Sitting with Santa

Mommy and I went to the mall to meet Santa. I'm not sure why she put me in his lap. I wasn't happy at first.

Party Time

Mayson had a good time playing with her friends
cousins at her parties.

The Big ONE!!!

Mayson turned 1 on Thanksgiving Day...she's a turkey alright. We had a family party Thanksgiving afternoon and some of her friends came over on Friday.

"What is this silly hat on my head?"

"Why is everyone singing to me?"

Checking out the cake

"Ummm, I've never tasted this before!"

"This is messy!"

"Lael and Caeden showed me how to open presents."

Happy Faces of Mayson

I'm a really happy baby, here are some of my happy faces!

Happy Halloween!!

Mommy and Daddy always call me their Monkey, and then for some reason they dressed me up like one!! I'm not sure what's going on but they seem excited to show me off.



Sweet baby girl!

This is my pumpkin

I've got my eye on you

Let's go get some candy!!!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to north Georgia to a pumpkin patch, I had lots of fun walking around and looking at all the pumpkins, I got stuck between two. Some of them were bigger than me. They had all kinds of pumkins....little, big, orange, white....even green.

More Pumpkin Patch

I have four teeth coming in at one time on the top. So I am in a phase of sticking my tongue out.

Into Everything

This is just a small sample of how I'm into everything!

Welcome to my home

Mayson loves to look out the front door and see what is happening in the neighborhood.

Off to work

Mayson thought she would start pulling her weight (literally) and go to work, ha ha! Sam's breifcase for school is bigger than her! She also wants to help unload the dishwasher

1st trip to Michigan

Mayson and I flew up to Michigan so that Sam's family could see her. She had only met her grandparents (Nana and Poppie) and her Aunt Christina and cousin Nathaniel--she was only 3 weeks old the last time they saw her. She got to meet her Great-Grandma and Grandpa Reinbold, her Uncle Brad and many other family members and friends.

Nine months old

Mayson and I went to Marietta Square and took her 9 month pictures.

She really liked the fountain.

2nd Annual Kirk Tuck Memorial Golf Tournament

It was good to catch up with the girls at the golf tournament, as well as, all our guy friends who played to support Kirk's Athletic Award.

Georgia on my mind

At the beginning of August we headed back to our house in Georgia. The moving truck was a big hit with Mayson and cousins Caeden and Lael. It is good to be home, although we had a lot of work, baby proofing and rearranging to do.

Sam's Graduation

Sam graduated from Navigator school at the end of July.

Anderson visit

Mayson's Uncle Todd, Aunt Lisa, and cousins Chace, Caeden and Lael came to visit us. We had a great time even though it rained about 90% of the time they were there.

Swim lesson

Mayson took "swim lessons" on base. We called them "splash lessons" because that's all they had us do, is spash around in the water. She really loves the water though.
