Summer Lovin'

2010-08-07T17:06:00.013-04:00

This summer is going by so quickly, but we have managed to get a few pictures. Lila and Eva are doing so wonderfully and are such a blessing to us. Lila just loves her little sister and the biggest problem I have is keeping her from cuddling with Eva too much. She climbs into her crib and pack-n-play all of the time! And Eva is doing so well. She started sleeping through the night this week and is just such a content baby. As long as Mommy doesn't eat pizza (which in turn gives Eva a belly ache) she is a happy girl! She has started cooing and smiling alot, especially at Lila. Jared and I are truly thankful for these great girls! Congratulations to all of our other friends who have had girls recently or are having them soon - Wes & Ang, Adam & Ansley, Chris & Katie, Melissa & Jim and many others. Girls are so fun!!

If only Eva could sit in her bouncy seat alone...

This is the reality of my life! And you wonder why we HAD to get A/C!

Lila riding with her cousins...

And Eva chillin' (as usual).

Lila's first game of putt-putt and Uncle Jordan trying to show her what to do...

Yes! What this pic doesn't show is that she finally picked up the golf ball and dropped it into the hole. :)

The afore-mentioned pack-n-play cuddle time.

One of these days, I will get a good picture of both girls!

Poor Eva - almost being dropped by Lila and Chloe...and Olivia doesn't seem to care too much.

Our date to Papa's office....

2010-07-22T19:37:00.000-04:00

Out for pizza and ice cream!!

Eva Mae!

2010-06-03T19:33:00.019-04:00

Sorry it has taken awhile to post Eva's first pictures - I've been a little busy! Things are going so well here! Eva is a content little baby so far and Lila is enjoying her sister so much! She loves to cuddle with her and kiss her head especially. What a joy these two girls are! I'm recovering well and labor was such a breeze this time, that I actually might consider having another child. :) Not any time soon, of course...

So, the Myles girls try to get a good picture - then Lila decides to play with my hair with her feet - the newest fetish! :) Weird child.

Daddy & Eva

Going home...we left the hospital so quickly that we didn't have a chance to get Lila back up to the hospital for a farewell picture!

Just the girls...

Lila decided she needed to lay down with a blanket too...sweet...

Cuddling with Grammy before bedtime. My mom spent the night for several days and then we had our first night alone last night. Needless to say, Eva went through "Grammy withdrawal" and was awake a lot. Oh, well, we'll get it down eventually!

Maternity Photos

2010-05-18T15:36:00.011-04:00

So thank you to our friend Bob for letting us borrow his camera to shoot some great maternity pics! Lila was actually in the mood to pose for once and kept asking to take more, so that was extra helpful. Notice the first picture where she's wearing her cute headband - we knew it wouldn't last long. Oh, well, I am forcing Eva to wear cute things in her hair. :) Don't be shocked by my hugeness...according to Lila, "Mama's belly be small soon." We thought it was going to be yesterday, but apparently when you go in with contractions every 2-4 minutes and you're not dialated, they send you home. But only after a night of no sleep. Who knew??

Cute Pics

2010-05-17T21:02:00.009-04:00

So I didn't realize how long it had been since I had posted pictures! The following are just some random ones that we've taken...a maternity pic post is soon to come!

Papa & Grammy bought a horse! Her name is Bonnie, but Lila calls her Rabbit - get it? Bonnie Rabbit. She's a little confused about it.

What a sweet girl.

Easter Pictures

Lila, Chloe & Olivia

Happy Birthday to You!

2010-04-04T20:13:00.008-04:00

So Lila is officially two and she knows it - all of you toddler mothers know what I mean! Here's Little Miss Attitude at her birthday party...enjoying some time when all of the attention is on her!

Playing with cousin Olivia.

Enjoying some party food with cousin Chloe!

Lila's friend Isaiah, who (much to the chagrin of his dad) enjoyed playing with the girlie toys! He did manage to find the cowboy hat and looks very masculine, don't you think?

