Fun with Lilly!

Dan and I had the privilege of watching Lilly this weekend. Peter and Meg went to Chicago for the weekend and the Cubs game Saturday afternoon. Lilly wore her Cubs outfit in their honor. She does a great rendition of take me out to the ball game. She loves!!!! stickers as you can see from her face. We took her to the little park nearby for some recreation. She is a swinger who likes to sing. She sang her A,B,C's and wanted lots of songs sung to her. It was a treat to have her spend the weekend.

Lilly's 2nd birthday

We had fun celebrating Lilly's 2nd birthday. She enjoyed all her friends who came her to her party today. She laughed and squealed for joy!

Lilly and I visited Liz's work place earlier this week. All the residents were delighted with her! She gave them all high 5's. A few of them sat out on the patio with us. Lilly sat in a rocker and rocked and rocked while we sang songs to her. It was so neat to see how much the residents loved having her there.

Pete's 2nd birthday

I thought it would be fun to see how Peter looked when he turned 2. I was delighted to see that Peter got to be with all his grandparents that year, 1979. We think I flew out to SF with Pete and then we flew to Utah. Dan drove out to meet us in Provo so that we could visit with Grandpa George who was suffering from lung cancer. He was blessed to get to meet all his grandparents.

I also wanted to remember my mom and dad. This week would be their 57th anniversary and my mom's birthday. It is so neat that Lilly's birthday is so close to her great-grandma's birth date.

And while I was looking at pictures I came across these pictures of Carolyn. Big similarity to her Jane! Especially with her thumb in her mouth!
