Hi there, it's me, Lily.

My Mom just figured out how to make the font on this blog big enough that people can actually read it! Maybe we will get some cool comments now??

My 1st Trip to the Zoo!!

On "Fieldtrip Friday" mom and dad took me to the zoo. We got lucky because Dad got the day off so he came along too. We met our friends Aubrey and Summer there. We saw kangaroos in the outback...

Getting a little tired :) Sometimes mom and dad were more excited than me, but I still had fun.

We saw monkeys (my favorite!!!) I did a lot of "oo-oo-ah-ah" (that's my monkey sound).

We saw giraffs so tall...

and fish too!

What an awesome, FUN Fall day with family and friends!

:) Next I am going to post some pics of all the fun artsy projects I've been doing this Fall.

Halloween Day

Halloween was a special day. Mom and I did our 1st baking project together. We made pumpkin chip cookies!! The dough was YUMMY.



Earlier in the day we made "spiders" out of crackers, peanut butter and pretzel sticks. My friend Aubrey came over to make them too. It was fun. Really Mom and Summer made the spiders while Aubrey and I sampled them. Pictures of those to come...

Lily is a trick-or-treating MACHINE!!!

I love trick-or-treating!! After we went to the first house I had it all figured out. I go to people's doors and they give me cool stuff. What could be better?? Yes, that's me dragging Grandma to the next house. Behind us is Elizabeth and Violet (the dinosoar) and some of my favorite neighbors (I kind of wanted to go home with them.)
The neighbor at the end of our block had a BIG Halloween display. Here I am waving bye-bye to him. I held my pumpkin bag the entire time and kept my ears on. My Mom was shocked at how well I behaved. She kept calling me her "big girl."

This is right before we left the house to hit the streets. As you can tell, I'm ready and waiting for everyone else.

Mom and I were both black cats.

Trying to sneak a cookie off of the table.

Done for the night. Except that I wanted to keep going. Mom said I should save some candy for the rest of the little kids. We got home and Dad and I went through my loot. My next door neighbor Helen even made me a special cookie :)
