New Tricycle!

Our Big Girl on her Big Girl Tricycle! She hasn't quite figured out how to peddle but she tries SO hard and I think she'll get it very soon!

Tumbling

These are pictures from Lillian's first tumbling class...they LOVE to tumble and I LOVE the 30 minutes down time! Can't wait for next session...at a NEW place this time :)

This is WAY overdue...DORA LIVE for Lillian's Birthday!

I have been a blog slacker...but I have LOTS to post about since it has been so long!! Mom and I took Lillian to the Fox Theater to see Dora Live for her birthday and Lillian had a blast! She sat so still for so long watching Dora on stage and she even got a chance to get down and dance in the aisle. I highly suggest Dora Live to anyone whose kids love Dora and Diego...I seriously can't wait to take her to see it again!!

Oh how I LOVE her...

This little girl is my heart...I love her more than I ever thought possible! As I prepare myself for the new school year I find myself getting teary eyed at the thought of not having her with me all day. I know she will be taken care of and loved on, but I will miss her TERRIBLY! I LOVE you Lillian!

Georgia Aquarium

We took Lillian on her first trip to the Georgia Aquarium and I'm sure it won't be our last! She LOVED it! The minute we walked in the door and saw the HUGE walls of fish she went crazy...yelling "pishy, pishy, pishy" as loud as she could! She hopped right out of her stroller and ran over to them...it was PRICELESS! She even loved the 4-D theater and somehow managed to sit quietly through the whole thing...which you all know is difficult for her to do! She also had her first encounter with a celebrity while we were there...Rosie O'donnel and her family were there and Rosie walked by us and told me I had a "cute baby." Yes, I know it was ONLY Rosie O'donnel, but she's still a celebrity :) We managed to make it through the entire aquarium in 2 hours because Lillian has the attention span of a 2 year old! For anyone who hasn't been yet, I totally recommend it! I can't wait to take her back! Here are some pictures from the trip!

Seriously...

So this is what Lillian has learned over the summer...



WOW...so I guess we may not be up for Parents of the Year!

Divalicious...

I'm going to have my hands full in the future...watch out World!

Father's Day 2009

Happy Father's Day honey! Thank you for being such a great Daddy to our little girl! We love you!



We had a great Father's Day weekend! Chad's parents came in town and Lillian loved having Gigi and Papop here! We took Lillian to the pond in the neighborhood and Chad began teaching Lillian how to fish...she LOVED it!

Friends

These are pictures from the SHS soccer game...the kids were so cute sitting next to each other on the steps :) (Chad...you all did GREAT! We are SO PROUD of you!!)

Easter 2009

What an incredible Easter we have had! We began the day checking out what the Easter Bunny brought, went to church and then headed over to Kittie and David's house for an Easter Egg Hunt and Easter lunch. I am so thankful for them...they have taken us in and treat us like family...THANK YOU Miss Kittie! The kids enjoyed the Egg Hunt and were great at finding the eggs! I looked back and compared pictures from last Easter and it still amazes me how much changes in a year! Here are pictures from the day!

Checking out her Easter Basket


Beautiful!


Egg Hunting!


Drew and Lillian...they were over the pictures I think!


Our Family

Trash Can?

So last night I sent Lillian to throw some trash away in the trash can. She headed back toward her bedroom and we figured she was just using the bathroom trashcan. I later checked to make sure the trash ended up in the right place so I looked in the bathroom trashcan and there was NO trash. So I checked the next obvious place, her laundry hamper, and there it was! I thought it was too cute...can't blame her for trying!

The Masters~Augusta National 2009

For the 3rd year in row, the boys headed up to Augusta and somehow got themselves tickest inside Practice Day 1 of the Masters. Here are pictures from their trip!

And I saved the BEST for last...

THE TIGER WOODS! You have to look closely :)

Beautiful Day!

What a beautiful day today has been! Lillian is an outdoor girl all the way, so when the weather is nice we basically LIVE outside! Today we walked down to the pond to feed the fish and turtles. Lillian had fun watching them eat the bread...she also had fun eating the bread herself! It was neat to see how much the turtles had grown since last year. After the pond we headed home and played in the backyard until I had to drag her in screaming "NO!" so she could get a nap. I have never in my life appreciated Spring like a do now! Hopefully the cold days are a thing of the past and this warm weather is here to stay!
