Rolling Rolling Rolling

Lily has always hated tummy time - screams her head off for the duration. Today Mike put her down on her tummy and we sat down to devour some nachos and the next thing we know she's laying on her back kicking her feet all over the place. Mike put her back on her tummy and what do you know - she screamed until she rolled herself right back over and then was happy as can be.

In other exciting news - our beautiful niece made her way into this world - four weeks early. Brett and Hollie welcomed Anna Elizabeth last night at 10:05pm at 6lbs 9oz and 20.5 inches long. These two Hoy girls were surely more ready for the world than any of us! Lily and Anna should have been three weeks apart had they both been born close to their due dates but instead will be five weeks since they were so stubborn!

Sweet Annie - looks just like her daddy of course

Tomorrow we have Lily's "newborn" photo session with Erin Alies Photography. I am so excited for Erin to work her magic and to see the fabulous photos she takes. In preparation for her shoot, I perused Etsy and Pinterest to find a cute outfit. I really wanted a tutu but had a bit of sticker shock over the prices. I googled instead and found a DIY tutu how-to and created my own masterpiece for under $10. I can't wait to put it on her!
