Cooling off in the sink

Mia and Debbie were having fun sitting the sink and learning to drink from the faucet. Daddy didn't even have to teach her the easiest way to get a drink.

Daddy and Mia ride in coach

Debbie (Mommy) went on a business trip and flew on the corporate jet. Daddy and Mia had the opportunity to see the jet land and Mommy get off it with a few others from work. The pilot even let us go on the plane and check it out - pretty amazing. Mia liked all the green, blue and red buttons in the pilot's chair. We made she she didn't push any though.

Mia also liked the suckers that were in the hangar and enjoyed one on the way home.

Who's coming for Easter?

Grandma's Visit

Grandma came out from Michigan to see the three of us and spend some quality time with Mia. It was a short trip, however we covered a lot of ground including a visit to the train park (thanks Jamie for the great find), shopping for shoes (Leah and Mia's favorite thing to do), playing with bubbles in the back yard, swimming lessons, dinner with Susan and Bill (it's always great to see them), and we even went swimming (Debbie and Leah included). Daddy warmed up the pool to a brisk 90 F so that Debbie and Leah would join Mia and him.

Here are some pictures from the exciting weekend!

Mia dancing to some tunes while brushing her teeth. Mia's Aunt's and Uncle will be proud that she's a good tooth brusher.

Mia's second photo shoot

We hired a photographer (Eric Merkow, www.merkowphotography.com) to take Mia's 1-year pictures and here are few shots from that photo shoot. The pictures turnout awesome!

Weekend with Marty and Angie

Marty and Angie came out to visit us over the past weekend. What a great time we had from the Fountain Hills Art Fair, Spa for the girls while Marty and I played 36 holes of golf, to family and friends over for dinner and going out in Scottsdale. What a weekend, and there was good quality time with Mia by her Uncle Marty and Aunt Angie.
