25/365 - The weekend

Sunday was spent just enjoying the day with our friend Knute who was in town visiting. Miss A loves her Uncle Knute and spent most of the day asking him to read stories. Miss M spent the day showing off her new climbing abilities and can now get on the rocking horse without any help!

24/365 - Birthday Party Happenings

Today we had friends over to help celebrate Miss M's first birthday. Everyone seemed to have a good time even though there were a lot of us in a small space! Unfortunately for our friends' son Hank, there were quite a few girls who liked to help "take care" of the babies. Miss A had fun pretending to feed Hank - Hank however did not find it quite so much fun as he didn't seem to understand why there wasn't food on the spoon & why he kept getting held on the ground while they "took care" of him!

23/365 - Photographer in Training

Miss A received a camera for christmas and this past week she has started wanting to take more photos. Today she was asking to take photos of me, so I agreed if she first would allow me to take a photo of her:



And here are a few of Miss M just for fun!

22/365 - A Birthday Wish

Today my baby girl Miss M turn one year old. It's hard to believe that it's already been a year and at the same time I can't believe it's only been a year. I can't imagine my life without her in it! Miss M is her own person in so many ways - I can already tell that she will be one to push the rules and will probably get into her fair share of trouble but will have a lot of fun while doing it.

Today we celebrated her birthday with lemon cupcakes - fitting because before she was born, we called her Lemon. Maya loved every bite of her cupcake and probably would have eaten more if we let her!









Happy Birthday my sweet girl. I wish for you a life full of love & happiness and for this to be only the first of many very happy birthdays that I can share with you.

21/365 - A Brief Thank You

I don't mention it much on here, but I have a wonderful husband. He frequently finds time in his crazy work schedule to help around the house and I just had to mention how much I appreciate the help - especially with the dishes!!!



So, in case I forgot to say it today Los, WOW :) and I really do mean that!

20/365 - Tiny Dancer

Miss A loves to dance. Put on any music and she will start dancing on the spot. Lately she likes to be a ballerina - this is her interpretation:

A few extra

The girls were in great moods today so I was able to get some fabulous photos of both Miss A & Miss M today so I had to share them.

First Miss M:


And of course Miss A's beautiful smile:
