January thru February (2009)

So sorry it's been so long since our last post. :(
Lots has been going on in our family. My surgery didn't go as smoothly as it should have. The surgeon ended up re-injuring the old CSF leak site and had to repair it. I spent a night in St. Paul's as a precaution. I've been in a lot of pain but am managing with the help of family and friends. I'm back to work at the end of the month. So far, the doctor is pleased with how things are going. So I'm pleased.
It also doesn't help that our "good" camera has been out of commission for quite some time now. So, I haven't really been taking as many pictures as I used to. But I felt guilty that I have nothing up from after Christmas. I also haven't posted the Baptism pictures from October. So, I'll start with just random shots from January and February. :) Enjoy.

This video is actually from right after Christmas. My Dad got me this butterfly toy for the "Bad Santa" gifts. Lily LOVES it! Kind of freaks her out a little bit, but she loves chasing it down. :)
Lily meeting Monet Boje for the first time. They are cousins, dunno to what degree though. (Monet is Kevin's cousin's baby).

Not sure what to think of Monet

Lily sneezed in Auntie Megan's face, and this was her reaction!

We had a playdate with Quin (one of the babes from our prenatal group). They enjoyed having snacks together and playing with all the different toys. :)

Snack time!

Too cute!

Lily laughs so hard when Kevin gives her "Daddy kisses" with his stubbly face. Love hearing her laugh!!
We had a playdate at our place with Vanessa (Lily's babysitter) and her sweet young man, Logan. They play well together and it's cute seeing Lily help Logan with things. :)

Lily's went through this phase where she needed to have her robe, toque and gloves on around the house.It was sure cute. :) She also likes to crawl up into her stroller and say, "Go now".


Lily grabbed this apple out of the fruit bowl and just started biting into it. She did pretty good actually! It's amazing what kids are capable of!

Lily's cute hair that she wasn't impressed with!
You will often find Lily like this between the time of 10am and 11am!

Valentine's Day we bought her a bunch of little things as she's too young to have chocolaty treats, and to be honest, almost all chocolates during this season have nuts/peanuts in them. But she was happy to get little toys. :)
Her first "My Little Pony"
Looking at all her loot!
The pony came with a little brush and she loved brushing EVERYTHING!
