Lily is old enough for a trip down memory lane...

I can already look back and say 'remember when' and I'm realizing that time is a strange thing.  It seems impossible that she is almost 11 months, but at the same time it seems like she's grown so much.  So it's been a wild ride so far.  I just wanted to post these pictures of Lily's baby blessing.  She was blessed in September so she was a month old in these pictures.  It was a great day and we were surrounded by family.




















Scheduling and logistical drama aside, this was a perfect day.  Thanks so much to everyone who came to support us and Lily.  We were so glad to have G&G Fairall there, as well as G-pa Hightower.  We also got a surprise visit from Uncle Don and Aunt Debbie. Thanks to Nicole for all the pictures. And thanks to my sweet husband.  It was truly wonderful to see my daughter surrounded by the Priesthood. David gave her a sweeet blessing and I was feeling glad to be a mommy!!

What's Been Going On?

(I just found this post, I made it a long time ago but I never published it! Enjoy!)
Haven't really posted in a while, so here's an update!  (it's a doozy, so I hope you like pictures!)

I had a birthday! (Shout Hooray!)



We went to a puppet show!


Lily was a Candy Corn for Halloween! (I sewed it myself!)


We took Lily to see the Light on Temple Square!

Families Are Forever

4 Month Check-up


We hate shots! Look at that sad face!

Winter Open House at Rio Tinto


Lily learned how to make a mess.

She also perfected the, "Wasn't Me!" face. : )

We took Lily on her first plane trip across the country.

Cozied up with a good book! (That book is actually terrible, no discernible plot whatsoever.)

This is how a daddy gets some Z's in the airport. 

We drove this sweet car.  Made by Uncle Curtis, Owned by Uncle Chris.

Holly got engaged!  Welcome to the family Travis!

Wow!  Tone down the cuteness there sweetheart!  I can't handle it!


Christmas morning! (way too early!)

Presents!







So Sleepy!
Holding her own bottle?!

Girlfriend...


has

some

CUH-RAZY

hair!

Happy New Year!  Lily hated these hats and burst into tears when we put them on. : )





I have the worlds cutest baby!






David turned 30!
And I made Lobster!



Little Cutie Pie started doing push ups!


David got 30 boxes of cereal for his birthday!  Kid loves him some cereal!


All 30 boxes, in order of expiration date.

Turns out they will all be gone before any of them could expire so this wasn't quite necessary.  Who knew 30 boxes of cereal would only last 2 months!


Don't ask why, but David had a mustache themed birthday.



He also got pie, and it was so yummy! If I do say so myself!


We've had a cold, snowy, icy winter.  I found this icicle that is pretty much as big as me!

First attempt at a hair do.



Trying to show a comparison between me as a baby (picture) and Lily (above). Pretty similar actually!

First meal with a spoon, rice cereal!


"Sometimes I like to sleep on my face."












The flash is too bright!

Did I mention she has crazy hair!

And this guy, got a JOB!! Yay!
