We Love our Lily!

The past few weeks have been crazy in our home. The bright spot in it all is Lily! She smiles and you melt! She is full of hugs and kisses and shares them every day! My favorite new thing of hers is that she comes up to us and says, "hi" and then gives us loves. She does this all day long and I love it every time she does! She also points to any picture of TJ and says, "dada" with a huge smile! Around 3 every day she starts to get excited for dad to come home, even though it isn't for 3 more hours! When he walks in the door he gets the biggest smile and hug! She already has him wrapped around her finger! We feel so blessed that she is a part of our family. She is such a great little girl!
Since we live away from family, I try really hard to share what Lily is doing so those who care can keep up with the changes! Lately Lily is becoming so independent. Sometimes this is a little hard, but it is also very fun to see her learn new things and grow up. She is almost pro at eating with her spoon and fork. She climbs on everything. She picks up her toys when asked and sometimes without being asked. She is getting really good at puzzles. She still continues to love to read. Her new thing is to read up to the Kitchen table. She takes her books over to the table, then climbs up all by herself and sits and reads until her story is finished. I hope you enjoy a few pictures of our cute little Lily!

Lily is also into watching Disney movies. She watches about 45 minutes at a time. The other day she decided that she wanted to watch the movie laying down on the couch. I thought it was super cute so I included the picture!
