Lilly is 4 Months

                

                                         




We are a few days late but this little angel is now 4 months! I can't believe we are already at 4 months! This is the beginning of my favorite stage! I love newborns and I am sad she is leaving that age but this is when it gets so fun!

At Four Months Lilly...

Has found her hands and loves them

Is starting to get a bottom tooth we think

Loves to growl

Loves to talk back to you

Loves to bounces and kick her little legs

Loves to be sung to, especially the Doc McStuffins song

Is so smiley in the morning

Loves to play with her big sister

Loves walks

Is still a funny little eater

Loves her swing

Has out grown her reflux! Oh happy day!

Has gotten so so happy and content

Gives the sweetest smiles and her whole face lights up

Has rolled over from back to front



Father's Day 2012


Elsie and Lilly have the best daddy in the whole world in my opinion! We were so excited to show him just how much we love him on Father's Day. Elsie helped me write all the cards for Dave, my dad and Dav'es dad. She told me what to say for her and Lilly and they were the sweetest things ever. We made Dave a special Peaches and Cream french toast and then that night we went over to my moms for a bbq and Daves favorite... chocolate cake and lime freezes. We are so lucky to have Dave in our lives. He is such a great example to us. He reminds us to always stay positive, always remember to laugh and your self, serve others, always be friendly and think of others! We are also so lucky for our Grandpas. They are also such great examples of hard work and loving the outdoors! Happy Fathers Day!!

Sweet Little Lilly's Blessing

Today we blessed Lilly and it was such a special day. There is something about those tiny sweet little babies all dressed in white. Its such a humbling and spiritual experience. Dave gave her the most beautiful blessing and she was great for the whole thing! I felt such love and gratitude for the two of them!


















Right after Dave sits down she naturally has a blow out IN HER DRESS! I could have died. My mom and I took her home to get her changed and clean the dress. We got it pretty clean and dry and I meant to change her back into it but things got going and it never happened! Oh well! She still had the shoes and headband I guess and she looked beautiful! We had close friends and family over to our house afterwards to share Lilly's special day.

Love these two, little twins... they are the cutest!


Caught red handed. She had used her stool (that thing will be the death of me but I don't have the heart to throw it away) to get out the cool whip and eat it with a spoon


Elsie in her office



That stool... she now knows how to unlock all the doors except the front but don't you worry she is working on it


We went with Quinn and Annie to wheeler farm and feed the ducks! Elsie was in heaven but I may have taught her to be scared of ducks now. I have a total bird phobia and some crazy duck kept trying to touch her leg. By then end she was running if a duck came too close.


Crazy girl... she was eating the oil of dirt in the background

We love to eat graham crackers and milk after nap time


LOVE this sweet thing and LOVE this outfit! Dave thought I was kidding when I put her in it

We had a picnic at our favorite park in Alpine


Lilly and her future BF Roman




Elsie insisted on taking Lilly for a ride


This girl and her doll stroller.... I swear she is a bag lady/hoarder at heart. She goes around the house and collects the weirdest things and then stuffs them in bags and attaches them to her doll stroller. Cracks me up! The crazy hair just adds to the whole thing!





Preston is obesessed with Thor and super heroes so naturally Elsie is now. She saw Prest dressed up and needed some clothes then insisted Hadley dress up too! Love these three!
