Happy 2009, Miss Bini!

Siena,

It's the first day of 2009 and I can't believe that your first Christmas just came and went! Your first Santa Claus, your first Christmas presents and you ended the year by learning how to sit down from standing on your own. WHEW! Luckily the "stuck" phase didn't last too long.

Here's a visual recap of December, 2008:

Your first Christmas tree ornament


The lights festival at Griffith Park


Gigi & Pops visit




They gave you your first Chiefs cheerleader outfit


Your first winter coat


Christmas shopping


Visit with Santa




Standing up on your own


getting stuck


Waking up Christmas morning




Opening presents

















Christmas afternoon




playing peekaboo with Lola in Stockton


with Lolo


visiting Uncle Mike & Baby Simon




Last day of 2008




You're on your second walk of the day, on the first day of the year with Lolo & Lola. Gotta finish taking down the ornaments off the tree before you get back!

Love you, Monkeroo!

Mommy
