I walked into her room to this after her morning nap yesterday....

I about peed my pants laughing when I saw this. There she is just hanging out, swinging her feet like she is on a swing or something, happy as can be. This little monster makes me smile so much. xoxo

Cheerios are fun to.....

use as a tooth...

feed to your brothers...

pick up....

save them on your face for later....

and of course to eat, even if they do slip through the cracks sometimes. :)

Yeeeeahhhh, totally behind, so quick posts to try to start catching up. My birthday was awesome, first one with the Monster!!! Daddy did a HORRIBLE thing and bought the chocolate lovers cake from DQ (my fave ice cream cakes EVER) I thought I just had an addiction to DQ cakes, uh now it is the choc lovers!! YUMMO! Thanks Lillie and Daddy for the best bday! kisses from the bday girl!! xoxo

Lillie's First Easter

Ok so I have a TON of easter photos to put up, I will get to those soon. Had to throw these up there for a sneak peek. lol Happy Easter!!

Lillie's first TOOTH!!!

I am SO far behind on this blog and my 365 blog, but I have been a good girl and studying my butt off for my boards. I had to share this though. We just found Lillie's first tooth cutting through!! hee hee Dan actually saw it first, the morning of her 6 month check up. We shall see how long it takes for it to come all the way in. Our little monster is growing up so fast!! The other one is just a shot while I was trying to get the tooth!! And I just loved her blue eyes, she definitely has her momma's eyes!! :)

Sunday Funday with Nana

Lillie's Easter hat from her Nana, no that is not her Easter outfit...lol

Dan works every other weekend, and he works 12 hour shifts. So some weekends can be a little lonely for us two girls. So, we have declared the sundays that Dan works...Sunday Fundays with Nana!! :) My mom comes up, we go to church, then off for a little shopping, today's trip was easter shoes for Lillie and THE cutest easter hat from Nana for Lillie. Followed up by a relaxing afternoon with a tasty lunch at our home. Nana brought us a tasty lunch of crusty bread, british cheese, fruit and sushi. The orange slice had Lillie's name all over it! She LOVED IT! At first it was too big and awkward for her to hold so we made it smaller and she loved it! It is the first time she has fed herself on her own!! Such a big girl. She sucked the orange slice dry!! She was serious about it!! Today Nana also got to see what an inch worm Lillie is. She is constantly moving around the floor, it is hilarious. That girl can move, she will be crawling before long!!

Thanks again Nana for our Sunday Funday. We are VERY much looking forward to the next one. We miss you already!! xoxo

Daddy's little girl

Ok, so I had to sneak in two more. I really have to get back to the books!!! It was so gorgeous on wed, we played outside with George and the monster for quite some time. We had a blast, so nice to get out in the fresh air. We love us some spring! :)

first time in the grass...

Lillie's first time in the grass and she loved it! More pics to come, just had to at least get this up, we had so much fun outside with her that day!

Our precious little monster...

This is one of my all time favorites of her. We love you monster. xoxo

Seriously...I have to go to bed...LOL

Seriously...last post of the night, or early morning I guess. Why does Picnik have to be such a time suck?!?! And a good one at that. Ha! Tomorrow is going to be rough. :)

I love the picnik website...

So as you can see, I used the same photos twice. Just playing with one of my fave websites...picnik. Lillie is so in love with George it is just almost too cute. She lights up every single time she sees him. She doesn't even try to kiss us yet, but as you can see she is all about kissing her Georgie. Anytime you put her near him she closes her eyes and opens her mouth and goes in for the big one. She also stretches her hands out to the max just to touch him. Hee hee, they are so cute together.

She sure does love her puppy...

It was only a matter of time....

Our handsome old man....

This was made by my lovely Angela. She took the time to make me a few Louie collages and at first I was going to post them all at once, but then I decided it would be more fun to spread them out and spread out the memories with him. We miss him like crazy. The house isn't the same without the biggin in it anymore, but we know he isn't hurting. Thank you so much Ang, I know you loved Louie just like we did. You have no idea how much this made my day. I love you!!

First time with a veggie mum-mum :)

I am supposed to do what with this?

Hee hee, fingers win again! Such a silly girl.

She had her first veggie mum mum the other day and it started well, she was curious and gave it a whirl. The fingers ended up winning again. Such a silly girl we have. We love you Lillie Monster. xoxo

Happy St. Patrick's Day...part one....

Nana Holt and all of her grandkids. :)

This year St. Patty's day fell on a thursday which meant Dan and I had to work. So, after a few pictures that morning by her momma dearest, Lille was off to ring in St. Patty's Day with one of her other families. :) Thank you guys so much (Woods and Holts) for celebrating with the monster. These will definitely be in her baby book for part of her first St. Patty's Day. We will be celebrating later today, more pics to follow....
