Hot Tubbing in the Rain

Lillian loves to go swimming in our hot tub (we keep the temp at 99). She really wanted to hot tub last night. Lucky for her she has a dad willing to do crazy things in the wet and cold weather.

Daisy's first few days

Frances, Gerrilyn and Nana Mitzi were Daisy's first visitors. The girls were very excited to meet their new little sister. This is a picture of Frances holding Daisy. The first blog post showed Gerrilyn with Daisy.

Lillian came to meet her new baby sister on Saturday. We had prepared her as much as we could about becoming a big sister but were not sure what she would think. She was so excited to see the 'baby' when she came into the hospital room.
After spending a few minutes looking at her sister, holding her sister and then getting a big hug from her mom she was ready to explore. She sure enjoyed the big window seat in my hospital room.
Sunday we headed home from the hospital. It was nice to get home and spend time with everyone. Daisy was happy to be home.

MY FIRST BATH

Paul and Lillian gave Daisy her fist bath at home. Lillian was excited to be able to help. She is doing great transitioning into being a big sister.

Halloween 2011

Hope everyone had a great Halloween holiday. Here are a few pictures from our Halloween evening. The girls headed out for the evening trick-or-treating with a group of friends. Lillian headed to a select few houses, having a great time lugging her bucket around.


Had to include the back view with her tail. Monkey's are about Lillian's favorite thing. She was very excited to be dressed up like one. 


The group of trick-or-treating friends who were nice enough to take a quick break for a picture with Lillian.

Pumpkin Carving

Family night of pumpkin carving fun!








 Gerrilyn's masterpiece
 Frances' carving creation
Paul and Lillian's bark-a-likes (per Paul these thick warty pumpkins were like carving a tree)!
