Willow - 19 months

This month we finally mailed our New Year's letters. As Willow gets older, we just keep getting busier, though it might not be entirely her fault. Andy went to his second Epic interview, and Mandy worked on school projects. She was able to interview her Grandma about her life, which was really interesting, and we were able to visit Jeff, Ti, Cynthia, Lauralei, and the chickens. The first midterms this semester came up really fast. February 27th we were lucky to go visit Mom and Dad in Milwaukee. We picked up great used books, had a nice meal, and Willow had a great time. In March, Willow finally said her own name and started putting together two-word phrases. It's amazing how quickly she has grown. She no longer looks like a baby, but a real toddler, and she has such a personality.
