Last Weekend in Atlanta

I've finally gotten the chance to post some pictures from our trip to Atlanta. This was my first time traveling this far with Jenna, but without Randy. Jenna did great. She slept at least 2 hours both directions, and didn't seem bored while she was awake. Here's a picture taken towards the end of the trip, so she was ready to get out of the car by that point. I've also included some collages of pictures taken during the activities of the weekend (click on them to enlarge).

The Empty Highchair

Within the past couple of weeks, Jenna has decided she no longer wants to eat from her high chair. She'd rather eat at the table, even if she barely sits tall enough to see what's on her plate. She's such a big girl, and is becoming so independent!

Wordie

I found this website which creates collages based on the words on websites. I thought it was a cute idea and turned out really cool too! If you'd like to play around with it, the website is www.wordie.net. Very creative!

What a ham!

Jenna and I took a road trip to Atlanta this weekend (I'll post pictures later). She did great in the car, but by the end of it, she was ready to stretch out her legs. So we took a walk before meeting up with Daddy. I thought she did well posing for this picture. Doesn't she look so grown up?

September Sweetie

We went to a wedding this weekend and took some cute pictures of Jenna. She's growing up so fast! Enjoy!

Meet our new friend Fuzzy

This weekend, we took Jenna to Build-A-Bear for the first time. It was quite a cute experience. They start out by giving the child a heart which they tell them to kiss, hold to their forehead, and hold to their ear--so the bear will be full of love, a good thinker, and a good listener. Jenna did well obying all of these instructions immediately. Then they put the heart inside the unstuffed bear and start the stuffing machine. After the bear is sufficiently stuffed, a few quick stitches are made to sew it up, and a friend has been made! We couldn't decide whether it was a boy or a girl, but finally decided it just looked like a boy. His name is Fuzzy.

Jenna listened intently to the instructions.

The stuffing machine.

This is where animals are given their first bath (puffs of air).
Jenna didn't want to give the bear a bath; she kept saying, "no, no!"
and finally grabbed it out.

Jenna and Fuzzy are good buddies now.
Oh, yeah, she got a stroller too, which she loves pushing around!

Snoopy might be feeling a little jealous,
so we're trying to be extra sensitive to his feelings. : )
