Mmmmm......cake!

I know these are a little late but here are some pictures from Lily's Birthday. Apparently I am a mean mom because I got Lily a white cupcake with light pink frosting instead of chocolate.









And, right after this picture she threw the rest of the cupcake on the floor. I guess she wanted to share some with Buddy too.

Mommy's Little Helper

One of Lily's favorite things is to "help" me with the laundry. Her idea of helping however is to pull all of the clean clothes out of the laundry basket and throw them on the floor.

Lily wears no pants

As you may have noticed from the pictures I've posted in my blog Lily is not wearing pants. In the beginning of April I just got to the point where I couldn't stand the stinky diapers anymore so I decided to try cloth diapers. It has been 4 weeks since I switched and I am loving it! Even Colin will change them. There have been a lot of changes in the cloth diaper world since my mom used them on my brother and I but somethings are still the same. There are a few different types and some work just like disposable diapers, so easy. Anyways, Lily doesn't wear pants a lot around the house because with the cloth diapers I either don't even bother to put a cover on her so I know when she is wet or I put wool or fleece over the diaper that keeps moisture in the diaper and stays dry on the outside.

Lily's First 1st Birthday Present

Lily turns 1 next Thursday (May 8th) and this is her present from Uncle Drew. We let her open it a little early. She loves it! She will ride around on it all by herself, pushing herself back and forth across the living room. Maybe next year uncle Drew could spring for a present that has a volume control button.

Lily's thinking spot

Everyone says that there is no need to get gifts for children because all they play with is the box. Well Lily doesn't even need boxes, she is happy with the dog crate. Every day at least once a day she climbs into Buddy's crate and brings a toy or book with her and will sit and play happily in there for at least 15 min. At first I thought it wasn't a good idea and kept getting her out but she would just go right back in.

Day One

I decided to jump on the band wagon so everyone can see how Lily and I spend all of our free time during the day. Stay tuned for some fun and exciting posts.
