Mommy's First Mother's Day

Mother's Day was great! Kris and Mia got up and fixed breakfast for me. They got me some flip flops and a bracelet to remember my first mother's day. We spent the afternoon at Aunt Janae's house and then came home to have a web cam session with Gramma and Grandpa.

I bought Mia the cutest headband that has pigtails attached. The first picture is Mommy and Mia at church on Mother's Day but you can't see the pigtails real well so the second picture is Mia with Aunt Janae, who also celebrated her first Mother's Day.

Mia's First Easter

Ok...I know I have been slacking again on the posts. But I have been waiting for the Easter pictures. And now they are here. So post on...

Our Easter was very good. On Saturday, we went to CALM, a little zoo here in Bakersfield, and had a picnic lunch with some family. Then we walked around and let Mia check out all the animals. She wasn't so fond of the horse. I think it was too big for her. She did like feeding the sheep with Daddy tho!







Sunday we went to church and then had lunch at Grammy and Papa's house. GG came to eat with us and play with Mia and Josiah. It was a good day but Mia was very very tired after a day with no nap!!



Mia just loves her cousin, Josiah. She takes such good care of him!

Mia's First Beach Trip

We took a long weekend and went to the beach for Kris' and my birthdays the first weekend in April. We stayed at Aunt Rosie's beach house in Cambria. It was pretty windy the whole time we were there but its so beautiful there that it didn't really matter! Grandpa and Grandma Olson missed us so much that they flew out for the weekend to visit with us. We had such a good time with them. We went on a walk out on the cliffs in Cambria, walked downtown Pismo, and had a delicious dinner at Cracked Crab. Of course, Mia had a good time discovering new things. She loved putting her toes in the sand!

First Attempt at Eating

Mia has started salivating when we eat dinner. I thought maybe it was time to start her on some rice cereal. As it turns out, I was wrong! She didn't quite know what to do with it yet. The little that made it in her mouth, came right back out! Maybe I'll wait a bit longer!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Holidays are so much more fun when a little one is involved! St. Patrick's Day was never exciting to me till Mia arrived! We had fun at Grammy's house taking pictures of our little lepruchan!!

I Love You This Much

Kris has been coming home from work every night and telling Mia "Daddy loves you thhiiiissss much" and he'll spread his arms wide. Well, she woke up from a nap and knew how to do it! I caught it on video so he would believe me that she did it back!

Wow Time Flies

So I realized that I'm not a very good blogger! I can't seem to keep up! And I can't believe its been over a month since the last post! And so much has happened in the past month! I'll try to keep up a little better!!!!
