Piggy Tails

After months of waiting, Lily's hair is finally long enough for little piggy tails! Yes, they are tiny and they do stick straight out (like Pippy Longstocking). However, this is a monumental achievement for the whole family!

Lily's Birthday Bash

Okay... it probably wasn't a "birthday bash"... however, it was a great birthday party! With a Minnie Mouse theme, how can you go wrong!

It's hard to believe that one year ago we were at the hospital cuddling our new baby girl. Her learning and growth in the past year amaze me. The fact that we've made it a whole year without any major catastrophes is miraculous in and of itself.

All ready for the party to start!

A happy 1-year-old girl makes two happy parents!

Thank you to everyone who came to Lily's birthday party and helped make is a special, memorable experience. We are truly grateful!

Four Generations

To celebrate my Grandma Austin's birthday, we went to the Garden for lunch. Delicious food! While we were there, we took a four-generation picture with Lily, my mom and her mom. Thanks for taking the picture Elizabeth!
