These are the lastest pictures that mommy has taken of me. She has been very bad at getting things done lately. She has been so busy with her job at the school and with school herself that she hasn't been the best at getting my beautiful face out here. We just wanted everyone to know that we are still around and checking our stuff- email and blog- sometimes.

we're back

It has been really busy around our house lately. Mommy and daddy have both went back to work and I am now staying with grandma and papa and the neighbor during the week. It has been pretty fun so far. Here are some pictures from our big family reunion that was held over the bevier homecoming weekend. It was lots of fun and my cousin ryan and i rode in the parade with the rest of the family. We were supposed to ride in the wagon and throw candy, but I ended up riding with grandma on the trailer.

Making cookies

Mommy and I made cookies. Daddy was really hungary for them, so mommy let me stir and dump in the stuff to make them. They turned out really good. P.S. this is the way that I smile now when asked to smile for the camera.

Fireworks

On the 4th we didn't do much but go to grandma and grandpas for dinner. Then mommy, daddy, me, grandma and aunt donz when to see the fireworks at the fairgrounds. They were really loud and I didn't like them at first, but then i got used to them and they were ok. I had more fun playing in the rocks in the parking lot. But a few days before my friend bethany shared her sparklers with me and I liked them a whole lot.

The Zoo

We went to the zoo!!! It was so cool. I got to see all kinds of animals, my favorite was the zebras. I also got to ride the train and the merry go round and the log simulation ride ( it was like a roller coaster!). They had this new thing there, mommy said it was dinosaures. They moved and roared and were really scary. Mommy said they were not real, but I don't know. There were lots of animal statues to take our pictures with, this is me on a blue frog. I got really sleepy when we stopped to see the sea lion show and fell asleep on grannys lap. They put me in the stroller and I slept through a rain storm and two animal houses that were really loud becasue everyone took shelter from the rain in them. It was a really good day... I hope to go back soon.

Magic...

while in St. Louis, mommy, ganny bert, bethy and I went to the Magic House. It was really fun. There were all kinds of kids running around everywhere and I wanted to run too, but mommy wouldn't let me. It was really fun to get to touch anything that I wanted though. These are some pictures of me going over the rope bridge and laying with the balls that hung in the air ( still can't figure out how they do that but it was my favorite!).

So Sorry

Mommy and I are terribly sorry for such the delay in postings. We have been horribly busy doing not alot of anything and have not taken any new pictures in a long time. We are planning a trip to St. Louis this week to visit the Zoo (my first time and i am sooooo excited to see all the animals) and also do lots of other cool stuff. We will have new pictures soon. On another note if you did not already know, my mommy has decided to go back to work... she got a job here at the middle school as the counselor. I am excited becuase now i get to go stay next door at the neighbors house as my babysitter and I love going there to play. Well, check in later this week for some new pictures and some exciting stories.

Swingset

This is my new swingset. I am so lucky that mommy got this for me. I love it and ask to play on in every morning when i wake up. One of the ladies that mommy works with sold her house and at her new house the yard is too small for this so mommy bought it for me. It took one afternoon, five people, and uncle garys truck and trailer to move it but it was worth it. It has three swings, a slide, a fort, rock stairs, bar/rings, and a climbing rope. It also has a telescope, steering wheel and water cannon that hooks into the hose in the fort. It is also supposed to have a sand box in the bottom of the fort, but mommy and daddy just moved my old sandbox behind it so we could still have the lid that covers it. Just wanted to share my new toy....

Cheerleader

This is my new cheerleader outfit that mommy got for me. I have a shirt, skirt and even pom poms. I like to wear it alot and say "rah rah". Mommy has gotten me lots of play dressup clothes at garage sales. Now i think that everything that she brings me comes from them, when anyone asks where i got something, i usually say at a garage sale, even if it wasn't.

pictures

These are pictures that mommy thought were really good. The first

one is me riding my trike with my preincess helmet on. Next is when mommy put my pretty pink cherry dress on when we went to see daddy give a speach at graduation. He was really good and i kept telling everyone setting around us that that was my daddy up on the stage.

I am a Rock Star!!

This is me being a rock star with my guitar while watching Alvin and the Chipmunks. I love that movie and especially when they sing. we have only rented it so i made mommy watch it like 20 times in the five days that we had it. hope you like my video....you might see more of Rock Star Mya in the future.

My New Scooter

This is my new scooter that mommy got for me. it has princesses and training wheels on it. i love to ride it. it is just like the one mommy got for bethy and i want to be just like her. I also have a priness helmet to go with it, but mommy doesn't make me wear it in the house. I am pretty lucky that mommy and daddy let me ride my toys in the house... so far i have learned to ride my trike, bike and scooter in the house before going outside with them. You should see how good I have gotten on it in just a couple of days.

Sunday afternoon at the farm

These are pictures from when we went to grandma and grandpas farm a couple of sundays ago. My cousins were there and uncle richard and aunt lacey. we had so much fun playing outside and i got to play baseball with everyone. the first picture is daddy and i playing outfield.. then i was alittle bored and decided to pick the flowers. aunt lacey made dandelion rings for me, thats what you see in/on my hands.

