Swimming Lessons

Lily began swim lessons a couple of weeks ago. She has been a little scared of the water, but is warming up to splashing, blowing bubbles (which often involves licking the water), and kicking her legs.


She is also taking the class with her friend Ryan, so that makes it even more fun!

Where is Grandpa's nose?

Lily is getting very good at identifying her body parts. She can point to her ears, tongue, teeth, head, tummy, toes... and blink her eyes. She can also point to other people's body parts when asked.

"Here is Grandpa's nose!"

"Here is Grandpa's ear!"

Mother's Day

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit for Mother's Day weekend. We had a wonderful visit!

"I love the park!"

"Watch me go down the tube."

"Is anyone going to come with me?"

The Kitchen Dance

For those of you who are not familiar with Lily's musical ability, she loves to dance (she is probably the best dancer in her class at daycare). Tonight, she was "cooking" in her kitchen and shaking her booty to the kitchen sounds. Enjoy!

Splashy splashy in the soup!

Party at Mary Kay's

On Friday before Lily got her new crocs in the mail, she came with me to a party at my coworkers house. Once she got comfortable, Lily roamed around the backyard, had some snacks, showed off her vocabulary to my coworkers, and admired (and picked) the azaleas. Thanks to Ilyssa for snapping this picture of Lily enjoying a chicken wing with her cell phone.

"I love chicken."

New Shoes (Crocs)!

Lily got new shoes today. She got purple Crocs! So far, she really likes them, especially sticking her fingers in the holes on top of the shoes.

"Ooh! My shoes have holes in the top and I can stick my fingers in them!"

"Thank you for the shoes Mommy and Daddy"
