We have been having a lot of firsts around here lately. We had our <a href="http://www.fellfamilyfun.blogspot.com/2013/09/back-to-school.html" target="_blank">first day</a> of school, first soccer practice and first dance class. Lily has been busy! New stuff is always a little bit difficult for our shy girl. The first dance class went well. She participated and seemed to have fun. Parents were able to stay in the room for the first class so that definitely helped her feel more comfortable. She had her second class yesterday and the parents were asked to wait in the lobby. I kept peeking in and she was doing fine but about half way through she decided she needed me to be in the room for her to be able to finish the class. Hopefully it will keep getting easier for her and she will become more confident. </div>

Lily also started soccer a couple weeks ago. I played all through my childhood and loved it so I was super excited to get her started. Nathan and I even got talked into coaching which is pretty fun by exhausting as well. Lily on the other hand isn't that interested in soccer so far. She did pretty well the first practice but hasn't really participated in the other practice or the first game. I think she is just sort of overwhelmed. We are going to stick it out and finish the season to see how it goes. She just turned four and the team is ages four through six. So there are definitely some bigger kids. Hopefully she will come around and start loving soccer like I did! </div>

Lily has been super interested in taking pictures lately. It's kinda cute to see her lugging our big camera around the house. These are just a few of the pictures she captured. I love seeing her little mind work at figuring something out. It's amazing watching her grow. </div>

I am super sad that these pics turned out blurry. We were just trying to get the pictures taken and didn't realize that a focus setting was off. I'm posting them anyway though since it is all we took on her first day. </div>

This year has been completely different from last. She is so much more confident going to school. There have been no tears at drop off and she is like a seasoned pro. She basically kisses me and runs off to play. We are very proud of how much she has grown over the past year. </div>

These pictures of Lily are from my Mom's house. She had picked her up one day while Avery was napping and took her back to her house. This is what they did with their quality time. I sorta love it. Lily always wants to put my makeup on but I'm usually not up for the mess but Nana can spoil her. </div>

So I feel like a broken record every time I blog. I have been a total slacker this summer. But we have been having a good time and that's what counts right? Nathan randomly had a Monday off of school so we took advantage and took the girls to the WV State Fair. </div>

And we picked up one of these to go as well. The best cinnamon roll I have ever eaten, and it was huge! Lily and I shared this for two days. It was heavenly. I don't even care how much sugar and fat was in this thing. It was so delicious. I would eat another one right now. </div>

My in-laws bought a new to them boat recently so we have been enjoying some time on the lake nearby. The girls love it and Avery calls it her boat. I enjoy time on the lake too, but it is a lot of work with 2 little ones on a small speed boat. All the things you need to take on board and then corralling the girls so they don't take a plunge while we are riding. Avery really loved the tube and cried when we tried to make her get off. </div>

We have been having fun summer. Like most of the US we had a heat wave a couple weeks ago and now we are having fall like temps. So weird. I would like to have a little bit more of summer before we start doing the fall thing. Speaking of fall things, we signed Lily up for soccer. I'm not quite sure she grasps the idea yet, but I think she will like it. I played soccer forever growing up so I'm excited to see her play. </div>

Have you guys seen this <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098067/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2" target="_blank">movie</a>? You know Steve Martin's youngest son Justin, well Avery is totally that kid. He is just in his own world, and I think Avery resides their with him. She was doing this at like 6:30 in the morning. So funny and random. I love this girl. </div>

When I asked Lily what type of birthday party she wanted to have this year she was quick to respond with a "Rapunzel" party. I wasn't really surprised since she has loved this movie since the first time she watched it. Which was actually just a couple days after Avery was born. It was part of her big sister gift. </div>

I got most of my ideas off of Pinterest. You can check out my <a href="http://pinterest.com/jenny1382/lily-s-bday/" target="_blank">board</a> for ideas. I will also try to tag all the original sources I have too. This party was pretty easy to put together since there is a lot of Tangled/Rapunzel stuff in stores still. </div>

So Lily is four years old now. I feel like she turned four and turned into a new little girl. I don't want to jinx it or anything, but we have had a drastic change in behavior. Less whining, more being helpful and just generally sweet. I know that four will have it's own challenges and I'm not counting out the the old behavior yet, but three was hard. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
On her Thursday which was her actual birthday, we woke up early so Daddy could be here for breakfast and present opening. We had cinnamon rolls with candles and she opened her gifts from us which I think she enjoyed. </div>

Nathan did have class, but he skipped out early to spend the day with us. So when he got home we packed up and headed out for a picnic at the playground. It was super hot but we got a decent amount of play time in. </div>

