Vivi Sings!

Tons of pics, Nov-Jan

A lovely November day at the beach

My favorite snuggle rug at Grandma's. I love snuggling it so much Grandma bought me one for my own house!

Daddy would agree that tofu is better suited for stacking than eating

Check out the new wetsuit Daddy got me so I don't get cold in my swimming classes!


A trip to Arbor Park to see the big planes at the Base!

Look at my cool house I got from Jeff & Linda! But no way you're getting in!

Mommy and Daddy won't mind if I just borrow a few presents for a minute...

I love penguins, especially cuddly snow penguins!

I'm gonna get you! I love tunnels!

My 2nd Halloween!

It's my 2nd Halloween - we went to Grandma & Grandpa's house to trick or treat with Max and Maddy!

Look at the scary Frankenstein monster cake Mama made!  I'm getting pretty good at saying "cake" (and "yum").

Check out Max and Maddy's fun costumes!

And here I am!  I'm a snowy owl (although a lot of people thought I was a chicken or an angel)!  Mama made my costume for me; isn't it cute?

Time to go trick-or-treating!  Look at all that candy!

I'm gonna get me some

I saw so much "kewel" stuff around the neighborhood!

Max was Dracula - but he didn't scare me!

Daddy got a good workout carrying me around all night

Hey!  What's he doing with my candy?!

Taking a break with Mama and sampling my plunder.

We stopped by the Williams' house and posed with one of Pat's plush figures.  Maybe next year he can make me a costume!

Back to Grandpa's to eat lots of goodies and stay up late playing!

It's almost Halloween!

Fun at the Santa Ana Zoo!

At home with my favorite flower bucket!

That's my buddy Jason from next door

Climbin a tree in downtown S.B.

Check out my cool new ice cream truck!  Thanks Grandpa!

It's fun to sleep on Dada

Havin a snack at Aunt Jenn's new house!

Somehow all my toys got out of the box and I got in...

I love my swimming classes with Mama!

I had some serious bedhead going on that day...

Check out my cute shirt.  It says "Princess" on it!

Don't I look smart in Mama's glasses?

 

I'm so cool with my doctor bag.

Taking a snuggle break with Mama at Aunt Jenn's

I'm getting pro-style feeding myself applesauce with my spoon!

How cute are my new owl pajamas?!

Ask me to do my squishy face sometime...

I love coloring! (on everything but the paper)

I'm so cool I got my pic with Grandma in the LA Times (10/21)

Pumpkin Patch!

I'm 2' 6" actually, but I wouldn't get close to that thing to find out!

I love making music!

I got my very own pumpkin to take home!

And a lollipop!  Thanks to the folks at the Johnson Bros. pumpkin patch!

Happy Halloween!!  Look for my halloween fun pics next time!

Happy Birthday to me!

Jen Hrycyk took some great birthday pics of me and posted them here (party) and here (real bday photoshoot).

and here's some from daddy's and grandma's cheapy cameras:

awwww... the outdoors- fresh air and LEAVES- yay!

and I love spashing around in the water!

Here's me posing in my birthday outfit- thanks Aunt Jenny!

I got birthday cake all over me so mama decided to give me a bath in the pool!

At least I had a chance to swim with my boyfriend Julien first! I'm trying to impress him with my straw biting skills! And no top- how scandalous! Hope these photos don't end up on the internet...

I loved all the leftover party decorations- balloons are my fave!

At my cousin Shannon's house for her birthday- her birthday is the day before mine! I didn't want to have to share my birthday with anyone :)

I stole her birthday tiara!

I had to give it back but at least I still have my straw!

Cake time!

Catching up
