby food last night that is why she is licking her lips. Elizabeth and Daddy scoped out the neightborhood last night in preperation for next year. Mom wouldn't let her collect treats this year.
