She's 1!

My little Lily turned one on May 29th. I can't believe it, I really can't. We had a party for her complete with an all pink cake. It took her a minute, but she got it.


She cried when everyone sang to her, but she soon got the hang of it:)


You have to have a first birthday dress (and you better believe I had fun looking for it.) She looked so cute in it, especially when she crawled.


Mommy and Lily at her party. I have loved having a little girl. She is so very special!


So stinkin cute!



I am so grateful that we were given this little girl. We love her so much. I can't believe how well she has fit into out family. What a little light she is in our lives. She has always been the best baby, though a little attitude is peaking through:) Her brother's absolutely adore her. When she cries they both run to her rescue. Jack loves to tell her that she is his pretty girl. He told me tonight, "Lily's eyes are brighter than all the stars in the sky!" Kind of crazy, but he really loves her;) He always talks about how happy he is that Heavenly Father sent her to us, and I am too. Ben loves to go in and get her when she wakes up. He says, "G-mooring!" and then has to give her a big hug. Lily loves to wrestle with her brothers and dad. It worries me a little, but she makes up for it when she tries to feed her doll her bottle. She loves to be sung to and rocked at night. She just looks at me, and I know she knows so much more than I do. She is such a funny little thing! She loves to raise her hands high in the air and then fall on her face laughing. We all laugh back and that makes her do it over and over again. She is gorgeous! I can't tell you how many people comment on her. Now, I know I'm biased, but she takes my breath away:) We love you you little Lillian, Lillian Grace, Lily Bean, Lily, Lil, Pretty Girl, Yee Yee, Miss Lily, Miss Thing, and Girlfriend!
