Spring, spring, spring! We love you!

This week has been wonderful. The weather has been so warm so we have been spending every single night playing outside. Lily love, love, loves being outside. She loves playing with chalk, wagon rides, sliding down the slide, pushing her race car and bus and riding in her red card all over the driveway. On Sunday, we went to the Philadelphia Zoo with friends. Lily really liked looking at the different animals but I think Dad was more excited than anyone else. We saw peacocks, giraffes, a rhino, zebras, tigers, lions, cheetahs, monkeys and so much more. We can't wait to go back again!

Getting ready for school. So happy.

Red car!

Dinner on the deck.

Wagon ride!

First she pointed at a tree(right), then saw a cat in the window (left).

Sweet girl.

Lady driver, coming through!

Sporting her Pens jersey!

More teeth coming in have been giving Lily a rough time. So we made brownies and Lily got to lick the spatula.

Such a mess but she loved it!

Snakes at the Zoo!

Momma's and babies.

So big!

Daddies and babies. :)

Cheetahs!

Check out the peacock in the background. So cool!!

So sweet. XOXO

Easter Weekend

The weeks are flying by, Easter already!? We kicked off the weekend with Isabella and Gina at the Tot Lot in Media on Friday. It's a wonderful little kids park made of all plastic! The girls had a great time playing together. We spent Easter weekend in Allentown with Mom’s family. Saturday night at Grandma Louise’s and Sunday afternoon at Ba & Pops’. Lily had lots of fun! She gave us lots of laughs on Saturday night with a giant strawberry, went to a park in Grandma Louise’s neighborhood and swung on the big swings and participated in her first Easter egg hunt on Sunday! Lots of pictures….enjoy!!

First tire swing with her bff, Isabella.

Bella gives GREAT hugs.

The Easter Bunny brought Lily a tunnel!

He also brought an Elmo Jack-in-the-box!

Miss Lily refused to eat smaller pieces and insisted on the biggest strawberry in the pint...

And this is where we learned that white shirts and Lily do NOT mix...

She loved every single bite!

We'll be testing Oxiclean's power!

She ate the whole thing...even the leaves and stem! Silly girl.

And then it was cupcake time....Thanks for the green icing, Grandma Louise.

Messiest. Baby. Ever.

Dad and Lily. She's so long!!

Swinging at the park the next morning. The park is empty at 9 am in case you were wondering.

She laughed the whole time!

Happy lady.

Weeee!!

Easter dress! The hat lasted about 2 seconds.

Egg hunt!

More interested in the straws than the eggs.

An egg! Hurray!

Not quite sure what to make of it all. Maybe next year!

Lily and Dad. Dad with straws in face.

Pops, Ba and the little lady.

Relaxing on her new sofa from Ba! She lovessss it!

Spring!

Finally, spring is here!! We have spent a lot of time outside lately, chasing after Lily and playing with her toys. Her favorite thing to do right now is play with her blue chalk. Not pink...blue. She loves walking around in the evenings and look at the trees and plants in the yard. Inside, Dad has taught her how to stack her blocks, she's up to 4!

This week marked Lily's first big accident. A fall onto a broken piece of glass outside took us to the ER Sunday evening. Amazingly enough, she wasn't really phased by the whole thing and was really only annoyed because she was hungry and missed her afternoon nap. She ended up with 3 little stitches in her left palm. She is one tough cookie!
