What an exciting week...not only did we ring in the New Year but we established many, many firsts for our family, mainly Saylor Lillie. New Year's Eve brought us our first snow fall. I'm not sure who was more excited, Saylor or Daddy. Daddy had been talking about taking his little girl sledding since the day she was born in a snow storm. 
Well, the time had finally arrived - hence, our first #1, a sledding experience. Needless to say, Daddy's expectations were short lived. 
Next, we moved on to First #2 - our angel made a snow angel. Basically, she made the angel and continued to roll in the snow for about 5 minutes. 
In an effort to divert her attention, daddy gave her - First #3 - a taste of snow. This was the demise of the day. She could not get enough and would not stop!

I was pleasantly surprised how smoothly the party went, given the fact that 9 kids under the of 4, devoured cake, ice cream and punch. 
It's amazing our little girl is turning two...it's amazing how fast time flies. 
It took over an hour to rock her asleep. The lengthy time stemmed from the fact that she is never rocked completely asleep - usually, just rocked for a few minutes then placed in her crib. But, my thought process was, if she was out, she wouldn't care which bed she was in. In the end, tucked into bed and coerced into pleasant dreams, she was asleep. And to finish the firsts for the week...#6, she stayed in her bed until morning!
