Another visit with Grampy..

On Saturday Lillian and I went for a visit with Great Grampy.

She was THRILLED to be able to play with the village all by herself! She could put the cars anywhere she wanted to and could boing the lamp post all she wanted. Lil was pleased as punch!! Then we went for a walk down the hall, to visit the puppy statue that she loves. Lil loves to talk to and pat the little doggie. Next we decided to go take a ride to the Budwieser plant and see the Clydesdale horses. Both Lil and Grampy really enjoyed looking at them, and of course we had to have a photo shoot.

It was a GREAT afternoon! I think everyone had fun!!

Lil Miss Plaistow

Every year at the beginning of summer, Plaistow has a "fair" on the town green, they have games, contests and tables filled with goodies to buy. Last year we entered Lillian into the Baby contest and to our surprise, she won! So this year she had to go back to defend her title! This year, although the competition was tough, she still won first place! She won a beautiful ribbon and a gift card to Walmart!! Great job Lil!!

To the left is the pic of last years win, to the right is this years pic with the big Miss Plaistow!

Look how much we've grown!

The picture to the left is Ryan and Lil on Rys
first day of Kindergarten. Ryan looked so little, and Lillian was bald as bald can be, and could barely sit up by herself. The picture to the right is Ryan and Lil on the last day of school. Look at the difference!! Lilly has a ton of hair, Ryan has grown a few inches. Bean is now walking too! Just a couple months time, and the differences are amazing!! My goal is to do this for every year, lets hope I remember!!

I Love Music!

Lilly got a hold of Ryans Ipod last weekend, it has quickly become her new best friend! This child loves music more than anyone I have ever seen. So when she realized what the ipod was, she was in heaven!! Lillian was rocking out all weekend!!

Nothing Like it...

So because Dan has been having a bit of overtime I have been spending a lot of time with the kids by myself. Last night it was a tubby night..So Lillian gets in, and is splashing away. She LOVES the new foamy soap. Then Ryan gets in and also LOVES his new foamy soap. So I spray them both with the colored foamy soap. Ryan decides to put his foam on his chin, to make a beard. He looks at Lilly with the blue foamy beard and says "Hellooooo" Lilly looks at him, with a little smirk on her face and says, "HI!" Then they both crack up into the biggest phony laughing fit I have ever heard!! This went on for several minutes. It was SO cute! They are just growing so fast into wonderful little kids. They are best buddies most of the time and fight sometimes. Lilly is coming out with new words all the time. Just yesterday she was angry because Ryan was in her way of the door, and she wanted to get out. She started screaming/crying at him. So I said, "Lillian Grace! say excuse me!!" And she came back with "cuse eeee" Although her words aren't always correct, she is doing a great job trying!! :)

A Little Pool Time..in Pics

Could she be??

You think she could be a doctor? She wore the stethescope all day on Saturday! She looks like a natural, don't you think??
Ok, maybe this isn't the right way to use this??
