I love my jumparoo




A few pictures from Alyssa in the jumparoo having a ball. She loves to bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce....

As a matter of fact...


Alyssa proudly wearing one of the t-shirts Lynn gave her on our trip to LA. It reads, "As a matter of fact the world does revolve around me" I think Mike and I would probably agree...

Where does the time go?

where does the time go? We've been busy again and I haven't posted lately. I'll get some up over the next few days, so check back! Hard to believe that Alyssa is 10 1/2 months old...where does the time go?

playtime with Tigger





While visiting Lynn, she treated us to a trip to the Mattel toy store where Nick and Alyssa both got a bouncing Tigger and had a ball bouncing with them for the afternoon.

my new friend




Alyssa and Nick were buddies while we were visiting. They were always really interested in what the other one was doing.

playing with the whale pool

We spent part of our LA trip visiting with friends - Em's old roommate Lynn, her hubby Bill and their son Nick. We just happened to be there for Nick's 1st birthday party, so we got to join in on the celebration which included playing in the water in their backyard...

mini maestro in the making




Alyssa had a ball banging away at a baby piano at Gram's house...


A couple of cute pictures from before we left for the trip....

post to come

sorry - its been awhile since I posted pictures again. We were on vacation (to the LA area) and then have been busy trying to get caught up since then. We had a great time out there and the trip went really well with Alyssa..she travels well!
