11 months and counting

Hard to believe it's just one month until Garland is 1...She's pretty excited about her first birthday and has been calling all her friends to tell them about it. According to her, it's imperative that they come...


...or they will miss her fine piano skills. And, she would hate for them to do that.


She's pretty sure her cousin Mallie will come, as she doesn't miss a party, but figures it doesn't hurt to show her a little extra love just in case.


and she ensures everyone that there will be plenty of tp that they can unroll and string around the house. It's her favorite past time currently, and she is positive that everyone will enjoy taking part in the festivities.



She did stop her campaign long enough for me to get her 11 month picture. It was a good thing that this one turned out. It's the only one I was able to take, before she was off to take on the world.

The pig and the pumpkin

Garland was a pig for her first Halloween.


She's pretty aware of the pose - in fact, we got her outside for her school parade and she abandoned the parade, walked right over to a bench and gave us her favorite older the shoulder smile. Tyra watch out...


We hung out a little with cousin Mallie - the lady bug.

Then went to a Halloween party where Garland was very intrigued by her buddy Katharine's crab costume.



Lastly, we finished the night at home for some rainy and cold trick or treating...




And after tiring of the pig outfit and the pumpkins...we had a small melt down before bed.
