Happy Leap Day!

And if You Can't Leap...

...Why not enjoy a little good dirt?

Happy 1st LaLavia!

We celebrated our "diminutive diva"'s big day in a big way with friends and cake. The weather cooperated, giving us sun and a snow-free yard on which to play for a bit. (Today it's blanketed in white again, so we planned right!) Olivia did well with all the action and people, and scarfed down quite a bit of her vanilla cake with pink whipping cream frosting. Thanks to all who came to help party!

On the Mend

Thankfully, we are on the mend! Still coughing in 3 of 4 corners, but no more fevers.

And we're well enough to Ride and Mug and Play and Love:

1. Zach enjoyed a morning on his first real bike - see him riding off into the Wild Blue Yonder. It was a beautiful CO day, 50 degrees and sunny, though a bit windy.
2. Olivia mugged for the camera at breakfast. Yep, that's her camera-ready grin.
3. I helped a friend organize a blog to display and sell her jewelry (LuQuDesignsJewelry.blogspot.com) and got to attend her trunk show happy hour last night - yummy cranberry champagne cocktails!
4. Poor Scott is getting ready for a work trip to Phoenix and spent ALL day on the computer. No fun. We'll have to get him outside for at least a walk tomorrow.

I think Scott and I are both ready to crash for the night, so I'll sign off with a few ideas for future posts:
* Yes,...But...
* My son, and Scott's son
* Olivia's nicknames
* OMg, Olivia is almost ONE!
* (Hopefully some day I can post some catch-ups, including: Monthly summaries for the fam and for the kids)
