Ila's 1st Birthday!!!

Our little lady is 1-year-old now. She is so much fun, the perfect mix of sugar and spice and everything nice. She loves to make us laugh, and loves to be cuddled. That is her sweet sugary side. She can also burst your eardrum with her "red tail hawk" screech if she isn't getting what she wants, that is her spicy side. We had a fun little birthday party for her. It was great to celebrate her first year!

First Steps for Ila

She is not offically walking, but getting close! I know the family needs a little video of Ila anyway, and a little crazy Ari too.

He didn't leave her side when she was making this for him before we moved. He wanted to make sure  he could keep her on task. Poor Grandma, silly boy.

Living Room

Here is our living room. Our sofa bed is out to show you the accommodations you will enjoy when you come visit us, complete with a cute little strawberry to cuddle with.

The Move

We moved to Tigard, Oregon! Mikey got a job in Portland that is going really well. The kiddos and I are having fun exploring our new city. It is going to be hard to be away from family, but I am sure everyone will want to come visit us because it is so beautiful up here. We are excited by all the trees around us and can't wait to visit the coast.

I am so in love with these people.
