Play time!!!!

Kicking it in her chair with her rattle-buddies!



And here in her swing with her chew toys, rattles and other colorful noise making thingies!

Here Mishka's fascinated with her little lamb that plays some music




And after all the excitement....SLEEP!!! :)

Grampa makes the blog!

Well, it only took 2 months to get a picture of Grampa with Mishka from his 90th b-day party, but we got it!!! Pretty cool too :)


Grampa and Mishka posing for the camera!



Another action shot with Mishka waving!

Tummy time on the mat!

What up dogg?!?!?







Getting tired of tummy time...






Now just pissed at tummy time!

And we're back to giggles!!!

Papa's got a brand new blog!

I got the camera back, WHOOHOOOO!!!
So here's what we've got to serve up...



Check out my blue bonnet that matches my eyes and cute smile!!!!



I love my aunt Sindy, look how happy she makes me!!!





Tummy time! This is one of daddy's favorites as there is a picture of daddy as a little baby and Topa that is very similar to this!!!! Very cool :)






Random picture proving that Mommy and Daddy still get out and kick it every so often! This particular event was Anna and Matt's wedding, thanks to Topa and Kama for babysitting Mishka!

Did ya miss me!!!!!

Hello fellow bloggers!!!!

Many apologies for the lack of pics and posts lately! Camera issues along with INSANE schedules of the parents have not been conducive to blogging. But we're back with some random pics :)


This is Mishka in her orange "Hello, here I am" on piece outfit.

Lil' Miss Thang is a little bundle of energy! She has been talking and interacting like a madwoman. She has ALMOST figured out how to role over (she might do it while I'm posting here) and is very interested in everything going on around her!
This weekend we were blessed to be able to hang out at Aunt Beth's camp in northern Maine (Livermore) and Mishka took a hike or two with her parents and is enthralled with the outdoors, which is cool.
Mishka has also been very busy making sure her Mommy has a great Namesday and Birthday as she's already given her a couple neat presents (soduku book and clothes from Ann Taylor Loft...she really knows what Mommy likes!!!!) along with alot of smiles and kisses.



Here's a pic of Mommy and Mishka hiking around a week ago on the Cape!


If you've got Mishka pics, please send them to me!!!!

Outtie,
Daddy DB

More interactive pics

Party at Suzie and Shawn's a few weeks back, Suzie is holding her nephew Ian who is staring at Mishka, who is staring right back!










Here's another pic from Camryn's christening, side view of Daddy and Mishka...okay, so there's a little similarity. :)






Aunt Erin got in on some of the fun, getting Mishka to laugh and giggle a little bit!





Mishka Update:
Teething season is upon us, which means the sleep is more erratic and the screams are that much more loud. GOOD TIMES!!!! (note the sarcasm ;)) Thankfully Mommy is a saint and is increadibly patient with her, and Daddy has been creative in terms of trying things to calm her down (who knew chewing on cloth could be so entertaining!). Mishka has also been spending time with her new babysitter, Krista, and her boy Isak, which has been cool as well!
She's alert, very talkative, and growing like a weed (25 inches long, 15 lbs, 4 ozs).

That's all for today.

Enjoy

Daddy DB

My how she grows!

Some great pics of Mishka during the past week...just a glimpse of how amazing this little girl is, if these pics don't bring a smile to your face, I'm not sure what will! ;)




Hey, check out my tie-dye t-shirt and my giggly smile!





Now check out what Mishka's learned to do with her thumb!!!!









Hey there, what's going on!!!



Look everyone, I can hold my breath and then spit!!







I've got a cool bow!!!!!!




Big smile (this one is daddy's favorite pic!)

Some of Mishka's Christening

I wish I could post the clip of Mishka getting dunked (with a commentary from Uncle Luke!), but I can't get that posted just yet...so here are a few.



This is right before the service, Mishka was very alert and pretty social...it lasted until she got hungry...







That's when poor Uncle Nico got the brunt of her wailing and flailing! Mind you, this is before she got dunked...talk about a ticked off little kid!







Here's Mishka in her Christening gown (same one her Babu wore!) at Nico and Ange's afterward, just chilling and taking in the scenery!

Here comes the Meyer's clan!!!

Okay, we've got some pics...first up, some pics from Camryn Meyer's christening party!

Here are the cousins! Payton's on the left, Camryn is infront of Mishka (sitting) who is in front of Cole (who's showing everyone his tongue and teeth!), and then there's Bella on the right!

Here's Payton making funny faces at Mishka (she was AWESOME with Mishka!) with Camryn looking to get into some of the fun.

3 lovely ladies! Payton, Bella & Mishka









Payton's talking to Mishka again...they were fast friends :)
