Sorry about all of the links, hopefully I'll get 4 shared figured out tomorrow, but for now I think I need to turn my computer off before my blood starts to boil!!!

Lillian's tooth has a buddy.....

her second tooth broke through last night (which is probably why she got up at 4 this morning!) I brought her into bed with me, which I haven't done in a really long time. So we got up around eight because she started crying so I knew that she had some discomfort because she never cries in the morning (actually she hardly cries at all.....except when she's ready for a bottle!) So she's taken 2 of the teething tablets so far today and hasn't needed any more yet. I'm just glad that she's getting some relief with them, especially since they're 100% natural! So that's our big news for today! If you click on the picture it will enlarge it and you can just see her teeth!

I thought that I would change things up a bit and change the header.....plus I absolutely love this picture of Lilly and I wanted to see it more often. We went to the post office today and the grocery store. We got our new insurance cards today and they put Lilliam instead of Lillian......what a horrible name that would be! So I've been on hold with them twice today for 20 minutes both times to try and get it changed but I'm not wasting all of our minutes on that! So I'll call after 9 since they're open till 10. I'm doing a little more packing today. I've also got to go through my stamp sets and decide which ones I'm going to put on ebay......I've got a little over 100 sets, half of which I hardly use, but nonetheless they're still hard to get rid of! I'd like to think that I'll get back into it once we move and possibly have more space because having your supplies in one room and creating in another room can get quite annoying. I think that's why I enjoy digital scrapbooking so much......all of my supplies are on my computer, plus I can use everything over and over so it's way cheaper. Well I better get back to packing....yuck! Anyways, hope everyone enjoys the new header!

I thought I would try and get Lilly's Valentine pics since she was being really silly tonight. She started to get a little fussy when I put her jeans on, but as soon as I made some funny voices she started smiling!

BREAKING NEWS.......

and when I say breaking I mean breaking! Lillian's first tooth is breaking through!!! I thought that I noticed something last night but the white was really faint. Sure enough today you can see the little tooth. I gave her a couple of Hyland's Teething Tablets to help any discomfort she might be in. This morning when I was feeding her I put some puffs on the tray to see if she would pick them up herself......well she picked them up but as you can see she missed a little. She's just practicing for what Aunt Betsy will be doing to her next time Lilly visits.........lets just say it's a little family tradition that will make for a lot of cute pictures!

ARRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!

Lillian is a REALLY heavy wetter and she soaks through her Fuzzi Bunz left and right. She currently has cotton inserts, but we'll be switching to Hemp which absorb more. So we're waiting to get those until our taxes come in so until then I'm using disposable since her current Fuzzi Bunz are a wee bit small. So I thought that I would try a different brand of disposable since Pampers are the most expensive (but they work.) We tried Huggies before and they stunk. So this time around I thought I'd try LUVS.........well.........they SUCK!!!!!! I have to put packing tape across them because the adhesive strips won't stick to the darn diaper! The absorbancy of the diaper doesn't matter to me if I can't get the stupid things to stay on her! So I guess I'll be going through a roll of tape since I'm not about to throw them out.....but LUVS will certainly be getting an email from me!

Just a page that I worked on last night while Dan was watching the X Games.....I can stand watching the skiing and snowboarding stuff.....just not the snowmobile racing! We enjoyed our visit with Dan although it seemed to go by really quickly. It's funny how Lillian reacts to Dan when he first walks through the door....she gets really quite like she doesn't realize who he is and then a few moments later she's laughing! I think that she really enjoys having someone new to look at. She was really good yesterday at Grandma Bombria's birthday party and went the whole day without taking a nap!

One more page for the day! I really like how this one turned out and I'm happy that I'm finally scrapping these old pics!

just noticed there is a typo in the above layout that I'll have to fix tomorrow......I HATE TYPOS!!!!

I know, I know.....you've seen this picture twice before, but I've never scrapped it! Since I don't have my camera I thought that I would start working on scrapping the old pics of Lillian before I forgot anything! One down....a billion more to go!

Small little side note- I started cleaning our drive on our computer and putting all of the pictures that I take of Lilly onto CD since the hard drive is getting full and making the computer slow. I realized just how many pics I've taken since she's been born! I've filled 4 cd's so far and I already notice a huge difference with the computer. I think that I need to make sure that when we have another baby (not for a few years.....doctors orders!!) that I make sure that they don't get what Betsy has.....second baby syndrome. I always feel so bad because there's all these pictures of me and not as many as her......but then again she and my dad always say that I'm adopted since I'm so short so I don't feel as bad! Okay I went way off to the middle of no where with that and I'm going to shut up and go to bed!

Another old picture....she was so small even for her preemie outfits that I had to pin things so they would fit her better!

I miss my camera :o( .....I feel so lost without it (sad I know!!) So since I can't upload new pics, I'll upload old yet new pics that I haven't shown before. And let me be the first to say......I am so HAPPY that Dan trimmed that thing.....he looks much more handsome with it trimmed!!!

I was just going through some of the pics of Lilly when she first came home and this is one of my favs......my little sweet pea and her daddy. Can I just say that I hate packing! I especially hate the fact that I have to pack things away that makes this place feel like an empty canvas. I can't stand not having pictures on the walls! I only have a couple more boxes left so we'll be picking some up this weekend when Dan comes. I guess at this point there's no need to rush until I'm told that they found someone to rent it out. The apartment across from us was vacated around 3 weeks ago and they've already cleaned it all up, which they usually only do when there's new people moving in.......so a part of me is hopeful that they'll be able to get somone in here before the end of March. I won't hold my breath though.

Oh one funny kinda of gross but cute thing......last night I was giving Lilly a bath. I heard this strange noise and then all of the sudden smelled something gross. She farted in the water......ewwwww!!! Smelled just like her daddy.......he'd be so proud!

This was a picture from last week. Lillian doesn't cry a lot and she does a really good job at self soothing, which is what she's doing here! I was in the middle of making her bottle when all of the sudden I heard this strange sucking noise and I couldn't figure out what she was sucking on!

This weekend didn't go by to fast thankfully. Saturday was spent driving around the Bennington area to get a feel for where we'd like to rent. I'm not going to be to picky as long as wherever we end up is clean and most importanly safe for Lilly. We know that it won't be longterm, but we also need to be comfortable where we are since we're not planning on buying a house until the winter time and even then it may take some time to find what we like. I'm just really looking forward to this move. It feels like everything is FINALLY falling into place. Sunday me and Dan went to Saratoga while Grandma watched Lilly! This will be the only new pic of Lilly this week since I left the camera with Dan to take pictures of any potential places to live......she got a little tuckered out learning her ABC's and 123's with Leap and Lilly last week!

What sound does a lion make.....

Listen here!

My little snowbunny!

The first time that I put Lilly in her snowsuit last week I started laughing so hard I had to leave the room. Her little legs only fit 3/4 of the way down and every now and then her face can get lost in it which is why I put the hat on her so I don't have to zip it all the way up. I have to get her all bundled up again today because we have to go pick up her Curious George DVD and soundtrack......I know I'm excited....really I am!!!!!! That is one thing I won't miss about this complex.....getting the mail at the main office......it's so annoying!

Lookie what I got in the mail.....

This totally awesome gift from Amelia!!!! It's a huge clipboard (larger than the regular size) that I can put on Lilly's walls once we move and I can change out the picture (since I take so many of them!!) She has been way too sweet to me and I really appreciate it! All of my stuff, including the project I was working on sending her has been packed away since I started packing for the move and I now I want to pull it all out to finish it!

It's a bit chilly today!
