Meryl and I went to get balloons to celebrate a co-worker’s work anniversary tomorrow. She may have also walked out with some helium for herself. Let’s hope it doesn’t all go to her head:)

 Eighteen months going on eighteen years! Meryl is a year and a half today.

Meryl is insistant that she climb steps like an adult.

This party girl ended up running a temperature and conked out at the breakfast table while we were catching up with Kristi and Erin. For me, I stocked up on alllllll the cuddles. (She’s feeling better today.)

Noelle, and Caleb stopped by for visit! Allison is two months away from baby #3, so we all contributed name suggestions. I’m partial to Ludwila Bedelia, and from the looks of it, everyone surely agrees!

Xanna was more than happy to kick us out of the house.

Frank and Meryl dressed up tonight for their first Father Daughter Dance at the WAC!

Meryl also won the award for ‘Youngest Daughter’ at the dance:)

Frank and Meryl have Nutella toast moments...most mornings. Beats leftover dinner by a landslide. (Meryl and I share a distaste for too many repeated leftovers.)

 Every night we comb Meryl’s hair with Frank’s Dad’s comb.
