One year old Megan

Megan had her 12 month appointment today. She is 19.29 pounds (17%), 28.35 inches (18%) and has a head circumference of 17.72 inches (44%). It was again a very traumatic experience, with the shots, and they had to draw blood. But, she took it like a champ. I can't wait until we get all of these shots out of the way.
But more importantly, as of Sunday, Megan can walk!!! Crawling is still her main mode of locomotion, but she does a little more walking each day. I am so excited. We managed to catch a little of it on camera. Sorry that it is sideways. Our normal video camera is broken, so this will have to do.

Russ will have to watch out for his hygiene. I gave him a haircut last night, and Megan was terrified the entire time. It is very hard to cut hair with a screaming toddler hugging your knees for dear life. Russ said that people liked his haircut. I hope that they were sincere, as it was not the best of circumstances to be working under.

Daffodil Hill

We heard about this place from our friends the Shorters, so we decided to come check it out. It is a hillside that has a ton of daffodils. It was amazing. We also got to drive through some awesome cities in Mid-Connecticut. They were so pretty.

Happy Birthday, Megan!

Yea for cake. I think that this was Megan's favorite part.
Oooooo, presents
The winner (Hands Down!!)
A shot with all of her pictures. It is her at one month, three months, six months and nine months. We will soon have one up of her at 12 months.
Eating cake again.

We had a great day. Russ took a day off and we spent time together. Russ had a hard time letting go of Megan as a baby. It was really cute. We got a lot of nice things and had a great time eating cake, as you can see. We are so lucky to have Megan with us. We really have been blessed.

Beach Time

We went to Lighthouse Point and Beach yesterday. We can hardly wait until summer!!

Mad that mom won't let her eat a rock.

Megan really seemed to enjoy playing in the sand. I hope that she will like to play in the ocean, but since the water is always cold, I am not sure that this will happen. But, there is a splash park there, so it will be fun regardless. Yea for living on coast!

I think I'll go for a walk outside...

Megan and I went outside to play today. The weather was very nice and we had a great time.
Inspecting the playground and the pacifiers left by the daycare. Oh dear.
Discovering dirt.

We would have had a lot more pictures, but the batteries decided to give out. Typical. Stay tuned.

Utah Spring Break: Easter

For Easter, we went up to my grandmother's house. We later had lunch while we were joined by some of my extended family. It then turned into a wild party! Actually, we had a great time taking pictures and being silly.
