It's getting warmer outside...........

And you are getting closer and closer to walking. It is the cutest thing in the whole wide world. You can pick yourself up on something and stand, but walking is still a bit away. Besides, you don't really know how to fall down to your tooshie once you are standing on something. We got new gates installed for you because you are moving all over the place. We put a gate just to the right of our front door and one at the top of the stairs.

Other big news right now is that YOU ARE GOING TO BE A BIG SISTER!!!! Mommy is about 6 weeks pregnant as I write this. The projected date of arrival for your first brother or sister is around 11/10/11 (wouldn't that be funny if the birthdate was 11/11/11). It could be. We haven't told any of the family yet, but we are going to be telling all of them over the next week or so. We got a really cute shirt for you to wear that says "Lydia's going to be a big sister" and this is how we are going to announce it to everyone. They will see you wearing the shirt and get really excited. It's going to be absolutely adorable.

Other than that, you are daddy's total sweetheart. I love you so much that I just can't stand it sometimes. I often wonder how I will ever be able to discipline you in the future when your behavior warrants it, because I melt when I'm around you. You are such a perfect little baby girl and I couldn't imagine my life without you in it. I know that you will be such a wonderful big sister to however many children that God blesses us with (hopefully a bunch!).

I love you always and forever,
Your daddy!
