Snow days

Here are some pics from our snow days yesterday and today.

"Look at all the snow!"

"I'm wearing overalls!"

"Hi Mommy!"

Walking!

Today it finally happened. Lily took her first, tentative, steps on her own. We are no where near walking steadily yet, but we are on the move!

The Best Toys...

Are often not toys at all. Lily had a ball tonight twirling the desk chair. Don't worry, Sarah was sitting right next to her out of the frame :)

Lily climbs steps

Well, we have a new skill - steps! Up and down! Over, and over, and over again.

Here are a still:

Let Her Eat Cake

After Lily's birthday party on Saturday, she had part of her little cake left. For her birthday dinner we went with Aunt Rachel to have dinner with Grandma Harriet and Grandpa Steve at Aunt Kathy and Uncle Bill's house. Lily enjoyed playing with the cake and eating the icing. Watch for yourself!

Today is Lily's First Birthday!

Today is Lily's first birthday!! Aunt Rachel helped me take this picture this morning.

"I am 1 year old today!"

As many of you know, Lily is an excellent dancer. She loves dancing to the music on her new car from Papa J. Rachel and I thought her shoulder action was too cute not to share. Sorry I forgot that movie mode can't be rotated. Just turn your head to the left. :)

First Birthday Party

Lily's first birthday party was this past weekend and our family came in from out of town to help Lily celebrate.

"Hi Ryan, let's play with the music table together"

The cake was imported from the former Kaufmann's (now Macy's) bakery in Pittsburgh!

Yummy~!!

"Thank you Mommy and Daddy for helping me blow out my candles"

"This cake looks good!"

"It is good!"

"Practicing unwrapping presents at Hanukkah has made me an expert!"