Mary Poppins cake that I slaved over - and when I asked Lila "Doesn't it look like Mary Poppins?" she said "No!" Yeah, she's right.

Eating breakfast at Lila's new table.

Trip to Florida

2010-03-18T14:14:00.007-04:00

So apparently we didn't document our trip too well as far as pics are concerned! But here are a few random photos from our recent trip to Florida. Grammy came along with us (thank goodness) and we stayed with Lila's Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma Mather, whom she became comfortable with VERY quickly! She was "running naked" within a few hours of our arrival. Yeah.

Our trip to the Magic Kingdom - Lila decided she wasn't going to take pictures that day.

Her favorite attraction, of course - the carousel.

Hmm, I think I like this!

Ahh, isn't it great to eat a snack while sitting in a trash can? What a nut!

Good thing Daddy isn't afraid to swim in cold pools 'cause Mommy isn't doing it! Lila had a great time and even smiled for a few pics - woohoo!

And last but not least, here's Lila listening to Great-Grandma's organ concert - what's not to love with all of those fun buttons and good gospel music?

Lila's First Haircut

2010-02-24T20:42:00.008-05:00

So until now we haven't needed to cut Lila's hair, but it has finally grown long enough to require a little trim. We couldn't quite imagine taking Lila to an actual salon, so we used the next best thing - Grammy! With the promise of a popsicle when she was all done and the joy of looking at herself in the mirror for a whole 10 minutes, Lila endured her first haircut. Here's the play-by-play.

Checking out the tools and looking a little disheveled...

Ooo...a water bottle!

The only smile I caught on camera...

...because when I asked her to look at me and smile, this is what I got - attitude!

You can just see the thought process...is there still enough hair left to twirl while I suck my thumb?

Ooo, a ponytail and bangs!

Looking sooooo grown up - and still checking herself out in the mirror while enjoying her reward. Good job Lila and thanks Grammy!

Superbowl Fun

2010-02-12T07:56:00.007-05:00

So we went to my parents' house for the Superbowl last weekend and the girls played in the snow and went sledding together. Lila had a blast on the hill with Daddy, though I think I had more fun watching them inside while drinking hot cocoa - one of the perks of pregnancy. :)

Grammy & Papa with Lila & Chloe - getting these girls to smile at the same time is impossible! And Lila is, of course, clothes-free or as she says "I run naked."

Oh, Olivia...she's loving Uncle Jared right now and just cuddles right up to him. He enjoys it since Lila will barely sit still long enough to hug us sometimes!

Elizabeth and the girls - Olivia is there, we promise!

Cute pics of Daddy and Lila - not sure how comfortable I feel with them being this close to the cows (who have giant horns, by the way) but oh, well...

Swimming in January

2010-02-02T14:27:00.010-05:00

So here are a few pictures of Lila swimming with Daddy and Uncle Jordan. My Mom & Dad bought the whole family a pool pass for January and we have had a blast! Lila loves the water and is sure to be a good swimmer like Jared. Then there are, of course, a few pictures of Lila proving that she has earned the nickname "Miss Attitude." :)

Hmm...the most recent "camera smile" which is why we have to take all candid shots. She closes her eyes. No photo sessions for us any time soon. Poor Amber...all she wanted was one good picture with Lila!

And our little nudist. She is loving to run around with no clothes on even though it's so darn cold! I was making dinner and caught her reading like this in her bedroom.

Um...

2010-01-11T12:32:00.015-05:00

So I'm a bit embarrassed that it's taken me this long to do a blog post, but Mom & Ansley will be happy to know that it's finally happening! So bear with me on all of these random pictures...

Just a cute one of Lila and her long hair - it's out of control!

Pic of me in the ER, right before I was admitted to the hospital 2 weeks ago with an annoying kidney infection...interesting the moments Jared happens to catch on camera, huh? :)

...and I'm feeling better and getting bigger...will be 20 weeks this week...half way...yay!

