The sunshine has returned again to Denver with a crystal clear blue 70 degree day today. Myla and her dad got a lot of yard work done and also took some time to break in her new swing from Easter. She really likes it a lot and its even more fun when the dog runs around for her to see. Myla also had her last - for the year and her life! - synagis shot this morning - weighing in at 17 pounds 4 ounces. Which is odd, because at her 18 month appointment just over a week ago, she was 17 pounds 9 ounces. So we've decided that she's 17 pounds and a half. Seems like a good compromise. But now we don't have a monthly weigh in until she's two! Oh, John says we'll use the house scale. She'll be facing forward in the car in no time!
Myla is so smart, every day she learns something new, which I guess isn't a big deal because all babies do it. But it amazes us. She can tell you where her mouth, eyes, nose, ears - and today she learned head - is. She loves to come sit with you on the floor and sprawl out or sit just like you are sitting. And if you can catch her mid-stride she will even walk holding on to only one of your hands, but she prefers two hands because she can go faster. Her favorite place to go walking is outside and look at all the flower buds popping up. We are doing pretty good around here, just enjoying the sunshine and our little girl. Even after the worst day, her smile perks us up. John's job is good - stressful with the reorganization but good. We're just living life and thankful for all we have. Isn't that the way it should be?

Exactly ;) I'm glad your weather warmed back up, hopefully no more feet of snow this year, eh?
Guess what? We got a doggie ;) His name is Hermon, he is adorable and great with the kids. Will post soon. Hound mix. :) :) :) :)
I actually meant Herman, but that's only the millionth time I've misspelled it, oh well ;)
