Erin and Mark's Wedding Shower

Last weekend, Lilly and I flew out to the Boston area to visit my Aunt Beth and family and go to Erin and Mark's wedding shower. It was a very fun weekend and the shower was really nice. I barely saw Lilly for the weekend since she was so taken with Anne and Jack (cousins) and played the entire weekend with them.

Happy Flag Day

Happy Flag Day (a few days late). We made star cookies to celebrate (and to satisfy my sweet tooth). They were super yummy, even with the 8 tons of frosting Lilly ended up putting on them.



Here's Lilly in the previous day in the same dress (it is her current favoite dress- luckily it is cute and not covered with some annoying cartoon character or princess). If you hadn't noticed she is also wearing the dress in the previous post at the lake. That is the third day in a row I let her wear it. I finally had to get it off of her to wash it.

Clear Lake; Fremont, IN

My friend, Cyndi (from college) invited us to her family's lake condo on Clear Lake this week. We had a great time. Lilly was more excited to play with their dog, Bella, than Kayla (who is Cyndi and Mark's super cute one year old daughter). Here are some pictures:

Lilly in the water with Bella. She didn't have her swimsuit on, so I just tucked her dress into her bloomers, so it looks a little funny: She was soaked through anyway by the time she got out of the water. In this picture she is demanding Bella drop the ball so she can throw it 1/2 a foot for Bella to get it:


The next day (which was super sunny, but also SUPER windy):





We also took a boat ride, during which Lilly kept yelling for Cyndi to drive faster and go over higher bumps. Lilly had no fear this weekend, which is new for her!

Visiting Erin in Florida

This past weekend, I took Lilly to visit Erin in FL. We had a blast. We went to Disney World and just had a great time. Between us, I think Erin and I took about 100 pictures, so I had to pick and choose what to post here. Lilly is so darn cute in them, though, that I just had to put a lot up.

Lilly sleeping with Pluto (which actually belongs to Uncle Mark, but Lilly sneaked out of her room at naptime and ended up with it)


petting the horse in Celebration (where we went everyday to eat ice cream at Kilwin's...yum!)


Lilly and her "bright red" nails (her current favorite color)


On the carousel (this was at the end of the day, so we are super tired and super sweaty)


three fun girls!







Love, love, love Lilly's expression in this one:


Lilly and Aunt Erin waiting for breakfast


At the character breakfast (Lilly didn't sit correctly in her chair once during this and was SO excited to see the Little Einstein characters. She did, however, polish off 3 mickey mouse waffles)


At the "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" play set area (probably Lilly's most favorite thing aside from the character breakfast and Aunt Erin, of course!):
