Elle - 14 months


We are used to the happy, cheeeeeese face when she sees the camera Elle.  But at 14 months I think she is on the brink of Stranger Anxiety.  She's had a lot of changes  and is living in a new house, has a new room and a change in her routine.  So, when she sees LaLa, with a big black camera pointed at her, she doesn't break into her normal smiles, she' s a bit more reserved.  Still a cutie though, huh?


She has a new water and sand table and will spend forever out there dumping out the water and playing in the sand.  (Or pouring the water into the sand :) )



She's walking everywhere now.  She walked right over to Papa Oregon to check out his handyman work.  He's fixing the sprinklers.


Nana Oregon loves this photo.  I love that she has a content face, with dirt on her hands and dressed in a girly girl dress.


She's ready to join in on the getting ready for my Bridal Shower Fun...


...but first it's time for oranges, turkey sandwich and yogurt.  I missed her "yum yum" face and noises... but you can see how excited she is to have lunch!

Round Two of Nicolas


I got my Nicolas fix this trip.  He is almost 10 months old, about to crawl, "talking" up a storm and continues to be laid back yet spirited and such a cutie patootie!!


His clapping and the way he curls his little toes is precious...


...and his hands are in constant motion!!


He LOVES his walker and will cruise all over the place.  (Who needs to learn to walk when you can cruise in style!)


His jumpy toy is a close second to the walker.  He's a mover and a shaker!!  And when there is any music on (especially Arabic music) he does the cutest little dances!!!


Nana and Papa Oregon bought Nicolas this cute little outfit from Gymboree.  Doesn't he look so cute in the hat?  (He wouldn't keep it on long!)


My sister-in-law Sonia plays with nonstop with Nicolas.  What a lucky little boy!!



Nicolas cut his very first tooth tonight.  Apparently fingers are very good for sucking on while you're cutting teeth.


Love.

Nicolas and a Bubble Bath

                         

Someday (soon) our nephew Nicolas will be too big for his kitchen sink bath.  But, for now, at almost 10 months he still loves his water time in the baby bath.  And the bubbles too!


He gave LaLa plenty of opportunities to catch some great shots.  The one above is one of my all time favorite shots of Mr. Nicolas.  Look at those beautiful brown eyes and long lashes!


It doesn't take much to get this little guy to smile...


...or to stick out his tongue.



LaLa and Uncle Bo love you, Nicolas Kenneth!!!
