Happy St. Patrick's Day!

So pictures this morning started out with Ashley in her

St. Patrick's Day outfit (thank you, Craig!)....

...and she was being her adorable little self...
....I even almost caught a smile on camera....
....looking up at Mommy (makes my day!)....
....and she even decided to ponder the day....
....when suddenly, someone else decided to start being a ham and

get in on the picture taking fun!

Need I say any more?

Cooking with Grandma and Grandpa!

After Dad and Carol's Caribbean cruise, they stopped by New York to welcome the newest little Platt! Carol had taken a cooking class on one of the excursions and she graciously shared her newest recipes with us one night. Danielle had a blast 'helping' Grandpa and Grandma prepare dinner.....

And by the way -- it was all WONDERFUL!!!!

Visitors!

We had so much fun with everyone coming out to visit and meet Ashley, but Danielle also had fun visiting with everyone who was here. Here's a few little snapshots of her.....

And I still need to find a few decent pictures of Aunt Linda and Auntie Beth with her....soon, I promise!
