Catching Up

We've been a little out of touch. But, we're making it sooooo worth your while with the official unveiling of The Meyer Family Blog! Complete with a web address that won't have Anna in therapy for 40 years. You can still check out older posts on our original blog.



It's still winter here. We got a glimpse of 50-degrees a few weeks ago and broke out the strollers. I took the girls to a park (we've still been going in the snow, but since it was so nice we went to one further away -- with baby swings). I didn't really think the trip through, though. Two feet of snow, warm day...well things were pretty smooshy. Who are we to complain -- we'll take smoosh over freezing any day!
Anna took in her first Badger basketball game.
Claire got to talk with her good buddy Bucky again. P.S. - Claire highly recommends the Bucky's Buddies page to all of her buddies. Loads of fun games and important Badger training.
Anna has teeth! Two on the bottom sprouted through mid-month, and now a third is making a slow, painful entrance on top.

Claire is such a sweet big sister to Anna. It's amazing how they both light up around each other. On the rare occasion that Claire is not home, Anna clearly searches for her. They have this crazy silly laugh that they reserve for each other. Ahhh...I am going to hold onto this moment! It makes the torture that is potty training much more tolerable!
Cousin Brynna turned 1 in January. Check out this fantastic cake! I'm going to have to up my game for Anna's B-day. Plain chocolate cupcakes won't work.
The birthday girl!


The Allen Family paid us a visit on their cross-country marathon. It was so great to see all of them and welcome Nate back from his 2nd 12-month deployment in 3 years.


Anna figured out how to give herself a bottle. Claire is still getting messy.
Claire tried ice skating this weekend! Grandma and Grandpa Meyer gave her a Strawberry Shortcake DVD in which "ice dancing" is heavily featured. One lap after clutching the walker and begging me to "hold on tighter" she asked when she could start ice dancing. We need a few more laps before we're ready to give up the walker!
