Step by Step...Oooh, girl!!!

Yes, that's right, we have a walker! Lilly's gaining confidence with each step and in no time she'll be running laps around the dining room table. But for now, her walking resembles that of Frankenstein- appropriate for this time of year, I must say.

All the fun is over now and we're having to safeguard EVERYTHING in our house. Such a fun time of year.....so many changes happening at the big "1-year old" mark.

Age 1....and some Halloween Fun

The invitations are out, and we're getting ready for Lilly's big birthday event. Let's be honest, though, this party is really a celebration for Mehdi and me. We'll be celebrating that we Lilly's still alive, and that we made it through the first year still in love with each other.

I'm so excited for Halloween this year- Lilly gets squeely about the festive decorations at our house. Witnessing the joy she has over ghosts, jack-o-lanterns, and sparkling skulls makes this time of year so much fun! I feel so blessed to have so much excitement and joy in my life right now.
