Lillian's first haircut (and William got one too)

Before
During AfterWilliam


Lillian's first haircut was Saturday, September 26th. She did really well with it... and gosh is she cute :o)

Lillian is ONE!

Happy birthday to our beautiful little girl! Lillian, you are everything a mommy could want in a daughter. I'm absolutely sure no sweeter baby could ever exist(William is pretty close though). Your sweet smile and cute little giggle... the way you squeal when you spot some sweets across the kitchen... the way you give your daddy kisses.... You are sunshine and happiness and WE LOVE YOU!

Frank McCourt - RIP

I remember reading only one book where upon finishing it, I turned right back to the front page and started over. Angela's Ashes is that good. Later I read 'Tis and Teacher Man and liked them almost as well. How he dealt with so many tragedies and difficulties I can't even imagine, and all with such humor and strength. Today is a sad day for sure. Rest in peace Mr. McCourt. You will be missed.

Mother's Day

We had a great Mother's Day (I think my posts are getting out of order!) at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Our friend Roy was playing music and it was a beautiful day~ Thought I'd put a few pictures here. After we got home I got to be lazy and Josh cooked a delicious dinner :o)

Beautiful Bride

Our friends Mikayla and Heath got married yesterday. Doesn't she make the most beautiful bride! Congratulations Stovers!

down teeth

It's about time I posted a picture of Lillian and her down teeth. William says "Lillian has down teeth but she doesn't have any up teeth". He is anxious for them to come in so he can share more food with her.
