Merry Christmas!
Sorry for the slack posting. I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas!

We had a great Christmas. Of course, Alina was more interested in tissue paper than her actual gifts, but it was still fun:



Here is a video of Alina dancing to Otis Redding on Christmas Eve morning:

Hi!

This will be really quick, but I wanted to post a video of Alina walking!

PEEK-A-BOO!

Before going to Nashville with Daddy last Friday (my favorite part is around 1:01 when she sees herself in the mirror):

This is the look she gave the cat:


and then she smiled at me because she loves the cat!


Ready to go to Vavรด's!



Silly faces:

This is how she sleeps:



I don't think it looks very comfortable!

Alina loves her elephant:











Oops!

Not happy (I took away her paci):



Okay! Never mind:

October 10:

Alina, Rocco, and I went to New Bern! We went downtown to the Mumfest with Nana and met up with Pop downtown. We had a delicious lunch at Morgan's and then walked over to Christ Episcopal, where they had a pumpkin patch:










We also went to the little playground at the church. Alina loved the swing!



Alina spent a lot of time looking at the big dog Bailey:



October 11:

Since Alina loved the swing so much, we went back on Sunday!







Now we need to find a nice park with swings in Raleigh!

Alina was happy this morning, except for when I took her paci away so I could take her picture:





We got some good videos of Alina swinging, but they're not online yet. In the meantime, here's a choppy one from my BlackBerry:

Alina thought playing with her pacifiers was more fun than getting her picture taken:

I can't believe it's already October!

October 1:



Alina seems to have figured out that she can make funny faces for the camera:











It's been really cool this week and it made me realize that Alina outgrew all of her socks! Oops. I got some more for her yesterday.

Alina is really teething right now and wants her paci constantly. I tried to take it out for the pictures, but that didn't go over very well.
