The Replacements

Well, Mommy is probably going to wind down the blog until the New Year. I know all my fans are disappointed, but after the New Year there will be plenty to write about and lots of cute pictures to post, I'm sure.

Until then I thought I'd leave you with these pictures. There is one of Mommy and Daddy and their new friends at the Kosair Christmas party. Mommy calls these new friends "The Replacements." Funny thing is, that is what I call my new friend, George. He is my replacement for Mommy. I love him sooooo much I even got monkey jammies. Who needs Mommy?

Merry Christmas! Happy Hannakuh! Happy New Year! I hope 2009 brings us many blessings and out of the recession.

Love,

Lilly

Going to See Santa!

I went to see Santa Claus this weekend at the Bass Pro Shop! What an experience this was. First, Santa is free at the Bass Pro Shop which is good, considering I'm 13 months old and what are the chances of Mommy and Daddy getting a good picture of me on Santa's lap? Do you want to guess? Do you know me at all? Second, they had a BIG playland set up for all the little kids! What fun! I got to sit in a camp chair by a pint-sized tent while I waited in line, if I were older I could have participated in crafts (make your own reindeer antlers!) and if I were a redneck I could have even shot the reindeer at the "Shoot the Reindeer" booth! If you think I'm kidding then you're forgetting where I live!

You will have to wait to see my pictures with Santa. Mommy is using them for the Christmas cards. Add that to the list of things Mommy is behind on. You would think Mommy had a million other things to do or something! Oh well, that's what makes the holidays fun! The craziness!

I Like Chocolate...

Yummy, chocolate. Eating it made me tired, though, so I had to lay down afterwards and take a little nap.

Not much else to say!

A Penny Saved...

Last weekend my Papa gave me some money! Mommy and Daddy showed me what I'm supposed to do with it. I'm supposed to put it in my piggy bank! It is a much safer bet than the stock market right now. I got a huge tin full of quarters that Papa won at the casino. I put them all into my piggy bank...one by one...by one...by one... It was a very long process but so much fun! I don't know how to get my piggy bank open. Mommy says when the piggy gets full we'll take him to the bank and then put the money in my bank account so I can use it when I'm all grown up! But I'm not allowed to touch it again! Go figure that! That doesn't seem fair, does it? I mean, I really want those designer baby shoes!

DADDY! BUY ME THOSE SHOES!
Daddy says, 'Okay, Lilly.'

Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too? With my Daddy, I eat cake every day.

Love,

Lilly
