Lily's Birthday Dress!

Natalie gave this to Lily last year when she was making Syndey's first birthday dress! We didn't brave her wearing it with her cake (especially since it would have just been for me and Josh) however - we did let her wear it to church today?! What a cutie :) Thanks Nat!!

Lily wants to eat some Daddy!

So this is something Lily has started doing lately. It comes without warning - whenever you're eating something and she can see you eating or smell it (ie GUM is a big one...) and she decides she wants some! It's usually quite the surprise but we tried to catch it on video (sorry I did it sideways...) So this one took a little prompting because the camera caught her eye. ANYWAY - we are usually laughing so hard as we try and dodge her. It's pretty gross - but hilarious ALL the same.

Happy Birthday Lily!!!!

A few of our favorites... from 12/15/2008 almost exactly from her birth time! It was -10 on the day she was born and it's only 2 degrees today... so we consider that close enough!! Lily had a "normal" day going to daycare as mom and dad worked - but she came home to balloons, gifts (which most of you supplied) and cake! Enjoy!!
