Trick or Treat, Aren't I Sweet?

For Caleigh's 1st Halloween, she is a UNLV Cheerleader.

Isn't she the cutest cheerleader you've ever seen?

  

Here she is with the loot she got from the Trunk-or-Treat.

  

Can you tell....

 

She's a sucker for suckers!!

 

Here she is saying "Where did all my candy go?"

 

"I WANT IT BACK!"

I know, stealing candy from a baby is cruel, but Mommy's got a sweet tooth, too :)

Calender Girl

Caleigh has another photo shoot coming up to be in Wynn Las Vegas' Le Reve calender for next year.  They are taking photos of the employee's babies born in 2008, and since Greg works in the carpentry department, they wanted to do something along the lines of what he does.  So, we painted some tools pink, stuck Le Reve stickers on them, borrowed a friends work bench...and here are the amateur shots we got of our cute little carpenter.  (Plus, she's actually smiling.  YAY!)

My Little Stinker

So, today was Caleigh's big day.  Kelly told me about her friend Corrine that was looking for baby models for her little company.  She had seen pics of Caleigh and was interested. Caleigh's photo shoot was scheduled for this morning, so I made sure she was bathed, groomed, fully rested and fed before we got there.  But, by the time it was time to shoot, she decides that she's not in the mood for pictures.  She didn't have a problem with wearing the bows or braceltes (which, by the way, are super cute!), but I don't think she smiled in any of the shots.  She was more interested in eating the jewelry around her wrist.  I brought TJ along also since he seems to always make her smile, but it didn't work.  I hope Corrine was able to get at least a few good photos from it.  We'll see.  Here are some snaps I got of her (not smiling).

When we got home, she had a nice long 2 1/2 hour nap.  Then, by the end of the day, she was all smiles.  Here's TJ finally making her laugh....

Happy Birthday TJ!!!

I can't believe how fast time has flown by. TJ is 13 today! 13?!?! How did that happen?

Seems like just yesterday that he was turning 1. Wasn't he a cutie pie?!!! 

He still looks the same though...mohawk and all :)

What really amazes me is how much Caleigh looks like her big brother when he was a baby.  She is 8 months old today.  Here are her latest pics...

I love my beautiful babies!!!

Friday Fun

We had a fun day today.  This morning, Caleigh and I went to our first Play Group together.  She had fun with the other kids, playing with the balls & bubbles & crawling around & getting dirty.  (I forgot my camera at home, but believe me...her hands, knees, feet & face were black!  Thank goodness for wipes!)

Later on, after we got cleaned up, we met Kelly & Eli for lunch. Destination:  Cafe Rio.  (Good choice for your birthday lunch Kelly!)  It was YUMMY!!!

Eli is so big now!  Can't believe he's 20 pounds and wearing 12 month old clothes.  Caleigh is 3 weeks older than him and looks so petite next to him.

But she's growing up, too.  Here she is showing off her first tooth.  Such a cute smile!

After lunch, took TJ & Caleigh to the park.

Here's TJ taking Caleigh down the slide.  Now, he is turning 13 this month, and he already has that teenage attitude at times, but when it comes to being a big brother, he is great!  She loves him so much.

She can't get enough of her TJ!!!
