Happy New Year!
We celbrated New Year's Eve at a Irish New Year's party. It was lots of fun and we got to celebrate New Year's at Irish time (7pm), so we could go home a put Bella to bed. We watched the ball drop on TV later.

Bella's First Christmas!
Bella had a wonderful first Christmas(and four month birthday)! We all woke up and said goodbye to Chris. He had been visiting for a few days. Bella had a great time with him--and so did we! Thanks for coming down to visit us!
Then, it was time to open presents. We opened our stockings first. Unfortunately, Santa left Capo a pile of coal in his stocking. I guess he'll have to try to get off of the naughty list next year. Bella got a lot of great presents! She didn't want to take off her new hat from G-ma. She thinks she's the house jester. She also loved playing on her new monkey blankie that the Blumes sent her. She was enchanted by the lights on the tree when we laid her under it. What a cutie!
After presents (which we managed to stretch out through most of the afternoon), it was time for a bath and then a story. She got to listen to her Aunt Dawnie reading Humphrey's First Christmas to her. That was very special. Aunt Dawnie, Uncle Scott, Trevor, Greyson, and Brodrick sent us a big box of wonderful things, but the most wonderful gift was a CD of their family signing songs and reading stories for Bella. She absolutely loves listening to it.
Then, Gramma came home, and it was time for more presents.
Bella had a wonderful Christmas! Thanks to everyone who thought of us today, and made it so special. Merry Christmas!!!

Family Christmas Party
We celebrated Christmas with some of our extended family today. It was a really fun day, and it was really great to see everyone. Thanks to everyone who traveled such a long way to come and see us! We really missed our family that couldn't be there today. Hopefully we'll see all of you soon! Bella figured out that she's going to have to learn to talk a lot to fit into this family. :)
Fun With Josh and Noah

Merry Christmas Crazy Crumbs!
Bella and Regan exchanged Christmas gifts today. Regan got her a baby's first Christmas bib and an ornament with Bella's name on it. Thank you Regan!
They had a really great time together. Bella REALLY laughed for the first time. She thought that Regan was hilarious--she's fun just like her mom and dad. Bella was laughing at her for about two minutes straight. She got Anne, Jacque and Mommy cracking up too. Her little laugh is contagious.

More New Stuff
Check out the progress! She's actually starting to like tummy time now that she can hold her head up better. She's also really started playing with toys. She won't just drop them an forget about them. She'll pick them back up and, of course, get back to work on figuring out how to get whatever it is into her mouth.

Bella Sees Santa Again!
Bella ran into Santa twice this weekend! Once at the mall and once at Daddy's squadron Christmas party. Santa is making the rounds in Norfolk! Mommy thinks that she heard Bella ask Santa for a cell phone. Kids want those things younger and younger these days.
PS I'll fill in the older pics later. I just wanted to throw something out there for the baby picture monster. :)
Don't Go See Santa on Sunday

Bella Meets Santa for the First Time!
Bella met Santa today for the first time at Todd's squadron. Santa flew in on a helicopter and he brought a huge elf with him that looked a lot like Uncle Pete.
First Day in the High Chair
Today was Bella's first day in her high chair. Those high chair people are very safety conscious these days. As you can see, the high chair is fitted with a five point harness in case of an accidental launch into the atmosphere. How did we live through our childhoods? Really. All I remember (from the pictures) is a single lap belt when I was a baby. Anyway, she really enjoyed her very safe high chair. She like being up at the table, so she could see everyone. The bouncy seat on the floor just wasn't cuttin it anymore--this seemed to do the trick.

The Fauxhawk
Here you can see Bella sporting her new favorite hairdo that her daddy gives her: the fauxhawk. Here she is modeling her new hairstyle in the Bumbo chair, her bouncy seat, and in her boppy pillow. It's really catching on with other babies this season.

Happy Halloween!
Bella was a pea pod for Halloween. She was the cutest pea poddess ever (the cutest pea pods--of course--were Caleb and Cody)! Our neighborhood had a pot luck, so Bella and Grama and Mommy went out there and ate and gave out candy. Poor Daddy had to fly, so he rushed home to get some pictures with the pea pod before he flew. It was a good first halloween.

Taking a Walk
The Pumpkin Patch
Today we went to the pumpkin patch with Vicki and the Deweys. Bella wouldn't wake up at first, so we had her snuggle up with her pumpkin in her stroller. Once she woke up we went for the photo ops. Regan and Bella were so cute! Regan was fascinated with Bella. We even went on a little hayride. Bella wasn't that into it. She started crying at the end (see the crying pics). Maybe she just isn't a country girl.

Happy Two Month Birthday!
Bella went to the doctor today for her first round of shots (not the greatest two month birthday celebration). Poor thing! She was very good. As you can see, she was happy as a clam a few hours afterwards (see her little tweety band-aids). She's been growing! She weighed 12 lbs 8oz and was 24 1/2 inches long. She's grown 3 1/4 inches since she was born! She's gonna be a tall one-just like Mommy.
