Sledding in the neighbor's yard
Swinging and snow - two of Lera's great loves. Even when Aidan & Kristin didn't want to go out, she'd venture out on her own.
On January 14, Lera turned 3!
Our traditional 'stand by the post' birthday shot - with Kristin, who turned 7 on Valentine's Day
Low-key celebration on her actual birthday... the cupcake is lame, I admit....
...but she had another celebration in Akron with the Hickey gang.
I couldn't help but be moved by the fact that this just might have been Lera's first birthday cake of her very own. Her 2nd birthday, at the baby house, included a group cake for all of the kids with winter birthdays (and the kids didn't even get to eat it; the caregivers did).
Other family events this winter -
Russ turned 42
Sporting his I-just-wanna-be-hairy-after-chemo look
Kristin turned 7
Aidan took 2nd in his Pinewood Derby
Watching the races with Lera (he wasn't so serene for his own race...)
Victory!
