Tara's Birthday was AWESOME!

I just hope that Tara enjoyed her birthday as much as we did!

Now, having Tara visit on her birthday clearly would have been the greatest way to celebrate it.  But, I must say, having SNOW visit was a close second!   (I say that the snow "visited" since it is already mostly gone).

 The snow started last night - big, thick, chunky, beautiful flakes - and when we woke up this morning there was a nice little coating on the ground.

And then, as if the snow wasn't enough, Kiera chose to today to pull herself up to a standing position in her crib, and to really start cruising around (also in her crib).

 And then.  Then!  She even started to make real progress on her forward crawl.

I know, awesome right?  I guess she wanted to show off for Tara's birthday.
