My little baby broke her arm :( And broke my heart :(


We were at my cousin's wedding and she fell off the stage and landed on her arm. Broke both bones in her forearm. She was such a trooper. The hardest part was holding her while she was crying and then her saying, "mommy, PLEASE help me, it hurts!" Then later she said, "Mommy, I fell off the stage. And you didn't catch me. Mommy, could you please catch me next time?" She is still in a little pain, and her hand is slightly swollen. But she is running around, clutsy as ever. She is doing nothing to protect it. Jumping off things, falling every second, spinning around in circles 'till she is dizzy. It still breaks my heart to see that little cast on her arm. She is so brave.

We went to Anderson Farms this past weekend and had a blast. It was freezing, but the kids had fun picking pumpkins and riding the barrel ride. Lilia is doing great in school and has made a good friend already. We are busy with football, and our new news. Paperwork!! We are adopting again! This time a boy from Ethiopia. It will be a while since we are just starting the process. Lilia can't stop talking about her baby brother and the fact that she is going to teach him how to eat candy. A skill every kid needs to learn.

First day of school

| at 9:16 PM










FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL PICTURES
Lilia started preschool the last week in August. She loves it and has already made some friends. She says she plays superheros every day at recess with her friends. She can't seem to tell us much of what she does every day except she says, "I learned." It has been hard getting her up early because she is such a late sleeper, but we are getting into a routine.

She is such a funny kid. Today she jumped down from sitting on a pole and said, "I almost knocked my teeth out." We laugh at her all the time. She still loves Star Wars, and sometimes wakes up dreaming about it. The first thing she will talk about is that little droid or the fire and Anakin....etc. So cute!

Birthday Girl

| at 9:05 PM











Lilia had her 4th birthday at the pool. We had such a great weekend with her and our friends/family. She is now officially a "big girl." She got 2 hermit crabs from Grandma and Papa and one already died. Poor Betty. But Grover is alive and well. She won't touch him, but loves to look. It is hard to believe she is so big. 90th percentile for height and 52nd for weight. She is swimming in the deep end by herself, and she LOVES gymnastics. She is always asking, "is it 4 o'clock yet?"

Mandy and Grace come to town!

| at 2:07 PM















One of my bestest friends and her little girl Grace came to visit last week. We had such a great time! The girls are so cute together, when they are sharing and caring. We were on the go the entire time! Garage saling the first day, then to an outdoor market, cute candy store, BBQ, Lilia's pool party for her birthday, the zoo, and a hike. It was such a great time! Can't wait until they move here!! I wish that would happen.

Lilia is still in gymnastics and LOVES it. She has the build for it, and still walks on her toes. She is also starting preschool on the 25th, which I'm happy/sad for. She is bored with me and really will love the learning I think. I will just miss her. It is like the start of her growing up. But she is going to be about 3/10 of a mile from our house and she is only gone 3 hours for 3 days a week. I will live :(

We are getting ready to celebrate Lilia's 4th b-day with a Wonder Pets theme. Besides Star Wars-The Clone Wars, Wonder Pets is her favorite show. We are going to the pool with her closest friends and family. It is hard to believe she is already 4.

We are loving summer. Swimming, fishing, hiking, etc. Football starts in 2 weeks and then life as we know it is over!! It is the busiest time of year for all of us, but we wouldn't change it! We are a football family.