Lila watching her new favorite - "Sound of Music." She just wants to watch the parts with singing and asks for "kids." She's also singing along "Do - So - La" at the top of her lungs.

Who knew this child was so easy to please? I put this umbrella in her stocking as a gift and she is attached. We even had to eat Christmas dinner with it over her just to make her happy. We think it has something to do with Mary Poppins because she has to pull it out every time we watch it.

Oh, another favorite gift - her doll and new best friend. Papa & Grammy got this for her and she was in love with it immediately, as you can see.

These two are so funny. Now that Lila is talking a little, they're having some good fun together. Here they are laughing as they're dancing to Uncle Jordan's piano playing.

Lila needed a little time away on Christmas Day, as all oldest children do. :) She grabbed her sucker and sat in the window to watch the birds...sans pants, of course.

See, the oldest child thing is true. Here's my Dad taking a nap with the new puppy, Max. Baxter (the old and BIG) dog sure couldn't do this.

Tried to get a good picture of Lila and Uncle Jordan, but she just wouldn't hold still. They now have coordinating cowboy hats (and hopefully Lila will now leave Jordan's alone)!

Lila's first sledding experience...thank goodness for Uncle Jordan, because I certainly don't think I should be bumping down the hill or I might go into labor quite early. She liked the sledding OK, but was more excited about putting her hands in the snow and building the "guy" AKA snowman. Please excuse her outfit. I had not bought a new snowsuit and thought the one from last year would fit! Obviously I was quite mistaken, but thanks to Grammy, we have a nice new one now!

A random but cute pic of Lila.

And only one good picture from our Christmas with the Mosers because it was before I got my new camera from them! We had quite an adventure - Lila was opening her gift from Aunt Kristin (another favorite - a horse) and Daddy volunteered to cut the ties to get it out of the box. He slipped and cut his finger with a knife...and an ER trip and 4 stitches later, we continued openening gifts. So I guess good pictures weren't our first priority. And yes, that means Jared and I each went to the ER within 2 weeks. Wow.

So here are a few pictures from last month. Lila was dedicated at church...finally! It was great to have that done and she enjoyed standing in front of everyone and trying to speak into the microphone. She doesn't appear too happy in the pics since it was getting close to naptime. :)

Unfortunately, I have to do these one at a time - my computer can't seem to handle much more. She likes to talk - we're actually dreading the day when we can understand what she's saying. :)

Again...Random

2009-09-30T20:15:00.012-04:00

So I really should do shorter blog posts more often to avoid the strange mix of photos that I'm posting, but you know, time gets away from me. This is quite a cacophony of pics, most of which I'm posting, if for no other reason, than to promote the cuteness of our daughter. I'll explain as we go...

Going for a bike ride and trying to get the helmet off before we even begin - I try to tell her it's Chloe's helmet to make her want to wear it, but that only worked the first couple of times!

The girls playing dress-up...

Is she trying to tell me that it's too hot in this house?

Our brave little farm girl - always trying to touch the animals (even the ones with big horns).

Feeding Amos some hay, as directed by Grammy.

Our own little corn maze champion!

Smelling a dandelion..."nature's little yellow garbage" as Barbara Jean on "Reba" says.

So our friends own a miniature donkey, which they bred with a miniature horse to produce a miniature mule. Got that? We visited him the day after he was born and Lila loved him - he was just her size!

Come to me horses!

Please, Mom, just put me in there with them!

Funny Girl

2009-09-08T20:05:00.007-04:00

Here's Lila and her new favorite playmate, Lane. Good thing Lane doesn't care if Lila picks her up and throws her around! They like to make a tent in the crib and chill together.

So the other day, she just decided to walk around with a Q-tip in her ear - the obsession continues.

Our future pianist, her she is folks. And the headphones make it even more fun!

