Where did November go?

Hello everyone!

I can't believe November is over.  It has been a pretty busy month for us.  I had my first ear infection and a terrible cold that has lasted for what feels like forever...(about 2 weeks).  I have successfully infected my entire family, so everyone has had a cold of some sort as well.

We've been shopping like crazy and listening to Christmas music and decorating the house.  I met the "Big Guy" and I cried on his lap.  I went to the Festival of Trees and loved all the lights and ornaments.  I can't wait for Mommy and Daddy to put up our tree so that I can torture them. 

Last night, Mommy and Daddy took holidays pictures of me, Dylan and Mollie for the Christmas cards.  It was so funny!  We were all laughing and having fun.  Mommy wants to put the pictures up here, but says she will post them next time...she doesn't want to give any hints about the cards...she is very proud of them.

I am standing everywhere, and Grammy thinks I will take off walking any day now.  I love to press the buttons on Grammy's TV...it is so fun! 

Oh, and Santa, if you are reading this...sorry that I cried on your lap....I have been really good!!!

Love, Lily

Sweet November!

Happy November everyone!  It has been a busy month so far.  Mommy and Daddy have been very busy.

What's new with cute little old me....hum...

Well, I can pull myself up on EVERYTHING, including my crib.  Mommy keeps saying that I think that I know how to walk.  Little does she know that I DO!!! 

I went to the dr. and I weigh 18 pounds and 8 ounces...and I am about 28 inches tall.  I am also allowed to eat just about anything that I want, except for eggs, strawberries, nuts and milk (no sweets or chocolate yet either, right Grammy???).  My favorite things to eat are anything that I can feed myself.  Every once in a while, my parents try to feed me babyfood...what are they thinking?  I LOVE cheerios, and kix.  I am still a huge puffs fan, but Grammy introduced me to the most heavenly food of all:  GRILLED CHEESE!!!! 

Mommy and Daddy don't know that I am paying attention...they keep talking about turkeys and trees, presents and snow.  I can't wait to find out what those things are!!!  Oh the fun of being 10 months old!

As you can see from my pictures, Mommy and Daddy brought me to the N.E Aquarium.  What a cool place!  I could live there!  Watching all those fish and sea animals.  

Hope you are well...and hope to see you soon!

Love, Lily

October 2006

Hello to my family and friends,

Whew!  October is flying by and these parents of mine are keeping me very busy.  No rest for us!

I have had a lot of firsts this October...apple picking, hay ride, pumpkin patch, Topsfield Fair, Halloween parties and costumes, big girl car seat (which I HATE) and the best thing of all.....I HAVE LEARNED HOW TO CRAWL!!!!!  How exciting!  Now, Mommy and Daddy can't let me out of their sight for two minutes!

I am doing really well.  I love spending Tuesdays with Grammy-girl and I am enjoying day care on Wednesdays and Thursdays.  My day care provider's name is Thaya, and she loves me so much!

Well, I hope you enjoy my pictures....Daddy uploaded over 100 of them for Mommy this morning.  He was saying something about her having a picture problem...I don't know what he is talking about!

Hope to see you soon!

Love, Lily  ♥

Pre-Halloween Pictures

Cheryl and I got the babies' pictures taken in their Halloween costumes.  They are so cute and were very busy during the pictures.  Cheryl and I worked up a sweat!  Enjoy and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

9 month pictures.

Lily had her 9 Month pictures taken today (yes, she is really 9 months old!!!). 

Family Pictures at the Beach

A friend of mine from work had a free package with a photographer that was going to expire, so she gave it to us ( THANKS KAY)  :)

So last Sunday, we went up to North Beach in Hampton, N.H. to have him shoot some pictures of the kids.  I thought it was going to be easy, and NEVER realized how difficult it is to get three children to smile all at the same time.  The older 2 children were VERY concerned with their baby sister and the baby sister was SO excited about the sand!!!!  We chose picture #2 which was taken at a garden across the street from the beach and picture #7. 

Last one for today

Joe downloaded almost 200 pictures for me...and these are the last ones...

As you can see, Lily brings us much joy.  She loves her big brother and sister, and they adore her.  We hope that as we enter the holiday season, we can get Lily together with many friends and family...she is such a happy, fun baby and she loves being with people.
