It's OK. She's just working on the oven.

You'll notice that these pictures were taken on Christmas Day when we got back home. Shea wasted no time in breaking in the new kitchen. She actually wants to cook in the nude everytime she gets out of the bath. She used to run naked into the living room. Now she heads to cook in her kitchen.

A rare photo of me. Notice the step stool that we swiped from dad's house. I think the kitchen is for ages three and up--or real tall one year olds. The hat is just in case she sets off the sprinkler system while cooking.

At first we thought this would be a good toy for Shea to grow in to. It was for ages three and up. Turns out, she loves it--which means that we we'll be buying more toys in a couple of months.

The next few photos were taken at Debi's sister's house. Since I'm an only child and Debi has only one sister, Shea doesn't have many cousins. I grew up with about 20 cousins--Shea has three. This is little Gregg.

Shea REALLY likes the Teletubbies. Check out the shoes. That would be Tinky Winky on each foot and Laa Laa hanging on her hand.

This would be Taylor.

And the third cousin would be Summer.

If you look close, you can see a big grin on Shea's face. You would think she was showing off her new car.
