Silly Monkey

Niya thinks this monkey is HILARIOUS! We only managed to catch a small part of the squealing and laughing!!! :)

Trip To The Beach

We spent Thanksgiving weekend at the coast. We were lucky Saturday to have really great weather so we decided to take Niya to the beach for the first time. We walked down with Gramma, Papa, and Niya's cousins Hailey, Brayden, and Riley.

A Little Thanksgiving Drumming (No Drumsticks)!

At Thanksgiving, Papa gave Niya her first African drumming lesson. Which went pretty well until she decided that she wanted to taste the drum! :)

Peeking Out!

We just put these new breathable mesh bumpers on Niya's crib to keep her from getting tangled up all the time (she just loves to stick body parts through the bars). But there are still 4 openings in the corners... so I wasn't all that surprised when this is what I find when I go in to get her from her afternoon nap!

Silly Baby!

Hair

I always said I wanted a baby with "Duck fluff" hair. I guess you have to watch what you wish for!! Here is Niya's current hair style...

Notice the few wispy extra long pieces, that is her very own variation on the usual all one length duck fluff style. Most of her hair is about 1/2 an inch long but these long ones are about 3 inches or more... they just float around for extra effect! :D

Of course all of this is only on the top in sort of a mohawk all down the middle.

Ta Da!

That's our girl... one unique individual... with all her own style!
