Lily's convertible

Okay, so it's not really hers. It's Joey's. He let her borrow it to take for a spin. We may have to buy her a pink one. She LOVED it!!! Her eyes are closed on the last one, but it's still so cute!

Traveltown

Jeff and I played tourist this week while we were on vacation and it was pretty cool. We had a date at the Getty one day and went to Traveltown the next so Lily could see the trains at the park. Here are pics from the trains...

Lily's Birthday!

Lily's first taste of sugar! I baked all 60 of the cupcakes from scratch and frosted them as well (from scratch). NEVER AGAIN!!!





Here she is in the tunnel with Sophia.

Naked Baby

Here are some nakie baby pictures from yesterday. I took these for Tutu and her dear friend Kathy. Tutu is visiting Washington D.C. this week and will miss her Monday with Lily. So Tutu...here you go! We miss you!

 

 

 

Polliwog Park

At the beginning of February we had a weekend heatwave and went to the park with Lily. Here are some pics from the swings which she loves! There is a pond with ducks, but she wasn't interested.

 

 

 

 

Tia and Lil

Here they are! Tia Raquel and Lily! I've said it a million times and I'll say it a million more..we are so LUCKY to have Raquel. We LOVE her! All of us!

 

New things!

So I don't have pictures of these things but this is what she's doing now:

1. pulling herself up to stand- I think she'll be walking when she sees Dave & Judy at the end of February or beginning of March (sorry you probably wont get to see her crawl)

2. holding her own bottle and sippy cup

3. her new cocktail is a bottle of breastmilk and whole milk (yep, we're weaning)

4. eating wheat & dairy (no sign of allergies)

5. laughing so hard at Maddy because Maddy is wearing one of those ridiculous cones

She loves animals...

Here she is playing with my parents new cat they adopted. Waffles was so good with her. He really makes Ludwig look like a bad big brother.



And no that's not Maddy in the background! It's Daisy...her twin!


Learning to crawl has really paid off!

Lasagna, Tofu, & Wheat germ

This is what she looks after she eats. She loves Tofu with wheat germ!

 

Sleeping with Daddy

On the weekends we like to put Lily back in bed with us now that she's older (so we can sleep longer). I took this last weekend. It is by far my favorite picture!

 

We've got a crawler!

It finally happened...she's on the move!

Christmas

A little late, but here you go! I am the one who opened all her gifts so there are no pictures of those. Sorry! But here are some highlights from the morning.

Here she is in a handmade gorgeous flannel Christmas dress.
 

Lily and Grandma
 

Uncle Jeff bought her a drum!
 

G-ma Donna (my G-ma Sue's friend) gave Lily a personalized onsie. So cute!
 

My cousin Ryan

I spent the morning today with my cousin Ryan. He is 6 years old and he was very good with me. Here are some pictures that my Uncle Robert took. My mom says we kind of look alike.




Good God! Look at those thighs!


Easy...Don't squeeze the Charmin!


See what happens when you squeeze me...
we fall over!

A Christmas dress from Tutu

Jane bought Lily a dress for the holidays while she was visiting Olive in South Carolina. Lily just looks absolutely beautiful in it! She loves the camera!

Precious Snapshots

If I could capture some moments in time, these would be a couple of them.

Lily & Mom

Our friend Nancy took some pictures of Lily & me at the beach one morning because I don't really have any pictures with Lily since I am the one with the camera. Here is my favorite!

Lily's Thanksgiving Meal

I actually Made Lily's meal but she didn't care for it. I pureed the homemade cranberry apricot dish with turkey. Oh well, maybe next year!

Lily's First Thanksgiving Trip

Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving at my parents house.
