It's a Giggle-icious VIDEO!

Our Lily-Bug has discovered her voice. Just this week, she has learned how to scream, squeal and giggle. We don't know what it is that has tickled her funny bone, but suddenly the world is hilarious.

Of course, with this newfound skill comes the drama queen! She has already learned that if she coughs, screams or squeals really loud, she gets immediate attention - and the coughs are so obviously fake. What a ham! Did she inherit Daddy's acting skills?

Enjoy this video of our little giggle monster. It's a little long but worth every second (at least to us).

Nakey Picture Time!!

It had to happen sooner or later. Every parent must have that incriminating photograph of their precious child with the "nakey butt". After all, how else are we going to embarrass her on her 16th birthday?

As Mommy was changing little LilyBug today, inspiration struck and the nakey photo session began. I (Joy) must admit, I am TERRIBLE at taking pictures. No matter what I do, my pictures always come out blurry. For every 1 picture that is in focus, about 300 are blurry. So..these aren't the best possible pictures, but they're the best out of all the pictures we took today. I'm impressed - Lily was not fussy at all - although she didn't want to look at me, she kept looking away (I guess she was shy about having her nakey little behind on camera!). Here are a couple more (and one with clothes on so no one thinks we are completely sick).

The last picture was taken on her "worm". It's a mat that lays on the floor with toys hanging above her. She LOVES to lay on her worm. I also took some video of her playing on the mat and will hopefully get it online soon, if Daddy can show me how to do it!

We love and miss you all!!!
