And she only gets happiers

This was taken at 7am in the morning. Lily is happy all day long lately. Small upset times though when her teeth are bothering you. Speaking of which, she now has two top teeth (to add to her two bottom ones) that are poking through. One of the top ones is HUGE. Looks like an adult tooth. She is also learning to crawl (backwards so far only) and is pulling herself up to standing with the support of something. Before we know it she will be walking. Wow, how time flies.

The happiest baby ever

Our darling baby is developing more and more of a personality every day. As you can see below she is very happy and likes to smile a lot (from ear to ear). She is even starting to stand a little with the help of tables or her parents legs. We had a great time last weekend going to cousin Danielle's graduation party, seeing Uncle Bob & Aunt Nancy, and hanging out with Grandma Merry & Grandpa Ronnie. It was a wonderful weekend.

The end of our trip


More Prague





Prague Again





More Prague





Prague

Prague was definitely a beautiful city as well. Again, it didn't hurt that our already wonderful hotel gave us another free upgrade to a suite that overlooked the river and the castle. Wow, it was a million dollar view. Plus the two rooms & two bathrooms were nothing to complain about.

The Wachau Valley

On the drive from Vienna to Prague we took a detour and toured the Wachau Valley & town of Melk.

Budapest to Vienna

After spending two nights in Budapest we moved on to Vienna. Got a little lost in Vienna coming in and even went to the wrong Hilton hotel, but ultimately we made it ok.

In Budapest, view of Parliament from Castle Hill
