BIG updates!!!!

So this weekend was a busy one. Tara and Jon got married and we celebrated all weekend long!!! It was easily the most beautiful wedding I have ever been too. We are so excited for what God has planned for Jon and Tara. We can't wait for them to come back from their honeymoon. On Sunday our friend Maya was baptized. She was so cute.

Lily went for her 4 month check-up on Monday. It went so well, except for her vaccinations...she still makes the craziest sounds when she gets them. She is now 12 lbs 6.5 oz (25%) 24 in (25%) and her head is still in the 50%. I can't believe how fast she is growing. It makes me sad in a way that she is doing all these new things like playing with some toys, rolling over and eating rice cereal!!! We tried it this morning for the first time and it went so well. I thought I would wait until she was like 5 months, but we were just so excited to try it. Here are a few pictures from our crazy weekend.

Big Deals in our house!!!

So in the past week our family has experienced some pretty big things!!! Bob turned 30 last Thursday and we celebrated with friends. It was also are our friend Adrienne's 30th birthday as well so I attempted to make a cake. It did not turn out so well. I had great aspirations for this cake but instead I ended up buying one from the store. But Bob had a great birthday anyways, and took pictures of the "beautiful" cake. Clearly I need a little more practice with the writing.




This past weekend we took Lily to her first jr. high retreat to Laurelville. She had a great time, and was sooo good. Being at a camp with a couple hundred jr. high students was a new experience for her. Lucky for Bob and I there was no shortage of people wanting to hold her. Lily also experienced some first yesterday. She rolled over for the first time. Bob and I were so excited that we started clapping which scared her and she began to cry. We haven't gotten her to do it again, but we know that she will. We even tried to get it on video but for now have only managed to get her while she is crying. It was really awesome though. She also discovered a new toy that she likes. It's so crazy to see her actually playing with things and reaching out to grab them.

1st Halloween

Lily's first Halloween can be summed up in one word....sleeping. Cause that is all she did for Halloween. We dressed her up and took her out to dinner with some church friends and she just slept. But she looked cute anyhow. I thought she'd make a cute reindeer, red nose and all.
