We started off May with a sleepover at the Revels'. They live about 45 minutes away, so when we get together with them, we usually end up staying over because it's easier than waking Lily up to drive back home!
Mother's Day was in May, which was my 2nd :). Lily got me Oriental lilies and Jeff got me roses. Then we had a visit from Uncle Jo Jo, and then Grandpa and Meme. We went to the Marbles Kids Museum, and I swear Jeff and Jordan had a better time than Lily! Then when Grandpa and Meme were here, we went to the Asheboro Zoo. We took a lot of pictures of the animals, but I left them out because I had so many other pictures!
Lily and I went to the "Got to be NC" festival with Lily's cousin Marley, and some of our neighbors, Kelli & Molli and Jes & Tia. It was a really great festival for all of the girls - they had rides, tons of carnival food, and a petting zoo!
We wrap up May with a few pictures of Lily taking down a McDonald's cheeseburger, and a few shots of fun in the pool.
There are a lot of pictures for May, but don't feel pressured to look at them all!

It's much more fun to look under the rug instead of playing with toys! |

Is he laughing hysterically, or did Lily take him down??? |

At the zoo - Lily's not too sure about those giraffe, even though they didn't get close enough for us to feed them. |
|
She did, however, LOVE the carousel! Each person took a turn riding with her. |

Just a little picture of how well she's using her fork ;) |
