Big Girl

We have had lots to write about, but never enough time to write. By the time we get home from school and clean bottles and get dinner started, get her fed and put down to bed, Billy and I are exhausted and in bed ourselves. We haven't had time to blog, sadly.

But there is so much to say...

Lils went to her very first birthday party yesterday! Our friend Jayden was turning one, so we got to celebrate with him and enjoy some cake and ice cream. It was a fun party with LOTS of food. And Lils had a nice time looking around and hanging out. At first, she wasn't so sure what to think of all the noise and all the people and she cranked quite a bit, but not long after, she calmed down and was a happy happy girl.

Before the party, she put on one of my favorite fall outfits but it was too little! She really had to squeeze herself into the onesie to get it on. Wow. She is getting so long! So we actually had to break out the three month outfits from the closet and take out the newborn outfits and set them aside for donating. What a big step, moving from one size to another!

My girl is really growing up so quickly!

Ms. Myrtle and Ms. Paula both brag about her at the day care. They say that she acts more mature than the other babies and she really looks around and listens to everything that they have to say. She is certainly going to be an inquisitive child! She gets that from her Daddy!

So, Lilly, even though I am proud of you for becoming a big girl, take your time. Don't grow up too fast! We want you to enjoy being a baby for as long as you want!

  1. I am so glad you girls came to the party! We loved it, and we LOVE our book and toys! I hear you about growing up to fast, cannot believe how quickly a year just slides on by. I stopped saying "I can't wait for __" because I CAN wait! Each day is a new adventure, so hang on and enjoy! Hugs!
