Easter Sunday

 Easter morning after breakfast, we pulled out the Easter baskets.  In addition to her basket, I made these Surprise Eggs seen here. You basically use real eggshells and fill them with candy.  Lilly figured it out pretty quickly, smashing one in her hand by squeezing it too hard. After that she decided to just rip the paper off and pour the candy out the hole.

 Lilly also got some bubbles in her basket. She loves them and has gotten quite good at saying "bubbas".

Next she enjoyed opening her giant egg from Bestemor and Bestefar.

Her mouth filled with a cookie.

She even found a new use for the egg.

Sorry this picture is blurry but it was the only one showing how happy she was when she found the bunny inside.  She calls him "Money".  She is actually trying to say "bunny" but now we just call him Money the Bunny.

 Lilly, our cute little Egg Head.

And here is a video from earlier in the week with Lilly opening her Easter package from Grandma and Grandpa.  It's a little long but watch it if you like.

Egg Hunt

 Saturday, we decided to give Lilly her own Easter Egg Hunt at the little playground in our apartment complex.

Getting Ready to go.

Walking to the playground.

Daddy giving Lilly a lift (cause she is easily distractable and slow when outside)

Lilly found her first egg.

Yeah for eggs!

Opening them all, checking for candy. (Even though I only put candy in one of them.)

 

Couch Climbing

Lilly is finally tall enough to climb onto the couch. Now we can no longer hide things there as Christian learned when he walked into the room to find Lilly with his earbuds in her mouth. They no longer work.



Though we also don't need to help her everytime she wants "upf" on the couch now.

Lilly the Drummer

We pulled out the Guitar Hero drums a couple weeks ago and Lilly automatically knew what to do with them. Funny, since we haven't played them in probably close to a year. I guess she was born to rock.

When Lilly Wakes Up...

this happens. We decided to record Lilly after she wakes up. She usually jumps and bounces around her crib like a maniac. However, this morning was different.


 

Her face is so funny/sad that I can't help but laugh every time I see this video.

Smile...

What a Big Head You Have...

Monday afternoon Lilly and I headed to her 15 month checkup. Only a month late, but who is really counting.  While there I learned 2 things. First, Lilly has a ginormous head. Second, a pink rattle can cure all your problems.

According to the doctor Lilly is 25% for weight (22 lbs), 60% for height (didn't catch the number), and over 100% for her head size. Good job Lilly.

After her 3 shots in her chubby little thighs, it seemed as if the world might be ending. Until a small pink rattle with a smiley face came to the rescue. She played with it ALL day long.

 The end.

First Pedicure

I couldn't help myself. Aren't those the cutest toes you've ever seen?
