Little Blue Birds




and graceful affection.

Excited for Halloween...

too excited to save the costume for Sunday.

Sweetest of Pigtails and Tendrils


Strolling in the Rain

Cozy little ladies. Proud Daddys. Happy Mamas.

Chi chi chi, Le le le!


Nana, Papa and Lily watched and cheered as the miners safely exited the mine, one by one.

Afternoons with Nana and Papa


When Lily wakes up from her nap at Nana and Papa's, she climbs into her "special chair." There she sits peacefully with her arm around Baba, gazing out of the window, for an unknown amount of time (we're guessing about ten or fifteen minutes). When she feels ready, she rings her "special bell" and Nana and Papa eagerly tiptoe in to cozy up with her and to read stories. What a sweet little routine.

My Cuties...




Auntie Hilary and Uncle Josh's wedding- Lake Chalet in Oakland, September 2010

Lily and her New Hot Rod!




Lily got a motorcyle from her little friend, Jordan, this past weekend. Jordan is just a couple of years older (and wiser) and when she outgrows her super cool goodies, she often passes them on to a super excited Lily. Because Lily is so fond of hats, the transition to a helmet was a breeze!

Bangs
















A little comb comb here, a snip snip there. I cannot say that either one of us knows what we are doing..but we sure do enjoy ourselves while we do it.

Lily meets her new cousin, Karoline!




Lily and Karoline met this past weekend. Karoline is Uncle Josh's sweet little niece. The two ladies were the flower girls in Auntie's wonderful wedding. They became the best of friends instantly upon their introduction. Lily is sad that Karoline had to return home to South Carolina, though she is super excited to hopefully connect with Karoline using Mama's new video camera.

Lily gets her first finger puppet from cousin Jojo!
