Oy.

Tututable.

What Zoo?

When I tell people that we dragged Elle out to the Austin Zoo to enjoy the scraggly animals in 100 degree heat, the first comment is always - "Austin has a zoo?"

No one will ever mistake it for San Diego - but ugly animals need love too...

Seemed like the perfect food:



The only animal that was dumb enough to come out of the shade:


Duckelle:

Hi5

Booty.

Back in the Day.

Hallow.06

Tutututututu.

Laughing in the pink:

Look Up!

Birthday Recap.

The festival of elle's first birthday lasted over a few days...so here are some scenes from the weekend:

Texas Tough in a Tutu:



The Ballon Monster:



Go-Go-Ninja-Dinosaur Cake:



For future reference, EVERYONE that lives at Bonita prefers the icing from Central Market:



Officially, totally, partied-out:

Reeee-mixxxx.

Life was so rough back in October...

Icing on the Cake.

Did elle have a good birthday?

I think a picture will say a thousand words:

Feliz Cumpleanos!

O.N.E.

What a difference a year makes...from this squeeky, little cuddle-machine:



To this goofy, screaming, tasmanian devil of fun:

Queso!

She doesn't chew, she doesn't swallow - she stuffs:

uh-oh.

The Point.

Rewind Sunday.

2 weeks old...

Cervezita.

Looks like elle has been hitting the Dos XX...again!

Meow Mix.

In an effort to divert elle's attention away from their dog, our friends volunteered this feline to keep her company...she has perfected putting it in a classic wrestling sleeper-hold:

Rat in the Cabinet.

Teddy.

As the title suggests....'The Most Inappropriate Baby Sex in a TV Diaper Ad"

Rewind Sunday.

One week old - and quiet...

Slide.

"Uhhhh,,,,You want ME to go down THAT?"

Speechless.

No, seriously. What could I possibly say about this photo that could make it any more funny that it already is?

Shell.

Just pretend that you are driving to Lubbock on a rainy Friday afternoon....now pretend that you are somewhere on HIghway 84 about halfway between the metropolis of Snyder, but not quite to Post...now pretend that you absolutely, completely run out of gas - with nothing (no really, nothing) in sight.

Well...hypothetically speaking, if that happened - this is the look that your daughter would give you:

Window Shopping.
