New Year's Eve Snow Day

On New Year's Eve day, we had an afternoon snow storm. Since Toby was sick with a cold for the first snow of the year, we thought we might take her out to play for a little while this time.

October's Cocktail Weenie Christmas

Ok, it's time now for the Christmas post! (I know you all love this one!!)...

Asleep with the new monkey from Uncle Ryan & Auntie Sam

What a long day!!

So there you have it. Toto's first "real" Christmas (technically her second, but how fun can Christmas be for a one-month old?). Just wait until next year when cousin Caiden is here!!

One Year Doctor's Visit

On 12/18 October went to visit Dr. Germain for her one year check up (hooray!)... Here are the stats:

Height: 31.5"
Weight: 23 lbs, 5 oz.

She is now 95% in height and 75% in weight. And we got a butt-load of shots as well...

Toby got her vaccinations for Hepatitis A, Chicken Pox, MMR, and she got her first H1N1 shot as well. She was NOT happy about being poked with so many needles!!

Also, just an aside: for those of you who were concerned about the fact that her right foot seems to turn in when she walks, the doctor says it's nothing to worry about. Because she started walking so early, he says she'll figure it out and it'll fix itself.

He also says that her belly button will go in eventually, so not to worry there, either!

Happy Turkey Day (sort of)

Ok, so we know it's already January first of 2010, and that this is coming horribly late, but Toby is hard to keep up with!!
Anyways, Thanksgiving Day started out normal... Went to Grandpa and Gramma El's house for the first dinner :) where Carol (El's sister) and her dog Tasha, and Betty (El's mom) were hanging out.

This was the scene when we got there:

Grandpa in his pajamas :)

Pretty Turkey-Day outfit

Mommy and baby <3

The spread

Destroying the place

Toby and Tasha, sharing a snack

Then we were supposed to stop at Gramma and Pop's for the second dinner, but since Boo-Boo was having a yucky stomache day (we won't go into detail... trust me, you DO NOT want to know), we went home instead... And had second (technically supposed to be third) dinner.

The other dinner spread.

So there you go. Not the most exciting update ever, but at least you get the idea.
