Ariana got her first teeth!

...from the Halloween store!

We couldn't resist a silly teeth pacifier.

Ben and I just sit and laugh at her. But we really did notice today that she finally sprouted her first tooth.
And she's getting enough hair now to have bed head.

My SIL photoshopped this pic for me. It is so adorable. I just had to post it also.

The next top model

Ariana and I went to a baby consignment sale last night and found her some really cute clothes and shoes. Of course today she begged me to try stuff on her and take pics.

I love this one. I don't know if that's a gang sign she's throwing out or what!



Here she's showing off her little leather skirt with a Scottie sweater and boots. I couldn't resist a baby leather skirt!



This outfit was so cute, I love baby hats. She was already done with the clothes changing and modeling though.



She agreed to pose for one last pic though in exchange for a shoe (she's very easy to please sometimes). She said the rest of the clothes modeling will have to be put off for another day though.

Random pics...

There isn't really anything new going on so I thought I'd throw some random stuff up.
First of all Ariana wanted to say "HI!"



And show off what a big girl she is now!





She'll be 9 months old on Thursday. She's growing sooooo fast! She can actually fit into some 18 month clothes!

A few weeks ago I was taking some pics of myself (doesn't everyone do that!). When I was looking at them later I noticed two things. First of all how terribly dirty my mirror was! Second I noticed this cute little head in the lower right hand corner. I didn't even realize she was there at the time.



Well, since it is almost 1am I should try to get her to bed. If I'm lucky she'll look like this in about half an hour.

2 for 1

You get a 2 for 1 special with this video. I finally got her sitting up and she has learned how to wave and "say" bye-bye. She's too cute. Sorry the room was a little dark for video.

Giant slug caught on video!

I finally got some video of Ariana "crawling". She doesn't really crawl though, she just pulls herself around like a giant slug. At least she doesn't leave a slime trail. She can also push herself back up into a sitting position, but I haven't been able to capture that exciting feat on video yet!

The happy family

A few weeks ago I was playing with my new digital camera and found that it had a smile feature. You could take a picture of a person and if they weren't smiling you could choose that option and it would distort the pic to make it look as if the person were smiling. Of course I went crazy playing with it. These are some of my favorite results...

Of course I had to include Ben in the fun...



And just to be fair I'll have to throw one of me in...
