Hello to all my family and friends!

So much has happened! I had my first Christmas! It was so great! Mummy and I sang Happy Birthday to Jesus. It was a great birthday party that went on for 5 days! I got to see my whole family! They gave me so many nice things. Nana, Pa, Aunty Katie, Uncle Ross, Uncle Ben and Christelle came to our house for Christmas and we also went to Granma and Da's farm.

Mummy and Daddy gave me this bag. I'm so clever I can sit in it! They gave me some really fun toys too! I got a train the moves and plays music. I like to dance to it. My family gave me lots of toys and some nice clothes too.

This is my big cousin carter and my little cousin Faith. We had lots of fun at Christmas. Carter is fun to play with. He showed my how to roll a ball.

When I stand next to Faith she is almost as tall as me but Mummy says I'm 5 months older. When we are bigger we will play together.

Granma and Da like to give me big cuddles!
This is my Da. He makes me laugh all the time.

Daddy gave me a special book for Christmas about a princess.

Aunty Treenie came to visit us and she gave me a fire truck that i can ride on. It plays music and so is so much fun!

Mummy makes me smile. This is Granma and Da's Christmas tree. I love Christmas trees. Mummy and Daddy smile when i look at them coz they make me laugh!

Mummy and Daddy said they are building me a brand new house. Here is a photo of the workmen pouring what Daddy calls the "slab".

My Nana and Pa came home for Christmas. It had been a long time since I had seen them and I didn't recognise them at first. But now they have come over lots and we have fun together. Mummy taught me to say Nan as a surprise for when they came back but i surprised them by saying Pa as well! Pa thinks my blue eyes are really nice. Pa has blue eyes just like Daddy. I can also say Bubba. Mummy always calls me Bubba.

Nana has bathed me a lot lately. I love the bath!

Nana and Mummy are a bit silly together!

This is my friend Jenna and she turned one. This is at her party.

Mummy and Daddy took me swimming and for a picnic at Lawson pool. It was lots of fun! I was crawling around in the little pool. Daddy says i crawl very well now. I even stood up in my cot the other day! I wish I could walk. Nana says it wont be long before I walk. I am eating lots of yummy foods like spaghetti boglanaise, tuna mornay, veges, fruit, yogurt, cheese and lots more! I love food!

Well, i have to get back to playing with my new toys and books.

I love you all.

Love Lily

To all my family and friends,









I have been really busy this last month. So many things have happened. Mummy tells me it's Christmas soon and so she was putting this funny hat on my head to take photos. It was a bit scratchy but we had lots of fun! Mummy has been reading me the story of Christmas about baby Jesus! I love it!





My gums have been a bit sore lately and one morning I woke up and there were 2 little things sticking out! Daddy calls them toothy pegs. Can you see them?








I have been practising rocking back and forth on my knees getting ready to crawl. I practise in my cot but I bang my head sometimes. Today (29.11.07) I suprised Mummy and crawled for the first time! It's so much fun! I want to do it all the time. I end up under the lounge and table sometimes and bump my head. But Mummy always gives me nice cuddles and makes it feel better. Daddy says I'm very cheeky!

I love bath time! Daddy was making me smile for this photo. I love when Daddy gets home from work and plays with me in the bath.

I love to play on the floor. I can sit up all by myself now! But I do fall

over sometimes. I have learnt so much! I can talk now too! I can say Dad, Dad, Dad! Mum. And Mummy is trying to teach me Nana to suprise Nana and Pa for when they come home to see us. I havn't seen them since I was 9 days old, Mummy tells me.

I miss them and can't wait to see them!

Mummy tells me to say 'Happy Christmas' to everyone! See you all soon.

Love and kisses,

Lily
