Standing Up In Her Crib!

Vivi cannot contain her excitement about the fact that she can stand up in her crib (as well as chew on it). Lilly helped her celebrate the new milestone.

Lilly often announces that "My baby do this now all by herself!"

I am SO BIG! 

I am SO PROUD of myself!

I think I am the ONLY baby to every discover this cool trick!

I stand up and say "Mama" and giggle when she comes into check on me.. or I get stuck and cry for help to sit back down only to do it AGAIN!

 I do this for a half hour straight before going to bed now.. SO MUCH FUN!

Lilly often tells her sister "Vivi you get SO bigger!"

I Pull Up On EVERYTHING

Vivi now army crawls around and pulls up on everything, anything or anyone available. She just loves to stand! Such a BIG baby!

Baby Beethoven

Vivi LOVES playing the little mini piano. Lilly didn't give it much attention but Vivi thinks it is SO funny. There are even times when Vivi plays and Lilly sings or dances. Such a funny and cute big baby! Not to mention her crazy hair just flops around as she plays and makes her look very passionate about the music she is creating.

Tortilla Face

One day at lunch time Vivi got a tortilla stuck to her face (yes we feed her without clothes because she is seriously the messiest eater ever, she is very into textures and smearing food on her clothes).

Poor baby had NO idea she had some stuck to her face.

Lilly thought it was one of the funniest things Vivi has ever done and decided to join her (and also ripped up her food to eat like a baby too).

Look Ma, No Diaper

No picture... just a funny story...

It was warm and I was short on time to get the two girls down for their nap so I put Vivi down in just a diaper. As I was tucking Lilly in, Vivi let out the wildest, loudest giggle ever over the monitor. We rushed in to check on her and she had taken her diaper off and was waving it around and taking breaks to chew on it. Luckily it was still clean and there were no messes to clean up but she really earned some cool kid points with Lilly. Lilly thought it was the funniest thing Vivian has ever done and couldn't stop laughing about it. Both girls had a fit of giggles together and would not calm down for a nap easily and Lilly still talks about how vivi took off her diaper "all by herself and her wanna eat it too!"

Watching Lion King!

Lilly was thrilled when Grandma Ona found a copy of the Lion King on ebay for her. She was SO excited to cuddle with her lions and watch the movie.

With Simba and the mama lion enjoying the movie.

Vivi got ahold of a stray lion and enjoyed chewing on it while her sister was distracted by the movie. Such a naughty little smile! She knows when she is up to no good!

The ZOO... we finally saw some REAL LIONS

Although I didnt' get a picture of the real ones. Lilly also liked the pretend ones in the entrance area.

She didn't like the goats.. they were too scary... 

running on the concert lawn.. her favorite part.

Taking a break and sneaking some of Grandma Ona's coveted soda.
