Wagon Ride

Since it was a relatively "nice" day on Saturday, we finally got to take Natalie for a ride in her new wagon. As you can see from the photos she loved it! Ally was pretty excited about it too. :)

Natalie's First Christmas

Visions of sugar plums?Look what Santa brought!

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we went to Aunt Patricia's church in Berkeley Springs, WV. It was a small service but a great celebration! I was especially excited because Natalie FINALLY got to wear her adorable Christmas outfit. :)

First "Real" Snow

Now that we live in Maryland, Natalie has experienced two "real" snowfalls. She enjoyed "playing" until she fell and got wet and cold. The second time she went sledding which she also liked until she fell off face first! Hopefully she won't grow up to hate snow like her Momma!

Picking Apples

We went to Baugher's farm yesterday and picked apples. As always, we picked WAY too many! I guess it's time to start making pies. :) Natalie had a great time especially once Daddy found her a baby-sized apple to suck on.

First Trip to the Ballpark

To celebrate Father's Day (belatedly) Natalie "treated" Ryan to an Orioles game at Camden Yards. I think Natalie's favorite parts were trying to get everyone's food (in fact she made a noise that sounded just like "oh wow" when the hot dogs arrived :)) and trying to get into the purse of the woman sitting next to us. Oh well...I guess she will have to learn to love baseball just like Mommy did!

Surprise!

Last week I sat Natalie in her crib and turned to her changing table to pack her diaper bag for a day out. I heard a strange noise, turned around, and this (see first photo below) is what I saw! She pulls herself up at every opportunity now, although it doesn't always work out the way she'd like. I think we are in for a lot of bumps and bruises!
