Daddy took Lily to pick out her own balloon, which she would not let go of until she went down for her nap. The crown you see was decorated in stickers by Lily after receiving it in the mail from Grandma and Grandpa.
Greg and I went out for a sushi dinner and then listened to jazz downtown at Poor Richard's Bookstore while sharing a dessert and a glass of wine. So lovely!
JANUARY
Lily finished her Physical Therapy. Here are some pictures from her last session with Miss Hilary. We were all a bit sad to see this time end because it was so much fun!
January was a bit bittersweet this year. It was wonderful to find out that Greg and I were expecting Baby Bob (that's what we nicknamed him), but so hard when we miscarried. Greg and Lily and I are so grateful to our church community for providing meals, childcare and even helping with the laundry while Greg and I mourned the loss of our little one and tried to get my body to heal and rest.
DECEMBER 2008
A PARTY AND CHRISTMAS WITH MAMO AND POPPA!
An early Christmas with Aunt Kristy, Cousin Logan and Uncle Erik!
CHRISTMAS IN FRESNO, CALIFORNIA
While visiting we were also able to visit The Meux Home and take a holiday tour. I was also given the opportunity to play the song I had written for Lily's Dedication for services at my parent's church.
Visiting Greg's Aunt Marilyn, Uncle Time and Cousin Jodie in Simi Valley, CA. We had a great time catching up with family.
My Cousin Sara, Aunt Terry and Uncle Richard came down to visit. I had not seen them in more than ten years! It was a fun visit.
It was so much fun to catch up with old friends. Julie Calahan, which I have known since Elementary School, Noelle Cahill who I have known since Junior High and our good friend Carmen.
This morning Lily received a wonderful haircut by our friend Joan
ne Huddleson. She was so good with Lily that she made Cool Cuts seem like amateurs. We came to her house to be greeted by a warm smile, a big hug and lattes! Lily sat so well in Greg's lap while I took pictures. Afterwards, Joanne let Greg and Lily and I sit on her back porch swing and enjoy our lattes and the gorgeous view of Pikes Peak while she attended to another client. It was a wonderful way to start our day. 
Next was time to put up Christmas in the Heimbuck household. Oh I love this day so much th
at I have had it on the calendar for months! Lily was a wonderful helper, as was Bob. With Christmas music blaring, singing coming from our souls and rearranging the furniture (which I'm a big fan of, really) none of us could help but smile. Lily even brought on some of her dance 
moves, which right now looks a lot like she is saying "Ole!". A big thanks to my wonderful husband who took these pictures. Mom gets to be in some pictures, wow!
