I have the best sister in the whole wide world!!!!!

Family pictures in July...... All I can say is HOTT! Luckily we ended up with some pretty cute pics! Obviously updating the blog on my iPad is not such a good idea... It posted 3 times and missed the picture of the Horton Clan... Ill update soon!

I'm testing this on my iPad

My Tuesday child

Its been a long time... I have about a year of making up to do. How about I just pick up at 18 months!

Lilly's baby book only goes up to a year and then gives you a silly little page for every year after that so Im going to have to use this blog to record all the funny things this child does.... get ready for an over load of Lilly-isms!

Words-
Momma
Dadda
Popa
Jen
Dane (who she associates with the schoold bus that they wait for Dane to get off of)
Doogie
Baaby (in a very southern twang)
Brooobeee (sounds a lot like baaby)
Down (she doesn't know up so says down for up too)
Done
Naana (very much banana)
Juice
Hey
Whats that
Caca
Flower
Jing
Allie
Bye Bye
Night Night
eyes
mouth
shoes

The animal sounds she knows well are doggie, cat, horse, cow, gorilla, sheep and alligator. She has recently started shaking her hear yes and no appropriately. She can recognize her eyes, noes, mouth, ears, hair, tounge, teeth, toes and belly button. My mom has recently taught her to bat her eyes (im telling you she is drama!). Her favorite game to play is the mean face stare game.

Our little Fishy

This little child is a swimming queen, she was much happier in the water splashing around than in this silly float! I'm sure she was thinking "this is for babies"! Ive seen Baby Aquatics swim leasons for infants from like 3 months and how they teach them to swim... I honestly think Lilly could handle it. We layed her on her back and she was so relaxed and floated and her legs kicked like a little fish! I think by the end of the summer Im going to have a tan little girl from all the swimming!

Blogging... or the lack there of!

Well after a HUGE catastrophe in the Dehmel house hold, I have decided to blog again and keep up with it as much as possible! Wednesday, I went to edit a few pictures and upload some to facebook, when I finished I went to transfer a few to my external hard drive... little did I know that a few seconds later I would loose 3 years of pictures :( I feel like Ive lost something so priceless. So lesson learned... back up ALL pictures from now on no matter what! So what that means to my Blog is that I will be uploading and updating a whole lot more.

My little monster is almost 7 months old and somehow I can not even believe time is going by this fast. But I enjoy seeing her learn so very much!!!!!

Having a BIG dog

So this is my everyday life! Poor Butter and Allie have no chance at keeping their toys anymore now that the taz-manian Devil lives with us!!!!! these toys here were the little ones Christmas present and I'm pretty sure they didnt even last a week. And what is a dogs facination with water hoses? because im pretty sure that knox has disected the poor water hose in my back yard more than one time! Lastly he has this need to dig up roots from underground, even though my trees are still Alive?????? What am I going to do with this dog??????? But I still love him!
