Another attempt.....

Well we went to Grammy's house and she did a little better!! However this is another example of Allie being much more interested in the grass than Mommy!! I guess I need to put her in the grass more often =)

Not so cooperative...

Well, I've been trying to take a picture of Allie for her 1st birthday invitations. She WILL NOT LOOK at me, or if she does, it's because she wants me to pick her up. This was a typical Allie crawling away during the photo shoot. I'll keep you posted and let you know if she decides to stop ignoring me and take a good picture! Doesn't she look cute though?

Allie in her Aunt Paula's car

Paula came over for a visit the other day in her sporty new Boxter. These are some pictures my mom took & yes, there is a trunk in the front!! Allie's been giving kisses for the last few weeks, and Paula was lucky enough to get one!!

Mommy's Favorite Rice Krispy Treat!!

Well I turned my back on Allie for 2 minutes and she somehow managed to pull the cereal bag out of the box and dump cereal onto the floor. I was so shocked, she didn't even get in trouble!! Anyhow I think she thought it was time for a snack! Isn't she adorable?

We know where Allie's birthday party won't be!!

Well Hurricane Ike sent a tree through my poor mom's porch! The 2nd pic shows Allie's Pop (Adam's dad) cutting the tree off of the porch. We didn't have any trees left to fall in our yard!!

Adam, Allie and I evacuated with Paula (Adam's mom) to Glenmora. Allie had a great time visiting with her cousins Dylan and Jolie!!

Allie's got her blue jeans on!

Title stolen from my mom. I put Allie in jeans for the first time since winter on Sunday! She is wearing her giraffe shirt that her Daddy bought for her while he was in Singapore. She had a fun day with her MawMaw Karen. Here are some pics mom took of her playing on her back porch. My sweet little angel cannot be denied by her daddy (or Uncle James)!!

Allie stair stepping!

Here is video of Allie going up the stairs!! She is VERY fast! Auntie Em, notice what she is wearing =) Sorry it is turned around for part of the video!!

Allie Can Climb!!

Allie got to practice climbing the stairs at Melissa's house while we were evacuating from Hurricane Gustav!!
