Augusta and Lydia had matching PJs!



Trying to reach the birds that hang down...



Lydia in her new Rainforest Jumper!

We had really nice first Christmas as a family...busy, but very enjoyable. Lydia got spoiled!!! She's starting to have this personality and it's so fun to watch her grow and change. She just started doing this silly panting thing...she sounds like a dog, but it is hilarious! She can also be such a faker...when she coughs, if you talk to her or just give her attention she'll keep fake coughing, and she's mastered the fake cry! She got a jumper from Nanny and Papa(matt's parents)and she LOVES it!! She's eating fruits and veggies now with rice cereal so we are down to 3 bottles a day.

Wedding plans are coming along. A couple of my bridesmaids and I went dress shopping for their dresses and I totally changed my mind on the colors...
I've got my dress and sometime in the next couple weeks we will get the invitations done(i'm making them myself).

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

We have been truely blessed this year and have many things to be thankful for. Lydia is the light of our lives and the best gift we could imagine. We hope you all had very happy holiday and that you have as much to be thankful for as we do.

4 months old!!

Out little Lydia is growing so fast! She's 4 months old now and just amazing. She's starting to get this little personality. She weighs just about 16 lbs now and is 26 1/2 inches. She's reaching for things and anything she can get in her mouth she puts there. I'm pretty sure she's teething...drooling like crazy and chews on her hand all the time. She has discovered her feet and toes, and boy those are fun!! Those go in her mouth as well. She talks and laughs and is starting to enjoy a game of "peek-a-boo".

Matt and I decided against the Vegas wedding and are getting married here in Mount Vernon, April 19, 2008. Things are going great.

3 months old

I know...I've been horrible at keeping this up to date! Lots going on and wonderful things happening! Lydia is fantastic. She is so amazing! She's getting this little personality and she is so sweet. She laughs and coos and talks alot. She's rolling over now from back to stomach and stomach to back. She's also trying to sit up! We had he baptized and had a wonderful gathering with friends and family. Matt and I went to Vegas last week and left Lydia with Nanny and Poppa Don...while it was nice to have the time to ourselves I missed her terribly and couldn't wait to get home and hold her! She got sick for her first time while we were gone...I was so sad, but she's doing great now and is back to her happy self!

Matt proposed on October 26!!! We are getting married in Vegas on March 29!!

I will post more pictures soon...I promise!!
