Poor Megan....








On Monday night, January 31, an unfortunate event happened. The only witness to this event is Big Sister Anna, and she ain't talkin! So we'll never know what transpired on that fateful night in the playroom, but we do know how it ended. Megan fractured her forearm in 2 places. It was a long day at the doctor on Tuesday with about 10 grueling xrays. The diagnosis was clear. Luckily the orthopedist got us right in and she was casted within an hour. We chose purple for her cast because it has been deemed her favorite color. Despite the tears preceding the cast, she has been as happy as a bee since getting it on. She hasn't discovered how to crawl with it yet, but is contemplating walking instead. I predict she will be walking within a week. Again, she is a little trooper and it's so sad, but so cute. She finds joy in banging the cast on items to make loud noises. Whatever makes her happy at this point is okay with me! I love her to pieces and am just so sorry she has to go through this. I think she is going to be the closest we get to experiencing life with a boy!

Christmas 2010

Christmas 2010 in pictures:















Megan's 1st Birthday!


Megan is such a delight. She thoroughly enjoyed her 1st birthday celebration with all of her cousins. She had a candy cane themed party complete with candy cane decorated chocolate cake with peppermint icing. The present opening gave her a good warm up for Christmas, although she much prefers eating paper rather than tearing it. She got a laugh and learn kitchen and a few little toys and some clothes. Megan certainly has her own personality, but we are discovering each day just how joyful she is, and that our family wouldn't be complete without her!

Christmas Celebrations Begin

The girls always get a new ornament each year to signify something significant from the year. This year Megan got the word JOY - since it is her middle name and she has brought us so much joy. Anna got a microphone since she started talking this year and singing as well. Erin got Jessie from Toy Story her latest obsession. I bought the family an ornament this summer on vacation since we are now complete. We all have our own beach chair! We always have fun Thanksgiving weekend opening our ornaments and decorating the tree.

Breakfast with Santa





We have traditionally taken the girls to Breakfast with Santa at the Founder's Inn, but this year, CHKD sponsored a breakfast with Santa as a fundraiser. We thought that sounded like the perfect opportunity for us. It was so nice and will definitely be our new tradition. There was a beautiful breakfast buffet, lots of crafts and activities and free pictures with the big guy! The girls had so much fun and we were thankful to get the opportunity to support such a worthy cause!

Fall Fun


One of our favorite things to do in Fall is drive down the Colonial Parkway in Williamsburg. We love this one beautiful, gigantic tree and stopped to take a few pictures !
