Baby it's cold outside...







Another snowy day in TN...this time it really did snow! Enough for Luke to go outside and actually have a snow ball fight with his daddy. Lillian and I went out for ...oh about three minutes..and then us girlies had to come get warmed up inside. We have about 3inches of snow and now it's sleeting....yippeee! This week was going to be a busy week and now all my plans keep getting canceled. I had two home visits today that were canceled, my mom was going to come up tonight, now she has to wait for tomorrow, and the shower I'm hosting tomorrow is in "limbo" about whether or not it's going to happen. Geez! Well I just wanted to post some pictures of our snow today :) We're suppose to get even more tomorrow...so I'm sure I'll have more pictures soon!



Stay warm!

Lil's dedication dress






















Here are some pictures of Lillian's dedication dress, diaper cover, and shoes. I can't wait to put it all on her. She's going to be beautiful. I will post picures when we have her all dressed up and of her dedication after next weekend :)

New adventures




Lillian will be four months old on the 25th, I can't believe it! She is growing way too fast, already checking out the world. She watches everything Luke does and every once in a while will belly laugh at him, it makes my heart smile to hear her. Today was a new day full of adventures! We have moved to five oz. bottles with her and she still just didn't seem satisfied. So I decided to try spoon feeding her a tablespoon of cereal. I did not think she would like it that much and would probably thrust it out with her tongue but boy was I wrong! She ate the whole tablespoon, kicking and smiling the whole time!


Next adventure was playing in the exersaucer. This toy was Luke's and he loved it. She stayed in there a good five minutes checking things out...although I'm not sure who was more excited about this toy, Luke or Lillian.... :) Lillian probably enjoyed watching Luke play more than she enjoyed looking at the toys.
Pictured is Lillian and Luke playing with the exersaucer, the other one is Luke playing in it at 19 weeks. I thought their profiles looked similar so of course I had to post it :)


We also went shopping today for a dress for Lillian to be dedicated in next Sunday. Man, there is so much out there for girls. The boys sections just look sad after visiting the girls. When I went to Target today to pick up a few things I saw the cutest little blue shirt and black stretch pants for Lillian for next Winter on sale for 3.48 ! A whole outfit for 3.48 !!! So I was thinking I need to check out the boys clothes for Luke...and nothing...absolutely nothing...there was maybe three shirts and they weren't even his size :( So, I bought him a movie instead for five dollars, like he needs another movie, haha!


I'm excited its Friday and am looking forward to the weekend, we'll see what kind of things my little monkeys get into this weekend :)

Sweet Lillian on the move...

Avoiding Laundry







This is becoming a great excuse for me when I want to avoid laundry, Haha!






We had a great weekend. Dee took Luke to his first Monster Truck Jam, which Luke thought was the best thing ever. When we went to church on Sunday he said, " Are we going to ride the elevator and get popcorn? " I was thinking, "What????" but then Dee told me that's what they did when they went to the Truck show,hehe. He makes me laugh!



Saturday night my sister came and wathced the kiddos for me and Dee to have a much needed night out. We went to watch "It's compliated" which was HILARIOUS! I haven't laughed that hard at a movie in a long time. Sunday we went to Church, another great service at World Outreach. After church we went to lunch with Gabby, Harlan, and Logan. We were pretty sure we were going to get kicked out of the Garcia's (Mexcian food...yum) because of our children! I'm still trying to figure out why all the other tables had kids who sat so quietly and colored and my kid was pretty much on top of the table the whole time trying to crash this train he was playing with into Logans :) But regardless it was a lot of fun.



Monday Luke was out of School so we pretty much hung out at the house, Sawyer and Ian got to come play for a bit and he really enjoyed that.



Today I went to "Mostly Mom's" which is a mom's group that meets at our church. It was a great bible study and I enjoyed meeting some other mom's. The leader of the group I was in had has a baby that is exactly one month and one day older than Lillian, a little girl too, so it was nice to have her to chat with while I was there. We were studying Joyce Meyers, "The Confident Woman" it was awesome! So many things we talked about were exactly what I needed to hear.



Well Luke is home from school now so I'm off to see how his day was :)




OKAY, I just went to check on Luke before I posted this and he was in my glider in Lillian's room trying to attach the tubing for my breast pump to him. I said, "um...luke, what are you doing?". He said, "I'm trying to make milk for Lillian"...HAHAHAHAHA, I love my children!

Now you can see where she gets her cute button nose from :) Her eyes look like his in this picture too. Finally there's a picture of me..hmm...maybe Lillian has my fuzzy hair ?That's about it, haha! I promise my blogs won't always be about pictures but for those of you who know me, I do LOVE a good picture :)

Fuzzy Wuzzy

















We've been calling Lillian "Ms. Fuzzy Wuzzy" at home because her hair is coming in more every day and its fuzzier and fuzzier :) It's the cutest thing ! Luke loves to rub it and say " mornin' Lillian, it's your brother." I can't wait to see if it's going to be curly like Luke's. Below is a picture I took of her today with her fuzzy hair, she thinks she's pretty cute...because she is!And next to her is my handsome boy!Luke was 17 weeks old in his pictures and Lillian is 17 weeks old today. God blessed me with some beautiful babies!
