one love

{Lily a few days old}
Can you even believe that Lily is ONE YEAR OLD? I can't.

We started today off with L O N G nap {she must have known it was her birthday/my celebration?} and then we went over to visit Lily's father and my husband for lunch....and had a chocolate/coconut scone and a black berry italian soda. She loved them, we loved them.

I believe that I also have reason to be happy, extremely happy actually. Because I have been un-pregnant for a year. No barfing, hugeness, swolleness for a whole year!
Lily got some new 'threads' today:

Blazer/hoody that makes her look like a boy.

blurry head, but a cute shirt, little yellow birdies!

little dress that (doesn't really wash her out this bad in real life) is super cute with her tights.


Lily stats:

Taken 3 steps {solo}

dada is everything

feeds her self with a spoon

gives kisses on demand

two naps a day

sticks her tongue out when its cold, windy or rainy

VERY independent

doesn't like to be held for more than a few minutes

mimics what we do ("fold" laundry, dishes, etc...)

SO busy, ALWAYS moving. ALWAYS.

hilarious


No big celebration? No cake?No dancing and making merry?Me? Come on, don't you know me?

The real party is next weekend. Don't fret, its going to be awesome.

Happy Birthday, It's crazy how time flies right? I didn't know she had the same B-day as London, even though they are two years apart. Happy Birthday Lily!

I love the pic of your shoes. Oh she is really too cute. No, Michelle's friend's last name is Byron and they have been together since 2nd grade, Michelle feeding Byron. Last season, it was the Michelle show, but now she is back to feeding the strikers--and they are beautiful assists. ONE DAY, she will STRIKE, I eagerly await that day.Really I do!

I'm so jealous of the two naps-Olivia is down to just one and I miss that morning time to myself! Cherish it while it lasts!
