It's hard to believe that it has been 6 months already.  Last night, we celebrated with Aunt Alison and Uncle Nick.  We sang Happy Birthday and had some awesome cake.  Lilly loved it and had a blast.  The photographer took nearly 100 pictures - it was VERY difficult to narrow them down.

Lilly's first trip to Disney World is in the books.  We couldn't have asked for a better time.  Lilly was a complete doll.  She slept through the entire plane ride - even ignoring the screaming kids in the row behind us!  We all had a great time and are already thinking about the next trip.

Ok - so it wasn't all fun and games.

She sure knew what to do to this guy - she planted a big kiss right on his nose!  It was adorable (and a little gross since it was an open mouth kiss - I hope Mickey washes frequently).

The whole gang with the big cheese.

Lilly and Daddy definitely enjoyed Oktoberfest

Lilly sure knows how to accessorize

Why siesta when you can fiesta!

Grandpa getting a little carried away.  Too bad we missed International Talk Like a Pirate day by about a week.

Mike Jansen - this is for you.

Princess - Check.  Castle - Check.  Knight in Shining Armor - Not exactly.

Calling Mr. Morrow.  Mr. Tom Morrow.

Mickey's nose tasted OK - let me try yours!

This was definitely a first.  Lilly never falls asleep like this.  She usually needs to be held & rocked while wrapped tight in a blanket with white noise playing in the background.  Of course, she has not repeated the display yet, but we're hopeful that we'll be seeing more soundly sleeping Lilly around the house soon.

Another month in the books.  There isn't much to see this month, since there wasn't a whole lot going on.  On Friday, we are heading for Lilly's first trip to Disney World - so check back in a couple weeks for a bunch of pictures.

We're starting to get the hang of these pictures

Bless you Barney Bee!  When will the wedding be?

Mommy calls these my Yoga pants.  You can tell that winter is coming to Cleveland.

So Tired

I Love Prunes!

I was able to figure out how to get out of this contraption in no time at all.

It's been another crazy month.  Lilly went to her first wedding, got baptized and to top it all off, turned 4 months old.  Here's the pictures:

Traditional Picture Spot

First time in the exer-saucer

Pluto had a very bad week.  He developed an ear infection and some infected skin sores after some agressive grooming by Daddy.  And to add insult to injury, he had an allergic reaction to his vaccination and had to stay at the Vet overnight with an IV.  The result is this very pathetic sight.  We've been nursing him back to health and he's doing much better.

Lilly's first taste of icing.  She loved it.

Newly baptized Lillian and Grandma

Proud parents.

Grandpa got the second spot on Lillian's dance card... But...

Daddy had the extreme honor of Lilly's first dance ever.

Lillian getting ready for Florida.  (I tried to photoshop out Moby Dick there, but alas my skills are not up to the task.  Sorry.)

Here is a sampling of the portraits we had made today.
