Lila has a NAME!

We finally gave Lila Reese her hebrew name, Shira Joanna. Shira is for Mommy's aunt Sandra, and Joanna is for Daddy's Great Uncle Johnny. It was a beautiful, small ceremony with our close family and Lila did great as did her sisters...

This might be the first Shulman family photo since Lila has been born...

Eggs, Eggs Everywhere

The girls had an egg hunt at Mimi and Poppy's house...actually several egg hunts, they loved having them scattered throughout the yard and then collecting them.

We also dyed eggs! It was so fun! For 2 little Jewish girls we really enjoyed Easter Festivities!!

Lila's 8 Month Old

Lila is 8 months old! She is crawling all over the place and getting into everything. She has become quite the eater and loves most fruits and veggies that she has tried - corn, squash, bananas, raspberries and carrots top her list.

She sits in a high chair...

She tries to drink from a cup...

...and above all, she LOVES hanging out with her sisters!!

Lila 7 Months

Lila is 7 months and had a big month. About 2 weeks ago, she got tubes in her ears and seems to be feeling much better. She is starting to get the hang of sitting up should be sitting up pretty well in the next week. She started music class today (pictures will be included in next month's post, mommy forgot her camera today) and LOVED it! She was actually the oldest baby in the class and was showing off my rolling all over the place, giggling on command and shaking instruments (sort of)...

She loves all of her toys but the jumper seems to be her favorite these days. Look for video of her jumping next month!

Swinging Sisters

To say we enjoy our swingset is an understatement - we just love having a "park" in our backyard!! Even Lila is getting in on the action these day!

Marching in the Snow

We couldn't believe it, but it snowed the first day of March! It was a strange day, we woke up and there was no snow on the ground, around noon it started coming down pretty hard...









....when we woke up from our nap it covered our yard and street and was really fun!









...we got some new rainboots that day also - playing in the puddles was just as much fun as the throwing snowballs!
