Has it allready been 4 years since I gave birth to my beautiful 8 lb 10 oz baby girl?! Does not seem possible. Seems like it's taken me forever to get to this point in my life, yet, at the same time, it seems to have snuck up on me rather quickly.
Lilly was such a baby. She slept 7 hours straight through the night at only 6 weeks old. Very good eater, slept well, not a whole lot of trouble at all really. Which was such a blessing, since I personally had such a hard time after pregnancy/labor and delivery. Having a difficult baby would have made it all that much worse. Jeremy and I fell head-over-heels in love with our precious baby girl the moment we laid eyes on her. (well, before we even saw her actually, but you get my point). Lilly was our 'Michigan-born' baby. She truly has lived up to her middle name- Joy.
I think it was around 1 and a half or 2 that some of her Daddy's genes and behaviors started to shine through a little more prominent. (yes, I have always said, and will always say, that these qualities are from daddy. ) :D
Lilly's ornery streak has continued to stay with her thru her 4th birthday. She has slowly begun to pass the "baton" over to her brother, but has not quite let go all the way yet.
Lillian is truly a joy and Jeremy and I are so blessed to have her as our daughter. I cannot wait to see what the Lord has in store for her life. I know it will be great.

Happy Birthday sweet Lilly!!!

Happy Birthday to Lilly and happy mother's day to you.
Just something I tell my mom on my birthday.
When was the party? I know the weather got chilly over the weekend.

We actually had Lilly's party on sat, nov 1st, instead of on her actual bday, which was the 8th. And it's a good thing we did!! There was what.....a 20 or 30 degree difference between the weekends! The day of Lillys party, the weather was absolutely WONDERFUL and we all had a great time. :)
