She fell over!
While posing for pictures with her cousins Leta kept falling over backwards. And, of course, instead of running to her rescue I just stood there and took pictures.

Haha! I am the FIRST ONE to leave a comment.
OK, I don't really have anything to say. Shame...

Oh, I've been patiently (tappity, tap, tap) waiting for more pics!
Sooo cute!
Of course, there's nothing funny about a poor froggy on its back, screaming, "Help, I've fallen, and I can't get up!"
Okay, stupid joke, yes, but it's MONDAY people, give me a break!
God bless,

Thank you so much....I've had a bad morning at the office and had a quick minute to check here, and chuckled out loud....quite loud. Thank you for sharing.
My little guy kept walking out of his shoe, I was so frustrated. I kept telling my hubby, "He HAS to wear shoes!" Finally we just put a different pair of shoes on...they stayed on just fine.

Bwah! Poor frog baby! But, also, funny. I love the look on her face. Like "WHAT THE HELL!?!"

Oops! Leta Went Boom :(

Poor Leta, more of a tadpole than a frog I guess!
11.01.04 - 07:39 AM / 13Kelly said:
LMAO That is a beautiful photo! One I'm sure she'll appreciate in a few years. ;-)
Yes, I'm the same type of mother...we have oodles of photos of my son crying. My husband just thinks it's cruel. I personally think it's hilarious.

Aw, poor thing. She looks so cute though, you gotta post more pics of her in that outfit!

I laughed this morning when the baby whacked herself in the head with a rattle. You are not alone.

At least she's got her socks on!!
Right?

.....and then the beautiful princess found an orphaned baby frog in the woods....

seems we share the same motherly instinct! Here's to the many bandaids our children will go through over the years!

Ha -- too cute. I'm so with you, though. The first time our daughter had a tantrum (and by that I mean she lay screaming on the floor and kicked her feet), we laughed and took pictures. Yeah, CPS should be coming any day now to collect our kids.

Ha I am #28! A record for me! No #1 here I come!!
People, this, and excuse me for bringing football into this, Heather's comments page is becoming like the AP college football poll.
Baby, yes of course, is totally cute. Maybe I will make my wife happy some day and agree to have one.

Is she walking now?
11.01.04 - 08:05 AM / 24Diana said:
She is so adorable.
At least she's wearing socks. :)

she looks like the turtle princess!
how do you not bite her feet like every 12 seconds?

That just reminds me of the part in "A Christmas Story" when Ralphie's brother falls down in that huge snow suit, and he's rolling around and can't get up!

Poor frog baby - we put a witch's hat on the baby (4 months old now) last night and took pictures while he screamed.....I'm so with you Heather.....wait till you have a 2nd child - they get treated even more poorly! ROFL!

Add an extra element of humor to the falling down by putting a bit too much powder in the diaper. Once she's actually bipedal it'll be hilarious every time she does the sit-fall thing and poofs of baby powder billow out.
