Lily 11 Months Old & Cinderella Zoe

















Lily is 11 months old today! My baby girl is growing up (as they all do). She's doing really well with walking while holding on to mama or dada's fingers and on track to walking on her own by one year of age. She's also into climbing. She loves climbing her sister's princess chair and anything else she can explore. We even caught her trying to climb the tricycle. She also has such a fun and happy personality, laughing at her sister and even making herself laugh, too. Hearing it just warms my heart.

Zoe has been role playing a lot these days. She's into acting out Cinderella. We take turns being Cinderella, the fairy godmother, Anastasia, dancing with the prince and losing the glass slipper. It's so sweet to see her performing and using pretend voices. She's also into playing firefighter and fashion show.

As for us, Steven surprised me with a lovely dinner last night to celebrate my upcoming 25th (wink wink) birthday. We're going to see the "Dark Night" movie tomorrow night and Sunday, we're hosting a summer BBQ. Lots of birthday celebrations! Plus, my mom is coming up today, too!

A Quick Update, Photos and Red Sox

Click here to see all the Lewis Family photos we took on July 2oth.

I took the girls to Arizona to see my family and to finally meet my new nephew, Adam. We had a such a great time and took lots of pictures. I'm still getting them organized but will post them soon.

We're planning to really enjoy these last few weeks of summer. I hope we can get in a few more days at the beach before the fall madness begins. It's hard to believe that fall is just around the corner.

I went to the Red Sox game last night with my friend Sue (my friend who started, http://www.girlsoxnation.com/) and her friend Lauren. What a game and what a blast! Sox were up 10-0 in the first inning but then trailed 14-16 by the 8th. They rallied back at the bottom of the 8th to win 19-17! WOW! I had a so much fun and it was a great game to see live. For a quick but more detailed re-cap, click here.

I've also updated some of Lily's Milestones and Zoe's Funny Things on the side of the blog. Check it out.
