Ride the Bull!

Georgia loves to play with her Daddy. He lets her play "Ride the Horsie" and "Ride the Bull". They have done this so much that now when Jacob tells her to ride the bull she instantly puts her hand in the air. It is comical. We were in Cavendars a few nights ago and her Uncle Jared found a vest so we decided she should model it for us. Too funny. Georgia went all over that store and oohed and aahhed over the boots.

Georgia got to go to the steer show last weekend and the first thing she did when I got her out of the stroller was go right for the manure! Wouldn't ya know. She had fun and it was great catching up with all of our friends.

Thanksgiving 2009

We spent Thanksgiving 2009 with Jacob's family at his parents' house. Georgia was glad to see her cousin Sam and the weather was so wonderful that they did get to go play outside. Georgia didn't particularly like the leaves and she didn't know what to think about Sam when he hugged on her. Here are some pictures from the day...

November

November was pretty busy. Georgia learned how to walk so I spent most of the month trying to keep up with her. She is a busy bee!

Our friends, Jo Ann & Hannah, gave Georgia a pink princess purse. She loves it and hauls it around everywhere. She also loves to hide things and the purse went missing for a while, but I did end up finding in her toy freezer. This isn't the first thing we've lost and found later, and I know it won't be the last. Here she is with her purse.
Sandy found these Christmas tree hair clips. They are a hoot and we just had to clip them in to see what they looked like. Georgia wasn't too happy about it but they sure are funny!

One of her favorite things to do is dig in the tupperware drawer. I do have a few cabinets locked where she can't get into glass, etc. but I do let her dig in the kitchen drawers when I am in there. This is a big help when I am cooking because it keeps her occupied and I can keep an eye on her.

My best friend, Aron, found an adorable brown tutu at a Baby Gap in Iowa. Just had to get it you know so here she is in it just before church a few weeks ago.

Jacob just loves to play with Georgia's crazy curly hair. It drives me crazy but he still does it on a daily basis. I had gone outside to feed the dogs and cat and when I came back they greeted me at the door with Georgia's hair like this. He does it just to get to me and this time I couldn't help but bust out laughing. The child has such curly hair! He poofs it all out to make it stand up and here's the end result...

Josef & Johan

I am so behind on blogging.... As you've read, I was able to be with my parents at the hospital during Dad's surgery. The night before his surgery, I flew into Amarillo airport and my sister, Judith, her husband, Chris and their twin boys, Josef and Johan picked me up. My night was made when Johan saw me and he came running into my arms. Man, my heart melted. It was good to see all of them and I was so glad I could spend some time with them. I also got to spend time with my sister, Jessica, and her husband Dennis on our 4 a.m. ride to the hospital and the entire day of surgery.

After my airport pick-up we went out for Mexican food. It was so good. Josef and Johan thought so too. They were so good and made me crack up quite often. Josef particularly liked the honey and enjoyed it on his tortilla chips. He kept rubbing the top of his head and therefore by the end of our meal it looked like Judith had styled it all spikey. What a great hair gel - who knew?!?!
