18 Months and Counting...

So we went back to Picturesque for our 18-month photos. The pictures ranged from serious to seriously funny, from pretty to pretty silly. Here are just a few...

As in any event involving a "stranger", Mattaya started out very sober. We began by contemplating which shoes to wear...

She very much enjoyed the flowers Miss Aletta had on hand.

Ahhh, those blue eyes!

She pretty much wouldn't stay in any pose Miss Aletta put her in, but Miss Aletta still managed to get some very nice pics.

Oops!

One of Mommy's favorites.

The grizzly pose.

(Actually, she was singing Twinkle, Twinkle.)

The walrus pose...a product of teething.

Laughter

This is her "I'm about to test the waters" face.

Bouncing flowers is such fun!

She just looks WAY too grown up here!

And there's that mischievous "I'm scooting off the chair before your very eyes" look.

She didn't even give Aletta a chance on this one. By the time Aletta got turned around, Mattaya was halfway off the ottoman EVERY TIME.

Oh well...there are other things you can do with a wicker ottoman...

The girl loves shoes in every shape and size...these happen to be a size 6.

Adoring Daddy.

Moment of cooperation.
