Best New Year's Eve Party Ever

Christmas, 2010

For Christmas, two little 8 month olds hired the Big Yellow Taxi to take them to the beach.

They're so cute, lots of people volunteered to go along and push.

Mama pushed. Grandma & Grandpa Bauer made the trip.

Papa pushed the taxi through the softest sand. He thought the beach was a great Christmas outing. Wonder why no one else had the same idea?

Then we took the babies home to learn the secrets of present unwrapping.

Mariella took to it right away. Anneka was content to let Mariella do the work.

Milk Monkeys Pose for Fashion Shoot

In my (fertile) imagination, the fashion photographer from the formula company showed up today for a photo shoot of the cutest spokes-babies in the world:

 

OK, girls, turn it on...

Work it, babies, work it!

Got milk?

Whoa!

Hmmm, what designer is she wearing? Oops, she's looking this way...

... "Baby, that thing you have on is so last month!"

Shoot's over. Get us out of here, Daddy-O.

Christmas with Nanny Annie

Nannie Annie brought us Christmas early!!!

With three girls in the picture, you're unlikely to get them looking the same direction. Even if you do, one of them's sure to say, "Don't use that one. I look fat in it."

All this green paper just for us? You shouldn't have!
Mama never lets us eat this much!

Oooo! A book, too!
Can I just have a nibble of the green paper while I read it?

California's Central Coast

Have I mentioned lately that we live in the most beautiful place in the world?

Fall, Winter, & Spring are our best seasons.
