 |
| Our little southern Belle out on a walk. |
 |
| Lilly has started flashing her smile. It can be hard to catch on camera but PJ is pretty good at catching them. |
 |
| Lilly makes some funny faces. Especially when she's startled. |
 |
| And then there's this face. |
 |
| We brought out some of Wendy's old toys to see if Lilly would be interested in playing with them yet. |
 |
| Wendy has not given Lilly much of an opportunity. |
 |
| While out on one of our walks. Boise can be green and lush! |
 |
| Big smile! |
 |
| So pretty. |
 |
| Wendy just loves her daddy! |
 |
| Wendy also likes to climb in her closet. |
 |
| PJ drinks diet coke about every day so Wendy always asks for some. PJ put some water in an empty diet coke can so Wendy could feel like she was drinking like daddy. |
 |
| Bubbles! Ever since I pointed out to Wendy that Lilly blows bubbles, Wendy tries to pop them. |
 |
| Wendy got her own chair! Behind her is Lilly's bouncer which Wendy likes to crawl into. We have to remind her she has her own big girl chair and that only babies sit in the bouncer. |
 |
| One day, Wendy was not listening. So we put Lilly in the big girl chair to see if Wendy would comply. Nope! Wendy was happy to be in the baby bouncer! |
 |
| Wendy and I have been spending more time at home so one day I decided to paint her nails. She then wanted me to try every color on her nails. |
 |
| Lilly stays easy going and somewhat serious besides her smiles right when she wakes up. I think she's just happy to be around us. |
 |
| One day Wendy was putting balls down her shirt. |
 |
| I'm not really sure what she wanted to come of it... |
 |
| She also thought these ear phones were pretty neat. |
 |
| Pop sent a bubble puppy for Wendy to play with in bath time. She loves it! |
 |
| Another silly face of Lilly's. |
 |
| Our two girls! |
 |
| Wendy was smelling the candle... |
 |
| And then got soot on her face. |
 |
| Not one to pose for pictures anymore. |
 |
| Trying on Daddy's shoes! |
 |
| I bought Wendy these leggings and she loved the sparkles. When I get her dressed and PJ is here, I tell her to go show daddy. She was so proud of these pants, she ran out of her room yelling for daddy but he had already left to go to work. So I told her we would take a picture to send to daddy. She was so excited! |
 |
| It has started to cool off but on one particularly warm afternoon, Wendy got to play with some water toys outside. |
 |
| She made sure to dump all the water on herself multiple times. |
 |
| This girl is always eating! |
 |
| Playing in Lilly's toy again. |
 |
| Both girls kind of smiling together... |
 |
| Then Wendy stopped once she saw what I was doing. |
 |
| Wendy has started to lay down when she watches TV. I guess I'm making her in to a couch potato! |
 |
| Eating eating eating. |
 |
| Lilly in a cute onsie Pop sent. "Up from my nap and ready to party" |
 |
| Can you sense the exhaustion? |
 |
| Wendy let me take a picture of the flower in her hair once we turned the camera around and she could see herself. |
 |
| Lilly after she received her first round of vaccines. She cried at the office when they were administered, and then stayed calm pretty much the rest of the day. |
 |
| Grandma Kim was able to visit and got Wendy these neat Elmo slippers! |
 |
| And this cool Elmo toy. Baxter was pretty excited about it. |
 |
| Wendy loves it! |
 |
| Her new best friend. |
 |
| Lilly caught sleeping. |
 |
| This is where Lilly has spent the last two months of her life. In a bassinet in our Master bath. |
 |
| We are all much happier now that she has her own room! |
 |
| We're getting into the swing of things and Lilly seems to be fitting right in! |
 |
| Grandma Kim playing with Wendy at the park! |
 |
| We had taken a morning walk by the river to this park and it was a little chilly. Wendy didn't seem to mind once we made it to the park though! |
 |
| Lilly decided to wake up and join in the fun too. |
 |
| Look at that face! |
 |
| We also had the opportunity for PJ to give Lilly a baby blessing when my mom was here. |
 |
| The best picture I could get of Wendy in her Sunday best. |
 |
| Until she can see herself of course! |
 |
| The end picture we show everyone ... |
 |
| What it's really like getting a picture with a toddler! |
 |
| Oh, Wendy. |
 |
| Lilly is in the same blessing dress her neice wore 6 years ago and that Wendy wore for her blessing. |
The words of the blessing:
Dear Heavenly Father,
According to the Melchizedek Priesthood which we hold, we gather around this child and give her a name and a blessing. The name by which she will be known in the records of the church is Lilly Anne Mitchell.
At this time Lilly, we bless you that you will have all of the love and support and experiences which you need in order to make all the covenants your Heavenly Father has extended unto you at the temple. We bless you that you will have the strength to withstand all of the temptations which you will face and you will feel Heavenly Father's love throughout your life- through all of the good and bad times. We bless you with intelligence and also with a desire to share the Gospel with all of those who you know and care about. We say this in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
