Lilly's Crawling

Lilly has started crawling. She has an odd form of crawling, but it seems to work for her. She's able to get to where she needs to be.

Lilly's First Birthday

Lilly had a great first birthday. For starters her dad came home to celebrate with us so that was pretty great. We had a fun day together that started with opening presents and eating a yummy breakfast of pancakes. We then spent time playing together and ended the day with spaghetti and meatballs and of course birthday dessert! Lilly enjoyed her chocolate strawberry cupcake and ate the entire thing.

Our little girl has changed so much in a year. She talks and laughs all the time and makes us so happy. She can pull herself up and started crawling exactly one week before her birthday. It won't be long until she starts walking. We're so excited to see what the next year brings.

Lilly now has two teeth popping through her bottom gums. She is also pulling herself up to her knees and loves to hold onto your fingers and walk around. She giggles the whole time she's walking. I think she's going to skip crawling and go straight to walking.

She continues to talk and tell us all sorts of stories. Sometimes it seems like she talks non-stop! It's crazy to think that she's going to be 1 year old in a few weeks.

Lilly and Turtle at 10 Months

We're a little late posting this since we were traveling for Christmas and New Year's and we've been in the process of preparing for our big move. Here is Lilly at 10 months. She wants to crawl really bad but hasn't started doing it yet, but she's really close. She also has her first tooth that's starting to come through on the bottom. It's not completely out yet, but we can see and feel it there.

Dad dressed her and put her shirt on backwards. Those buttons are supposed to go in the front.

Lilly's 1st visit with Santa

Lilly got to meet Santa for the first time. I thought she would be just fine sitting on Santa's lap however she was not a fan of him. Maybe next year she'll like him!

Jacobson Family Christmas Tree 2015

We went to our local tree farm to cut down our Christmas tree. Lilly was a great help picking out the tree and cutting it down.

Bundled up and ready to pick out the perfect tree.

Tree slayer!

Cutting down a tree is hard work.
