The Latest

Update anyone?

I am feeling as though I have not done a great job of updating you on what is happening with us.

So here's the latest.

With Alayna's birthday, came a special present from Mommy and Daddy.

Here she is trying it out.

After her birthday, the presents just seemed to keep coming.

Getting the mail was quite a treat.

This present she got in the mail is one of her favorites. The picture is kind of dark and fuzzy, but can you see that darling purse that is just her size? She LOVES it!

I can officially say Alayna has pretty much mastered the walking. Yes, she still loses her balance and has moments where she looks a little tipsy, but judging by how many times she was able to walk up and down the aisle in Relief Society on Sunday, she basically has it down.

You would be amazed at how well she is able to walk in these stylin' pink boots.


There really is no reason for this picture, except to get a look at that cute little face.


When she is not walking all over the house, she is chillin' with Daddy.

Yes, my child is amazing. She already knows how to read. At least she knows how to read cards that say Happy Halloween from Grandma and Grandpa S.
And Finally, here is the latest in the crafting area. Mod Podge has become my best friend. I decided the scuffed, white top of Alayna's bookshelf was too boring. Plus you could see the screws holding it together.
So with scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, and a little time, I created a more colorful top to her bookshelf.

One craft project down. Only 137 more to go. Just kidding. But I really do have a list of projects I want to complete, so I don't forget any.
