Since our last blog, Lily has started Daycare, I've started school, and we've unpacked every room in the house except my craft room! Well, life is hectic. Mike starts teaching next week so he's hard at work getting his class ready. I'm really enjoying my classes and thus far I've been able to keep school at school so that when I'm home, Lily and Mike don't have to share me.

This past weekend we went up north and visited the lot where my parents are building the house. Here it is as of Sept 2nd (when Lily turned 13 months)


We also are excited to report that Lily took her first step this past Monday! She was at the campsite with Nana and decided to walk towards her! It was very exciting. Since then, Lily has decided that EVERYTHING is fair game to climb on or over! I've included some photos of Lily from tonight!

I hope that all is well with each of you. Please feel free to drop a line, however, please be patient as my response time is now reached an all time low! PPS

Looking at the north side of the house. They're hoping to be in a bare bones home for Christmas.

Lily is 'talking' to me :-)

Lily is getting soo big! She loves doors! She loves finding out that she can make things move.

Love her teeth!
