Thank You Jessi!
Thanks to Jessi at the Aveda Hair School in Denver (on the 16th Street Mall) for one of my best recent haircuts! For $12 and expert precision, the joy from this little pick-me-up should last me for weeks!
And thanks to my awesome husband for sparing the green for the cut and to mike and kristin for watching liliana while I got it done...well, all my thanks are over, just in time for the awards ceremony you're-talking-too-long music to play.

What's Up Blog World?! She's Baaaa-aaack
It's summer time finally, and in celebration, a blog post! (thanks to Clifton for the gentle suggestion, by the way.)

Liliana and I are totally loving the warm weather. It means we play outside and don't get so stir-crazy during the day. We also get to convince Tommie to join us outside almost every day for about 30min. after we have lunch together. It rocks...you may notice though, judging by the gash on Lili's forehead, that playing outside does come with its fair share of risks...
Our little boy, growing inside of me currently, is growing fine and continues to make finding an outfit in the morning an ever-growing challenge. (ha, pun intended.) Truett's his name, and he's a very, very, very active little guy.

In more mundane news, I made chicken salad today from a fresh chicken that I boiled and shredded myself. I'm excited to see how it tastes for dinner! I'm also going shopping tonight to supplement Cici's for our church's outreach tomorrow. Called "GLOCAL IMPACT" (Global/Local), the event is a chance for us to get out in the neighborhood around our church and help our neighbors with yard and housework that they wouldn't be able to handle otherwise. Our LifeGroup is hosting the event this year and I'm pretty excited to see how it goes. I know Tommie will be sore from all of the mowing, painting, weeding and whatnot he'll be a party to tomorrow...I, being pregnant of course and exempt from much of the hard labor(at least for tomorrow, ha), will likely NOT end up sore from setting out pizzas, sodas, salads and cookies. I do know that I will be appreciated by our hungry laborers though.
We're making plans to head to Florida in just a few short weeks(over my 24th birthday, no less), and we're psyched to see some of you there. Just so you know, if you're in the Clearwater area on June 5, Tommie will be playing a show at Smiley's that starts at 9p.m. It should be a good time.
July 4 is also coming sooner than I could even think, and we're hoping to make our way up to Copper Mountain with my extended family for the festivities....we shall see how the budget sways...But more on that as time rolls on.
In the meantime, thank God for summer, sunshine and cute little girls in sunglasses!
And this shot is just for fun...cause I thought Lili looked just so darn cute.

More Recently....
:: I got seriously ill. Something that went around church, including all of the babies. I gave it to my mom while she was here. She took it home to my dad in Indiana. OOPS!
:: I'm pregnant again! I think I forgot to mention that...ha. So the ill thing at first was confused with having an angry baby until I found out so many other people had gotten sick, including Lili. I'm due September 5.
:: Kristin is in countdown mode for Aspen to arrive! I can't wait to be an aunt.
:: We're going to Alabama for vacation tomorrow until Monday! I'm so excited. We'll get to see friends and ignore work together in a state we surprisingly found we love.

Pictures Are Worth 1,000 Words.
So in the spirit of that blog title...I present to you a picture dump! That way I don't have to write so much to catch you up on what's been going on. So, in late news, you receive this picture post. The next post will be a more recent news post that will have you up to speed!
Christmas came and went. Lili saw Santa and didn't much care for him, though he did come through with some awesome gifts for her, including an Elmo Live. (batteries are already dead!)
Tommie and I went on a really fun date to Qdoba-sans Lili-and then proceeded to go home, where we watched Heroes on DVD from season 1. We finished the season that night!
Lili went sledding with Tommie. I think she had fun until the snow kind of covered her face. Yes, we felt like bad parents. But yes, we still thought it was great.
Kristin had a baby shower! Brittany(sister-in-law) made the awesome tissue flowers hanging from my ceiling. A ton of girls came and we're ready for Aspen anytime!
Grandmommy came to visit for the baby shower and Lili got some extra love...she even got her hair curled:
And yes, that's a grin, complete with the glamorous necklace Grandmommy gave Lili. I think she likes looking so "pretty."
That's all for the photo dump!
