New Shoes!

Yesterday Nanny and I took Berlin to the mall to get her first pair of shoes! I got a bit emotional, I can not lie!
Let me just tell you, this kid has some round feet! She is just like her Mommy with a high arch and a high in-steep. Thus, no little Uggs (its too much $$ any way!) But it makes me sad.

Here are some pictures of the event, and later if I can turn the film sideways, I'll post that too.

Thanksgiving... early!

Our family has so many 'his, hers and ours' that about 10 years ago we started doing Thanksgiving early. I remember the last year we did it on the real Holiday, my Aunt, Uncle and their kids had to eat three meals. So we started doing it early. Which now that I'm married and have a my husbands family too, it works out really well for me!
So it was Berlins first Thanksgiving. She was a perfect angle! I was just a little bit worried because the day before, I had a girlfriend come by and Berlin freaked out! And this girlfriend was at the hospital a few days after Berlin was born, and comes by at least once a month. Any way, when we got there (30 mins late), walked in the door and heard her Grandpas voice! Berlin smiled and did not stop playing, jumping and making everyone laugh till about 530, an hour before her bedtime! She has a little turkey, yams, gravy and mashed potato's, and a lot of green beans! Then she had some apples from the inside of an apple pie and she loves her whipped cream!

1 down, 2 more to do!

Ladies and Gentleman, we have a video of walking!

And talking. She is now saying 'num' every time she puts something in her mouth. And today she said 'mama' My heart melted!

By the way, does any one have an easy way to loose some baby weight? 

its been a long time!

I've been having computer problems. But its all better now!

Berlin is now 10 months old, clapping, standing, singing and walking! She also has two teeth that have cut through, and at least one that will come in any day now. She had her first Halloween, and still does not sleep through the night!

I am working on a video of her walking. It makes the cutest little sound, and now when you say 'yay' she claps. I am working on her blowing kisses. When she does it melts my heart.

For Halloween we were a family of clowns. Nanny made Berlins costume, and I (with some help) put our costumes together. We met at Nanny and Grandpas house, got lil B dresses, then went to Uncle Curt and Aunt Amy's house for dinner and some trickier treating. All and all it was a wonderful night!
