Terrible, I know!

It's obviously been quite a while since I've updated here. My mom asked me just the other day if I write down some of the stuff that Lilian says and does...and I really need to. She then told me about looking at a "deer book" with Lilian. Lilian called the antlers, "Reindeer sticks". Too cute. Lilian is always reminding us to be careful and not hit the baby deers while we are driving. She is all the time saying cute things...here's what she's up to now:

Not really a saying, but she gets all excited about snow. She was quite disappointed to see the snowman had melted but was confident that daddy would build her another one. We are on a snow day right now (why I have time to update a little)

She's excited about Little Sister coming along. We talk about her often and I know Lilian will be thrilled to have someone else around. I predict a crash course in sharing.

We had a fabulous Christmas with lots of fun and presents. She made me feel giddy again. You know, that feeling you had when you were a kid, yeah, felt it again with her. I'm really enjoying our family right now. Looking forward to it being complete.

I guess I'll stop here and give you all some pics...that's usually everyone's favorite anyway.

I did not teach her how to do this...must be genetic.

What Santa Claus brought

pure unadulterated joy
