A video of which Levi and I laugh at Harper....

you, however, may not find it quite as amusing. Watch her eyes as I blow raspberries.

Lilly's First Recital

Lilly has her first dance recital on Saturday. She danced to Frosty the Snowman. She is the the third from the left (or the second chid from the left). She did a great job and we were so proud of her. She came a long way from the first classes in the fall when she cried and was too nervous to even go into class!

"She's Bothering Meeee!"

The various ways in which Lilly manages to torture her baby sister!

Loading her up with toys....

Feeling her hair because Lilly thinks it's soft.....

Putting stickers on her hands.....

I guess Harper better get used to it. Before long, she can get even with Lilly!

Christmas Outtakes

These photos were pretty cute but they didn't make it onto the Christmas card. You'll have to wait until you get yours in the mail!

This gift arrived a little early but loved all the same!

Look what we got under our tree!

Silent Night.

Make sure you scroll down and read all the other posts I tried to catch up on!

Random

Here are some random pictures that I thought I should post. I have a million pictures on the camera but most haven't made it to the blog.

Harper snoozing.

Love this little mouth and features.

Lilly before we went to dinner for Levi's birthday.

This is how we give tubbies around here. Lilly loves taking a bath with her sister. Harper seems to enjoys baths as well. If you look closely, you can see Harper's band-aid from her 1-month well baby check.

Ahearn Family Christmas Party

We went to the Ahearn Family Christmas Party on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We had a great time seeing the family and introducing Harper to the extended family.

I think Haley and Harper are 2 days apart

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 2010 was spent at Grandma and Grandpa Henning's house. We celebrated with (Great) Grandma and Grandpa LaBrosse, Aunt Debbie and Uncle Jim and all of the aunts and uncles. Harper met Uncle Matt and Aunt Kara for the first time. We also found out that Lilly and Harper will have their first cousin on the Henning side sometime next summer. Congrats to Josh and Tamra! We are so happy for them!

Lilly at Dance Class

Here are some short videos of Lilly at dance. Now, granted this is only the 3rd week so let's give her the benefit of the doubt, ok? I'm just happy that she wanted to go to dance today and that she didn't even think about crying. In fact, she said, "bye mom" and walked right in!

She's supposed to be salluting and marching in the second video but instead she walks tiptoe with her hand on her head! She got the marching thing down soon after but her teacher literally had to lift Lilly's legs up to show her how to do it (like she didn't know!)

In case you were wondering....

What a 32 week (as of tomorrow) pregnant lady looks like!

Lilly and Sully: A Love-Hate Relationship

Levi described it well. Lilly and Sully are, well, like brother and sister. Sometimes they really enjoy each others company. Other times....they fight like siblings. "Sully took my tooooooyy!" or "He's bothering me." and then two seconds later Lilly is laying on the floor petting his ears and saying "I love my doggie!"

Sully actually got IN the bath tub with Lilly today!

In case you were wondering....that's a bath tub marker on the wall. Yes, it comes off.

Lilly's 3rd Birthday Party

On Sunday, August 22nd, we had Lilly's 3rd birthday party at our house. The weather was perfect and everyone had a great time. Lilly was absolutely spoiled by her friends and family! Thank you to everyone who came!

Pictures in no particular order....

Toy Story themed party!

Lilly, Levi and Sarah (I'm 29 weeks pregnant here!)

Grandma and Grandpa Campbell and Lilly

Lilly said she wanted chocolate cake with chocolate frosting for a whole month before her party!

Addy, Adele and Lilly blowing bubbles.

Cowgirl Lilly. Move over Woody and Jessie-there's a new sheriff in town!

Two Tutu Ladies Model Shoot

Lilly won a contest to be a model for the fall line of tutus from Two Tutu Ladies. On Sunday morning we headed down to Alma to have Lilly's pictures taken. She of course cried during the group shot and I had to talk her into doing the individual shots but I think the photographer eventually got some cute ones! She was dressed as a ladybug. I just love the cute hat!

Group shot before she started crying.

New Puppy

On August 3rd, our beloved dog, Dozer got hit by a car in front of our house and passed away. He is absolutely irreplaceable but we were able to get a new puppy. We named him Sully (short for Sullivan from the movie Monsters, Inc.) and he is a mastiff as well. He seems to be a very well-behaved little guy. Lilly is really enjoying having an energetic new puppy around.