Lila's First Water Park

2009-08-26T14:02:00.009-04:00

So we went to Splash Down a couple of weeks ago with Uncle Jordan...and Lila absolutely loved it! She got tired pretty quickly since it was so hot outside - of course, it could also have something to do with the fact that she RAN everywhere. Anyway, enjoy the pics.

Running when we first arrived...

The Kiddie Slides - Lila's favorite attraction!

Discovering the Fountain...see below for hilarious video.

She thought this fountain was the funniest thing she'd ever seen...oh, by the way, that is NOT my derriere that you keep seeing in this video, I promise.

Ohio State Fair Time!

2009-08-20T20:38:00.007-04:00

Lila and I went to the Ohio State Fair with my parents and brother a few weeks ago and had a blast! She was especially fond of the carousel...I had to pry her hands off in order to leave. Fun fun!

Actually NOT a fair picture, but so cute - the love of shoes must be hereditary!

She was quite fond of this little calf - she needs one Grammy and Papa!

Taking a break on Uncle Jordan - and being fed by Grammy as usual.

Catch-Up

2009-08-18T20:11:00.017-04:00

Ok, so if you don't want to see a hundred random pictures of Lila, navigate away now! I haven't posted since May due to our computer shortage, so I'm trying to make up for it. I'll explain as I go...though most pics are of Lila being...well, herself!

Posing on the Piano

With Grammy...both have beautiful hair, don't they?

While we were moving into our new house, this is where Lila spent her time. Apparently she's never seen an oven drawer before.

She rediscovers the joy of Q-tips daily...at least she knows how to use them!

Playing at the park...actually, she's playing with the BUGS at the park. What a girlie girl we have!

Lila lovin' on Olivia and giving her kisses.

Laying out - she did this all by herself and put a blanket over her.

Not sure where she learned it because I haven't rested anywhere since she was born!

Mommy's Little Helper

2009-05-28T11:27:00.008-04:00

So Lila has really started to help me out around the house...we collect eggs every day, feed the fish, sweep, do laundry and clean. It goes well most of the time, but every once in awhile she forgets to help and goes her own way...

Pulling weeds for Grammy!

Taking the dogs their food...

...and then feeding it to them one piece at a time!

Oops...Mommy was cleaning and Lila found the sunflower seeds!

How in the world can I be mad with that face? :)

Don't worry, Mom, I'll clean it up!

Lady A Concert!

2009-05-24T14:58:00.010-04:00

Our friend Adam came through AGAIN for us and got us tickets to the Lady A/Kenny Chesney concert in Columbus yesterday. Jared went early and spent time with Adam, then I brought Lila a little later. She had a great time even though it was hot, hot, hot! We were all happy to see Adam and had so much fun!

With Lady A!
I'm laughing like a fool because Lila is holding Charles' hand, which is on my shoulder...she was being so sweet.

This is how she really felt...

Finally getting into it and dancing a little. :)

How Lila was feeling when Lady A first started playing...a few tears because of the noise.

By the next song, she was a happier camper!

Our First Cookie Dough

2009-05-18T14:42:00.007-04:00

Lila and I made cookie dough today and I finally let her have a taste - not to worry, we used our farm fresh eggs so it should be safe! She had quite a blast just eating the flour and shortening (and still had some left on her face)...but when she got that dough she was so excited! I just had to take a few pics. Oh and don't you like her first rug-burn on her forehead? :)

"Hmm...is this a joke, Mom? A whole spoonful?"

"OK, I'll take it!"

"Mmmm...."

"I won't leave a drop of this behind."

And the end result...in cookie dough heaven!

Cute Mother's Day Pics

2009-05-16T09:18:00.008-04:00

Well, I celebrated my 2nd Mother's Day last weekend. Lila is growing up so fast and is such a joy that it makes me very thankful that she MADE me a mother. We have so much fun together...especially since I get to stay home with her every day. God has certainly blessed Jared and me with a wonderful daughter!

Kissing...

Oh, how sweet!

Posing...

Lila cudding with cousin Olivia.

