A hat with a buckle!

Singing Lily

Lily loves to sing. She often gets the tune and sometimes a few of the words.

Backlog (part 2)

Abby really likes to read stories to Lily. Lily is somewhat obsessed with books, so that works out well.

Backlog (part 1)

We went on a trip to Portland, OR in August to see Uncle Paul, Aunt Lara and Baby Owen. The girls are seasoned air travelers, but this time, Abby found that each seat has its own paper bag puppet. Very exctiting!




Here are both girls loving the swingset near Baby Owen's House. Papa is a good pusher.

First Haircut

When I took Abby to get her haircut before the first day of school, I decided it was time to get Lily her first cut.







Lily was a perfect angel during the haircut, partly because she had just watched Abby safely live through the experience and, mostly, because she spent the entire time trying to open a lollipop wrapper with her teeth. She was very happy when she finally succeeded. I'm pretty sure this was her first piece of hard candy.

New Swingset

Grandpa and Daddy found a used swingset and hauled it to our new house.
