The best things

The best things to happen to me... My husband and my baby girl. Both Rob and I are enjoying her more and more everyday. Who knew that was possible.

Our little 15 month old girl is full of new surprises. Her few steps have turned into multiples a day that bring excitement and smiles. It's like she's making this process drag out as long as possible to intensify the joy it brings to our family. Every time Lily takes a few steps, she looks to see who's watching, gets a big smile and claps until she falls down in a fit of giggles. Priceless.

And "hi." Really? Is it that big of a deal to say "hi" and wave? In our house, it's the best of bargaining tools. Lily just learned to do it and knows how charming she is doing it. It melts our hearts and she knows it. Have a bad day? That little "hi" fixes everything. When Lily's in trouble? A big smile and that "hi" and all's forgiven. Who's in trouble? We are! This girl's got us wrapped around her little finger already!

Last, but not least... Kisses! Blowing kisses and giving them happened overnight! She never used to even let us kiss her on the mouth, but somehow, she figured out how to kiss along with the "mmm-muah" sound it's supposed to make.

Priceless. :)
