Dec 25th Lily's First Christmas!

Here are some highlights of her first christmas. We went to Great Grandma & Grandpa's on the 24th, but I was too busy to get any photos from that so if you have any, please email them to me. I know there have go to be some good ones of her & Kalia in the rocking chair! And now on with the show! 

Lillian waiting for Tori & Eric with her attractive antlers!  

Now Frank & Lily are being tortured in costume. I think Lily is wondering why Frank got the costume with bells.

The unwrapping begins. Mostly mom did the work and she got bored!
Nice bow!


Are we still unwrapping stuff? 


Jammies from Nana!

Her first of many Mickey Mouse shirts!
Aunt Karen made her a Gator towel set! 

 After all the action is done. Notice the ridiculous loot pile behind her! 

And after all those new toys, she still wanted her seahorse rattle. Which she is no longer allowed to play with because she gets mad at it and yells. It's pretty funny!

Dec 16th - Lillian's Holiday Party

We were told to dress her in something holiday like. So I thought the Santa's helper outfit was the cutest dang think ever. Scott told me I had to take pictures of her, so before I left her at daycare I snapped some really cute ones! 

My favorite one! So sweet! I just want to pinch her little cheeks! 

Dec 9th - Wisconsin Winters Stink!!

I know that none of us that live in Wisconsin want to relive December 9th, but those Floridians who thought they had cold weather need to see just what winter means in the midwest!

The storm was so bad they even closed American TV! That has happened only one other time in the 50+ years! I couldn't believe it! 

This storm was crazy, I think it was something like 18" in one day! Ridiculous! 

This is in our front yard. I think this is a 24" ruler.

Notice only about 6" left at the top!Lillian out in the first big snow! So cute in her snow sack! 

Notice the snow is almost to my knees! That is the TOP step to our front porch. The snow is covering up the other one! 


Poor Scott had to shovel! It was really wet and heavy snow!

Look at the giant snow bank across the street! 
This is our neighbor snow-blowing the drive way. You can get a pretty good look at the amount of snow we got and just how much fun it is when the snowplow comes and dumps tons of snow at the end of the driveway! Our neighbor has got to be about 6" tall... that bank is at his waist!The tress on the side of our houseSo pretty. This is our street after it was all done.The house after much shoveling!

Not only did a ton of snow dump on us, but in the same day Scott's back window in his car blew out! We had to tarp it up so more snow wouldn't get in. The Scott had to shovel so we could move my car out of the garage and get his into the garage. It was a really rough week! 

First time with Rice Cereal!

At her 4 month appointment we got the ok to start giving her stage 1 foods. Her she is on the big opening night! She did pretty well. Here she is wondering what she is eating and why Grandma and Dad are running around with those strange cameras again!

Fun Pics of our 4 month Nugget!

Sleepy girl fell asleep in her car seat! Love the pants and hat!

Turkey Tom

This is the famous Kersten Turkey. I was told we couldn't leave until Lillian had her picture with it. 

Rolling over- Both ways!

So if you are a follower of the Nolins you might remember that Lily first rolled over on Nov 25th. She did the back to front roll over first and I ran all around that house trying to remember where the camera was to capture the it. Here she is and looking a bit stunned!
Then almost exactly 1 month later she went the other way! The last 2 picture you can tell how much she enjoys tummy time. These were taken after she rolled over twice. By this point she was pretty mad I kept putting her on her belly to try and get the moment on camera!
