Tea Time!

Early this morning Anna hosted her very first tea party. The attire was formal (only your best PJs) and Tigger, Mrs. Monk (the monkey), Mr. Hop-Hop and Elmo were the special guests. Everyone had a great time and promised to be back tomorrow (though hopefully a little later in the day...).

Penguins? On a Wednesday?

Anna and Mama spent the morning singing one of Anna's favorite songs about penguins. When Anna got up from her nap and requested it again, Mama thought why not go see the penguins? Ahh the joys of being Mama/grad student!!!:) Hooray for spontaneous Wednesdays!

Happy Anniversary, Mama and Dada!

To celebrate Mama and Dada's anniversary, Anna took them out for a very lovely dinner. We all had a lot of fun! (Thanks to Auntie Niru for Anna's beautiful dress!)

How long have Mama and Dada been married? That's right, Anna, 5 years!

French food is funny...

Not a great picture, but a very happy family! :)

Philly Phanatic

Although they've hung out in Pittsburgh and Chicago, Anna decided it was high time to go visit Aunt Julie in Philly. She, Mama and Aunt Julie had a great girls' weekend, including trips to the Please Touch Museum, the fountain in Rittenhouse Square and other Philly hot spots. Anna also had a blast wearing Unkie Scott's cold weather clothes. Thanks for a great visit, Aunt Julie. We miss you already! Maybe next time we'll get to the Crayola factory... :)

Mashi Turns 30! (Or Anna goes to ASA)

Mashi turned 30 and Mama had a conference, so we all met in Boston our old stomping grounds. Anna surprised Mashi (who didn't know we were coming) by pretending to be "room service" and showing up at her door. It was a wonderful trip. Anna misses Kaka and Mashi already--where are we going next guys?

Happy 30th Birthday Mashi!!!

With Kaka and Mashi (Hooray!!!!)

Doing Anna's favorite thing-- riding the "T"

Out and about in Beantown

Getting to the train in style (Thanks Dada and Kaka!)

Enjoying the hotel and our great view from the balcony...

Burgh Baby

Now that she's a big girl, Anna is really begging to appreciate all that Pittsburgh has to offer. The Children's Museum, including Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, The Pgh Zoo, and North Park. Her favorite thing about Pittsburgh? All four of her grandparents are there!
