Kids N Dance

Lila Bean, our tiny dancer, has been dancing at Kids N Dance since January. It's a great little school that offers pre-ballet and gym for toddlers. She loves it. Many thanks to Gigi & Poppa for gifting Lila her first dance classes for her birthday! We signed up for another season because it's so much fun. This past Monday was the final dance recital of the season. The kids did three different routines plus a gymnastics session. You can check out out some of Lila's sweet moves below...

Maya is ONE!!!!

Our baby girl turned one on March 25th. It seems impossible that an entire 365 days has passed since the day she was born. I remember everything I was doing on the days leading up to Maya's arrival. I makes me so happy to think about that time. I felt great and we were so excited about becoming a family of four.

Our little Maya, otherwise known as Myers, Miss M's, Punky, or Ladybug, was the easiest infant on the face of the earth. Maybe that's why the time seemed to fly by. There has never been a sleepless night. She never has inconsolable screaming fits. She is patient and observant. It's so fun to sit with her and watch how she entertains herself. She loves typing on the computer, crawling under tables, opening doors and finding gross stuff to put in her mouth. In the last several weeks she has taken her first steps. She is constantly trying to walk right out the front door. She loves being outside in the sunshine.

I can barely remember what it was like before Maya came. Before it was only Eric, Lila and I. We knew something was missing, and then there was Maya. I love you sweet baby sissy. Your smile is so big and toothy. When you laugh, everyone in earshot stops to listen. You love to be tickled and to play peek-a-boo. I love how you lay your head on my shoulder when you are tired and pat my back when giving a hug. Your sister can be mean sometimes but you never let it upset you. Your love for her is unconditional and someday she will be so grateful.

Happy birthday Maya Rae!
