Our Baby Turns One!

February 19 marked Little Miss Mya's first birthday and coincidentally the one-year anniversary of the relief of mom's back pain. It was very exciting for her but so sad for Mom and Dad (not sure why though). She celebrated her big day a few days early with a tea party at La Madeleine and seemed to have lots of fun with her friends. Just like me on my first birthday, she didn't really dig into her cake; I guess that "anal-ness" is hereditary. After dinner on her actual birthday, we took her on the carousel (one of my own favorite things to do next to "riding" the escalator). Happy birthday, Baby Doll!

Mya's First Valentine's Day

Mya missed V-Day last year by several days so this is actually her first one. We went to our annual party at Meredith and Caroline's house and she was able to eat all the treats including the bits that fell on the floor. On Valentine morning we were suprised with balloons and candy. Unfortunately, she was scared of the balloons and liked the box more than the chocolate.

Even MORE Snow!

This week we got TWELVE inches of snow! We woke up Thursday morning to two inches of snow and it never stopped until Friday morning (thankfully for Mommy, schools didn't close until Friday). We didn't even having freezing temperatures until the evening hours but a record amount still accumulated. I have gotten to be a pro at building a snowman (or at least directing Daddy). One day I'll teach Mya how to make one, but she'll have to grow out of all that sleeping that she does.
