Lily's first "real" clothes

Unfortunately, Derek's Grandpa passed away this week. For the funeral, Lily was dressed in "real" clothes for the first time. The dress is one of the only things we have besides sleepers that fits her - she is still too tiny for anything other than newborn!

Suckie babes

It's only been two weeks and Lily's already picking up Liam's bad habits...

Liam and Lily

Introducing Lily Grace!

Here she is, our brand new baby girl!

Lily arrived on November 12, 2006 at 12:56 pm. She weighed 7lbs 13oz and was 19 3/4 inches long. Her early appearance was a bit of a surprise - I guess she just couldn't wait until the 22nd!

We are home now and doing well - so far Lily is a very easy going baby! Liam seems to like his new baby sister and he's always giving her kisses or rubbing her head. Derek starts his holidays tomorrow, so we will have 4 weeks to spend together getting used to our new family.

I'll update again when I can!

Happy Halloween!

Liam had a great time trick or treating on Halloween. You should have seen the look of amazement on his face when we went to the first house and they put a treat in his bucket! "Mommy,treat!!!" he kept on saying while staring into his pumpkin. After that, there was no stopping him. He was running from house to house and refused to let me or his Daddy even touch his bucket, even though it was getting full and heavy. After he had his turn outside, Liam still had lots of fun chatting with the kids that visited our house. It was quite a challenge getting the little man to bed when there was so much activity going on!

Overall, the whole experience left quite an impression. The next day we came home after work/daycare and he went running to the neighbours front door yelling "trick or treat!" He was quite upset when I explained that "trick or treat" was all done!
