Lillian Turns 2!

Happy Birthday to the sweetest little girl in the world!!

Lily had a fun birthday celebration with friends and family.  She was showered with cool gifts and lots of love. The birthday celebrations started early in the week when she received a princess castle from Aunt Krissy!  She loves to play in the castle with her stuffed "aminals" as she calls them.  Grandma and Pap Pap came to visit for the weekend and brought with them a new tricycle that Lily and Pap Pap put together.  Saturday was Lily's party and the weather was so beautiful that everyone got to play outside all afternoon.  It was such a blast!

Pops came to visit for lunch one day and Lily loved giving him hugs and kisses. 

So happy to see Pops!

We spent a lot of time outdoors over the weekend, getting ready for spring. Lily had a blast playing while we worked. She was exceptionally cute when she blew Daddy kisses while he took wheelbarrows full of sticks and leaves to the back of the property.   Video: Bye, bye, Dadda!

Playing outside!

Being silly while reading with Dad.

Resident expert at going down the stairs alone.

She likes to say "One more!" when she's close to the bottom.

Lily loves to be silly with Dad in the evenings.  Tonight they had a really fun time with the cat toy...Video: Silly Lily!

We spent Sunday with Mom's god daughter, Bella.  We all had a FUN day!  We went to the park and played on swings, slides and see-saws then came home and played outside with the cats.  Not sure who is more exhausted after today...Mom or the girls!

My pink ladies at the park!

Grandma & Grandpap Visit

We had so much fun when Grandma and Grandpap came to visit last weekend.  Lily recognized them right away and was so happy they came to play with her.  We had fun dancing, hopping, watching movies and playing on the playground.  Lily had us in stitches the whole weekend with her big personality and hysterical gestures. When Lily came home from school on Monday, she was asking for "Nee Nee and Pap Pap", it was just too cute.   There are quite a few pictures and videos, enjoy!

Having fun playing mexican train dominos.
