Happy Birthday Eva Marie!

Eva turns one today. It makes me happy that she is growing up to be such a beautiful, bright little angel.



Things we love about Eva:

• She perhaps has the world's best smile
• The way she licks her lips while feeling her teeth (what are those fascinating things?)
• When she runs to you when you pick her up from school
• Her fiercly independant streak (Humm... does she get that from mama?)
• Clacking her tongue
• What a good eater she is. Favorites are garlic hummus, avacado, peas, spagetti with meat sauce, any type of cheese, and of course Cheerios.
• How she loves to cuddle
• Instead of sucking her thumb she uses two fingers
• How we have no idea what color eyes she actually has
• She flirts with boys already. Especially her boyfriend, Luke.

Everyday we have with her is a blessing. Happy Birthday Eva Marie!

You know you're addicted to your Blackberry when...

Eva's new favorite toy... And she has unlocked it. Sorry for any inadvertent calls from Eva.

Winter at the cabin

Yummy - cold snow.

Eva and dada recently went up to the cabin for a mini winter break. Eva got to eat snow, lick the frozen lake, go sledding and spend some quality time with dada. She is a little timid with the snow at first but after a few minutes Eva thinks its real fun. Eva even got to spend lots of time with Grandma Kathy and Cousin Ava.

See Eva - there's nothing to be afraid of. Cousin Ava demonstrates her skills.

OK - now Eva will give it a try.
