that finger...

Violet's "comfort" thing is to suck on her finger. Just the index finger, not two at the same time, but just one. She usually turns her hand upside down and knaws on it until its soaking wet. If you look at the pic in an earlier post of her standing up in the pink outfit for the first time, she's doing it there. Its seems like a phase though...she'll do it a lot in a day, then stop for a day. She got to go on her first snow sled ride the other day. Dave and I walked down to the mailbox and back and she sat in the sled behind us the whole time. I'm not sure if she loved it or not, but it was an activity to get outside and see a change of scenery for once. The winter blues are getting to us! I hope we have fun outside this summer. She'll get to run around and discover all sorts of things! Oh.....we had her 1 year pics taken at JCPenney on Monday the 15th. I know, 5 days early, but I figure she'd look pretty much the same 5 days later! I wanted to get it out of the way and done with! She did so good. She kept wanting to stick her finger in her mouth every time the photographer would make her smile and jump back in time to snap the shot. We got some great ones! We ended up choosing the pictures that reminded us most of Violet's personality. We picked one of her standing up on her own with jeans and her white shirt (which has an adorable little "smirky" smile), a pic of her sitting on a white stool with her "crazy evil grin" and her favorite purple stuffed bear, and a very reflective and curious Violet pinching the #1 on a birthday cake with a pink background. She's not looking at the camera, she's instead looking very intently at the #1 on the cake with her little lips pursed in concentration.
