Celebrate We Will

We had a nice birthday celebration for Lily on Saturday. She was showered with gifts! It was great having Toni and Dave here too. They were able to witness Lily really walking. Yippee...we have a walker.

Lily's cake and new Minnie Mouse bag. Toni found the bag and it was perfect.

Lily and Minnie

Mmm, cake.

Grandma Toni and the One Year Old!

Thank Heaven for Little Girls...

It's very hard for me to believe our baby girl is turning one tomorrow. In many ways it seems like just yesterday I was sitting in a hospital closet room holding our new daughter. She was perfect and immediately fit into our family.

Just realized that from day one she has been hugging her dad!

So happy!

Lily said, "Where's my brudder?"

(Inside joke--Jack says this every day when I pick him up from school)

This week one of our best friends delivered a beautiful girl and another found out they will be having a girl in the spring. I wish for them what we have been given from our daughter...joy, love and awe. Happy Birthday Lil. You are pure sweetness and I hope you always remain that way.

I never particularly thought much of this song until I heard it again recently. I guess it has new meaning now...

For Kevin...

My mom found this package of mustaches at Pottery Barn Kids (don't worry not toxic or very sticky for that matter). We did a photo shoot for you Kev.

Look it's Mini-Me

I think Nicole has the same reaction to both Colin and Kevin

Jack wasn't digging the stache thankfully

Brian, My Mom, Bridget (and yes, my mom is a mustachioed penguin)

Magnum P.I., er, I mean, David

Few More Halloween Shots...

Welcome Vivian Paige May

Our friends Erin and Bob (and Nate) welcomed a healthy baby girl two days ago. I've seen a couple pictures and she's just perfect. And, I love that name--sounds very old hollywood (right up my alley). Lil and Viv will be almost a year apart! Wishing them congrats and sleep when they can get it. Looking forward to getting the gang all together.

Halloween Brunch

Love how Colin is holding his mom's hand

Aunt Nicole, I highly recommend pancakes

Hi Kev!! We miss you!

Halloween Cuties

Halloween was great because we got to see alot of people and load up on alot of sweets. Jack was one happy guy yesterday. Anyhoo, I have lots of pictures to post throughout the week but here a few...

Bridget put on her coat and was letting Jack "play" with her tools.

We were able to sneak in a session of trick-or-treating with Bridget and Brian. One person commented that Bridget's costume was really good. Nicole gave Jack the little bucket. She is always so thoughtful. She also gave him a little glow light which was a great thing too (his mother did not think about these things in advance!)

Lily the flower (only fitting). She is pure sweetness.

We went to brunch with my dad (like I said more pics to come) and you should have heard the collective oohs and ahhs when this little lion made his entrance...

Nicole and I were talking about how Colin's eyes look like they're getting darker. But, in this picture they're still very blue. Love the cheeks.
