Pictures

Andrew says I need to put up more pictures. **sure - i'll put pictures up if i don't have to clean! - nice trade i'd say!

Tooth!

Autumn has her first tooth!

However... she will not let me take a picture of it so I guess you will just have to settle for a picture of her entire face.

Cousins!!!

During the long overdueness of this blog thinger - my girls have cousins now!!!!

First Ross married Stacy who has 3 boys: Tom, Blake and Austin. They were married a few short days after I gave birth to Autumn! My biggest fear was still being pregnant during the wedding and everyone being afraid that I'd pop so I'd be forced to stand a waterproof mat of some sort. In the end - I was just happy I was there and I actually fit into the dress I had to just pray I'd squeeze into since I was so pregnant when I went bridesmaid dress shopping I had to guess at a size! I mean seriously! Look at that basketball!

Then a few days after Autumn was born - another miracle!!! Benjamin popped into the world to proud first time parents Adam and Trish!!

...and last but not least Linnea was born to lucky ma and pa: Ryan and Nikki at the end of February!

FAST FOWARD!!!

Alright - I totally forgot I had a blog started. I suppose that was the result of reality clashing with my hormones...anyways - - - -

What is going on now!

Lilly will be a ripe age of 6 in July!! She is very excited! She has lost two teeth. The first one she swallowed while eating a banana and had to write the Tooth Fairy an IOU and a very convincing story. She has informed us that she has a boyfriend named Dylan. Apparently they like to play "Ben 10" (a cartoon) on the playground and blow eachother kisses. Lilly really knows how to make her daddy sweat! She also started soccer and is in a love/hate relationship with it. She hates having to stop what she is doing and get dressed etc. to get to her games/practices - but once she is there it is hard to make her come home. She just finished cheerleading which Andrew and I are so thankful for. It was horrific! All it was was a bunch of little girls wearing the same thing screaming at the top of their little lungs and then repeating it.

Anywhooo.... Lilly loved Kindergarten and is excited for first grade. She is growing up so fast! I've already been told it is not cool to smother her with kisses at the bus stop. She says it is "bambarassing" and will make her lose all her friends - so now I have to get my smooches in before she exits the front door.

Autumn doesn't say anything. She just sits there like a drooling Buddha. She enjoys watching the drool drip onto her gut looking into a mirror that is on the ground for her. A lot of parents are so excited for their baby to start talking....... Autumn - you take as long as you want!
