Practice makes perfect

We have begun to transition Vienne into the world of solids!



MUSIC: Feels So Good by Van Halen

Finally....

The other day, Vienne, Danielle and myself traveled back to Andaluz Waterbirth Center so Danielle could pick up her placenta tincture. But an added bonus was finally filming Vienne's leaf on their tree of birth. In my opinion, she's the best leaf on that tree.

BUMBO!!!!!

Vienne likes her new Bumbo. Danielle and Jeremy like Craigslist. Vienne likes her bottle while sitting in her Bumbo. Vienne dislikes being teased with her bottle while sitting in her Bumbo.



Dancin' with Momma & Dozin' with Grammy

Vienne loves The Go-Go's. Click HERE to see what band I'm talking about.

Anyhow, one night last week, her and her Momma boogied down to 'Vacation', The Go-Go's big hit from 1982.

Afterwards, she fell asleep in her beloved Grammy's arms.

It was a good day.

Attack of the Tilly Monster!!

Tilly loves to eat slobber and spit up. Vienne is amused by this. Tilly is gross. But Tilly is a dog so can you blame her?

Christmas aftermath part 2

Wow! What a difference a week makes. Look at Vienne now, lovin' her "Jenny" jump up (sounds more appropriate than "Johnny")!!

Christmas aftermath

In the days following Christmas, Vienne wasn't yet used to her new toys. She was happy and smiling like she normally is, but she would just sit in her johnny jump up and her baby walker thingamabob, seemingly at a lost for what to do then.

It wasn't until a week later or so that V really warmed up to her awesome Christmas gifts. Huge thanks once again to Auntie Awa and Grammy Susan & Granddad Jim for their generosity.

BTW - as you can tell by the tail end of this video that Danielle was totally into our big kid gift: a Wii!!!

Computer smack talk

Unfortunately, our PC has a very specific opinion of Vienne:


Christmas 2010

Christmas Eve 2010 was spent over at Granddad Jim and Grammy Susan's house. Auntie Awa, Cousin Claire, Great Aunt Carol and Great Uncle Paul and Cousin Mike joined us. It was an amazing time and Vienne got some rad gifts including pink boots, Oregon Ducks attire ("Go Ducks!"), a johnny jump up contraption and a baby walker thingamabob.

Then on Christmas Day, we headed over to Grammy Chris and Cindy's home and we enjoyed a nice, relaxing day eating a delish brunch, opening gifts and playing Scrabble. Again, Auntie Awa and Cousin Claire joined in on the festivities. Vienne was the lucky recipient of some nice books and learning toys.

Too bad we have to wait another 365 days to do it all over again!!
