Lillian’s weekend – Our Havenhill

This weekend we took Lillian to visit her Nana, and she got to open her Christmas gifts from her! She LOVED them. 🙂 She had fun at Nana’s house and showed off her crawl/flop way of moving fast across the floor! Nana’s kitties (and Josh’s too, really!) Moon and Zeus weren’t sure what to make of Lillian, but they stuck around to watch which was surprising especially for Zeus!

Her presents from Nana were a leapfrog electronic book and an activity center table and an adorable dress with socks and footless tights that I can’t wait to see on Lillian!

Lillian has developed what we think is a freckle on her right index finger. We didn’t know babies this young could get them and we hope it’s ok. We’ll keep an eye on it and bring it up to her doctor at her nine month doctor visit. You can see it in the photo above.

Josh recorded the Patriots vs. Broncos game and was ecstatic the Patriots won! (I am too by default, because I support whoever he does, seeing as I never watch the games or follow it. 😛 ) It’s so cute, Josh bought Lillian a Patriots sleeper (and a Red Sox outfit too) and we put her in the sleeper for pictures with Daddy and the amazing score! Daddy was very happy. 🙂

On Sunday Lillian and I took a stroll in the yard, and while I was putting her hooded sweater on her, we had fun watching Shadow who was being so cute and crazy! Lillian is just so fascinated by her and loves her so much!

And I just LOVE this adorable sequence of shots Josh got of Lillian! 🙂

Thank you for another great post, Sweetheart! It was a great weekend to spend with you and Lillian and for a visit with Nana. You just planned an adorable outfit for her, which you do every day! I’ve always been so impressed with your style and fashion and you’re passing it onto our beautiful girl now! The Patriots win, and in historic fashion, was a perfect end to the evening. You are always so sweet to support and care about anything I do, just like I always want to do for you, too. I’m so proud of Lillian to fit so well in her Pats sleeper when it looked so giant a couple of months ago. What a wonderful growing girl! Let’s hope we have a couple more of these final score photos to take. 🙂

I’m also so glad that Lillian and Shadow are already developing such a bond. Shadow has always been so polite and respectful of Lillian from the day we brought her home. She has always known Lillian is her family, too. It’s so sweet to see the love returned by Lillian. What a great balancing act photo of Shadow you got! I love these of Lillian outside in her hoodie, too! Thanks for liking the photos I got, too. She was just too adorable to resist, crawling and smiling! 🙂

Thanks Honey! You always say too nice of things about me! I’m so happy that the Patriots won for you and Lillian. 😉
I too love the bond Shadow and Lillian have already! It’s what we prayed for and we’re so blessed they’ve taken to each other! And yes, you sure always capture such beautiful moments for our memores! 🙂
