Sorry this post is a couple days after the fact, but I got really sick the night of Lily's party. I am recovered and excited to share some pictures from Lily's big days (the first party was at my house with immediate family and then Jeff and Sarah celebrated with Lily at my Nana's on Sunday while I was at home sick). I can't believe a year ago we were just bringing our little 7 pound baby girl home from the hospital. Now, at 22 lbs., she is running around (literally), saying words, and making our world a much happier place with her smile! It is cute to see her cart around baby dolls and play with her kitchen set and fake food. Time has gone way too fast, but I have loved every minute of Ms. Lillian! What a wonderful set of family and friends she has been surrounded by these last 12 months. We appreciate everyone who has been a part of it and look forward to many more years of memories!

This weekend, Ty and Sarah came to visit while Jeff went to work in Dayton with Pat. The babies played together very nicely (except for the one black eye that Lily gave Ty-by accident of course!). On Sunday, we celebrated Lucia's 3rd birthday at the Ball State bowling alley. Lily was in heaven watching all the kids play. She even got to roll a ball down the lane a couple times! We also took Ty and Lily to get new shoes since they are both growing and moving around so much. It was a wonderful visit-the moms even got to watch a movie and enjoy a glass of wine one night! :)

Snow Angel

this is fun!

hard to walk in

Lots of cold weather and snow made Lily excited! We escaped the house for a few minutes of fresh air and let her trudge through her first snow. Lily liked the fluffy white stuff (especially the dogs trying to run in it).
