March Madness...or Fun

One afternoon we met the Shields Family at RC Willey to look around. It looks like in this picture that Megan is huge compared to Sarah however that is not true, they are fairly similar in size.

We went to the Lego displays at the fashion place mall and the kids were able to build their own Lego car and race them down the track.

Mike took Tyson to the Gun Show and he used his piggy bank money to buy his own rifle.

Grandma Olson gave these cute bunny clips to the girl cousins. Eliza insisted on wearing these to Costco and we got many comments. 

Tyson learned how to tie his shoes

We love going to Grandma's house on Sunday nights to have a treat and be with each other.

Some of us girls and Grandma enjoyed going to see the new Cinderella movie together.

These girls are just too cute and are always up to something when they are together.

Tyson has had a lot of fun this year in Kindergarten. Here they are on the bus going to Cal-Ranch to see the baby chicks.

 One of Megan's favorite things to do is climb up on the dishwasher and sit and play however she still doesn't realize that you can't get off head first. 

The Rock Show

The Rush's came down and invited us to come to the rock show with them. We looked at so many different kinds of rocks, bought some geodes and almost got eaten by a dinosaur. Fun times with cousins.

Happy St. Patricks Day

These little holidays are kinda fun. It is fun to just do the little things for these holidays. So we all wore green, I made green eggs for the kids, Then sent them on a little shamrock rainbow treasure hunt where at the end of the rainbow they found green rice krispie treats. When Dad got home from work we all sent him on the treasure hunt to find his own treasure. 

Happy Birthday Megan

SPRINKLES...SPRINKLES...SPRINKLES

We celebrated Megan's birthday a few days early so we could invite our families to celebrate Megan turning one year old. I decided  to do a sprinkles theme for her. I made funfetti cupcakes with vanilla frosting and sprinkles on top. I also made sprinkles cookies. We also had vanilla/chocolate ice cream. I also did a gumball guess and had Megs pictures from the last year lined up in a random order and everyone had to guess the right order that they go in. It is a lot harder than you think.

Megan was very spoiled with gifts. She got a laptop, v-tech learning bear, animal sound puzzle, princess wand, minnie fan and ball, bows, music toy, and outfit. She actually opened the gifts a little with a lot of help from cousins. She loved playing with each toy and didn't want to go on to the next one.

I lit the candle and held it out while we sang happy birthday to her. She could not handle it and wanted it right then. 

She dove right in

On her actual birthday we had a chill day (It actually snowed quite a bit) and then that night we went to Cafe Rio for dinner (we invited Grandma Eppich to tag along) and then came home to donuts for dessert. Before we went to cafe rio we let her open the gift we saved so she could open a gift on her birthday. It was a set of musical instruments. The kids all enjoyed fighting over Megs birthday gift.

Happy First Birthday our beautiful Megan!

Megan is One Year Old!

Megan is 19.4 pounds (44th percentile) and 30 inches tall (77th percentile)

She has taken several steps by herself but not quite confident to do more than 4 or 5 at a time.

She got her second bottom tooth this past month. She wears 12 month clothes but quickly growing out of them. She wears a size 4 diaper. She wears a size 3 shoe.

She sleeps through the night going to sleep around 8 and getting up around 7. She takes two naps a day. 

Megan loves food. She loves fruit her favorites being grapes, blueberries, oranges, and bananas, She also loves cheese.  She hates baby food. Whenever I would try and give it to her she would eat a bite or two then spit the rest out and laugh. She likes to feed herself more.

She hates when someone leaves and she is not going. She gets really mad when you take something away from her.

This is what we call her skunk position. She does is ALL the time.

She loves her baths and water. She loves going into the bathroom to find the tub and much to my dismay the toilet. We try really hard to keep the lid shut (however we have learned that she can open the lid now) so we have to make sure the doors are shut (which is sometimes hard when the kids forget). 

She loves to help with the dishes. She loves playing with her siblings, she loves books and just watching what is going on around her. She seems a little lost when her brother and sister are at school. Mom must be boring. She also loves the song "If your happy and you know it" She immediately starts clapping her hands.

We just love seeing her personality bloom and she is so much fun. We love you our little Meggy.
