blur

that's right. the holidays were a blur. so i need to relive them here, enjoy them again.
merry christmas!

sweet little christmas tree

here renee is on christmas day with a sweet little bunny her aunt betsy gave her

here Renee is partying (again!) this is her Aunt Terrell holding her at her Aunt Sarah's party

and here she is donning some of her beautiful christmas presents! She has a better wardrobe than her parents!

renee's caribbean vacation

she's baaaack! She survived the havoc of the holiday season and even managed to squeeze in a wedding in paradise.

renee is napping in the little tent.


here she has awoken and is ready for her lunch of tropical fruit and french fries, yum!

she got lots of love from the grand folks

she got a little bit wild at times, i think it was all the rum punch!
well, that and the jenny cakes.

but, this is the look she gives when you try to rein her in.
she's not havin' it.

omigosh!

Okay, this is not a baby post, but I couldn't resist. Jen will like this one, if she hasn't seen it yet. It's not kitty torture, it's for kitty charity, it's KITTY WIGS!

So, if you haven't thought of what to get that special kitty in your life, now you know.

Happy Christmas!!


ooh wait!
this just in!! there are going to be chihuahua wigs too! mom H. (aka gigi) won't be disappointed!

Yo quiero cabello rizado.
Yo quiero taco hell también.

Scary Parade

OK we live in Bizzarrro world. There we are having a nice domestic evening in the terraced house, Momma, baby and me. When all the sudden a loud BANG BOOM CLANG is heard outside the door. What is it? We all ran to the door and I lifted the sash to see and we were met with this spectacle...

It seems it was time for another Pagan ritual to be played out on our street. I love this country! But Renee was scared! I got out my Faerie gun and fired a few rounds but no one was hurt.

Then she calmed down and settled in for a good read.

"I'm reading! Pictures Later" she demanded!

Then her vanity caught up with her, "OK, but just one picture! Ha ha ha, one I said!"

Garbled Talks!

Ok it's me again back for more breaking news. Dateline England: Baby says "Dada." Yes, her first word is "dada" Which obviously means she's aware of the art movement of the same name.

And more evidence...

Notice she says "uh huh" at the end.

Next word we are teaching her, "antidisestablishment" or "mama."

Back to you Shannon...

little baba ghanoush

It's getting cold around here...brrrr! So we had to bundle Renee up in a little snowsuit to go for a walk today. She reminds me of the boy on A Christmas Story when his mom bundles him up so much he can barely move.

look at those little teefers! She is so cute you have to kiss her!

let's go!!

look at who's

learning to sit up!

she still falls over a bit like a drunken soldier, so we have to surround her with pillows.
she sends kisses to everyone!
Happy Thanksgiving.
