Sierra Week 36 - Foy Baby

So if anyone ever wondered who Sierra looks like, the eyes in these pictures makes it pretty clear.
And if that wasn't enough, one of her favorite chew toys is a slice of bacon...
Sierra also has been working on a new milestone.  She is working on standing up on her own.  I captured this picture of Momma and Sierra working on this skill.  Momma was so proud of my camera skills!
I also learned something new this weekend.  Since it was raining today, Momma pulled out a Christmas gift that was unwrapped but never unboxed.  We played this video game for 40 minutes.  That is a long time for me to focus.  We had a great time!
It's not all video games for me.  The old school classics (as Momma calls them) are still my favorite.  Sit and Spin anyone?

Sierra Week 36 - Fall Comes to Home Sweet Home

After all of our adventures it was time for another weekend at home.  But this week the leaves started to fall and Daddy reminded me about the fun of leaf piles!  Even Sierra got into it.
And if those pictures weren't cute enough check out what a great brother I am to both of my sisters?
And in case you think I'm just all snuggles and hugs here is a last image to brighten your week.  Welcome to my funny face!

Sierra Week 35 - Labor Day Weekend DC Trip

If last weekend's adventure wasn't enough Momma and Daddy planned a fun filled trip to Nanny and Bobby's VA house.  Hurricane Earl almost caused us to cancel our plans.  But in the end he brought great weather to the D.C. area for our weekend.

We started with a trip to the National Zoo with Ms. Mel and her family.  I loved the lions the best.  Momma liked the great apes the best.  But it was the lizard house that really got Sierra and me excited.
On Sunday morning we headed out to the barn to check on Dusty.  I just loved him.  And he loved me!  Could it have had anything to do with the endless supply of carrots I was feeding him?
After the fun at the barn it was time to head back to Nanny's house for naps.  We slept well and then headed out to Daddy's friend's house, Mr. Brian and Ms. Stephanie for dinner.  It was really yummy and near this cool lake.  I had great fun playing with their kids, Aiden and Jacob.  Momma and Daddy were so excited to see me play with other boys.  SiSi tried pasta noodles for the first time at their house too.  Yum!

Nanny and Bobby, thanks for hosting such a wonderful weekend and for all the yummy meals out!

Sierra Week 34 - Ithaca Continued

If the wedding wasn't enough excitement Ms. Jeannie told us about this great playground and a local science center for kids.  Here are a few of Momma's favorite pictures.

Sierra Week 34 - Ithaca & Mr. Chris' Wedding

What an amazing adventure this weekend!  We took a ~5 hour drive up to Ithaca, NY to help celebrate Mr. Chris and Ms. Stephanie's wedding.  Momma and Daddy told me it would be at a farm, but I couldn't believe it.  But when we got there, guess what I saw?
Definitely a farm!  I thought this was the coolest place ever!  The wedding was beautiful!
Everyone was all dressed up.  Devon had on the prettiest party dress!
Sierra and I were cute too!
The best fun was the party afterwards where I introduced everyone to my CRAZY DANCE!














Did I mention they had a tire swing?  So cool!

Sierra Week 33 - Cruising

We didn't have any big outings this weekend.  Just the normal play place - yard, park, basement, etc.  But Momma had fun getting pictures of SiSi and I regardless.

Here we are cruising the driveway.  Momma is still working on getting us both to smile at the same time...
Being silly in the house!
Bowling - well I was trying.  Sierra thinks the pins make good chew toys.  Thankfully Tazz does not!
And did I mention that Sierra loves Bobby Mail as much as I do!
And playing at the playground.
Sometimes quiet weekends can be the best weekends!

Sierra Week 32 - Butterfly Festival

This weekend was the Stony Brook Butterfly Festival.  If you are wondering where Stony Brook is, its not too far.  Just by Momma's work down the road.
In fact it was so close to Momma's work that bus that took us to the festival actually picked us up from just in front of Momma's office.  I was so excited to have my first bus ride.
We had a lot of fun looking at the butterflies.  Can you find the one Daddy and I found?


After walking through the butterfly garden it was onto the carnival games.  I won my first prize!
If you are wondering where SiSi is, well she slept through almost all of our time at the festival, so Momma didn't have any fun pictures of her.  But don't be disappointed.  SiSi has started on the long journey to being able to walk on her own.  Everyone say a special prayer for Daddy's back!

Sierra Week 31 - Sports Scholarships?

What do you think, Sierra or me?  Guess we should keep practicing.
