Weekend in Iowa (part 3)

We celebrated Lillia's birthday with a brunch on Sunday!

 Lillia with two of her new favorite toys....Buzz and Woody!

Jammies from Gramma and Grampa Great

 It's hard to find Toy Story jammies that look girly!  Oh well, she LOVES them!  :)

Enjoying her new camping chair!  Had to make sure she put a drink in the holder!

Thanks everyone for helping to make Lillia's second birthday so special!  Lillia is delighting in all her birthday gifts!  We loved being home with you and look forward to seeing you at Thanksgiving!

Weekend in Iowa (part 2)

As mentioned before, we celebrated my cousin's wedding while in Ames.  Lillia had a great time at the reception!  :)  She loved dancing with Carrie, Molly, and Kayla!  A few pictures from the day....

Weekend in Iowa (part 1)

Lillia and I headed to Ames last weekend while Brandon headed to Texas with his buds for their annual Cyclone Football road trip.

With the weather being as beautiful as it was, we took full advantage of being outside!  My mom, sister, Lillia, and I made our first trip to Center Grove Orchard!  Lillia loved it!  Actually, we all loved it!

We found farm animals...

We ventured into The Three Little Pigs Houses....

We milked a cow....

We played in the corn pool...

We bounced on the big yellow "pillow"...

We went down the big slide...

We found a fuzzy wuzzy...

We picked out pumpkins...

And what trip to the Apple Orchard is complete without a little snack?...

 

 

Thanks for such a great trip to the apple orchard gramma and Molly!  Let's do it again next year!

Lillia's Two!

This sweet girl turned 2 years old on October 3!  She is such a delight! We are loving this age!

Brandon's family came to celebrate Lillia's birthday with us in Kansas and the following weekend we celebrated with my family in Iowa. (more about our Iowa trip later)

Thanks for coming to celebrate with us Papa, Grammy, and Uncle Bri!

Uncle Bubba we missed you! (and Caitlyn too!)

A little help from mom blowing out her candles!

Happy Birthday Lillia Paige!  We love you!

27 Weeks

When packing for a weekend in Ames, which included going to a wedding, I happened to remember that I went to a wedding at the same point in my pregnancy with Lillia.  So I specifically packed the same dress and jewelry in order to make a little comparison!

The reception happened to be at the same location, so I grabbed a picture in the same spot I stood a little over two years ago!  

What do you think?  Has much changed in two years?!  :)