When they got here the kids played a bit and then we headed to Lily's favorite <a href="http://www.piesandpints.net/" target="_blank">place</a> for dinner and after dinner had cake and cupcakes at my sister's house. </div>

July 18th, 2009. 7 days past my due date. I was so anxious and scared to meet my first born. She came easily after I was induced and it was love at first sight. I fell in love with her beautiful pouty lips and big blue eyes. She is the one that made me a Mommy and we will always have a special bond. </div>

She continues to amaze me everyday. I love seeing the world through her eyes. She is interested in so much and asks millions of questions. She recently started swimming in the shallow end of the pool without a swimmy when she realized she was tall enough to touch the bottom. </div>

I am so proud of the little girl she is becoming. She loves princesses, babies, painting her nails and "putting on my makeup". She is definitely a girly girl. But she has a rough and tumble side too. She loves to wrestle, get messy and play in the yard. Puddle stomping and art make her smile. </div>

I have no idea how much she weighs or how tall she is but it seems like she has shot up in both areas as of late. We will see at her 4 year old well check. Lily would pick a dress to wear over anything else everyday. You may see her rocking her fancy dresses to the playground. </div>

We had a very fun fourth of July. The weather was nice and we started off the day enjoying a patriotic parade! The girls got dressed up in their red, white and blue and I had to snap a few pictures before we left. </div>

The next town over has a big celebration every fourth of July, so that is where we headed. While we were waiting, the local news came up and asked if we wanted to be interviewed. Nathan was nice enough to be in the video with the girls. (we met up with another friend so that is her little girl) They ended up on the news that night! Luckily I remembered to set the DVR when we got home so we have it taped. </div>

After the parade we headed home for lunch and nap time. The very first time Lily tried Sprite, she said it was "spicy". I guess the carbonation tickles her tongue. Ha. It really cracks me up and it's one of those things I never want to forget. Thankfully I am writing it here. </div>

Entertaining kids when you are eating out is super hard. We try to stick to places that are kid friendly. Some places even have playgrounds for the kids. This place did not but Lily entertained herself with the toys we brought from home. I'm not sure if the little people were eating or if we were eating the little people. </div>

This girl is sorta into my shoes. She will randomly go in and put a pair on. This pic doesn't show it but she also is really only into wearing dresses. I think it is super cute, but she wants to pick the fanciest dress she owns just to hang out around the house. </div>

The things I do to entertain these girls. This was actually Daddy's game first. The plastic bin is sitting inside our wagon and they insisted to go for a ride. Then I looked down and saw the sticker on the lid. Oops. I think it's kinda crazy they have to have that warning anyway. </div>

So Avery has decided she wants to try to potty train. Truthfully I'm not really ready. Potty training is hard and I'm not mentally prepared. She has used the potty quite a few time and has had quite a few accidents. I guess we are just going to see how it goes. I would love to be done with diapers for a while. </div>

I'm not even sure where this rock came from. It just showed up in the house one day. Do your kids bring things in the house that don't belong? I feel like I'm always finding something. Anyway, we needed a nap time activity and painting the rock is what we did. Best thing about it, it was a gift for Nana!</div>

Nathan and his parents took the girls to see Despicable Me 2 a couple days ago. This was Ave's first movie in the theater! She just hasn't shown that she can sit through a full length movie ever so we haven't taken her. I had Mommy guilt that she was being left out so we decided to give it a try. I wasn't there, but Nathan said she didn't do that great. Just restless and up and down the whole time. We may wait a bit to try again with her. She did like the popcorn though! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A couple weeks ago, we took the girls on their first camping trip. It was my first trip in a while too. I have really only ever been on one camping trip and it was when I was a kid. This trip was just one night but we drove up early to swim and hang out at the lake.The girls are little fish and love to swim. </div>

Back at the campsite we enjoyed yummy dinner and s'mores. A corn hole tourney also happened and I so did not win. The girls had some issues falling asleep which was expected. But once they were out they stayed asleep the whole night. Our air mattress was missing a plug so it wasn't the most comfortable nights sleep I've ever had either. </div>

Camping was not a disaster, but it is a lot of work for just one night and I'm not so sure it is my kind of "vacation". </div>

