It's time for a life lately post. Otherwise known as "a bunch of random pictures because I can't think of a neat way to tie them all together". So here's to a bit of total randomness.
Lily has a new favorite phrase: "I do it all myself".
I hear this many, many times each day. I try to let Lily do as many things by herself as I can. Or, at least, as time allows. She loves to help and loves to do all sorts of things by herself. She is going to be one independent little girl!
This day as we were heading to school, she zipped her vest herself. She got the biggest smile on her face and gave me a huge hug.
When allowing her to do things herself, I have to be OK with things not exactly right. See the shoes? She picked those out, with the white socks and put them on herself. On the wrong feet. I left them like that because, once again, she was happy with herself for doing it.
A few days ago, Lily went to a birthday party. I was excited because it was cold and she got to wear this beautiful coat she received last year.
All bundled up and ready to go
Queen Elsa made a visit to the party and Lily got her first face painting!
Look at my butterfly, Mommy
A couple days before the party, we went shopping for a present. A few quick pics before heading out.
It was raining when we went so all the carts at the store were wet. Michael and I decided to let Lily walk while we shopped. She was in heaven - touching everything along the way!
Double Bubble anyone??
Lily's Daddy decided to go "old school" with cartoons and had Lily watching some Bugs Bunny one day.
All comfy and cozy
Zoned out - I think she liked it!!
Before school the other day:
Love this girl so very much
My favorite view the other day:
Enjoying some snuggle time and iPad time with her Daddy.
This little girl loves her some Daddy time and the feeling is mutual!
That's our life lately.
And a great life it is!
