It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Just in the past couple of days, Lillian has learned how to clap. She loves to bounce her head and clap to music. I'm glad she likes music...and dancing. We do a lot of dancing around here.

We are really looking forward to Lil's first Christmas. And it's hard to believe but her birthday is right around the corner. How is it that she is almost ONE already?! Sniff, sniff...I'm feeling very emotional about it!

First trip to the Cincinnati Zoo for the Festival of Lights with Grandmother and Grandfather Fry. There weren't many animals out but when we saw the giraffes, Lillian roared at them like a lion.

Lillian was very helpful in picking out the perfect tree for her first Christmas.

This is the one!

Trimming the tree...Lil supervised.

What do you mean I can't eat the lights?!

We're happy college basketball is back in full swing. Lil loves to root for Xavier!
