Look how much I've grown!!!

This picture is of me last October at 10 months old.
And this is me at 1 1/2.
I am SO big!

It's been awhile...

So, Grandma Boo and PaPa were in town the past week visiting. I was enjoying it too much to post anything but I'll try to catch up on what's been happening. M is almost 1 1/2 so we had a mini celebration and surprise, surprise, she got a few presents. The best is our new playset for the backyard.

As you can see, the grand-p's love her very much!!!

more climbing

Hello. My name is MMG and I love to climb. I need an intervention quick before my mommy loses her mind. Is there rehab for climbing? Some fancy center with yoga and icky protein shakes where everyone is famous and using an alias? I think my alias would be Gemadia. Sounds mysterious, doesn't it?

Little Curl

There was a little girl who had a little curl

Right in the middle of her forehead;

When she was good she was very good indeed,

But when she was bad she was horrid.

Memorial Day Weekend

We went to exciting and lively town of Wichita Falls, TX for Memorial Day weekend. I know, I know. It doesn't sound exciting to you but it was THE BEST!!! Our most awesomest friends live there and we spent the entire weekend doing a whole bunch of nothing (although I think I ate more in those 4 days than a normal week here at home. Darn you Brooke and your chocolate chip cookies!). Anyway, I only took two pictures the whole time and they are successive shots (so really I just got one). But, I have to say it's SOOOO cute.

Being The G or a "G"???

So M's been pretty spunky lately, mostly in a good way! Here are a couple pictures that make me wanna kiss my computer screen. Her awesomeness grows every day! She's been climbing on EVERYTHING. This one's pretty mild because I'm usually too busy getting her down from the tabletop, back of the couch, etc to snap a pic of the more ambitious scaling adventures.
In this pic she's saying "Big G in House!" She's our little gangsta!

This is her first corn on the cob. It was soooo cute to watch her figure it out! She licked all the butter off before she took a bite!

Visit to the plantations

Visions of Gone with the Wind come to mind when I hear the term plantation and my expectations were fairly appropriate. Here in southern Louisiana they farmed sugar cane, not cotton, and still do today. We visited 2 places, Oak Alley (awesome) and Nottoway (snobby & pretentious). We couldn't take the stroller inside on the tour and our Miss G doesn't like to be held so she didn't make it one minute before J took her outside. But, because she's SOOO cute and the tour guide ladies couldn't resist the father/daughter duo, they got a private tour after the large group was done. There's nothing like a man and a baby to encourage people to be super-nice!!!

Oak Alley has a 1/4 mile walk-up from the Mississippi lined with 28 (I think) live oaks. It's breathtaking!
