Swimming with daddy...

Catching a father~daughter moment...

Pup wanted in too!
Yeah for me!
Sipping water, in the water...
Snuggling with daddy
(do you see pup wandering around?)
Look at moi in my pink paisley bikini!

(Do you see my new kitty hair clip? I love it! Mommy is nurturing my obsession with cats!)
Practicing my fishy arms!
All wet after daddy dunked my head!

Busy Me=Busy Mommy...

Please excuse us for awhile...we are busy! Mommy is trying to put together my one year scrapbook and she is chasing after me~ I am on a roll. So, that means she doesn't have much time to translate for me on Piggy Press! We've had such a fun weekend visiting the Austin Children's Museum and going to Houston to visit our friends The Kinder's. I will make sure mommy posts some pictures of me swimming in their pool soon...I am such a little poisson! J'adore l'eau! I love the water! Daddy taught me how to blow bubbles in the water and he practiced having me hold my breath under water, too! Don't worry, he played it safe! Happy Weekend...
Hugs and Kisses,
Paisley Grace

Part Deux!

Blowing kisses...

Reaching for the bubbles...

Water play...

Deep in thought...

Okay, so mommy couldn't resist adding a few more pictures of me
in my new sun hat!
Enjoy and Happy Friday!

Mon Nouveau Chapeau de Soleil...

Getting started...

Playing with my new sand/water toys...

Oh, a stick too!

Sitting for a moment...

To splash a little water!

Thanks goodness for mommy...she has been nurturing my desire to spend enormous amounts of time outside. I love getting dirty- quite opposite my mommy! So, on a regular basis we will have park adventures. Now, mommy has set up a water play station on our back patio. I am enjoying it thoroughly. I was not so sure about my new hat, but I guess it does the job. Fortunately for me, I can get away with this look but I would not recommend it for everyone!

Au revoir to the week of bluebonnets...

Happy family...

One more of moi!
(do you spy my pal Webb in the background???)

Daddy and I...

Mommy and me...

My favorite way to ride...

Our happy little trio!

Bluebonnets all around me...

OH JOY!

(p.s. mommy was thrilled there were no bees, or mosquitoes attacking me!
But-she got bit badly by some feisty Texas fire ants...yikes!)

Concentration...

Is a fleeting thing for my 14 month old self!

What am I staring at so intensely you ask?
What has mesmerized me for more than 5 seconds?
Why, a bluebonnet of course...
I wonder if I could take one home?

Wind...

Can you feel the wind blowing?
Such peace in this magical moment...

Daddy's pick...

My daddy loves this picture of me...he thinks I look like I am up to something!
Hmm, moi? Just showcasing my mysterious look, that's all!

Silly me...

"...filled the souls of old and young with visions of splendor, frolic and fun."
~Louisa May Alcott~

A week of bluebonnets...

Everyday mommy will be posting one bluebonnet picture of me from our adventure this weekend!

This will be bluebonnet week!
(We hope you enjoy them as much as mommy and daddy do!)

BBQ and bluebonnets...

Today has been an epic Austin day. Mommy, daddy, and I went with our pals the Hullums to Kreuz Market BBQ in Lockhart, Texas. After eating sausage and brisket with our bare hands (they don't have forks...this took mommy a moment to adjust to- we all know what a clean freak she is!) we all stopped off on the side of the road to take some photos of us darlings in the bluebonnets. Here is a sneak peek of one of the pictures mommy and daddy took of me. More pictures to follow very soon!

Vincent Van Kitty...

Poor kitty, her ear is dangling by a thread...
We are playing purses together!


J'adore mon chat!

Yes, it is true...Pup has attacked one of my favorite kitties leaving it with one good ear, and one partial ear. Hence the nickname Vincent Van Kitty (given by mommy). Oh, how I love this kitty. Everyday I kiss her good morning and kiss her goodnight! It is quite sad that she is now altered but I love her all the same...

Storytime with Daddy...

Storytime with daddy and pup...

Cheese...

I love books!

Every night before I go to bed, mommy and daddy put me through a bit of a routine. First, I eat dinner. Next, mommy strips me of my clothes and I walk around naked chasing Otto for awhile. Then, it's bath time. After my bath I always have stories. Then, it's family hugs, kisses, and prayers. Last but not least I get to have some milk and snuggle with mommy!
