The Dollhouse

This is my mommy's dollhouse.  Someday, if I'm a good girl, it will be mine.  Great Fa made it for my mommy when she was seven years old- it is so beautiful, I love to touch the shingles and the gingerbread!  The dollhouse lives in Virginia at Graddaddy and Grams' house.  It's such a special treat to see it when I visit!

Cold Ones

I had a fantastic first Memorial Day!  Here I am with dad, uncle Adam, and my cousin, just kickin' back, enjoying some cold ones Weiss family style.  As you may or may not know, we Weiss babes love to teeth on beer bottles.

Cowboy Take Me Away

Sigh. So as I said in my last post my parents dragged me along to another wedding this weekend. But at least at this one there were lots of cute boys. I even met a cowboy- and he let me wear his hat!

Congrats to Erin & Rick

My mommy's friend from waaaay back, (eighth grade, when they both had braces!) Erin, got married this weekend, to a handsome firefighter named Rick Here we are at the rehearsal dinner. Thanks for having me ya'll (I'm practicing my southern).

Dad's birthday

Happy Birthday to dad! I'm loving the birthday candles- they are mesmerising!!

Pomp and Circumstance

Guess what?! No, I did not graduate from college, not yet anyway, but my uncle Benjamin did (and he let me borrow his nifty hat)! He receieved his Bachelor's degree from Virginia Commonwealth University. We are all so proud of him. Here is some video footage from the ceremony!

Going Bananas

I am now eating both rice cereal and bananas. I cannot get enough of them. I cry when mommy or gram take the spoon away. I eat them until I am super duper stuffed. I love eating like a big girl!

Happy Mother's Day!!

In honor of all you moms out there, here is a picture of my mommy and me on Mother's Day. She's pretty awesome, you know, giving me life and all. Hope all of you out there have a wonderful day!

My Southern Roots

This week I have really been getting in touch with my maternal roots here in Virginia- in addition to Granddaddy and Camille, I also have my Grams and my uncle Benjamin to hang out with- they are both super cool for different reasons.
Grams has been teaching me about shopping, emailing, and cooking (she's really good at all three). She has been giving me lots of baths and diaper changes. And oh yeah, Grams is awesome at getting me down for my naps.
Uncle Benjamin is a college student (at least for another week) so he has lots of really interesting ideas fresh in his mind. He makes funny faces and lets me pull his hair. He is also a boy (I'm really interested in boys- they fascinate me).

Granddaddy and Camille

Greetings from Richmond, VA!! My mommy and I flew down yesterday- boy, I sure have been on alot of planes in a short amount of time! This time, much to mom's dismay, I was not happy about it. But, I am happy to be in Virginia with my mom and my grandparents (they spoil me so!). I also got to meet Camille, my grandparent's new Great Pyrenees. She is a baby too, although she is so big you'd never know it! I think she is really funny, especially when she sniffs me (it tickles).

Orange Juice

I found this orange the other day, so I grabbed it and squeezed as hard as I could- I wanted to see some orange juice!  It didn't quite work out for me... and mom and dad ate the orange, and I was left with nothing!  Such a bummer- I really need to try and get this solid food thing down ASAP!

Happy Cinco de Mayo

This is my fairy princess cousin.  She loves me so much and gives me lots of hugs and kisses.  She is three years old today.  Our family celebrated Cinco de Mayo/her birthday with mexican food and margaritas.  Then everyone had cake, except for us babies (we had milk).

Down in Dixie

This weekend I hopped on a plane down to Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina for Jeb & Anna's wedding with my parents.  As you can tell, I really took advantage of the on flight entertainment (gotta love JetBlue).  I borrowed Dad's Bose headphones, which are almost bigger than my head.  Here are some other highlights from my first trip below the Mason-Dixon.

Here I am with the man of the hour, Jeb, enjoying some karaoke, pizza, and beer.

This is me at the rehearsal dinner with Lt. Hall, Anna's brother.  I just love a man in uniform; so many shiny things to look at!

I attempted to imbibe a bit at the rehearsal dinner.  The Delta brothers were very proud of me, and mom was very horrified.  She told me not until I'm 21, which is so unfair!

 

Me and Mom in our party dresses outside the church.

I was totally exhausted from the wedding weekend, so I passed out in dad's arms at the Sunday brunch.

Rice rice baby

I have started eating rice cereal.  As you can probably tell by the picture, I'm not convinced that it is yummy.  I much prefer milk from my mom's boob.  Eating from a spoon is hard work.
