VEGAS!!


Striking a pose with the 'water ball' in the pool...

NOT what the water ball was intended for.... but it was fun!

LOVED the fountains...

Daddy let me get 'monies' out of the fountain....

LOVED the gelato at the Rio buffet!

Holding Danni's hand as we cruised through the hotel!


Bathtime in the giant jacuzzi tub. There was room for lots more friends!

Danni and Daddy enjoying some quiet time.

Danni's digs.


Sweet swaddled baby...

Being silly with Danni before bedtime...

I can make her laugh like no one else!


Mommy got to go on a girls' weekend trip to Vegas a few weeks ago... Daddy, Danni, and I heard about how much fun it was, so we decided that we ALL should go! So we hit the road for a 4-day Vegas adventure!! Everyone had a great time! I especially liked splashing in the pool and stuffing my face at all of the buffets! Even though I'm not old enough to gamble, I still had a fantastic time!!!

November!!



I LOVE the park!


STILL love the water fountain!


Taking a rest....


Climbing down!

Danni loves the blue sky!


I can't believe that it's November and it is still warm enough to play in the park... in shorts!!! Of course, I am enjoying every second of outdoor playtime I can get, because I know that pretty soon, the cold weather is going to keep me indoors.... I love the gorgeous weather!!!

Halloween with Papa


Paul, Kelly, and baby bunny Danni!


The cutest and drooliest bunny you'll ever meet!

Lions say RAWR!!!


Can you tell that I was ready to PARADE?!

Mommy and Danni!

Danni's bunny shoes wouldn't stay on....

Chilling with Papa...

Helping Papa with the dishes....

Playing with Danni's costume on the way home...

I had SO much fun at last year's Halloween Parade in Ventura that I decided to do it AGAIN this year!! Danni and I donned our costumes and marched down the streets of Ventura with Auntie Lynne's neighbors. I met a lot of pretty girls!!! After the parade, I enjoyed my first corn dog, then headed back to Auntie Lynne's for dinner. I didn't want to go trick-or-treating ... instead, I had a blast answering the doorbell and handing out candy to all of the kids who visited. I had a special stash of candy that I would raid whenever a pretty girl came to the door!!! At the end of the night, we had (another!) birthday cake for Mommy. I helped her blow out the candles! Whew! I slept until 9:30 the next morning!! It was a tiring Halloween! :)

Happy Birthday, Mommy!


I took this shot of Mommy and me....

Excited to celebrate at Disneyland!!

Flying high with the birthday Mommy!


Tristan and I BOTH wanted to hold Gracie's hand!

...but I got her all to myself later!

Danni took a break....


Trying Cotton Candy for the the first time!


Tristan and I aren't tooooo sure about this stuff...


YUM!


I wanted a "BIG piece of Happy Birthday Mommy Cake!"


Our group at lunchtime...

In line with Gracie....


Photo op with the parentals....

.... because without them, it doesn't turn out so well....

Waiting for the shuttle at the end of a great day!

Mommy celebrated her 35th birthday last week! Daddy, Danni, and I took her to Disneyland to celebrate! We invited Mommy's friends to meet us there as a surprise. We had cake and spent the day enjoying the rides together!! Mommy loved it!!! My favorite part of the day was the "Happy Birthday Mommy Cake." I have inherited my Mommy's love of buttercream frosting. There was plenty of it on hand! :)
