Yummy, Yummy Feet!!!

Well it finally happened! I've been waiting for the day that Lily discovered that she can gnaw on her feet! She's came close a couple of times before, but tonight was the first time she's been successful! She was soooooo cute! I LOVE IT!!!!!

Lily was on the move again tonight. She started out in the middle of the playmat and while I was cleaning up the kitchen she made her way over by the chair....she is so quiet about it and very quick. I heard her laughing so I went to check on her and there she was across the room. If I would have given her a few more minutes she probably would have been pulling up on the ottoman there! :-)

I see you Mommy!

Such a sweetheart!

5 Months Old & First Cereal!!!

Let me help you Mommy!!!


What's everyone staring at!

Yesterday Lily was 5 months old. She is growing up so fast already! Most of the time Lily is very good about entertaining herself...whether it is in her bouncy seat, playing on the floor or in her exersaucer or jumperoo (which she is really getting the hang of now)! At nap time she has a favorite blanket that she likes to curl up with on her side and snuggle with while she sleeps. It is so precious watching her. Now we have to really watch how close we get her to things, because before we know it her little hands reach out to grab whatever is within reach. She espeically likes our drinking glasses and the remote to the tv! This weekend Granny Faye and Papa Greg were visiting and we all had a fun time! Yesterday was a big day for Lily, she got to eat cereal for the first time. She did so good. At first she was trying to figure out what was going on, but within a few minutes I couldn't feed her fast enough! She loved it! We had so much fun watching her and of course we took tons of photos and videotaped it all!

Lily Laughing!!!

Below is a short clip of Lily laughing today. I was throwing her ball up in the air and I accidentally dropped it, well Lily thought this was funny. So, then I started bouncing it and making funny sounds and she would laugh every time. We were doing that awhile when Jim decided to get the video camera out and start filming. Earlier today I was folding some laundry and making it dance in front of her....she was full of laughs then too. That was the first time Jim heard her laugh. She was a giggly little girl today and such a sweetie!!!

Visit With Grammy and Grandad!!!

Grammy and Grandad were here visiting us this past weekend and we had such a good time. Lily enjoyed the extra attention and had a fun time playing with both of them! Jim and I enjoyed a date night Saturday while Grammy and Grandad babysat Miss Lily! We hated to see them leave today, and are already looking forward to their next visit!

Mommy, Daddy and Lily!

We do not have many pics with all 3 of us! Thanks for taking the pic Dad!

The Sweetest Pickle!

Lately Lily has been finding herself in some situations that she's not quite sure how to get out of. :-) This is how we found her after her nap this morning. She's done this quite a few times lately. She was so sweet and happy just looking around waiting on someone to come help her out!


This evening we put her in the middle of her playmat while we were preparing dinner, and we could hear her from the kitchen having the best time...squealing, laughing making all kinds of fun sounds. When I went to check on her to see what was so much fun....this is where I found her. She had squirmed off her playmat and was having fun on the hardwoods. She thought that was neat...she knew she had done something different.

Such a Sweetie!

Ready for Church!

Lily's 4 Month Dr.'s Appointment

Yesterday Lily had her 4 month checkup. She always has a fun time at the Dr.'s office, but yesterday she had such a good time. Now that she is a little more mobile she had a great time on the exam table looking at herself and playing w/ the mirror. She likes the crinkle sound that the paper makes underneath her too! She figured out that she could turn herself on the table and prop her feet up on the mirror and then push off from there! She did that over and over again until the Dr. came to see her.

She now weighs 12lbs 10oz and is 24.5 inches long! She also had to get a couple of shots, she did so good...she didn't cry as much from the shots as she did w/ her last visit 2 months ago.

Lily hanging out!

Lily likes her Baby Carrier now that she is a little bigger!


She has so much fun playing on her play mat!

Lily's Exersaucer and Jumperoo

Lily got to try out her Exersaucer and Jumperoo over the last couple of days. I think she is going to like them once she gets just a little taller. Right now her feet barely touch the bottom.

Lily's New Boots

Lily got some new boots yesterday to keep her little footsies nice and toasty! I think they are so cute!
