Happy Easter everyone! We had a great weekend full of visitors, good eating, and a trip to the aquarium. Aunt Catie and Andy were here for a quick one night visit, and Lillie was in heaven! On Easter morning, she woke up to find that the Easter Bunny hid eggs all around the living room, and she found every one of them (and all the goodies inside them). Afterwards, the gang headed to the Shedd Aquarium to see some cool fish and then back home for Easter lunch. In addition to all the Easter excitement, we had a big milestone happen on Friday. Our big girl used her potty for the first time! I know, some of you without kids might be a little turned off by this topic, but seeing that pee in the potty was one of the coolest things I've ever seen her do. (I'll spare you all the pictures we took of that milestone.) It hasn't happened again, but it will and we're patient...go Lillie!

Have You Heard the News?

I'm going to be a big sister! Mom and Dad say the new baby will be here around September 30. I can't wait to be the best big sister EVER! As I learn to start sharing, I will open my blog to the whole family. I hope you enjoy the new look, a lot is changing with the new baby on its way. Make a note of the new blog address, but don't worry - if you go to the old one, you'll be automatically sent here.

Lillie is Totally Not Pc

Under Construction

It's been a long time since the last post, but please be patient! Lillie's blog is undergoing a facelift and there's exciting stuff to come! Check back soon.

Let the healing begin

Breaking News

Lillie's got a wrist fracture. Outlook is good, but she's in a half cast. We're assured that she won't lose her piano skills.

Back at Home

Lillie has started to enjoy sitting on anything that is just her size. She's found the desk a fun place to hang out and color. Thanks to Grandpa Murphy for carrying this heavy desk all the way home when he was kindergarten...saving it from a lifetime in the dump. I remember playing with this when I was little, and now Lillie is giving it some TLC too.

We're getting ready for a long weekend trip to Miami. Goodbye cold weather and snow...bring on the sun! Okay, even if it is supposed to rain our first couple of days there, bring on the warm weather!
