Happy Kid

Amalea is definitely a happy kid. Most of the time she just wants to play and crawl around. Now that she can pull herself up and walk along the couch she does it all the time. We often laugh and wonder where she got all this crazy energy from. Here are a few pictures from the last week of Amalea playing and taking adventures.

My awesome sweater and beanie

A really special friend that Jim works with made some incredible gifts for Amalea before she was born. This wonderful sweater and hat are examples of her amazing skills. Thanks Ang - we love you and hope you are getting better!!!!

On The Move

There she goes!

Spring Break

Jim was in Mexico for Spring Break so Amalea and I took an adventure of our own. We spent the week in Santa Cruz with Pop and Oma (Robin's parents) and got to visit lots of new friends.Pop and Oma are getting a new puppy (she comes home in 3 weeks) so we went to visit the puppy and her 8 siblings!Pop took Amalea out to explore the grass for the first time!
Amalea had so much fun playing with her friends. Abigail, Maizie, Amalea, Rayley (left to right).

How much changes in one year

Every year we go to a "green dinner" that my friends mom puts on. It is a lot of fun to celebrate St. Patty's day with friends and we love eating food that has all been dyed green. This year Amalea got to join the fun!
The first picture is from last year. Everyone is excited for Amalea who is chillin in her mommy's belly. The second picture is from this year. How crazy how so much can change in just one year.