And leaning in for yet another kiss...while Elizabeth holds on for dear life to the baby. :)

OK, OK

2009-04-29T15:44:00.009-04:00

So just when I think no one checks the blog anymore, Uncle Jordan calls and says "Post something!" So here you go. This is from our trip to Indiana last weekend. We visited for our friend Stefan's birthday and had a blast with everyone. Even though I got horribly sick on Mexican food, Lila had fun getting to know "the other Jordan," Wes and Ang's little boy. I think she was a bit confused though - every time I said "There's Jordan," she would look around like uh, no, Mom, he's not here, quit tricking me!

Lila corrupting little Jordan...

Loved playing on the playground...

With Daddy

Is that a smile or is your breath being taken away by that Indiana wind?

Our "hiking" escapade...she still loves that pack.

"Hahaha, Mom you are soooo hilarious!"

Very excited about discovering a rock.

On the way home - "Are we there yet?"

Happy Easter!

2009-04-17T10:46:00.007-04:00

Well, we had a lovely Easter this year. Jared, Dad, Ryan, Elizabeth and I were all in the Easter performance at church, so that made for a busy (but fun) weekend. When we finally did get together for Easter, the girls loved hunting for eggs and flying their new kites. I don't need to tell you what Lila got in her basket because she will let you know in the video below!

Elizabeth can never hold Olivia without Lila trying to come rub her head.

Chloe & Lila with their egg-hunting purses.

Ooo, we found a good one!

"Can't I just shake them some more instead of putting them in the basket?"

"What I Got for Easter"

Finally!

2009-04-17T10:33:00.003-04:00

Well, it has finally been warm enough to run around outside for a few days - and Lila is loving it! I'm not sure how the two of us got an outdoor girl, but she definitely is. Here are a few pics of her picking "flowers" (actually hay) and calling for Baxter to come back.

Trip to Colorado

2009-04-07T09:23:00.009-04:00

We visited Colorado a couple of weeks ago for Jared's cousin's wedding. I was quite nervous about the flights, since Lila is quite a busy one-year-old and Jared was on a different plane, but she did great both times! We started at Kristin's house and finally met our new niece Kali. Lila loved her but was under the impression that she should be doing the same things she could...hence the pic below of Lila feeding her a chip...it was probably dipped in salsa since dipping is the other new talent. :) Anyway, we spent time with the Darlings next and had a blast. Lila loved playing with Carson and Cherish...and made a new friend in Gareth, Andrea's friend from Northern Ireland. Although she didn't really get close enough to touch him, she spent a lot of time staring. :) Oh, boy, she needs to stop THAT by the time she's a teenager. These pictures don't really do the trip justice, but here are a few. Oh, and when we returned, we asked Chloe where we were...she said "co-lo-ra-do" so our trip served to teach her a new word. :) So cute.

Lila & Daddy playing at the park!

New favorite activity...though walking UP the slide seems to appeal to her more...

Lila & Carson

With Lila's Great-Great-Aunt Betty and Great-Great-Aunt Kate at the Stanley Hotel...we had a blast with them!

Us and Gareth

Not sure what she was doing here, but I think she was telling a story...about how cold and miserable she was! :)

Our hour-long shopping spree downtown...the only time we had!

Happy Birthday Lila!

2009-03-29T21:02:00.007-04:00

Ok, so our baby turned 1 on March 14th...traumatic. But we had a big birthday bash and I know a lot of you have been asking for pictures - here they are! I made my first official birthday cake and while I wasn't so sure about it at first, it ended up being quite cute, I think. Thanks to my Mom and Grandma Mather for the "phone a friend" help. What a fun day!

Lila & her buddy Nate - he wanted to eat her dress and she wanted to play with his hair...

Cute Birthday Dress!

Hmm...not sure WHY she ate her cake like this but she was very methodical and it was hilarious!

"Do I have to eat ALL of this, Mom?"

