Babylicious!

At the drive in movie Lily was in such a fun mood.  Every time I pointed the camera at her, she posed it up!  I had to take advantage of the situation.  Here are my favorites.  I probably should have made these into a collage, but I like big pictures. Please excuse the juice face.


This girl Loves to be silly,


Being part of our family,





DANCING,
 has the softest skin (like Tanner),


 gives great kisses, and nosies,


talking and laughing,

 being VERY busy, (This is the "What, you didn't want me to that naughty thing I just did?" look.  I see it often.)


and making faces. This is one of my favorite silly faces she makes, second only to the fishy face.

I can't believe she isn't going to be my "baby" much longer.  She is growing up more all the time...what a shame! I wish my kids would quit doing that.

Perched

This little girl baby loves to climb! Especially on the dining table.  She likes to perch herself up there and enjoy the view (or anything that may be up there).  We are working on it, but man, this one is determined.

Sugar Baby

If I am not quick to clean up after an oatmeal breakfast, my expert climber will be there to discover the sugar shaker and dump the whole thing out.

And have a great time.


And a tasty time too.





But who could be mad at a cute little girl baby that just happened to be wearing a cute bow and who makes the most delicious fishy faces.

Lily's Birthday

Lily turned one last month and I am finally blogging about it. We had a family party for her  and she was adorable as usual.  Lily got her first tooth days before her birthday. Totally normal for our kids.  She also started taking a few steps here and there around the same time.  Since then she slowly progressed, but preferred crawling still.  Then just this last weekend, she really started walking and not crawling anymore.  She is now a toddler with a cute bow legged walk. 

Lily's most common words are mama and dada.  She says dada so much that Dallin just started calling her that instead of her name.  Now all the kids call her "Dada".  (Dallin calls Peter by his first name for some reason so there is no confusion).

Lily loves to hug and cuddle and rest her head on my shoulder. She likes to be cheek to cheek and get kisses.  She also likes to bonk her head on other people's heads.

Lily has been a dream baby all the way. She has been easy and independent and happy most of the time since she was born.

We decided that she was a little monkey so we made her a monkey cake (idea from here).

Lily didn't hesitate to go for it. She had a blast.

I love this cute little baby so much.  She brings so much joy to our family.  She makes everyone smile and fall in love with her. Life would just not be right without her.
