Being out on Grandpa’s farm is fun. There are lots of things to see and do and we have fun. Lily decided to help Grandpa by picking up the rocks on his driveway. One by one she was doing well at picking them up and handing them over. Then she found a small one, a bite […]

Sleeping in the dark.
Last Thursday, Lily slept her first night in the dark. She didn’t mean to though. You see, we have a night light that we turn on whenever she goes to bed. However, Dad forgot to turn it on. It wasn’t until she was fast asleep, and we were going to bed ourselves, that we noticed. […]
Feeding The Cows
On Grandpa & Grandma McMahon’s Farm
Over the weekend we took Lily out to my parents farm where she got to see the cats, dogs, cows and even a tractor. I think she liked the cats the best, but we all had a good time showing her all the new things. As she grows up, she’ll love it even more. We’ve […]
Where’s Lily?
Picking Pumpkins
This is Lily’s second Halloween, but her first where she’s actually aware of what’s going on. So we decided to make it special by going out and picking our own pumpkins. It wasn’t only Lily’s first time picking pumpkins, but as a family, we’d never done it either. We all had a lot of fun […]

The sad thing is, we got lots of nice blankets for shower gifts and even home-made ones! They’ve been used, but never for sleeping. So when […]
Picking and eating apples.
The other day we took Lily out on her first apple picking adventure. The orchard we went to had lots of animals to see, pumpkins to check out and, of course, apples! Walking out into the orchard was a bit troublesome for Lily as she doesn’t pick her feet up to far off the ground. […]
Letting them cry themselves to sleep really works?!
There is a lot of advice that comes and goes. Some is easy to do while others sounds like the worst thing ever. Like when we were told to lay Lily down and just let herself cry herself to sleep. If we did this, she’d eventually allow us to put her to bed, while awake, […]
The best things come from Amazon.
Lily loves when things come from Amazon. The boxes are extremely fun to climb in and out of and they usually come with paper packing inside! Never mind the toys that may be in there too, we’re mainly just interested in the box.