I like to help..

I like to help do lots of things around the house and yard with mommy and daddy now. this picture was taken about a month ago the first time daddy mowed the grass... i of course had to help him with my own mower. don't mind the line of hay in the yard, we had to repaire where the gas line went in the yard, but it looks bettter now with grass but the birdies and bunnies sure do like that hay.

my mommy is sorry

Mommy says that she is sorry for the delays in posting lately. I tried to get her to do it, i really did but she has been busy. Since the weather has been nice lately we have been going ouside alot to play with my outdoor kids next door. On other days I have been going to grandma and papas becuase they have been calling mommy to work alot here at the end of the school year. Mommy says that she will try to have some really cute pictures of me to post soon.

new things

today mommy and i tried something new. we went to the movie theater to watch horton hears a who. i was very well behaved and watched the movie for the most part, but it was such a long movie. i sat for about an hour and then really needed to move around, so i spent the last 30 minutes going back and forth into different seats and changing spots with bethy and what not. mommy didn't take pictures becuase she said they get mad if you take pictures in the theater.. just wanted to share my new experience with everyone..

Easter Time

This was my easter dress that mommy and granny bert picked out for me. too bad it was so cold and snowy here that i had to wear my turtleneck under it. mommy tried to get a really good picture, but this pose is all that i would do for her. sometimes i don't like to cooperate with the pictures that mommy wants to take of me....
here is all the loot that i took in at the family easter egg hunt out at uncle gary and aunt brendas house. like i said before, it was so cold that i had to wear my winter coat and hat and mommy wouldn't let me keep my dress on. i didn't keep all the candy, i shared it with michael when he came becuase he missed the hunt.. well, just wanted to share my easter pictures with everyone..

i was so sick

i have been really sick and in the hospital. mommy said it was an intestinal bug, and i don't like that bug at all....it made me pukie for a couple of days and feel really yucky. they put this thing in my hand to give me medicine to make me feel better but i cried and yelled alot when they put it in. mommy and daddy go to stay with me at night at the hosptial so i wasn't so scared. the nurses were so nice and kept giving me ice pops anytime i asked for them. below mommy has added some pictures of me with my iv and with my ice pop and reading with grandma norma. i was pretty bored, so everyone was really trying to keep me busy. i was in isolation in my room, so i didn't even get to go to the toyroom most of the time. now i am feeling much better and got to sleep in my bed with mommy and daddy....

i can dress myself

mommy had some new summer stuff out this morning to try on me to see if they fit. after she was done she left them in a pile and the next thing that she saw was me in this outfit. i decided that i liked my summer stuff more and so i put it on over my winter clothes. mommy is proud that i can put my clothes on now too, not just take them off. (daddy did help alittle when my shorts got stuck on my pants and i got alittle frustrated at them)

warm weather

the weather last weekend was so nice that mommy let me play outside for two days.... we did all kinds of stuff and i even got to fly my new kite that i have been asking to fly everyday since we bought it about a month ago. this is a picture of beth and i riding her 4-wheeler. she even let me drive it, that was so nice of her.
this is a picture that mommy took of me after i ran through and fell in grandmas garden. mommy says that she is sorry for it being sideways, but you know how that works sometimes.. you can't see it real well, but i had mud all over my shoes, it was so smooshy that it gushed over the tops and went down into them, so my socks were a mess. i was upset that my hands were covered in mud and wanted mommy to wash them right away. i can't wait for the nice warm weather to get here becuase mommy and i are tired of staying inside all the time.

having fun

so here I am sledding, well not really sledding but as close as I can come with out hills in our yard. mommy and daddy say that I am still too little to take somewhere where there are big hills to ride, so I am going to have to be happy just riding around the yard with daddy pulling me. the reason it is so loud is because it was actually ice and not snow, but it was really fun becuase daddy just swung me around. I am getting alot better about keeping my balance on the sled since it doesn't have handles. mommy thinks that I get that from her since daddy is not really great at balancing..

Party time

this was my first attempt at breaking a pinata at my cousin Ryans birthday party in January. It was lots of fun and when it finally broke, aunt jeanette and cousin bo helped me to fill my pockets with lots of candy. Mommy was still finding candy when she washed my clothes that I had on that day. birthday parties are so much!!!

shout out...

mommy says that I need to give a big shout out to her friends amy and austin, who I don't really remember, but they are going to have another baby. we are so happy for them becuase I love babies, especially real ones. did you know that I have play babies named after all the new babies that I know???? I also need to say congratulations to olivia, amy and austins little girl, who not only gave me the idea and inspriation to have this (oh what does mommy call it..oh yeah blog) thing but is going to be a great big sister.

Ok, Ok

So mommy and I are trying our hand at blogging. She says that this will hopefully push up to keep up to date with all our friends and family...I am leary thought because sometimes we have very good intentions, but they get side tracked, but we will try....