Ooo, a fun present - her new vaccuum cleaner! Even though it makes its own noises, she sings along...."ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh." The whole time. :)

Helping Gram with her cleaning.

Welcome Olivia!

2009-03-29T20:51:00.005-04:00

I'm sorry I'm so late in posting this, but things have been a little busy! We wanted to say welcome to our new niece and Lila's new cousin Olivia! We received a call on March 7th, Saturday morning, from Ryan saying, "Come to the hospital to watch Chloe; Olivia's coming in an hour!" Whoa...OK. It was the first unexpected delivery I've been a part of - what a rush! And I mean, literally, a rush - we made it to the hospital and Olivia was born around 10:15. And sorry Mommy Elizabeth, I don't have many pics but these are the ones from our camera...I'm sure there will be many more pictures to come. So far, Lila has been very gentle with her - and she even leaned over and kissed her head in the hospital. Wish I had a picture of that!

Chloe & Lila waiting patiently...

Lila looking through the window at her new cuz!

Proud Daddy & Sister Chloe holding the new baby!

Apparently the nurse wanted Lila to be part of the action.

Gram & Papa with Olivia

Our Little Valentine

2009-02-10T21:00:00.010-05:00

Well, we tried to get some shots of Lila for her first Valentine's Day. She's getting so darn big and walking all over the place - I promise to post a video soon. So here's the little sweetie posing for us. How cute!

She only wanted to eat the heart...

New Talent

2009-01-23T12:12:00.002-05:00

Lila discovered a new talent this week - spitting. Yes, folks, what a little lady we have...not only does she growl but now she spits! Hope you enjoy this video; notice how soaking wet her shirt is!

Lila's First Christmas...Part 2

2009-01-06T14:54:00.009-05:00

So we were at the Moser's for Christmas - all of us but Kristin and our new addition, little Kali! We had a fun time and Lila warmed up and started being her crazy self about day 2. :)

This is the new smile...

Oh, and she tried to kiss Walker ALL week - he kissed her back and she just squealed!

Most of Mom's time was spent trying to keep Lila away from the tree!

Think she likes her new little car??

Lila & Daddy at Christmas dinner...

Lila did this all by herself - decided to rest on Uncle Justin!

Lila's First Christmas...Part 1

2009-01-06T14:31:00.006-05:00

So, the first Christmas was with the Myles family...we were all here the weekend before Christmas, so we celebrated our pseudo-holiday. We had our traditional Christmas Eve picnic (with a gift) and then woke up and opened presents the next morning. I wish I had a picture of the look on Uncle Jordan's face when he discovered a half-dead mouse under the tree, but I was screaming and picking up Lila very quickly at the time. :) Anyway, what a fun time we had!

We went out for Christmas dinner for the first time ever...so stress free!

So, I usually don't do a post again this quickly, but we had quite an episode earlier today! I was cleaning in her room and as usual, she wandered into the bathroom. But instead of leaning into the tub, she discovered the toilet paper roll...read on for the play-by-play.

I discover that she has unrolled the entire roll in a matter of seconds...

"Mmm...this tastes good!"

"Oh, hi Mommy! I'm not doing ANYTHING!"

"Don't you just LOVE me??"

Finger-Painting Fun

2008-12-16T14:51:00.011-05:00

Well, we tried finger-painting for the first time. I wish I could say we had a great time and Lila loved it, but quite the opposite was true! Although we did complete a few "Lila originals" we probably won't be doing that again any time soon. I was hoping she got the art gene from Jared's side of the family, but so far it looks like she got the impatient gene and the "I don't want to get my hands messy" gene from me instead. :) I also added a couple of videos for those of you who haven't seen Lila in awhile - sorry the bath one is so long. But she does display her new clapping talent while painting. Enjoy!

Ick, Mom - what IS this stuff?

With Chloe

Yes, this is what happened most of the time...

The strangest look yet!

Can you see the paint in her hair?

