18 months

My baby turned a year and a half last week so since the weather was chilly, but at least nice today we got outside for a few photos.

In the mornings, when I work at the hospital we walk Lily over to our neighbor’s house a few doors down.  One morning she was carrying her little purse and holding her daddy’s hand.  My heart melted and I thought to myself, I need to get a picture of that.  Well, at 7am it’s a little dark so we took the opportunity tonight.  The purse was one of my recent sewing projects.  I don’t know if it’s motherhood or what, but I’ve been all domestic lately and wanting to learn new skills.  My current project is a baby quilt for Lily’s new baby brother due in February.  I’m also taking a knitting class, so hopefully this winter I’ll put that new skill to good use!

She’s so funny.  When we are getting ready to go somewhere she says, “shoes…hat…coat…” and she’ll hold out her little arm so I can slide the purse on it. It’s great for holding a few little toys for our outings.
