Where are my teeth?

I have been trying so hard to get a photo of Lilly's teeth and the other night I was determined and it still didn't really work! haha 

First I tried the sneak attack by taking her water....no teeth....

Next I tried to mover her lip down so we could see her teeth...AND SHE BIT ME! haha

 

Lastly she was done with dinner and was whinning a bit and you can kind of see her bottom teeth haha

Sorry Auntie Amy, we are trying to get a good photo but it is just not working ahha. 

Halloween Decorations

Lilly and I decided that it was time to start getting ready for Halloween! So while she went down for her nap I went into the attic and brought down all our decorations. 

As you can see Lilly is really interested by all of these little treasures, during dinner she couldn't keep her eyes off them! 

  

Just the 3 of us

 
Pinckney could not make it to the game with us, so instead of being 4 of us there, we had 3:). Baby John did not miss out on any of the action. 

GAME DAY!!

    
The day started out with some fun cousin playtime! Dzia Dzia, Aunt Linda, Uncle Thaddeus and Addison made it to South Bend Friday night. Addison and Lilly spent the morning playing together and getting ready to nap. Addison was so sweet to bring her cousin a present, that Lilly was able to open all by herself! haha And Addison then had fun just playing with the bag:).

  

After the morning nap, it was time to tailgate! So we dressed the girls in their uniforms and we were on our way. We got to see so many people, Aunt Bonnie came and suprised us! Aunt Janice and Uncle Mike were there, along with Aunt Sue and Uncle Pat and Aunt Kori stopped by to say hello. 

 

The girls had fun playing and eating while we were out there.

    

  

Once we made it in the game Lilly LOVED IT! She danced with the band, Addison cheered on the team from her seat as well. The Girls did so good at the game we can't wait to take them again! Addison even took a nap in the game. 

    

After the game we went back to Maw Maws, ordered Sunny Italy again and the girls continued to play:). This time Aunt Linda got in on the action:).

    

Pre Game

Lilly wanted to prepare for the Irish playing on Saturday by wearing her Notre Dame dress on Friday. We also discovered while we were out one day that her hair now fits in a pony tail!! After getting all dressed up we went to Lunch with Aunt Sue, Aunt Tonya, and Grandma Rutz - It was so nice to be able to see everyone while we were in town, and those that we had not seen yet we ready to cheer on the Irish with them at the game on Saturday! 

Here is Lilly in her Irish pride and matching ponytail!

    

Sunny Italy and more

We knew that we could not leave South Bend without getting our sauce fix from Sunny Italy and beginning Lilly's addiction to the sauce as well. So one night we took her for dinner at the restaurant and we discovered that not only does she love the sauce as much as everyone else, she loves my favorite cheese raviolis as well! The ladies there were calling her the Diva because of all of her animal print she was wearing:). 

  

We all had some much fun going out to eat that night, that we took her to another one of our favorites, Outback the next night. She is quite the social butterfly. :) 

Miss America

Last Sunday Mimi came to Little Rock and picked up Lilly and I and took us to South Bend to spend the week with Maw Maw and go to Lilly's first Notre Dame football game. We had a blast! As most of you know we LOVE to shop :) and one day at Target we discovered a new talent of Lilly's... she is ready for a parade. 

Mi Mi had her in the shopping cart when, Lilly turned around, stood up and began waving at everyone! We were laughing so hard pushing her around Target as she was having a big time! haha

Yummy!

We have been trying out new foods for Lilly and tonight she got to try spaghetti for the first time,  it was a huge hit! It was quite messy hahah she had to get immediately into the tub.

Anyone that has been around Pinckney and Lilly together knows that she is becoming such a Daddy's girl, she sees him and laughs and screams it is so cute. Anyways, this is my new favorite photo of the two of them:). 

ATV

Pinckney tells Lilly that she is our little ATV (all terrain vehicle for those of you that aren't sure ahha) she is constantly crawling over things, through things and into things. The other morning I was putting some clothes away only to find our little ATV on another mission. 

Slippers

We do not want Miss Lilly to get a cold so we had to cover her feet the other day when we were so lucky to get some cooler weather. Her Miss Ann, Aunt Tate and Aunt Kelly sent her some slippers last spring that now fit purrrrfect. (haha) They were too cute not to take a picture of her little kitty feet. 

New Car Seat

  
With all of the growing that Lilly has been doing she was becoming more and more uncomfortable in the car, so we decided that it was time to move her up to her big girl car seat. I think we have put her in a recliner....she loves it! She was beginning to really not enjoy going places in the car, and now she just sits back there and sings and talks to herself haha. 

Hunting Season

Well I have and continue to fight tooth and nail for this baby girl to never wear camo, but lets me honest I am not sure I will win this battle with Pinckney as her daddy. haha Lilly has been helping her Daddy get ready for hunting season already. 

She helped him get his four wheeler ready....

 (and yes they did take it for a spin around the block) 

 

And this afternoon helped him tune his duck calls....

  

She did have fun with the box as well (I think this means there is still hope HA! )
