Proud Parents

As most babies do, Lily loves bath time but I have wondered if she would feel the same about big water. Well, we found out this weekend! For those of you that may not know, her Grandma Christie has been teaching swimming lessons for over 20 years. She and I have had many conversations about "dunking" Lily. Sunday we put her in and she loved it!




Her lesson went great. There was some fussing but much less than I expected. Pat and I are very proud of her and can't wait to see what the summer brings!

Happy Easter!

I am not sure why but I really, really, really wanted to take Lily to see the Easter Bunny. She hasn't been feeling well so it took me 2 tries to actually get to the mall. She was happy the entire wait....until it was our turn. She was over it! I put her on the bunny's lap, pulled out her binky and this is what we got...


I never had any intention of making this a tradition but after standing in line for 3 overpriced, poor quality photos I will not be doing this again next year but I am happy to have the memories of Lily on her first Easter, overdressed, whining on a creepy bunny's lap!

She turned 5 months (WOW!) 2 days after Easter so I went with the bunny theme this month. Here is my little funny bunny!



I had to take many, many pictures to get the 2 previous "good" ones. She spent most of her time trying to eat her tutu, the eggs and everything else she could get her hands on.



So, while I had a grand vision for her photos, she was uncooperative but that's okay....I've got many years of dress up ahead to make up for it.
