Lady in Red

Okay, so I'm not a lady yet, but...can I be a ladybug? My Grandma Perry gave me this awesome outfit that I got to wear when I went to visit her and Grandpa in San Diego. I took a break from playing in their backyard just long enough for Grandma to snap this pic!

Picture of the Day

Just had to share this shot of Carla from last week at Vacation Bible School at Omaha Bible Church. Isn't God wonderful to create such a beautiful little girl! :)

Pictures of the Newest Schmoll

Mommy and Daddy keep telling me that there's a baby in Mommy's tummy and this weekend I got to see some pictures of my new sibling. They say it's a baby but I gotta be honest, it's kind of hard to tell from these pictures though! :) If you want to know whether I am having a brother or sister, you'll have to email Mom or Dad because one of my Grandpas wants to wait and be surprised!

Profile Shot
















Left arm; you can just barely make out all the fingers and thumb.














3D image of hands.














There's the Schmoll nose! When Mommy and Daddy saw this picture, they said it looks like my Uncle Joseph.















Another 3D shot of the face. The cord is in front and makes the picture pretty blurry.

More San Diego Pics

In no particular order, here are pictures of our blue, blue house (yes, next time we will paint a swatch first instead of the entire house). It really stands out because all the other houses in our neighborhood are five shades of beige. Also, there are some more shots from San Diego. One of my favorites is the school of 150 dolphin that we saw on our way to where we scattered Isaac's ashes.






























Nicole and her college mascot, the mighty Triton, King of the Sea.

A Trip to San Diego

My profuse apologies for letting so many weeks go by without new Carla pictures. We have been very busy but having lots of fun visiting family. Carla got to see her Grandma and Grandpa Perry in San Diego over Memorial Day weekend and got a visit from her Uncle Joseph last week. She hadn't seen grandma and grandpa since she was five weeks old so it was a fun trip for everyone. Enjoy!

Mommy and me in front of some boats on Shelter Island.















I thought it would be a good idea to climb inbetween the rescue surfboards because naturally, who do you expect to pull you out of a rip tide but a two year old?














Ahh...fresh ocean air, surfers riding the waves, seagulls and a wet bottom. What else could you ask for from a day at the beach?














I love my grandpa!














And my grandma!














Granpa gave me lots of cool rocks to play with.














I got to see my aunt Aly and her new baby girl, Kendall.














I had a fun time on the boat that we took out to scatter my brother Isaac's ashes. We went to a really special spot where Mommy used to read her Bible, pray and think a lot about how big and good God is. Those cliffs in the background are where she used to sit. I fell asleep for most of the time but I was awake when we said goodbye to Isaac.














Before we got on the boat I got to go for a walk with Grandpa.














Our first night in San Diego we got to eat at Mommy and Daddy's favorite restaraunt, Su Casa, and eat fresh guacamole, prepared right at our table.














This was my first ever in-person view of the ocean. Isn't it pretty!














Just the girls! Here I am with my grandma, Mommy and great aunt Maureen.














I liked looking at the ocean. Here I am just trying to make sense of what I'm seeing.














This is just a shot of what I do most mornings. I like to sit in a comfy chair with a good book and a cup of cool milk.
