Professional Pictures

These pictures were taken on the 17th of October 2006.

As you can see the latest professional pictures of Fiona have been uploaded. Amazing that an 11-mo-old could wait over an hour in the studio to get her picture taken and not fuss or get dirty. She is quite the gregarious child and makes new friends wherever she goes. She waves, she smiles, she barks, she drools and occasionally graces her adoring public with the word “Dada.” Look how long her hair has grown! Being a girly girl she enjoys brushing it. Plus her brush makes an excellent instrument when playing Cat Proctologist! Fiona has developed quite a sense of humor. One of her favorite jokes, when riding in her car seat, is to call out the word “Poof!” After arriving at their point of destination, Mama smells Fiona and says, “There’s no poop!” Then Fiona laughs and laughs. Another favorite joke is to say “Uh Oh!” and throw any item on the floor. She also has fun trying to lift Mama’s shirt and say “Boof! Boof!” Another exciting activity is to chase the dog and cat. She especially finds it hysterical to throw toys at the dog’s legs to make him jump and to offer Petey cheese crackers and then eat them herself. She has fun dumping the water from Whylee’s water dish onto the floor or onto the cat. Then the dish can be worn as a yarmulke. Mama sings, ‘Put on your yarmulke. Here comes Hanukah!’ and Fiona holds a pink bowl on her head and dances. Aside from antagonizing the animals, her favorite activities include eating, reading her books, playing with toys and odd items from around the house, playing music, listening to music, singing, dancing, and taking a “bubble baff.” Fiona has also increased her vocabulary. “Poof” has evolved into “Poop,” her second favorite word (The first still being “Dada.”) She calls herself “Nuh nuh.” She has mastered the word “Eye” as she pokes her finger into your eye. Fiona has also picked up some sign language – milk, eat and baby. Ever the helpful child, Fiona enjoys picking up the living room by taking all her books off the bookshelf and putting them in her toy box. She helps by turning the TV on and off and hiding the remote control. When Dada is in the kitchen cooking, Fiona also cooks with her own pot and wooden spoon. She helps Mama by micro managing as Mama is making her breakfast bottle. Fiona is the most helpful when sharing Mama and Dada’s food. When well fed and rested, Fiona is a bright, happy and loving child. She gives her Mama lots of hugs and body slams. She loves to be kissed and tickled. Dada is the only one who can coax one of her kisses. She loves on her stuffed puppy by rubbing her head all over him. She rubs her head on Petey and gives him lots of pats. She pets Whylee and tries to rub her head on him to show affection. Of course, the cat is not as forgiving as the dog and often walks away with his tail in the air leaving Fiona with a face full of fuzzy cat butt. Halloween was an exciting time for Fiona. She decided to dress as a monkey this year and went to the LDS ward for ‘trunk or treat.’ She got to see lots of babies dressed up in costumes, eat some candy, feed a Chihuahua (dressed as a bumble bee) cheese crackers, and taste some home made root beer. Lastly, she got to stay up an hour past bedtime to help Dada answer the door and give out candy. She really liked the candy and the Chihuahua. That’s all from Fabulous Fiona land.