VIDEOS...mid- and post-finger painting

Young Driver

2008-12-13T12:18:00.006-05:00

Lila decided to take up driving the other day while we were waiting for Jared...she's very ambitious and quite advanced! We're enrolling her in driver's ed next week...

Lila's First Thanksgiving!

2008-12-03T07:25:00.006-05:00

We had a great time last week for Lila's first Thanksgiving! Jordan came home and pushed the girls in Lila's old bathtub up and down the hall - exhausting for him, but they thought it was the best thing! The rest of these pictures are just random from our Thanksgiving weekend of fun - Lila just cracks us up!

Busy Body

2008-11-25T14:12:00.007-05:00

Little Miss Lila has been into pretty much everything lately! Now that she's moving, she has discovered all sorts of new places in the house. Here are a few picture of her in her new favorite place - the pantry! She gets into the Wal-Mart bags and the canning jars because they make a lot of noise. She's also decided that the dishwasher is very exciting - oh, boy. She is saying "momma" and just added "dadda" so we will try to get that on tape soon!

2008-11-03T10:44:00.008-05:00

We took some lovely autumn pictures yesterday and Lila wasn't too happy about anything but eating the hay. She's so cute though. :)

Starting to get mad that we're still outside...

Cute sunglasses!

I've had it, Mom!

Circleville Pumpkin Fun!

2008-10-21T21:25:00.008-04:00

We all went to the Circleville Pumpkin Fest last weekend and had a blast! It was quite chilly, but we bundled the girlies up and braved the cold weather. I also got to see my friend Michelle and finally met her little girl, Eily. I'm sure she and Lila will be good friends!

Lila & Chloe

Finally showing her teeth while grabbing for the camera!

Better shot of Lila's teeth, but not the cutest picture of my girl. :)

Lila was very "kissy" with Grandpa that day. So sweet...

The Famous Head-Tilt

"Most people look better sideways."

So we didn't get many pics from our weekend in Kentucky with our college buds, but this one was too cute to pass up. Ansley & Lila look so cute - sorry this is so late!

These last few are from our weekend in Wadsworth - we went to The Barn to eat and Lila enjoyed the tractor and being outside! What fun!

Another Lady A Concert...and Fun with Cousin Chloe!

2008-09-22T12:57:00.007-04:00

Lila attended her second Lady Antebellum concert last weekend (third if you count when she was in the womb) and of course, had a blast! The best part was her cute pink cowgirl hat that Uncle Jordan found for her - she looked so cute but didn't enjoy wearing it too much. She's also having a great time with Chloe, since we're all living in the same house now. She basically watches as Chloe runs around - and most of the time, she finds her cousin hilarious! Now that we finally have our camera back (thanks, Walt) we should be able to start posting again. Enjoy!

Oh, my gosh - she's so purty!

"Ooo, that's a pretty hat, Aunt Elizabeth!"

Trying to stay awake for the concert...

And getting her second wind AFTER the concert!

So interested in what Chloe is saying...they're so cute together!

2008-08-15T16:23:00.009-04:00

So, on the way home from Indi, we stopped in to finally let Lila meet Uncle Adam...oh, and to see Lady Antebellum, of course! We had a grand time and Lila was a very happy camper the whole day. She met Dave, Hillary, and Charles and went to her first concert - how fun! Now Lila is ready to meet Aunt Ansley!

We went to Indianapolis last weekend for the wedding of Stefan and Amanda. We had a great time with everyone and Lila made lots of new friends! She is also showing off her very cute outfit from the Woods in the bottom pictures - so adorable!

Lila's new favorite toy...my hair. :)

"Don't I look precious?"

"Please ignore Mommy's retarded face - the goal is to show my cute butt!"

Off to Indianapolis...

