Easter

This year was a lot of fun!  She really enjoyed all her goodies in her basket, especially her new tiny baby doll.  On Saturday we spent the day with the Ericsson's and had a fantastic brunch and celebrated several birthdays.  On Sunday we spent the day with the Lohnes' and all the kids had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa's place!  We had a great lunch, hunted for eggs, and rode horses!  Unfortunately, I forgot my camera but Mila had a blast riding on the horses!!  Both her and Lydia were pretty upset when it was time to be done!  I think Grandma is going to have two more future riding partners!

All dressed up for the Ericsson brunch!



New book!

Ohhhh...new crayons!



Some "pretties"

Someday she will hate me for this...

but I just can't resist!  We are going to start potty training this summer but she has already started asking to use the potty every once in a while.  HOWEVER, she likes to put the potty in the living room and play with her toys while sitting on the potty!

Just a few pics of the Vogel day-to-day happenings over the last month....

Hello my name is Mila and I'm now a terrible two-year-old!

Guess Who's TWO!

Mila is TWO!  We've been busy celebrating the past two weekends and during the week on her actual birthday!  This year was even more fun than the last, as Mila sings her own version of Happy Birthday and even blew out the candle!!  When asked how old she is, she replies with holding up her fingers and saying, "Twoooooo" with the cutest little grin on her face!  It's amazing how much she's changed even over the past six months.  She is a full-blown toddler and the "baby-ness" is gone.  It makes me sad but so excited to see the little lady that is blooming inside her!  She is a little chatter box and is never at a loss for words these days!

Stats:
Height - 34 inches - 75%
Weight - 24 pounds - 25%
Head - 19.5 inches - 95%

On Mila's brithday Jeremy took the day off and we went to the Children's Discovery Museum in Bloomington.  She had so much fun but I forgot my camera!  We will hopefully be going back on a rainy day this summer!

Here are a TON of pics from all of her parties!!

Grandpa's are so much fun...

especially when you have THREE!  Mila adores each of her Grandpas.  It is so cute to see grown men act all soft and cuddly with little ones.  I hope Mila has the opportunity to share special memories with each of her grandpas because they are all very special!

Mommy always said to moisturize!

Mila loves to mimic everything I do these days, which can be both fun and dangerous!  I really have to be aware of what I do and realize these little eyes are watching my every movement!  Last week while I was blow drying my hair she snuck into the cabinet and got out the lotion.  This is what I discovered in a few short minutes:

Random January Pics

I know that I have been very negligent this past month so I have a few pictures to share!  Nothing better than uploading tons of pics while the snow is falling, and falling, and falling!

TOUCHDOWN!

She thought it was funny that she fit in her baby's stroller...fun for her, bad for us!

Our little artist!  She loves painting!

And her boots.  She looks very angry here but she was having a ball walking around (with daddy's help)

And we can't forget our fur babies!  All snuggled up!
