Lily (Briefly) Stands for the First Time

Friday, March 20, 2009

Lily turned one a week ago...we can't believe how much she's grown up! She can stand up for a few moments without holding onto anything and likes to walk by pushing a toy or holding our hands. Her birthday party was lots of fun!

Grandma Amy made beautiful lemon cakes

At first Lily didn't know what to do with the cake, but her cousins helped her out and showed her it was, indeed, food.

Once she got the hang of it, she dug in and demolished the cake.

Pretty in her party dress

Lily opened presents and played with family

Fun at the Park

The first nice sunny day we had this week, Lily and I walked to Foster Park to play. Lily loved to get outside and try swinging for the first time. We're waiting out the rain, eager for another warm spring day!

Lily at 11 Months

Lily is almost a year old and is now cruising around by holding onto furniture for balance. She's gotten a lot better at eating and tries to feed herself with a spoon. She will also share and feed mama her favorite snack, Puffs. She's started to get excited about socializing and playing with other children. She claps, waves her arms around, and throws her head back when she's excited - very cute!
