You can enjoy four seasons, teach your daughter to write her name, move a few times, sell a house, buy a house, take a new job and
celebrate your son's first year of life!

I can hardly believe our tiny baby is already a year old but at the same time marvel at all that has taken place in our lives in that amount of time. Lydia was thrown for a bit of a loop asking the morning of the party if "Lucy, Clark and Owen are coming to the party?". I had to remind her that Prague is very far away so they wouldn't be able to come. She had also convinced herself that Nina (her Prague babysitter) was making the trip as well... going so far as to "call her" the week leading up to the party on her toy cell phone to ask what kind of cake Nina wanted (Monkey Cake was the answer). Then she informed me that Nina was packing her suitcases and flying on a green plane to Wisconsin. Can you tell that she misses her Prague friends very much?
We had a wonderful birthday celebration with 10 of our dearest family members making the trip to Wisconsin to sing "Happy Birthday" to dear Marcus. It was such a treat to be able to enjoy their presence. Marcus is such a sweet little boy and couldn't have done a better job at soaking up all the love and attention.
The paparazzi arrived in full force
Cake. Yum.

We miss you too! I will show Owen these pictures later - I am sure he'll then ask when we are going to play with Lydia.
And, are those kolaches in the background? Looks like you miss the Czech food. Should we send you some rohliky? A Christmas carp?
Give Marcus a birthday squeeze from us!
Awww! I'm so happy Marcus had a good birthday! He looks so big and he has so much hair. I'm amazed. I really miss you all ... but I'm so glad you've been enjoying the fall!
Happy birthday,Marcus! Wow - a year goes by so quickly...it doesn't seem like that long ago that I traipsed out to that forever-far-away hospital with a goody bag for you guys. Missing you, but glad you're doing well.
