Happy Birthday!

Yum! Actually Shay enjoyed playing with her cake more than eating it!


Present time!



Cousin Taylor helps open some gifts.

Great- grandpa Buzz, Brett and Shay

Thanks Dad- for some real food :)

We were able to celebrate Shay's birthday this past weekend, by having 2 parties! Since so many family members were able to visit and celebrate with us, we had a morning and an afternoon party. So for Shay- that meant 2 cakes! Lucky girl.

Small Smiles

We are just loving Shay's smiles, even if they are at 6:15 on a Saturday morning.

2 Favs: Playing Cards and "Walking"

I can't wait for summer!

It is going to be a fun summer --- especially in the water! Shay is getting ready by testing out mom's new ski and shopping for a cool swimsuit. We are heading to Florida in March as a family, so hopefully we can get a taste of the sun and warm weather in about a month!

11 Months Already!

Daycare Fun

Shay is still going to Tracie's house 4 times a week, although she is playing at home with Dad today to celebrate President's Day. According to Tracie and Shay's daily journal, she has made a number of friends, but her 2 favorites are the new baby and the little guy that is only 6 months older.

Just hanging around the house

Here are some random pictures from the last couple of weeks. Not a whole lot is new in our house. Shay is still having a blast with her walker and getting closer to standing/walking on her own. Bailey is slowly warming up to Shay's new ability to move, and Brett and I spend a fair amount of time just watching them and smiling.
