Violet's Lost Video

So, Mimi made this video on Violet's very first day of life....and forgot to post it! Better late than never...here it is!



Aren't we the cutest?

Uncle Wade

Uncle Wade came to our house just before Thanksgiving for a visit and to meet baby Violet. (Okay, so he's not really my uncle... and his name isn't even really Wade... I mean, it is his name, but not his first name... it's all very complicated to me.)

As soon as he walked through the door I insisted on taking everyone's picture with him. He's like a celebrity in this house.

Here's him with Mumma...



... and one with Nana and Vi...



... don't we make a cute "family"?



And of course, one of the legend by himself. I angled the camera a little for dramatic effect.



For good measure, and so he wouldn't feel left out, I snapped one of Pup... and Mum.



I had a really hard time being still and good-mannered when Wade was here. I was just so excited to show off my little sister! (And to just show off in general.) I don't know why I do some of the mischievous things I do... I told Mumma that my brain just tells me to do it--and I can't help it.

She doesn't believe me.

Day of Thanks, 2011

Well, this year we did things a little differently. Since Violet is so little (and lemme tell ya, kinda fussy) Mumma and Daddy decided not to drive all the way to New York like usual. Instead, the four of us went over to Nana and Pup's with Aunt Sally and Grandma. It was a much smaller party than I'm used to for Thanksgiving... so I made sure to keep the noise level to a maximum--it only made sense.

Of course, we can't celebrate a holiday without the proper attire...



Even my little sister had something pretty to wear.



I think she's pretty 'thankful' for having me as a sister, don't you?



We had a most delicious meal and watched some of the parade and a silly dog show. After we filled our bellies, I noticed Daddy was missing. This is how I found him...



... so I joined him (for a second).



I also spent a fair amount of time trying to scare people by jumping out of the closet!



Aren't holidays the best?

Good

Not that it's any great surprise, but I'm still not old enough to do anything fun... just ask my big sister Ayda. For now, this is pretty much all I'm good at--




Mumma says I'll be fun soon enough. For now, I'll just relish in the fact that I get a "hall pass" to nap whenever I want.

More photos of Violet!

Hey guys, it's me, Violet! I wanted to share some more photos with you that my Aunt Mimi recently took of me. I have changed so much in the past three weeks it's amazing! I am just getting cuter and cuter everyday!
