Lillian's New Slippers

I got Lillian some slippers while I was at Target the other day and she loved them! She walked and walked in them for the first 20 minutes or so. Then she realized she could take them off and they haven't both spent more than 15 seconds on her feet since. As soon as you put them on she pulls them off and kisses them (aka eats their faces).  She still loves them though!

Lillian gives kisses

Lillian gives kisses to everyone now as she heads off to bed. She laughs and laughs when she gets close to Simon though, so he usually just gets giggles. Most of the time kisses are actually licks, but there is a certain charm to them just the same. She gives kisses to her baby doll all the time and will often bring her over to us to help shhhh, rock and pat and while we do that she kisses the baby. 

Lillian stacking blocks.

Lillian and I were stacking blocks and then I realized that I hadn't posted on the blog about it so I pulled out my phone and found that she really didn't want to stack blocks for the camera (thus the first video). I put the camera away but close by and then when she started stacking blocks again I gave it another try. 

Thanksgiving 2014

We had a small Thanksgiving this year, but fun just the same!

Morning snuggles!

Working out! Lillian is 20 lbs and Simon 30 lbs. I was tired after this!

Relaxed Thanksgiving Meal.

Saturday at RoscoeBooks

We got a local bookstore! I'm so excited! I dragged the kids, Alan and Jenn (who was visiting) out to their grand opening. It was a fun day and we all got new books!

First we checked out the digger at the end of our street.

At RoscoeBooks, Jenn and Simon are reading on the bench.

Lillian is so excited!

Lillian - all over the place.

Things Lillian knows (13 Month)

After she turned a year I figured I would stop the monthly updates on Lillian, but I was so amazed at how much she learned this month and how much she knows in general that I couldn't resist one more monthly post.

1. Lillian has 15 signs: More, all done, hungry, banana, clean (aka wash hands), drink, banana, diaper, book, milk, hot (blows on thing), blows kiss, waves, please and thank you.
2. She has 10 words: Hi, Mama, Dada, shoes, socks, Go, Si (for Simon), See (for Jessie), Ph (for up) and of course dog.
