Eagles in Quarter Finals

Finally

I haven't put anything on this blog in four months! What has happened???? Hhhhmmmm, I guess I got really busy. I went back to work with a totally different schedule. I now teach Veterinary Technology, Animal Science, Horticulture and Floral Design, and I am the FFA advisor. I've been on four field trips, one of them an overnighter:)!

Lila is growing so much and changing all the time. She loves her family and is so sweet! She has eight teeth and crawls super fast. She walks with walking toys but just isn't interested. She enjoys other kids and loves her soft cougar blanket. She claps loves when people sing her silly songs. She is a petite 18 pounds and 28 inches long. And holy moly, she is BUSY! The only time she sits still is in the stroller on our daily jog. She looks calm but you can see her eyes taking in the new scenery. Anyway... doing well! Have a nice day!

7 Months

I wish everyone could see this baby when she wakes up in the morning. Laying on her belly, she holds up her head while pushing up on her elbows and hands, and peeks over the crib with big smiles and sleepy eyes. Oh wait, you can see her...

She has more personality everyday and for the most part, it is a sunny one! She is starting to get into the crawling position and is SO ready to move... she wants to go places.

...and we do go places. We went to the tri-cities where she got to see family and play with her cousins.

She runs errands with me everyday, riding in the stroller as Daisy and I slog to the grocery store, the movie rental place, the post office and Goin' Postal of course, to see grandma and grandpa, the park, the library, and pretty much all over town. We went to the city pool for the first time today... I am so glad to have an excuse to play like a kid:)

We are going to hang out with Auntie Raven, and cousins Gunner and Colt for swim lessons this week!

Food

Lila loves food!

Lila Sits Up...

at least for a while. She is getting stronger and it is so fun to watch her experiment and learn through trial and error!

She loves cups! Actually, if Mommy has it, Lila wants it.

She is doing pretty good. I do put a little water in it.

Sometimes she actually swallows some... then she throws the cup on the floor and mommy pics it up.

Can you see her hair sticking up? It is the sunblock we need so we can enjoy the beautiful weather.

Just thinking about how fortunate and blessed I am to have a loving husband and beautiful baby. I had the best Mother's Day I've ever had... okay so it was my first. I woke up and Lila and Scott had brought me a beautiful Orchid, a card, and MY coffee. The coffee was a feet in itself. Scott had to remember that I like Lucky Charms, sugar free, fat free, and with white coffee. If you have ever been to a coffee stand with Scott, you know it is very noble of him to do this.

We had a great day, Scott and I tag teamed Chicken Cordon bleu, horseradish mashed potatoes, and napa cabbage salad with gruyere cheese and took it to his parents! It was a fun process and tasted even better. Hope all is well, here is more Lila!
