Lily's Birthday! (part 1)

We have good old fashioned dial-up internet connection so it works better if I don't post more than 4 or 5 pictures at a time, but I had to share Lily's birthday so this will be a two part post. :)

Lily celebrated her first birthday on Saturday. We spent the morning at Ollie's soccer game. Lily loves to watch him play. She gets so excited everytime that she sees the ball. She would love it if she could get in and play. After her nap we went to the park for the rest of the day.




There is a fun park about two miles from our home that we decided to walk to. Spencer and I both love to be outside and our kids inherited that from us! They don't mind being in the stroller for a long while.



Lily loves to swing. Before her cast went on she didn't hold her head up and have strong enough back muscles to do much swinging. With her cast she didn't fit in the swing. So... this is a new, much loved activity. Anytime she hears the swings (chains creaking) she gets super excited. For her, this was the perfect birthday party!



This is a blurry swinging Lily but you can see her smile. :)



Lily also likes to go down the slide (especially if her favorite person, Ollie, is waiting for her at the bottom).

After the park we went home for the cake and icecream- now for part 2.
