Lilly takes Manhattan...and upstate NY.

We had a wonderful time in upstate New York with Grammy and Pop pop. Lilly also got to meet several relatives and friends she hadn't met before like Janet and Charlie, Auntie, Maria, Melissa and Bess!
It was a whirlwind, especially once we got to New York City! Lilly loved taking in the sights and sounds... even telling the bus driver in Manhattan to "go!" at every stoplight. She's really a great traveler-- and of course that makes mommy and daddy very happy.

Working hard on Pop pop's crossword puzzle!








Saying "hi" to the choo choo that drove right behind the house we were staying in.

Gotta love the upper Hudson River!





Taking a walk at Lake George.





Playing doctor at Auntie's house!



Auntie teaching Lilly how to vacuum. Now she won't put down the Swiffer at home! :)


Taking the ferry to NYC!



Central Park with Melissa


Balloons and a huge park- Lilly was in heaven.



It doesn't get more NYC than a carriage ride in Central Park.



...or FAO Schwarz....



... or the walking down the sidewalk shot. :)




More pictures with Ara and Elijah!

We are lucky enough to have found this great photographer who took us to Kraft Gardens in Winter park. I didn't even know it existed. Here are some more fun shots with the cousins!

Memorial Day in St. Augustine













We went to St. Augustine Beach for our annual gathering with Karen, Brad and Grayson and Brooke and Kelley. While over the years it's gotten tamer(no more flip cup tournaments), we all had a lot of fun. Thanks to Karen and Brad for always letting us come stay! As you can see Lilly and Grayson played really well together. Lilly LOVED the beach-mommy couldn't keep her out of the water.

I remember when we used to take pictures of ourselves- I don't think I got one of the adults without kids being the focal point. Ah, parenthood!

It rained for a week straight!


Since Florida experienced some record rain last week, we thought we would make the best of it and go have some fun. Here's Lilly on the back porch delighting in the raindrops!

Having fun!

Here are a couple of pictures of us having fun over the past month! Lilly has been having a blast, as usual. I don't know where the time is going, she turned 18 months two weeks ago. She's a bonafide toddler now.

A basketful of fun!

Being silly for the camera with mommy.








Mother's Day

















Playing at the zoo's splash park when Gigi was in town. Kids were running through all the fountains. Lilly was content sitting with her bucket and shovel stirring the water. She's such a happy girl!
