Scarlet wears her pretty dress to a wedding.

Scarlet all excited to see the big "hitching ceremony" begin.

A couple of weeks ago, Scarlet got to attend her very first wedding. A good friend of Ginger's got married in downtown Dallas and we all put on our fancy duds and went to see her (Dennise) and her man (Joe) "get hitched". It was a very nice outdoor ceremony and little Miss Scarlet was quite popular with many of the Aramark (the company G works for - and Dennise use to work for) people that had not seen Scarlet as yet. Scarlet looked oh so pretty in her cute little cream dress with red & pink flowers and was quite a good little girl through the whole thing. Only later during cocktails and just before dinner did she want her own dinner course. Then after Momma took care of that and Daddy held her after woofing down his food so Momma could eat something, did Scarlet drift off to sleepy-by-land for the night.

Beautiful Dennise coming down the aisle.

Momma helping Scarlet show off her pretty little dress (minus her cute dress shoes that she worked off her feet after only about 20 minutes)!

All the excitement was just too much for Scarlet & she gave out later during dinner in Daddy's arms.

Coming soon: sitting up!

For those of you with kiddos over the age of 2 or so, you missed out on one of the best baby inventions ever; the "bumbo." Our friend Doris had one for her little boy, Emery, and I thought it was the coolest thing, so I knew when we were creating our baby registry that it had to be on the top of the list (thank you Nana). Its made up of this hard foam like substance and is high in the back so that it give's the baby support. I'm sure Scarlet will be sitting up much sooner that she would have without it. PLUS, it will be a great booster seat for her someday. Check out these pictures of her "sitting."

This one was taken while momma was at work as you can tell from the just-rolled-out-of-bed hairdo. Oh, daddy.....

I love this little onesie. Too bad she is already growing out of it. :(

Love the expression on her face.

"I want to try some"

Momma got new glasses a couple of weeks ago and when I went to pick them up, Scarlet BEGGED me to try some on too. I just happened to have the camera with me that day so I took some pictures of her. While we hope she doesn't NEED glasses, we think she would be very cute if she did!

More "artsy-fartsy" photos.

Here's another cool shot Daddy took of Scarlet where she was fast asleep, but somehow she was giving this very unique hand signal. I don't know if she is doing subconscious signing for the deaf, or if she is starting to count how many millions it will take to send her to college in the year 2025. Either way it is a nice looking photo - especially in black & white.



And the second picture here is a bit of a freaky looking motion picture where she has TWO faces! I was playing around with the manual camera settings and the existing low light in the room and of course she did her typical "Hey what is over there on this side?" quick head turn while I was trying to take a long exposure shot. So the creative credit goes to Scarlet on this one.

Daddy thinks the "look-a-like meter" is a little off.

Daddy is of the opinion that the little web applet that momma found is skewing things toward mommies just a wee bit. Daddy believes that meter should be WAY, WAY over on the Daddy side of things if it really worked. Just see for yourself. Enclosed is a new picture (well a couple of weeks ago - but new on here) of our super pretty little girl, along with a picture of her daddy when he was 11 months old. (I had to use a picture of when I actually had grown some hair as I was quite bald as a newborn.)
