Christmas and Birthday! Mya turns ONE!

SO we spent Christmas in CT, Mya getting to know her two cousins Jake and Leah. Grandma, whom we call Da, cooked us delicious homemade meals all week.  Jake, who is 9, loved playing with Mya  a lot.  He was very entertaining, playing peekaboo behind the curtains and making all kinds of funny faces at her that made her laugh.
It was great for her aunt Laura and Uncle Dan to finally meet her too!

Another Da made sweater!  She is SO talented!



Mya's birthday was pretty mellow, just a family affair.  Da bought a cake that did not contain soy or dairy and I whipped up some frosting for it.  As you can see from the pictures Mya wasn't so sure about the whole candle thing, but she did enjoy eating the cake!  When she was done it was to the sink to wash away all the left over sugar on her face and in her hair.

YUM, CAKE and ICECREAM!

Clean Mya.

 

 She loved the sink bathtub!


We  had some wonderful vistors, Amanda, Frankel, and Conor came up for the night along with Angela.  Conor had a ton of fun playing with Harry, the dog, however, he was not so happy about spending the night away from his crib and toys...  Poor Amanda and Frank had to spend an hour getting him to finally fall asleep in the big bed with them.  We then snuck Amanda out for a drink at one of the local bars.  Thanks Frank. (More pictures to come.)

We also made a quick visit to MA to see Grammie.  Although it was a quick visit it was great to see her.  Mya is wearing the sweater Grammie made her.  She has two knitting grandmas!
