Week 43 - Happy Halloween '10

This year was a landmark year for Halloween and me.  We warmed up to Halloween with the annual pumpkin carving.  Momma and I picked the faces and Daddy did the knife work.

The new part, was that Sierra and I did the pumpkin cleaning.  Can you guess the differences in our personalities by the pictures below?

After all of the fun work it was time to dress up and go trick or treating.  This year I picked my own costume and decided to be Buzz Lightyear.  Momma picked Tinker Bell for Sierra since it was the only costume she could find without a hood.  Momma must have put at least three layers of "warmth" under the costumes.  So if the camera puts on 10 pounds, Momma must have added another 20 to us!

Before we went out trick or treating Daddy lit the pumpkins.  Momma took another couple of pictures of me with the pumpkins.  Daddy did such a great job carving them for us.  A note to all of those who saw the bumpy pumpkins this year and thought you should get one next year.  Daddy says they are really tough to cut.  Power tools only!

Once the pumpkins were lit it was time to head out trick or treating.  Sierra and I visited about 8 houses in our neighborhood.  We saw lots of friends from the park.  I'm still working on my "trick or treat", but I was a rock star with "thank you".  Who knew people would give you candy just for being cute and polite?

We hope you all had a Happy Halloween and that you had your own Tinker Bell lighting your way!

Week 43 - Sierra Shares our Meal

My little sister hit a new milestone this weekend.  For the first time, she ate the same dinner that Daddy, Momma and I ate.  You might think this means that we stepped our meals down a bit to make this happen.  But that just isn't the way.  Sierra is now a certified steak loving, potato eating little girl.

She ate everything up that Momma and Daddy gave her.  She even asked for seconds on the steak.  Is she a Foy or what?!

 Si-Si loved Daddy's cooking so much that she ended the meal with a high-five to Daddy!

So next time you are visiting, keep an eye on you plate, because its all Sierra food now!

Week 42 - Happy Birthday to ME!

Talk about a great weekend!  This week everyone came over to our house to celebrate my 3rd birthday.  Uncle Sean and Devon even drove all the way down for the party from MA.  It was great fun having them as house guests.  On the big day, Momma and I decked out the house in my Diego theme.  Before we knew it the guests were arriving!

We warmed up our appetites with some outdoor fun!  It was so nice that everyone came outside to play.  There was baseball, soccer, slides and more.  I impressed everyone with my ability to connect the bat to the ball!  Momma even caught a snap shot of it.

Devon had lots of fun too on the slides in my playhouse.

After a yummy lunch of baked ziti made by Daddy, it was onto the main event.... CAKE!  Thanks Nanny and Bobby for my Diego cake!

I loved every last bite!

 After cake we all gathered around and I did my best to open all of my presents.  I felt so lucky to have so many fun new things to play with!  A special thanks to everyone for EVERYTHING!  I've put them all to great use.

 Sierra's favorite was my upgraded 4x4 Tractor from Nanny and Bobby.  Look out world, Si-Si is already starting to figure out how to drive my old Jeep!

 I feel so lucky that I was able to spend my 3rd birthday with all my family and friends.  Here's wishing that next year will be as great as this one was!

Sierra Week 41 - When Momma Knows Its Time to Come Home

Sierra Week 40 - Irish Eyes

The light this weekend had Momma grabbing her camera more than normal.  So you can guess how much that was!  But it did result in the first picture that Momma has taken of Sierra Tazz and I where all of our faces could be seen at the same time.  Tazz's eyes sparkle Irish in this picture!  Must have been because of the squirrel she heard.

Tazz's eyes weren't the only ones to impress Momma this weekend.  Look whose blue eyes were shinning in the guest room.  We always knew that Sierra had beautiful blue eyes!

Not to be out done by my little sister, Momma captured my eyes in action!

 

And because Momma couldn't resist, here are our "awe..." moments of the weekend...

Sweet dreams everyone!

Sierra Week 39 - Walking!

Its official, Momma came home from India and Sierra put on her walking shoes!  Take a peak at this video and see what all the excitement is about!

We also headed out to the pumpkin store to find our Halloween pumpkins for this year.
Both Sierra and I had fun playing at the garden center.

We also had some fun with the stomp rockets.  Each in our own way of course!

No one was safe from Momma's camera today.  Even Tazz had to smile pretty!

We hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather as much as we are!

Hugs to everyone!

Sierra Week 37 - Sesame Place

Before Momma left for her trip to India we headed out on a family adventure to Sesame Place.  I was pretty slow to warm up to the activities.  The giant slide was the first ride that convinced me that it was worth getting out of the stroller.

As you might guess from the picture, Momma rode the slide too.  Then it was on to the games!  I won my second carnival prize by catching a fish/frog with Daddy.

But as much as Momma tried to get me to go on a ride I just wasn't going to do it...  Then she pulled out the secret weapon.  Sierra!  After lunch Momma said she and Sierra was going to ride the carousel horses.

So guess who decided that it would be a good idea to ride them?....

After the horses it was on to the water park.  I had a great time in the tidal pool!

As did Sierra...

Then we tackled the biggest water side there is...

It was a great time at the park!
