The gimpy crawl!

Well like most things Lilly has her own and very determined way of doing things. She just started crawling Dec. 28, 2007 and hasn't stopped since. What a joy she is!

Happy New Year!

Lilly had a rock'n New Years eve hanging out with her cousin Madison! She also loved seeing her aunts, uncles, grandma Lois and grandpa Ken. Well Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone! Lilly had a wonderful first Christmas even though she is sick. At first she really did not want t have anything to do with opening presents.









But after she got a peek inside the gift she was all about the presents!

















We had a wonderful day hanging out with Grandma Patty and Grandpa Richard.







After a nap we headed off to Grandma Lois and Grandpa Ken's house where Lilly spent time playing with her cousin Madison and aunts and uncles!


We had a wonderful Christmas together and hope you all did as well. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!!!

Here I am

That is right, Lilly is starting to pull herself up on everything. When I go to get her out of her crib she is always trying to climb out.

Jolly Old Saint Nick

Lilly met Santa for the first time this past weekend. They really seemed to hit it off!

"Hey everyone he is real!"

"Don't worry Santa, I am always a good girl!"

Turkey!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Ryan was king over the turkey this year. He did a wonderful job. The turkey turned out so moist and flavorful. We had a busy day going to two dinners. Ryan and I decided all the running around is worth it because we love to see all our family on the holidays. Lilly was such a trooper through it all. (She has been battling her first cold.) She loved seeing both sets of grandparents. Well now the holidays are upon us. Although you would not know it by looking outside. It has been so warm. The other day we were still in the 70's.

Fall!!!

I have decided that I just love fall. So far I think it is Lilly's favorite season as well. (She just loves to eat the leaves) I love the chill in the air, the beautiful colors and the crunch of the leaves. I find myself wondering off the sidewalk all the time just so I can crunch the leaves with my feet.

Lilly is sporting her H & M outfit that aunt Marie helped us pick out when we were visiting this September.
