Warning: lots of photos of Shona

Sooo...where did I leave off last time? Oh yes, I posted photos of National Night Out. That was October 6. The next day was my birthday--and let's not get into unnecessary details like, how old I am--but even if (*if*) I got older, it was worth it because I got really special treatment. 1.) Caleb took me out for dinner at the Italian Deli here in town. I really enjoyed it. It was such a cute little place and the food was amazing. 2.) Nat surprised me with a turbo vacuum. Yep, if Nat buys something, it's gotta be turbo. ;-) But hey, it's a pretty powerful vacuum! 3.) Sarah gave me a wicker bench and ottoman (photo is somewhere below), and she and I spent the day repainting it and it looks as good as new. 4.) Caleb bought me a laptop!!! And it's pink! It just arrived yesterday, actually. It has a 500 GB hard drive, so it's just perfect for storing all my millions of pictures. :-P

Okay, here I am on my way to the Italian Deli with Caleb and Shona:

Here is Shona on the way to the restaurant. She looks smug. I think she thought it was her birthday.

Here is the bench and ottoman from Sarah:

Here is a random photo of Shona eating a book. Don't worry, it was a nutritious one.

This is a before and after photo so you can see how Shona scoots around. It's kinda old, though. She scoots a lot more now.

Straight out of the tub, looking very cuddly:



Mommy and Shona - some random day:

Being silly:





Enjoying her jumperoo:

Just being her cute self:





All ready for bed:

Hi Leah,
I'm not so good at remembering these things, but I'm sorry I missed your birthday. So here's a very belated Happy Birthday, but it sounds like you had a lovely day anyway.
Shona's looking very cute and a lot bigger than when I saw her!

Love MJ

Lovely photos. Shona is just tooooo cute! :) I want to give her a big cuddle - she looks really sweet in all the photos. Would be lovely for Clement to get to play with her, though he might pull her hair! ;-) LOL He even tries to pull Benjamin's hair, and he's only got a very little bit!