2008-08-05T21:17:00.005-04:00

"Well, here are a few pics of me before Mommy and Daddy take me to Indi this weekend. As you can see, I got a new toy last weekend and boy, do I love it! My favorite part is the mirror where I can just look at myself all day long...it never gets old! And I discovered my feet today - the top picture is what Mommy saw when she came in to get me up from my nap. She tried to get a picture of me with my foot in my mouth, but I'm too fast for her. Isn't Mommy getting better at taking photos? Finally!"

Garage Sale-ing!

2008-08-02T19:36:00.008-04:00

We had our garage sale this weekend - fun, fun! It was a lot of work (for Jared) but we sold a lot of things and made some money. Dan and Amber helped us set up and then Jordan and Jami came to help with the sale. It was exciting!

Well, here are some cute little pictures of (who else?) Miss Lila!

First pair of sandals! The shoe addiction begins...

What a sweet little smile!

Playing with her new walker - fun!

Reading at 4 Months!

2008-07-26T14:45:00.005-04:00

Yes, it's true - we have a genius child! Lila just loves being read to and even "reads" out loud with me sometimes. Here she is being read to by Amanda, Adam and Jenn last weekend in Lexington. How precious, huh?

2008-07-25T13:34:00.003-04:00

Jared's birthday was last week and we spent a lovely weekend with the Woods in Lexington. Unfortunately, we didn't get many pics, but trust us, we had fun! Adam and Amanda were very welcoming and even made Jared a great birthday cake - Lila enjoyed it, as you can tell! Don't worry Mom, she didn't really eat that whole forkfull. :)

2008-07-23T11:08:00.010-04:00

New revelation: my food is not my own anymore! Lila has become extra interested in everything that I am eating. Since she was tiny, I have rested her on my lap and talked to her while I ate my cereal in the morning. As you can see from the pictures, this morning routine has now become a race to see who can get her head in my cereal bowl first! And she's so proud of herself for drinking out of a cup and eating her own rice cereal at night. How precious...

Daddy Time...

Two cute pictures of Lila and Jared doing yardwork together!

Finally...A New Post!

So here are a few recent and random pics of Miss Lila...she's getting soooo big!

Oh, boy, she has found the thumb!

The Favorite Toy - Tinkerbell, of course!

And a cute video of her screaming on cue!

So Sorry...

2008-07-07T13:51:00.002-04:00

OK, so our laptop has crashed - along with all of our pictures of Miss Lila. So we're trying to get everything off of it and I promise that I WILL do a new post soon! Pray for our friends Chris and Bethany who are in the hospital at this very moment delivering their daughter!

Sitting Pretty

2008-07-01T22:52:00.003-04:00

This post is for Miss Ansley - our friend and a regular viewer who has requested new pictures! Lila has recently started sitting all by herself on the couch while Mom does laundry and picks up around the house. She is showing off her new skill in these pics - and obviously, she thinks it's hilarious!

Our First Father's Day

2008-06-17T23:04:00.005-04:00

Happy Father's Day Jared! Look at him and his girl - so cute! We spent another day with Dan and Amber - this time at the "beach" (to us Ohioans) at Alum Creek. We had a great time - Lila loves getting her feet wet and cuddling with Mommy for warmth.

Happy 3-Month Birthday To You...

2008-06-17T22:45:00.009-04:00

Well, Miss Lila turned 3 months old on Saturday - and we can hardly believe it! She's growing up so fast and it seems like she has a new milestone practically every day. We celebrated her "birthday" by going to the Rose Gardens here in Columbus with Dan and Amber and then coming home for some Tinkerbell cupcakes. What a fun day we had!

Carissa, Lila & Amber

Yummmm...Frosting!

Fun Toys!

2008-06-06T20:25:00.005-04:00

Lila has acquired a few new toys since she's becoming more alert and requiring a bit more stimulation than just looking at Mommy's face all day long! Grandma Myles brought pools for each of the girls to Florida and we tried it out today...video is below. She just loves the water but can't figure out why the toys keep floating away from her. Daddy also caught some cute video of her enjoying her new play mat that Grandma and Grandpa brought last weekend. What a happy baby she is!
