Today

*Had a Yummy breakfast..and Lilly ate every last bite! Big Win! Guess she likes fruit salad.
*Took stink bug to her Gymboree class.
*Stopped by Nana's house on the way home for a quick visit.
*Came home and had lunch.
*Played with blocks and every other random toy in the toy bin.
*Took naps.
*Went for a quick walk.
*Watched Dora.
*Had some snacks.
*Snuggled on the couch to look at books and Mama's catalogs (even though mama was trying to take a little break - Lilly wanted to gaze at all the stuff in the catalogs too!)
*Made & ate dinner.
*Watched Lilly delicately dance to the tune played on the baby's swing.
*Lilly wrestled with her Daddy. She LOVES to do that.
*Bath time for buggy!
*Watched Survivor with Anton, and Lilly watched Tigger & Pooh on Mommy & Daddy's bed.
*Lilly went 'night night'.
*Anton went to play basketball.
*I took a nice hot shower, and plan to go crawl in bed to read my books.

What a day. Something about today was perfect. Maybe it was the simple one on one time spent with Lilly, or maybe it was I didn't feel the need to get one thing done, it could have been the silly "conversations" I had with Lilly, or the fact that I feel so at peace with my life. I love Anton so deeply, I never knew I could love Lilly the way I do, and I am so excited to meet this new little addition to our family. My love grows for these three every day. Who knew that was possible!

you are a blessed woman. Good thing all of these simple pleasures in life are written down. it's nice to reflect on them on the "crazy" days that aren't as peaceful. I can't wait to hear about the new boo-boo-bug! :o) Memorize Lilly. once the baby is here she will immediately seem SO BIG!

I really love this post. Very well written. I wish somewhere in there it would have said, "Met up with Julie to make her dinner while she sat on the couch."

But it still seemed like a perfect day regardless.
