Gary took his girls for an ice cream treat last night for Mya's birthday! She didn't like it at all..... ;)

Happy Birthday Mya!

 

Happy 1st Birthday to our sweet little girl!

 

 



This was right after I asked her how big she was...

 

"Soooooo Big!"

 

 

12 Month Run Down:

 

Weight: 20lbs 14oz

Teeth: 6

Likes: Being outside, reading books, turning things on/off open/shut, etc.

Dislikes: Wiping her face, washing her hair, being in her highchair without any food in front of her.

What she's up to: Still walking along furniture and lots of climbing. She loves to go up and down the step that goes into our breezeway and play with the dog's water.  She is also really into turning the pages of books.  She'll sit for 20 minutes just looking and turning the pages. Maybe she's going to be super scholarly. :)

 

One last photo session with Mr. Teddy Bear. Wow, where did the year go??!

Update

Update on my sweet girl's VSD:

We had her one year echocardiogram done yesterday and it looks like one of the holes is still open.  The Doc said there was no change since her last visit. We were hopeful they would be closed by her first birthday, but he said he has seen them close up to about 5 years old, so we're still hoping. As of now there are still no major issues to be concerned about, no surgery needed or anything like that; her heart if functioning great!! They did say her lungs are exceptional!  (see below)

She screamed horribly at every Dr and Nurse around. That's something new for her, usually she hams it up.  (Guess I better get out the baby book and make a note!)  They even had one nurse blowing bubbles and trying to distract her with Dora the Explorer. Stubborn little thing wasn't playing along.....just like her Dad! ;)

So for now we continue to be careful of any bacterial infections or random fevers and wait until her next check....just before her 2nd birthday.

What a day!

What a day, what a day, what a very busy day. We started off by playing a little bit....Mya was in a particularly goofy mood.

Then we got some laundry together...

Then we had to watch the laundry tumble....

Worked up quite the appitite, so lunch was in order...mmmm, beans and strawberries!

After lunch we visited with Great Grandma and Pa Stepien. Grandma has some fun toys!

Then we visited with our bestie cousin J...

....and we played with our old bumbo chair.

 

Wow, what a day! ~ Time for some rest. :)
