Brylee Kate...

my best friend, Kim, and her family stopped by for the night while on their vacation(July 14-15). this was the first time that our girls were able to meet. Brylee Kate is about 3 1/2 months older than Lilly. she was due on the same day i was due with Trinity (sept. 16th, if i remember correctly), but she made her grand entry in july. Lilly and Miss B.

cooking some supper for everyone.

cheese!

yummy pudding!

i wonder how much she actually ate!

wow! now that's a mess!

she looks good enough to eat!

another day at the zoo (in june)

let's get going!

Lilly checking out the ducks! she wasn't interested in finding the alligator.

Trinity and Abby trying to spot the alligator.

yuk!!

Trinity is telling Abby something about the snakes.

Trinity and Abby checking out the fish.

Lilly was so excited when she saw this bird. it was sitting right on the handrail. she wanted to hold it.

this iguana is in the same spot every time we come to the zoo. i had to take the usual picture to be consistent!

mr. turtle having his lunch. Trinity was pleased that he was eating his vegetables.

loved this picture! Trinity, Abby, and Erin. but no Lilly.

and here is Lilly!

Miss Trinity doing what she does best!

feeding the giraffes.

Lilly's turn!

Yay!! Lilly is so excited to feed the ducks!

up she goes!

Living art...

this is how i left my two sweet girls in the living room...

Painting fun...

this is what could go wrong with a fun painting project with a 1 year old...

Lilly decides to test the paint on her finger...

apparently it is more fun to paint on her body...

even Trinity got in on the fun...

and now it is time for a bath!

Lilly chillin'
