Happy 2nd Birthday, Miriam!

Miriam's birthday is the Jan 29th but since we're moving 3 days after that I didn't really think I'd feel like throwing a birthday party so close to the move. So we had her party a week early. It was so much fun! Most of her friends were able to make it and we had Sesame Street cupcakes and balloons and ice cream! I was very glad she was able to play with all her friends one last time before we leave. I think she really liked it.









We painted her nails pretty pink the night before her big party. She loves all things girly.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hi everyone. We hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours was this year. Every year it's more and more fun with Miriam. This year she was absolutely marveled by the lights on all the houses. She wanted to get out of the car to "tut it" (touch it). When I tried to get a picture of her in her beautiful Christmas dress... this is what I got (below). She's got more attitude every day, but still has a very tender heart. She's a delight.

We were able to spend the holiday with Jason's family in Glendive. Miriam and Addison finally got some quality cousin time. They loved the dress up stuff from Grammy and Papa. Pretty Princesses!

Miriam and BFF Ali

Miriam was an angel in the church kids' play. I'm gonna try to get the video of it on the blog. It's a lot of her doing nothing set to music. Still cute... at least her mother thinks so!

Counting

Miriam can almost count to ten. Sorry, this video is a month old but she still does it about the same way... she usually starts with two and skips five completely. But we're so proud of her learning new things.

Who's that ladybug on my steps?

Ms Kay, our next door neighbor pretty much filled Miriam's bag on our first stop. And she knows what Miriam REALLY likes... she gave her a bag of grape tomatoes in addition to all the other stuff. The tomatoes were gone long before she started begging to eat the candy. Funny kid.

Miriam has a new birth-sister!

Miriam's birthmom had another baby girl on Oct 20th. Her name is Annalise. Annalise's mom and dad said it was alright for Miriam to hold her all by herself. She LOVED it!! And she was very good with the baby.

Family Picture time!

We finally had a family picture taken! It's been so long. We purchased the copyright so it's perfectly legal for you to download and print any of these pictures.
