Lilly turns 11

I started this blog for Lilly when she turned 2. Now she is 11 and it's hard to believe.  She is bursting with personality, opinions, and artistic flair. She loves all things creative. She made her own cupcakes to take to school while I napped, because she loves to bake. For her birthday, in lieu of a party, we made a trip to the King of Prussia mall outside Philadelphia.  She shopped for a solid 8 hours with her bestie, Emma, until I declared the day over.

She bought herself fake glasses, a beret, an Eiffle tower necklace, and other accessories for herself. It was fun to watch her shop and enter that tricky age or tweens. She still wants to play with dolls and she wants to have an iphone with the latest apps.

(Jack joined another family and they invited him to stay for lunch, eye roll. He took their pizza before we could stop him. Ha!)

On Lilly's birthday we surprised her with a cake made by our friend Molly and met up with some friends for dinner. Not bad for a Monday birthday! Lilly's favorite animal is the panda and her favorite colors are purple and green,
