Here Comes Santa Claus!!!

Oh! We are already loving all the firsts with our little Penny! So this was the 1st time she got to see Santa (Oh and Mrs Claus too)! No tears or screams from this pretty little one! Actually only from Santa when Penny pulled on his beard! Ouch! You can see it in the pic and he was so sweet to her when she did it! She can get those little fingers tangled fast in your hair if you're not careful! It's cause she's jealous cause she has none on her own head! haha! We are just loving being mommy and daddy! It's the best!

Zane's 1st Birthday!

My little nephew Zane just had his very 1st birthday! I can't believe how fast this last year has gone by! He is the sweetest little boy! He didn't care to much for his cake, but I will tell you what he loves the most and that is balloons!!!! He doesn't care if there are flying in the air or dragging on the floor behind him! He just loves them! So my sister Eryka had balloons all over the house and made him a balloon shaped cake! So fun! He didn't let go of the balloons all day! (as you can see in all the pics) He is so adorable! I love you Zane!! I can't believe you're 1!!!!

Fun Photoshoot!

We got are selves all dolled up for some family pics! I'm pretty sure pretty Penny had the most fun! Look at that happy smiley face! She is the best! We have so much fun with her! She is just loving getting all dolled up for her picture done and mom is loving it too!!!!

Penny's Special Blessing Day!

A special day to remember! Chad blessed our precious little angel on Nov 7,2010! It was a perfect day! We felt so much love from tons of family and friends that came to support us! The best Grandma in the world (Grandma Deedee) handmade Penny's dress! It is the most gorgeous dress ever! It fits little Penny's personality perfect or should I say it fits mommy's personality! haha! Big...dramatic...long...tons of tool! She looked just like a princess! She is so beautiful and perfect! We love you Penny!

Somebody Got Their Ears Pierced!!

Our little diva is now just about 3 1/2 mons so daddy and I decided to take her to get her ears pierced! Little Penny was amazing! Daddy held her while I captured the moment on my iphone! It definitely scared her, but WOW she was smiling not even 10 secs after they were done! She is a trooper! I guess it was just mommy and daddy that were the ones all worked up and worried for her! She already knows "Pain is Beauty!" and the pain isn't going to stop her!!!! haha!!!

The Bierstedt Family Beach Vacation!

For Christmas this past year, DeeDee (Chad's mom) surprised us all with a week vacation to Oceanside, CA! Almost all of Chad's siblings live across the states so it was great to get everyone together to catch up and make memories! We had such a great time! And the weather of course was perfect! Thanks! mom! We love you!!!

Happy 1st Birthday Mav!!

My nephew Mav just turned 1! I can't believe it! He was the most precious thing about his cake! He wasn't so sure about his Sponge Bob cake at first until he tasted it! We couldn't keep his little paws out of it! But I think deep down Chance wanted the Sponge Bob cake all to himself! He kept talking to it thinking it was alive! It was the funniest thing ever! I love these boys so much!
