Scarlett's birthday

Dear ol' blogger likes to do everything backward, so the pictures are in reverse order.
Scarlett's third birthday was at a local bouncy place. Yaaay for no parties at home!
The star of the show was the Minnie Mouse cake made by Auntie Shana. Everyone just oohed and aahed over it. Scarlett just wanted to eat it! (It was delicious, by the way!)


Savannah had too much fun, and fell asleep in Nana's arms


Presents!!! PRESENTS!!!

Ahhh... beautiful!














Uncle Jim, Aunt Alyssa and Lukie on the slide



Perfectly content with a small, half deflated basektbal. Ahh, if only it stayed this way forever!







Allll ready for the party!!!

New playhouse

Nana and Papa got Scarlett and Savannah a cool new playhouse for their birthdays! It's a good thing Daddy is great at putting these things together. Mommy would have let the box sit in the garage until the magic fairies came and put it together.








Pretty Girls

Trying to get two girls in their Sunday best to sit still for a picture is hard enough! Factor in smile and stay clean and you have yourself a Herculean task! So, this is what we have.












Ummm... Scarlett? What's so funny?









Savannah Violet

As my mom likes to say, Savannah is no milktoast! She's gone from the quietest baby you could ever imagine to an opinionated, feisty, near-toddler. She's a climber and she does not like ahving her stuff being taken away from big sister! Most of all, she's sweet, smiley and still has my heart in her tiny little fist.

At her 9 month apt, she was 19 lbs and I've forgotten her height. She was 40th percentile for weight and 70th for height. Tall and skinny. Haha. I wonder where she got that from, and that is certainly no sarcasm!



Climbing on the dinner table? The usual scene around here!

















She's even cute when she sneers!










Savannah waking up Scarlett







When Scarlett naps, Savannah gets very restless. So when its time to wake big sissy up, she's on the job!
Note: These are probably pictures of Scarlett's very last nap. She gave them up right before her 3rd bday. Fun times for Mom. But I'm enjoying the 7:30 bedtime!

Scarlett the ballerina











It's a little like a bull in a china shop... or at least a little girl who thinks a "chause" is run really really fast in a circle. Uh oh... Scarlett's in ballet!








Christmas


Santa passing out presents!

Chloe and Scarlett loved Santa! All the other kids, not so much
Santa came to visit! (out of order!)
Savannah's ready for Christmas!
Christmas morning-- Scarlett got her roller skates!!

D isneyland, December 2009

















Since I can't go back to September without drowning in the amount of pictures and stuff we have done, I'll go back to Decemeber.
Ah, December... Scarlett was well-versed on Santa Clause and Savannah just loved the wrapping paper.
After my semester wrapped up and Juan started Winter Break, we headed to Disneyland for three days. We all had a wonderful time, even Savannah. She didn't like Pirates of the Caribbean, but she was a trooper and hung in there.
