The forgotten child . . .

Until this week, Lily had never spent a night away from us. She pretty much had our undivided attention. So, you can imagine that this week has turned her little world upside down. I thought she needed some special attention, so I convinced Brock to take her to Disney on Ice. It turned into a full-fleged daddy-daughter date. Like every good date, it began at McDonald's. Then a ride on the train (which Lily loved).





After the train came the show (which she loved - and sat through the entire thing).

They were able to get great seats at the last minute (thank you recession?), but Lily enjoyed the view from the stairs more.





She was a big Mickey Mouse fan, but Mermaid won her over. She cheered for the Mermaid and yelled "NO NO" at the giant Ursela.




Lily had a great time (and Brock only fell asleep once during the show). Hopefully this is the first of many daddy-daughter dates.

Okay, that's the cutest thing I've ever seen. I love her little backpack and the picture of her on the train drinking from her sippy is priceless. I love her little jacket. Gosh, it's all so cute. Way to go, Brock. You're always raising the bar, and even taking pictures while you do it! I can't wait till Greg and Kate get to go on daddy-daughter dates.

Thats cool she enjoyed it so much I was afraid Rylee couldn't hold still that long. I will have to find something for Jake and Rylee in a few months.

That is so sweet! I love the title of that post too. Ava has been the same way. She pretty much only likes Eric now from all the time they spend together. Lily looks so cute by the way!