In June, I headed down to Charlotte to visit my bff (literally she is the friend I have had the longest. Since Kindergarten!) The reason for this visit? The <a href="http://thepackage-tour.com/" target="_blank">Package Tour</a>. If you were a tween during the late 80's and early 90's, you will die if you see this show. It was amazing! Boyz II Men, 98 Degrees and New Kids on the Block. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now my very first concert was to see Boyz II Men when I was in the 8th grade, with my same bff. So this was even more special to see them again with her. One of my memories from the first concert was that they threw red roses into the audience, and they did it again at this concert. We so wanted to catch one but sadly did not. ha. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So it's been about a million years since I've blogged. Not for lack of stuff to blog about. I am sporting a yucky summer cold right now, but we have been keeping pretty busy around here and doing lots of fun stuff. We have been enjoying summer, although it has been raining at some point everyday for what seems like forever. Aside from that we have really been enjoying our summer. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Backing all the way up to June, we practiced tent camping in the front yard in preparation for a one night camping trip later in the month. The girls really like hanging out in the tent but they didn't make it past 9pm. They were back in the house and in their own beds. </div>

One rainy morning the girls dressed up in their swimming gear and "swam" in the living room. Then Lily decided that high heels were necessary too. </div>

Lily went with my Mom to vacation bible school and couple days this week. She picked out her outfit which she has been doing a lot lately. Tight and a fancy dress that used to belong to me when I was a kid. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have had a time with this lady lately. We put the girls in the same room recently. We set up Ave's bed in Lily's room and converted it to a toddler bed. (crib with bed rail) She really wasn't going for that though and it took forever to get her to fall asleep. So we pulled out the twin trundle bed from under Lily's and that is now her new bed. I think Nathan may build a bed frame and we will get a new mattress so we can still have the extra trundle bed when we need it. This picture is a day when she did just about everything but nap until she got tired enough to pass out. </div>

While sissy was at bible school, I got to spend some quality time with this little cheeser. We had a leisurely bath time then cuddled on the couch until bed time. I love this sweet girl. </div>

Even though we have been having quite a bit of rain, we have had a couple days that we were able to enjoy dinner outside. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then inside for a lunch picnic where they were so sweet with each other. Avery is totally Lily's little shadow and loves doing everything sis does. </div>

My Mom stops by occasionally on weekdays when she is out in the field for work. She usually can't stay very long but the girls really like it. This day Lily got her covers off her bed and made a place for her and Nana to nap. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And on Thursday I drove the girls down to Charleston to meet Nathan after class. We had a yummy lunch at Panera and a fun trip to Chuck E Cheese. The girls loved it. Avery ran around to every "ride" and asked for monies. But once they started going she wouldn't ride the whole time. I think she just liked the thrill of putting the money in the little slot. Oh no.........</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Luckily, I have never needed glasses or contacts. But so many people wear them including close family members. I went with my Mom a couple months ago to her eye doctor appointment. She had to order new frames and lenses and there just really wasn't much to choose from and they were so pricey! I'm talking like $300 pricey. I wish I would have known about <a href="http://www.glassesusa.com/" target="_blank">GlassesUSA.com</a> then. I would have totally sent her to this website to <a href="http://www.glassesusa.com/" target="_blank">buy glasses</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pair of <a href="http://www.glassesusa.com/" target="_blank">glasses</a> below were the first ones that caught my eye. I love the tortoise shell. I could totally see myself wearing these. They offer lots of designer glasses. So many cool brands. They even offer name brand prescription sunglasses like Ray Ban and Spy. </div>

Lily had her last day of Preschool last week. She will be going back to the same school next year so it's not technically her last day but it was still pretty emotional for me. She has grown so much over the past year. I mean look at the first day and last day pictures. She looks like such a baby in that first picture. Now she is a tall almost 4 year old. </div>

In the evening on Thursday, they had their end of the year program. Gosh, it was so adorable. I don't have a ton of pictures because I videoed the program. The kids were so very cute. But this is what Avery was doing for most of the show. </div>

Then she moved on to laying in the aisle of the sanctuary. She was being quiet and watching though so I let her be. Each child said a little nursery rhyme or sang a song. Lily needed a little help reciting Jack and Jill but she did it. After just about every kid, Avery yelled out "my turn". I don't think she will have an issue with shyness when it's her turn to preform. </div>

Things aren't always puppies and rainbows though. Every parent to small kids knows this. It's basically a crap shoot and you never know which toddler you are going to get. Are you going to get the sweet and loving little girl or the sassy and stubborn one? I can't blame her for either of those last two qualities, as I know exactly where they came from. (ahem, me) </div>

Bottom line is I have noticed this little one growing up. She is become more mellow and go with the flow. I am less on edge wondering if she will be happy or sad. Meltdowns are fewer and far between now. She is becoming more predictable. </div>

She had her end of the year preschool program last night and it was so good. This year at school has really helped with making her more social and comfortable around all types of people. She is definitely still shy around adults she doesn't know but I know this will just keep getting better. </div>
