We are ready for summer!

Today on Sesame Street (one of Lilly favorite shows) Lilly saw all these kids swimming. She was so excited and kept telling me she wanted to going swimming. Then she went in her room and found her swimming suit. First of all I could not believe she found her suit and second I believe she remembered that it was for. So finally after dinner I let Lilly wear her swim suit in the bath. She had so much fun. Oh the simple joys of life. So needless to say Lilly is so ready for the summer and swimming. I am so happy she loves the water as much as I do. We are going to have a blast this summer!

Utah in Feb.

Lilly and I were fortunate to be able to visit Utah for a week. It was so great to see the family again. Living here in Milwaukee has been hard for me and I really needed a trip to Utah. Being that I am now 26 weeks along in the pregnancy my doctor does not really want me flying anymore. So this was our final trip before our new baby girl joins the family. (I know I still don't know her name but I am just waiting to make sure I pick the right name.)

We had a great time just hanging out. Lilly loved playing dress up with her cousin Madie. I wish I had more pictures but here a few fun ones from our trip.

Lilly playing and singing a song for us.

Lilly may love wearing pretty dresses but she still loves trucks!


Lilly and her baby cousin Easton. They have both changed so much from Christmas. Lilly still wanted to hold him all the time.


Poor Allie was Lilly's own personal horsey. My parents have the best dogs!


Even Sarah got to play dress up with Lilly.

Well thanks again to my family for the wonderful time! I am sorry I did not get a chance to see everyone. Our next trip out will be in August.

It is time.

So I have decided to make my blog private. I just like knowing who is checking out our lives. Anyway please send me your email either in a comment or email me (sbmcaffee@gmail.com). I will be making my blog private on the 13th of February.

I hope you all had a great January but for some reason I am so glad it is over!

Thanks

Are you ready...

Are you ready for the big game on Sunday? Lilly is! Go Steelers!

Our Little Snowman

Lilly loves to sing the snowman song. I think it is so funny that anytime she says snow she wrinkles her nose in disgust. She gets that from me. I really don't like the snow. I just didn't realize that I wrinkled my nose every time I say snow. Kids pick up on everything you do. Anyway here are a few clips of her singing the snowman song. She had just finished dinner that is why she is sitting in her chair. I will have to get some better footage sometime.

Lilly and Easton

This is one of my favorite pictures from our trip to Utah and I forgot to post it. Lilly just loved baby Easton. She loved holding him and rocking him. She did not like that I had to help her hold him though. It really gives me hope that she will love her new baby sister this May. Easton is such a cute baby who looks just like my brother KC. When we first arrived in Utah Easton was in the hospital because he was not able to keep his milk down. He had to have surgery. It was hard to see him all hooked up to machines and everything. He was released a few days later and started gaining weight. He filled out so much just in the short time we were there. Well Lilly just loved holding him. I loved holding him as well. I felt like I could not get enough of the sweet little guy.

Sister, Sister

Well the results are in.... Lilly is going to have a little sister. I am so excited that Lilly will have a sister to grow up with. More importantly our little girl seems to be totally healthy! We are sooooo excited for her to join our family!
