This little girl at one is the happiest little girl you could ever want to meet. She always smiles and only cries when she is hungry, wet, tired or cutting teeth. She is really spoiling her parents.
Here is is with uncle Trevor's funny stuffed animal. She is a delight to be around.

Notice this little angelic face? Well don't be deceived. The last time I visited, his little brother H was in the hospital and his parents were there too. I had to change DD's dirty diaper. Just to make sure he did not escape I locked the front door. I found all I needed to make the change except I could not find any wipes. I knew his mother kept extra supplies in the basement so I went down to look for wipes. I had barely made it down the stairs when I heard the basement door close and the lock turned. I was locked in the basement by a 2 1/2 year old. I finally remembered there was a basement door and got out and checked the kitchen door to see if it was open, but no luck. Then I went to the neighbors to see if they had a spare key to the front door. That didn't work either. Finally we had the neighbor boy try to see if he could squeeze through the cat door. that worked and we were able to get in to the house again. It turned out the wipes were in the front room all the time in one of his mother's bags. We accomplished the change after a struggle which I won. Then when his mother called, he proceeded to try to bite me the whole time I was on the phone. He got a really good tickle treatment after that. So don't be fooled by that innocent look.
This blond little "Daredevil" also had a birthday on the same day as Sh. He was 3 years old.

This picture should have been at the end of this blog. But here is Porter going back to Dubai ready for the 13 hour trip. I didn't get one of Natalie and the baby.
Holly came over with her children while C.E.and M were here. We went swimming one day, and another day we went to Frying Pan farm to see the animals and ride the tractors and get fresh produce. Afterward we went to Taco Bell, but on the way out Holly took the corner too tightly and got a cut in the tire. We made it to the nearest service station where they put on the spare tire while we ate our tacos in the back of the garage.
