Finally, ladies and gentlemen! It's finally here! The page I have been wanting so bad to put up on my page for so long!!! One dedicated solely and solitarily to THE PINKIES!!!

I suppose you're probably wondering why I call her "Pinkies." Well, it's a really cute story. When Jessyka was really young, and I would go to feed her, she'd get this really strong, tight grip on my pinky finger. When my husband and I went to see her for Christmas, and I wanted to try and teach her how to walk, she'd grab my pinky fingers and start walking around with me, and she'd say, "Mamma, Mamma, Mamma, Mamma!" So, that's how she got the nickname of "The Pinkies!" This little girl is my pride and joy. She is now 14 months old, and although I don't get to see as much of her as I would like to, because she lives with her father, she still acknowledges me as her mother, and not anyone else, despite what others may try. The picture up top is one of my favourites of her. A big, happy, chocolatey smile. THAT is what I like to see! Keep coming back, more photos to come! I still have a huge batch of film to get to a developer so I can get them to family and friends, maybe I can get a couple more scanned and put up here. I've got some great ones of her first Christmas! Keep coming back! More to come later! :-)



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~UPDATE~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ok, here's some more, and yes, I have recent ones!!! From 26 June 01!!! Take a look at how fat my baby is!!!! Oh, and by the way, before I forget, there's some on here of her room, well, parts of it, anyways! LOL There's also some more of her first birthday.

Here's one of Jessyka at her best, eating birthday cake from her first birthday! LOL She's such a ham!

Here's one of her wearing an outfit her dad's sister gave her for her birthday.


This is my gorgeous 1 year old eating an Oreo mini. The mess she made of herself made it look like I'd given her a regular sized Oreo! These were taken the day after her birthday. She was born on 7 January, as you can see above, but we couldn't make it out there until the next day to celebrate with her.


Eating a cookie is serious business to her, I guess!


Here is a photo of the presents we gave her. The only one that's not pictured here is the little porcelain figurine I gave her with a gold 1 on the nightgown. I bought it at Meijer, and it is now sitting on the little shelf above my couch. ;-)


Jessi really loves her oreos!!! :-) When my friend scanned this one, she didn't intend for it to turn out like this, but it still looks kewl!


Here's me, trying to feed my daughter. I think she was eating something with yams in it that night. I don't really remember.


Here's another one of me trying to show Jessyka how yummy her food is. Well, if it had yams in it, I can't say I blame her for not wanting to eat it! I don't like yams, either! LOL


Here's one of Jessyka drinking tea.


Here's one of her holding a cheezy poof. Ahhhh...My little Cartman!


Got Chips?


I think someone's been watching Titanic too many times!!!! HA HA


Here is one of the most recent ones I have of her. This was taken on 26 June 2001. She's 19 months old in this photo.


Here's one where she's playing with her hat she got from the Pittsburgh zoo.


"Hmmmm...What's this??"


"Yeah, mom?"


Here's a picture of the top of her crib! Isn't her pillow cute???


Here's a full shot of the crib I bought her just a few weeks before she was born!


Here's a shot of the blanket my Great-Grandma on my mom's side made for her by hand!
