Week 21


So much happened this week:
  1. Lily is now grabbing her feet and toes when she lays on her back!
  2. On Saturday, we welcomed Lily to the world by throwing her a party. This was in leu of a christening. Dan and I are not religious but still wanted to celebrate Lily's arrival. She wore a beautiful dress that Grams (my Mom) bought her. She looked so pretty. Grams made mostly all of the food and desserts which everyone loved. Lily's Grandma (Dan's Mom) made a great layered dip, a garden salad, and fruit salad. She also bought an awesome Baskin Robins ice cream cake that everyone said was so yummy. I didn't get to have a piece :( . Lily's Great Aunt SuSu made eggplant parmesan. I made chocolate chip cookies and caramel apple pie. It was a great day and Lily was such a good baby girl. ***Greatest line from the party goes to Kaylee (Dan's friend Matt's daughter): while I was holding Lily up to make her stand on the floor - my hands under her arms, Kaylee asked in a surprising tone, "Are those her real arms?" So cute!
  3. Sunday we went over my parent's house to get some left overs from the party to bring home. Lily had so much fun laughing at a water bottle Grams was shaking (watch the video below).
  4. Lily rolled over from her back to her front for the first time on Wednesday! (watch the video below)
  5. Thursday Lily turned 5 months old. Our little girl is growing so fast.
