Me and My Milk
"Now that I'm a 'big girl' I like to lay on my pillow and drink whole milk out of my sippy cup!"
Pretty in Pearls
Sierra loves playing dress-up with her pink pearls. She can put them on and take them off all by herself and she will do just that about 50 times in a row if you let her. The other night she was walking around with no clothes and just the pearls on and I thought it was to precious to pass up, so I took a few photos. Enjoy!
12 month check-up
Here are the stats:
29" long
21.8 lbs.
18" head circ.
The doctor commented on her balance and how well she was walking. He also said she pronounces words very well and that her walking was advanced for her age. I'm very proud, but a little sad that my girl is growing so quickly.
Halloween 2006
"LOOK! IT'S SPIDER WOMAN!"
These are my friends, Will the cowboy, Haley the ladybug, and Gracie the bab
y lady bug. We went to our church and "Trunk or Treated." I got a ton of candy that my mom will probably eat for me, but that's okay because I love her. TRICK OR TREAT! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Training for Mt. Everest
Well, my silly little girgle is learning how to climb now. I guess you could call climbing her newest adventure. Let's see . . . she climbs on stairs, toys, into cubbards, into drawers, in boxes, and on me. I'm, of course, her favorite jungle gym to climb on!
College Graduation
It's been quite a long journey but here I am at the end of the road. I started my Dental Assisting course at Apollo College June 13, 2005. That 9 month course has taken me 17 months to complete, but I did it! I perservered, gritted my teeth, and made it to my graduation ceremony on October 20, 2006. The only family I had there to see me walk on stage and grab my certificate was my daughter Sierra, but I couldn't have asked for a better audience. To tell you the truth I'm glad she was the only one, because she has an unconditional love for me that cannot be matched by anyone else. I'm not done with my schooling yet (I'm going on to become a Dental Hygienist), but I am very proud that I can say I'm a Dental Assistant!

Daycare friends
As you know, Sierra is in daycare now. When I first started taking her there she would wimper a bit and not want me to let go of her when I dropped her off. Now, she pushes away from me and waddles off to the playroom as soon as we walk in the door. Usually her little friend Alexa is there to greet us with a shrill "hi!" Sierra instantly smiles when she spots Alexa. As Sierra is walking off I usually shout out, "Bye bye!" and she turns around momentarily to wave. Every once in a while I'll bend down, put out my arms, and say "Come give me some love Sierra." Then she'll waddle over to me, throw her arms around my neck, and pop one leg in the air, then she lets go and waves goodbye as she walks off (usually with Alexa right behind her).
This is a picture of a few pictures . . . that's why it's not so good. But, a few days after Sierra's birthday I took her to Sears for a photo shoot. She totally hammed-it-up for the camera! There were so many good photos it was hard to only pick a few. I bought the above and an 8x10 for myself and few 8x10's for family.
The BIG 1!
Hooray folks! My blogger is working! I can once again post pictures and comments for your enjoyment.
Lets see . . . I believe I left off right before Sierra's birthday party. So for my first return blog I give you a birthday party montage. . .enjoy.
