We had a really fun day today celebrating Lilly bug. This morning while Mike was at school Lilly and I made cupcakes and I let Lilly take an extra long bath because she LOVES to play in the water. After bathtime we had hot chocolate with whip cream on top. :) Mike came home and we sang happy birthday to her and ate cupcakes, well Lilly just licked all the frosting off and kept asking for another muffin :) Lilly got to open a ton of presents from family that we got in the mail and presents from Mike & I. 
Lilly LOVES to help daddy and use his tools so we got her very own tools to use now, and she is in heaven! 
Lilly also enjoys anything art/crafty and Lilly's Aunt & Uncle D. (and cousins) gave Lilly this awesome tracing projector.
We played with Lilly's new toys for a little bit and then went out to lunch at McDonalds. After lunch we went to Lilly's very first movie in the theature! We saw Bolt and it was really cute, Lilly had a blast and ate an entire box of rasinettes.
After the movie we went back home and played with Lilly's new playdough from uncle Dan, now Lilly has 4 different playdough sets! I need to get her a big storage container to keep it all in. Of course Lilly played more with her tools too.
It was a fun day and we are excited for her Birthday party on Saturday. Mike and Lilly started a special project for the party on New Years Eve and I think we are going to make it a tradition. They are making a Pinata! It's so cute and I will post pictures of the process after the party on Saturday. I want it to be a suprise for Lilly's guests, so I'm going to wait until then.
Happy birthday Lilly Bug, we are so happy to be your Mommy and Daddy. You are our little silly girl and you've brought such great joy to our lives ever since the day we met you. We love you!

Your blog today, brought tears to my eyes and made me remember how special Lilly is and how special you and Mike are. Not everyone could be an adoptive parent but you are in those special few that can.
Love you,
Mom
Hey Amanda!
I don't know if you have heard of this but I saw it on "seriously so blessed" the blog parody, anyway she has little ads on her sidebar of parents looking to adopt, you just click on their pic and it takes you to their blog, if you did this I'd for sure put it on my blog. Hope things are going well for you and your family!
