Growing Up....

I put all of Michaela's baby toys away today. I tried to read her a book last night and she politley told me - "no for baby"- so I guess it's time! I can't believe how fast time is passing! It's amazing to me that when something doesn't fit anymore, I look at the tag and it's a 2T I need to replace! She is such a fun girl, and can say so many things, she really is a good little buddy. I ask her if she wants to go shopping and she always exclaims - "I DO!"- Horray for best friends! I was organizing our picture folders today so I thought I would share a few favorites. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

A Special Treat for the heart.......... and ears!

Michaela had a Busy day............

And I was busy cleaning up her busy day............!

No Pictures, But Plenty of Live Action

Happy Birthday Mom! (....Grandma)

SO today is my mom's birthday, (she is 29 again.....) And because she lives in Washington, is currently in Wyoming and I am on a tight schedule, she is getting yet another post of pictures! So here you go mom - Happy Birthday!



This is Michaela's First ever Bowling trip. We all wore Hawkeye stuff because it was a school sponsored event. Notice (if you can see it) that Michaela is wearing a ribbon around her waist too.... that is because she is obsessed with wearing belts and that is my temper tamtrum averting because you still get to wear a belt but it's school spirit too, Hawkeye Ribbon Special Belt!!








And I threw this one in because I love the bedhead we get around here! She goes crazy at night! I vote to never be the one to share a bed with Michaela!

Ward Christmas Party

Our ward Christmas Party was AWESOME! I have never seen a gym look so magical - wedding receptions included! They did such a fabulous job, I can't say enough about it!


If there were prizes given - Michaela would have won the "most afraid of the big guy" award!


Clinging to daddy for dear life!


Beautiful Christmas Baby!


This is Michaela's BEST friend! She loves Jackson, she talks about him all the time and always wants him to come over. Good thing his mom is cool too - we see a lot of each other!!!
