1 Hair cut

As many of you know-Myla has been sporting a mullet for the last 6-7 months. But this weekend Grandma Jane gave Myla her 1st Hair Cut!!! This was against Lance's wish-but his Mom convinced him it would help her hair to grow fuller and faster. We really only took off a 1/2 inch in the back but it was a big moment for Lance and I, realizing our little one is getting big. Enjoy the photo-montage

Grandma's Marathon

This weekend was Grandma's marathon. Lance, Myla and I all went down to watch the runners on Saturday morning. We cheered on our brave friends Michaela, Ruth, Laura and Cyndi whom all ran the half marathon. Great job girls!!!!!

Then in the afternoon Lance's Mom came in town for a visit. We took Grandma Jane down to canal park to witness the spectacle of the marathon. While down there Myla found a series of fountains to play in. It was the cutest thing to watch her enjoyment as she ran through the water.

Myla's 1st braid!!

a vacation

Last Weekend Myla and I spent time in the Twin Cities while lance was in NY-visiting his Sister. While we were vacationing we visited the Como Zoo with my parents. Myla had a really good time with her 1st Zoo experience, besides being scared of the big Gorillas they housed. As some of you know, I am against Zoos because of the suffering of the animals by the usually poor habitats they live in. But I also realize that is good and important for Myla to experience places like the Zoo. I decided to at least then take the opportunities when we are at Zoos try and teach Myla about the importance of correct habitats for animals in captivity. Although she is to young to understand now my hope is that she will get it more as she grows up.

We also visited with Lance's Brother Brian and his family while in the cities. Myla's cousins Alaina (2 1/2 yrs old) and Chloe will be a year in Aug. You can tell from the pictures that a good time was had by all!

Lance, Elmo and NY

Lance was there Friday till Tuesday. Myla and I spent the time at my Parents house-pics of that adventure will come in the next post. Enjoy the slide show

Grandma Jane sent Myla a gift in the mail yesterday. Myla was very excited to show off her new shoes. She has fallen a couple of times-but still thinks the shoes are fun!! Enjoy the video
