Monkey Business

We have been very busy here in the Rowell household. We have been preparing for the Valvoda family to come visit for a couple days. In the meantime, Bella has been very involved at daycare. She is stealing other babies' pacifiers - out of their mouth nonetheless! She wants to walk all the time and is almost to the point of crawling. She can scoot and pull herself along with her arms - wont be long now! She loves to climb on things too - pillows, tables, even people! She gabs a mile a minute too - we're in for an earful from this one!

Cute as a Button

Just lounging around the house.... cute as can be. Now that I can get around a little easier, when I'm not sleeping I'm into everything I can get my hands on. Cords, dog hair, chewies, pens..... you name it, I want it! I'm well on my way to becoming a little lady. Now over twenty pounds and fitting into 12-18 month clothing, I am one bundle of joy.

Marine Corps Ball

November 7th, my parents went to their last Marine Corps Ball. Dad was dressed as a Marine from 1775 complete with the wig and musket. Imagine that.... a night without Bella!

Happy as can be!

She is such a happy baby, I can't believe it! Everything she sees makes her smile, especially her daddy. These are pictures from this week - one clothed and one bearing it all! Clothes or not, she is one beautiful little girl.
