A Fun Filled February

AnnDee continues to grow faster that the eye can see :-) Lately her fondest moments are moving her "Gabba Gabba" tent around the house, licking her yogurt bowls clean, and "helping" mommy pick up the cat food-and of course there must be clapping after every piece;-)     

Since our weather has been very hit or miss,

we've all gone a little stir crazy. 

It's nice to get out of the house, so we've done some adventuring.

-Chuckie Cheese & The Mardi Gras Pet Parade! 

I think Emma had one too may of AnnDee's 

Horse-Collar Hugs : /

It really is great having friends the same age to play with!

January 2012

How time flies. It's been nearly a month since I last posted pictures.

(Sorry to all of you that check back frequently).

2012 has come around and life at The Mitchell's has been great.

AnnDee is more willing than ever to

 trade shoes, hold hands, blow kisses and give huge hugs!

Life doesn't get much better than that!

AnnDee and Mom got to travel back to Missouri for a week to spend some time

with family. Although the week was a little hectic, I know Grandma & Grandpa loved each minute they had with us. 

AnnDee got to experience many new things while we were there:

-morning coffee & paper, don't mind if I do.

-making all kitchen utensils & Tupperware into toys :)

-bossing around a little puppy..."No No" (finger pointed & all)

-hiking with Grandpa around the yard

- and making Grandma laugh.

Christmas Day 2011...fun with Editing :)

This year, our Christmas morning was much more exciting :)

AnnDee loved picking every last piece of paper off the gifts 

and fighting with the tape when it got stuck to her hands and fingers!

She was flooded with "Yo Gabba Gabba" gifts

and now anytime she sees a colorful box, she says "Gabla Gabla!!"

Pretty adorable.

We traveled down to Galveston to spend Christmas afternoon and evening 

with Emma & her parents, Tim and Jenn.

The girls had a ton of fun and the moms made sure to get pictures of the 

cuties in nearly matching PJs. 

Waiting for Santa......

Who can resist that face under the Mistletoe??

'Tis the Season

 Our December started off a little rough-

AnnDee got hold of a permanent marker and decided to show us her artistic abilities by "coloring" all over our couch and floor. 

Mom cried. Then Magic Eraser came to the rescue...at least for the floors :)

We are very lucky to have great friends here in Texas. 

Last weekend we were invited to a Christmas party 

where we got to listen to a book

and decorate our very own gingerbread houses. It was great!

We also celebrated Daddy's 28th Birthday, 

grew some hair,

and took some pretty adorable Holiday photos. 

Here's a little blast from the past for ya!

The next 2 pics are of AnnDee- One year ago!

Look at her now! Ha Ha Ha...

.......or should I say "Ho Ho Ho."
