Possibly the last pictures I post of Charlie and Lily in 2008! Happy New Year!

Lily turns 4!

I have an excuse for not posting on Lily's actual birthday this year, it's on Christmas and I was busy celebration with my kids and never made it to a computer until today.

I can not believe that my baby is four years old! She really is the light of my life and my funny bone. When she smiles it lights up my day and makes everything bright and beautiful. Travis and I are so blessed to be given such a talented, FUNNY, and genuine little girl . There is not an hour that goes by that she is not telling us how much she loves us.

Lily, I hope you know that the sun rises and sets in you and I am the luckiest mommy in the world to have you as a daughter. You are loved to the moon and back by everyone who meets you. You have such a breathless charm about you and I am totally enchanted. I am yours, love, Mommy

Just a few more days

This coming Saturday is Lily's birthday party at Columbia Marionette Theater. I don't know if Lily is going to make it. Between a tree full of presents and the thought of her party coming up she just might explode. Every day she asks me if it's her birthday/Christmas yet and each day I tell her no, not yet, she seems more and more discouraged as if the day will never come. Bless her heart, I feel bad for her, it's torture! I think it's torture for me because my sweet, sweet girl is turning 4 and it makes me sad to see time flying by so very fast.

Travis is flying out in the morning for Texas. He is sick with something, not really sure what, but fever, sore throat and congested. He's pretty miserable.

Charlie is trying to add to his small collection of teeth but just can't seem to cut anymore. He only has four and I swear he is getting 4 more all at the same time. He has been a little bit fussy and needy.

Besides that, everything else is same old, same old. Just looking forward to Christmas this year. Every year it seems to be more special than the year before.

Brunch with Santa

Sunday we had brunch with Santa at the Summit Club. Lily was star struck, Chancellor was a bit skeptical but figured out soon that this really was Santa, and Charlie, well he liked him from a distance and kept saying, "HO HO HO!" Sitting in his lap was another story.
