Daily Lily - Sept. 24
Lily is 14 months old! I would say a little blurb about how time flies and she is getting so big, but we all know that already! She is still growing and thriving, like the little flower that she is. At her 1 year check up she was 18lbs and a little over 30 inches long. Which puts her in 15th percentile weight and 70th percentile height. Long, lean and FULL of energy! She keeps Jeff and I on our toes.
So, I bet you are wondering what Lily has been up to these days.....we recently took a road trip to Florida to visit some of our family. We took 10 days and drove first to Charleston, SC for some fun with just our little family, then we went to Ocala, Hudson, Tampa, then Bradenton. It was a long trip and a LOT of miles on the car, but Lily was a trooper.
Lily met, my mother, my aunt and two cousins, my sister and my two nieces, her great grandpa Bill and great grandma Sherri. She also visited with her GG (great grandma Ellie) and Grand Pap (great grandpa Bob), Uncle Brett and Aunt Bobbi.
She met lots of new people, did just GREAT and loved ALL the attention.

Jeff and I took Lily to Busch Gardens. She LOVED IT! They had a whole Sesame Street Section there. Lily is a HUGE fan of Sesame Street, Elmo in particular. We thought she would be frightened of all of the people in the costumes, but she was actually REALLY excited and happy to see them. We took her to the show "A is for Africa" which featured Elmo, Grover, Cookie Monster and a few other characters....She was so happy! Clapping, dancing, laughing and smiling the whole time.
There was also a whole Safari/wild life park at Busch Gardens and Lily REALLY enjoyed the Safari Train that went around to see all of the animals.
We then drove to Bradenton to visit with Bill and Sherri. We had a lovely time. Lily LOVED walking on the beach with Sherri.

It really was an amazing vacation spent with family. Lily had a GREAT time.

Daily Lily - Aug. 12
We have been so busy lately! I have so much to catch you all up on. Lily has been extremely sick with croup and a double ear infection. She is doing much better now, but as you can guess, this Mama has been working OVERTIME!
Recently, we took our first family vacation to the beach. Lily was not at all impressed with the sand at all, but LOVED the pool and the ocean. She got to spend a lot of quality time with her dad, just the two of them, and I was able to relax a bit. We did not take many pictures....we were too busy having fun!
Lily LOVED the Ripley's Aquarium...the tanks were REALLY impressive.
We have also been doing a lot of learning at home. I do a loose curriculum that consist of a program call "A letter a week" and I add in fun sensory, motor, and music activities. Lily is learning a lot and really seems to enjoy it.
Here is a picture of our art project with the color green. I put a little green food coloring in vanilla frosting and let Lily "paint" with it. She LOVED it.
Lily can no point to and recognize two colors (red and green) identify about 10 different objects and animals in books and pictures, knows 15 signs in sign language and can say a hand full of words. She is growing SO FAST!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LILY!!!
Today is Lily's First birthday!!!! The year has one by SO fast. SO FAST!
To celebrate we took Lily to the zoo, then to lunch and to Rita's for Frozen custard. We think she had a great day! We are so blessed to have this amazing little girl in our life. I could say SO MUCH more, but I will let the pictures speak for me. I will have a "One year as a mama" blog post later.
