...A little late. I hadn't gotten any pictures of Miranda on Easter all dressed up and it was so nice out today, so we did a little photo shoot today in her Easter dress. And if you click on one of these you can also see some pictures from our trip to the Dallas Arboretum on Monday.

Puppy Impression

Miranda has been barking like a dog for 3 mths now. (Don't worry I think she will recover:o)) Anyway, thought it was about time I posted a video of it.

Trail of Balloons

After Miranda was done playing with the balloons she crawled away, but they weren't done playing with her. She crawled across the entire living room, but I just caught the very end of it on video.

1 Year Old!!!

Miranda had a fun birthday party on Sunday. We grilled out with some friends. A friend of Dan's from work made the Lucy look alike cake. She did a really great job! And Miranda loved it. She would have kept shoving cake into her mouth if I would have let her. Poor thing decided to put the candle out with her fingers, so she was a little upset at first. But it was nothing a little cake couldn't fix. Dan gave her a little taste and the rest is history. (Click on the picture to see more)

My how you've grown! You are such a blessing and we thank the Lord for you as we remember the day He gave you to us. Just after you were born my heart would burst for you and I kept saying, "She's just so sweet". It's still true. And our hearts still burst for you.

Opening Birthday Mail

Miranda received some gifts in the mail and we had fun opening them up yesterday. She was very serious about the whole ordeal, inspecting everything (click on the photo to view more pics). However, Dan got some laughs out of her with his finger puppet show. He does a pretty good Bullwinkle impression!

Don't they look like they could be brother and sister? This little guy is on his way to Africa in a few months (with his parents of course), so we have to enjoy him while we can (and his parents too).

We had some friends over for a crab feast the other night. Miranda particularly liked the biscuit and the crab exoskeleton.
