Dance Video

I couldn't figure out how to edit this video, so it is kind of long. The good part is at the beginning. Natalie was really putting on a show! She loves her Gabba!

Scott Family Christmas

Here are a few pictures from our together at Ryan's parents and going to the nursing home and celebrating Christmas. We had a lot of fun! There will be more pictures to come. I can't wait to post the picture from Ryan's grandma Peterson's house. You won't believe how many people we fit in that picture. :)

Favorite Things

Juliana got some special crayons that can write on windows. Juli and Natalie tried them out Christmas morning. I hope they wash off :) The had a lot of fun, lets hope Natalie doesn't think you can write on the windows with all markers or crayons.

Natalie got a kitchen from Santa. She loved cooking! Come by and she will make you some wonderful treats.

Natalie's second favorite present was from Corinne. She got all 5 Yo Gabba Gabba figurines. She wants to take them everywhere. She talks to them and sings songs with them. She even wakes up from her nap talking about them.

Bernardi Family Christmas

I was very excited this year it worked out that we could go to my aunt Fran's for Christmas dinner. We had a wonderful time seeing all my cousins.

Some of Natalie's cousins on the Bernardi side. Luke, Max, Natalie, Juliana, Gianni, and Dominic.

Christmas with Holden and Corinne

Sorry I didn't take many pictures but here is my favorite of the ones I took. We had a great time with Kara, Corinne, Katie and Holden. Katie gave Corinne and Natalie matching hats. Aren't they cute. I wish Natalie would stop moving long enough to get a good picture. What a mess we made!

Pumpkin Patch rewind

I have been a very bad blogger and never posted our pumpkin patch pictures. We had a lot of fun at Radder Farm. There were tons of pumpkins and some fun sand boxes filled with corn and beans. We also saw some animals and shared a yummy pumpkin doughnut.

Topless Tutu

Natalie loves wearing her pretty skirts. She has a bunch of dress-up clothes, but she always wants to wear this skirt. The other night she put it on before her bath. At one point she pulled it up under her arms. Ryan said it looked like baby lingerie. I didn't get a picture of that. You have to be very fast to catch her.

Fall photo shoot

One of my friend's mothers who loves photography took some fall pictures of Natalie. These are just a few of my favorite. I loved them all. She really captured Natalie's personality. The only problem was Nat was getting a cold and had little bumps around her mouth, but she still was beautiful to me! Thanks Gloria!

Halloween '09

We had a fun Halloween! Natalie was the cutest puppy I have ever seen. We visited our cousins Don and Joan and ate our first few pieces of candy. Natalie loves candy! Then we went to my mom's and ate at McDonalds with her. It was fun to bring our little puppy to McDonalds. We ended our night at Ryan's parents where we had fun handing out candy to all the trick-or-treaters. I can't wait for next year when we will go trick-or-treating!

Chocolate Pudding

My mom thought it would be a good idea to let Natalie paint with chocolate pudding. She even bought us some to try. I put it on Natalie's tray to see what she would do. At first she wasn't sure but once she tasted it she loved it. I love Ryan feeding it to her on the video. Especially because he was the one telling me not to do it because it would be too messy.

Coloring

This weekend we colored for the first time with out eating the crayons. Saturday I gave her some fat crayons that my mom gave me and she loved it. She also loved coloring her highchair tray. Magic erasers take crayon off of anything :) Then today I got her some of the markers that can only draw on the special paper. She loved it. It did take her a while to figure out that you can't color unless the cap is off. She loved scribbling all over "mouse" that is Mickey. She made some beautiful scribble pictures.

Summer is over

I can't believe summer is over. I have been so busy starting school. And to make matters worse I was in a car accident the night before kids started school. I have been without a car since Aug. 18th. We are all okay, it was just me in the car. Well on a happier note here are some fun pictures from the end of the summer.

The princess has a new throne.

Ryan bought Natalie her first car!

Natalie loves her puppy Zoe. And Zoe tolerates her very well.

Natalie's hair is kind of long enough for pig tails :)

Playroom

I finally found some of the wall stickers for Natalie's playroom. I think they turned out cute. There are butterfly's all around the room. Then there are little flowers and bugs at the bottom of the wall.

Summer Fun!

Juliana's 5th birthday party!
We went to Juliana's part last Saturday it was a lot of fun! Natalie really loved playing in the water. Happy Birthday Juliana!

Fun at the Fair. We had a great time seeing all the animals at the fair. Natalie would say moo to all the animals. She loved seeing her cousins Andy's pigs. She also got to pet some pigs and bunnies. She did say quack quack to the ducks.

Today we went to the park with Marcy, Aidan, Kara and Corinne. We had a great time. We went to Avanti's for lunch after. They were a little slow!

2 more pictures

I had to post 2 more pictures. I love this picture with Natalie and her grandpa, who she calls Papa.

Here is Natalie's cute dress. She loved wearing this dress. When we first put it on her she held up the sides and said "Pretty Pretty" Don't I have the cutest baby ever.

Great Grandpa Peterson

Thursday Ryan's grandfather Erv Peterson passed away. We will really miss grandpa! We are lucky that we just had a wonderful vacation with him and the rest of the family in June. This is one of my favorite pictures of Natalie and her great-grandpa. She just went running to him this day. He was so excited to see her every time we visited.

Here is Natalie with all her cousins, from youngest to oldest. Natalie, Ethan, Collin, Andy, Hannah, Sydney, Zach and Alli. Natalie loved getting the time to play with all of her cousins over the past few weeks. She will really miss them.

Natalie and the boys!

Just the girls!

Happy Anniversary

Today is our 5 year anniversary. I can't believe we have been married 5 years. This is one of the only wedding pictures I still have on the computer, so it is the only one I could post. It has been a great 5 years. Thanks Ryan!

More Branson

Here are a few more pictures from the Butterfly Palace.

Here is Natalie playing at the water park.

Butterflies

Here is Natalie at the Butterfly Palace. She loves butterflies. I need to get her on video saying butterflies because she says "butflies." It is too funny :)

More Branson Pictures

Here is a picture of the house we stayed in. It was beautiful! We were taking family pictures in our shirts infront of the house. I will have to get a copy of the group picture to post. I didn't get one on my camera.

Ryan and Natalie in their shirts.

Here are just a few pictures I took around the house. Sorry Katie I didn't get many pictures. I need you with me to be my photographer.

Wendy put together a fun scavenger hunt. We worked in teams to answer clues and puzzles. We got the shirts during the scavenger hunt. Wendy had the shirts made. They are really cute and have the number order of when you entered the family. Natalie was number 20, Ryan was 8 and I was 19 :)
