a few new ones of the little miss

{this photo was from her last

bout with the stomach bug...

even with her sickly belly and rosy cheeks

she was trying to be in a good mood and play...

we took out a pack of linky letters and played

a game that goes like this:

step 1: Makayla takes all the letters out

of the plasic bag

step 2: Makayla spreads all the letters over the sofa

and floor

step 3: Mommy picks all the letters up and puts them

back in the plastic bag

step 4: repeat steps 1 through 4}

our little bathing beauty

ready for a late afternoon at the pool

yes, this is the after shot

I'll set the scene...

Sunday afternoon, after church and lunch

at Bumbee and Granpa's house.

Everyone had gone home/work/errands,

except for us non-cable-ites who

stayed so Brandon could watch

the Atlanta Braves game.

Once Makayla woke from her

afternoon nap we spent some

time playing with toys from the cabinet,

watching baseball, working on walking,

discouraging stair climbing, etc...

Brandon and I each had some

ice cream pie that was leftover

from that day's lunch dessert.

Makayla was crawling around on the

floor, playing and having a great time.

All of a sudden it go very quiet and

we noticed it at the exact same time.

Makayla had crawled over beside the

recliner that Brandon had previously

been sitting in. We both lept up

and I said "Are there any light sockets

over there?"

Brandon grabbed her and this photo

was the findings...

she had found the leftovers from

his ice cream pie

and was quickly stuffing them

(mostly cookie crumble crust)

into her mouth, with both

hands at the same time.

Ha!

Caught in the act...
