Merry Christmas!

Christmas is so much fun now! She was not to sure about the big man in the red suit, but at least she didn't cry :) Mica still does not really get into the whole present thing yet but she is having fun ripping up all the paper and does get excited to see a new toy. Next year she will know exactly what to do. But we are still having fun watching our little girl grow and play with family during the holidays. Merry Christmas everyone!

My new blanket

Don't you just love those cold winter days when you can relax and wrap yourself up in a warm blanket.

Happy Birthday!!!

It's a group effort

Awww dad. . . thanks for the help

I think she likes carrot cake :)

Well we finally made it. Mica turned a year old on the 8th. All day Steve and I just looked at each other and shook our heads - how on earth did we make such a wonderful beautiful baby? She is so full of energy and love. I know this journey we are on is just getting started but I cant say just how excited I am to see how she will grow and change and turn into her own person. Happy Birthday!!!!

So much to be thankful for!

Mmmmmmm turkey leg - Steve smoked a turkey before we left on our holiday trip.

Mica was not willing to smile for the Pier 39 picture :(

Bay area swings are fun too!

Mica had her first Thanks Giving in San Francisco! We went and visited our friends Chris and Kim who are about to have a little one of their own. It was so much fun to share our little girl with all our friends in the Bay area. Mica did not exactly enjoy the hours in the car but she did pretty well considering. Now that she can walk (run) she was frustrated that she could not move and groove all day. She is very happy to be home runnin free - sort of :) She gets mad when I shut all the doors to limit the destruction.

Crazy Hair

Mica's first pony tail! Honestly I think it took me about 10 min to get this thing in her hair. How do other moms do it? Thankfully she left it alone. I had visions of her just pulling it out as soon as I was done. At least we got some crazy/cute photos of it.

Tiggers are wonderful things

This has to be one of the best Halloweens ever! Dressing up the worlds cutest baby is better than a bag full of candy any day :) We didn't go out trick or treating this year . . . ah . . . cuz neither Mica nor mommy need the candy (I cant keep saying "but I just had a baby" since she will be a year old in a few weeks.) But we did go visit the grandparents so they could see her in her costume. The best photo is still to come. Mica and I went and had lunch with daddy who also dressed up for the day as Pooh! They were certainly the talk of the school all day. I am waiting for the photo of them together as soon as I get it I will share it with all of you in Blogland.

Move over Aunt Jemima

I just love baby hats!
