FINALLY!!!

Grandpa McCarty built Jovi's wall bookshelves when he came in September.

The shelves that Ben said he would have done BEFORE Jovi was born.

However, he just got them painted last week, and then Mommy hung them up.

...But that's okay...they look great, and now Jovi has a reading corner.

Now for Ben to build the toy chest & DVD shelf he said he would build for the living room.

Oh...and the book shelves for Jovi's closet.

Ha, that will be a couple years from now, I'm sure.

Picture Time

Jovi got a "play" camera for Christmas and she loves to look at herself in the mirror (lense).

And push the buttons...

Destined to be a photographer maybe?

New Year's Eve

"Are we really doing the stupid hat thing?"

Happy New Year's Girl

Mommy and Jovi

CHEEEEESE!!!

Jovi's First Christmas!

I think Santa likes Jovi. The entire blue stack is from Santa.

The green packages to the right are from our family and friends.

Santa gifts.

Santa visited Isaac, too.

...and mommy...

...and daddy!

He even left us a note on our chalkboard.

And ate some of our Christmas cookies that we made on Christmas Eve.

Yummy.

Jovi opening presents.

Mommy had to help get some of them out of the packages.

She even got two kangaroo toys. Like mother like daughter.

Santa also brought her a big girl car seat.

Yea!!! She liked it!

ALOT!!!

Visions of Sugarplums?

Christmas Eve

Jovi was ready to open gifts early, but we had to wait for Santa Claus.

Not a bit spoiled.

"Check out that shirt..."Dear Santa, I want it all."

Can You Say Precious?

And the Climbing Begins...

Aynslee Turns 2!!!

Jovi and Aynslee Sharing.

This was Jovi's 2nd birthday party ever. She had tons of fun with Aynslee, and eating cake too.

Blowing out the birthday candles.

"Yummy!"


"I surrender...no more cake!"

Jovi's very first Christmas present. She liked the unwrapping part.

There's nothing like ripping off that paper. :)

Aynslee opening her bday gifts.

"Look at all those cool toys Aynslee just got. Wow!"

Happy 2nd Birthday Aynslee!

You're a great friend, and a terrific little lady!
