Ok! I am finally caught up!!
I was not feeling up to blogging or taking a ton of pictures like I usually do since I was sick and we had a lot going on!
Lily had her first thanksgiving:) We spent the day between Thomas and my parent's houses!
We started off at a lunch with Thomas' family! There are well over 20 people on that side with all of their children and grandchildren plus friends! It's always a good time when we get together! We had a ton of food and played board games! Almost everyone took a turn holding Lily... it was the first time they had really had the chance to spend time with her! ofcourse, I don't have ANY pictures:(
Then we went over to my parent's house (where we were staying) and finished helping my mom cook and ate again! My sister, Haley was home from college so it was really nice to get to spend time with her! We also celebrated her 21st birthday! I can't believe that she is that old! Time is flying!
I don't have any pictures from there either! Just too much going on I guess!! I'm kicking myself for it now though!
All in all, this week has been better than last week! Lily is over her cold and eye infection completely! Thomas left Monday morning for a 2 week training trip to Navada! So this is the first time I have ever been taking care of Lily completely on my own! I wasn't too worried about it! I basically do that when he is home since he is so busy with work and school! But I am missing having a little break every now and then! Especially since Lily got a little spoiled after 4 days of grandparents and aunts and uncles holding her all the time! She only wanted to sleep on my lap monday and tuesday! Today she seems to be getting back in the hang of thigs! She put herself to sleep for her morning nap and fell asleep again in her swing after eating! So I am feeling a little better! I don't know how much longer I would have lasted with her being so clingy!!
Developmentally, she is growing so fast! I'm not too keen on reading up on and stressing over baby mile stones, so I have no idea how "on track" she is! But I think she is doing great! She is holding her head up with very little to no bobbing at all now! And she can turn her head to look at what ever she wants! Tummy time is getting better! When she wakes up from a nap she will look around and smile at me! She was laughing at her blanket the other day!
She found her feet this weekend too! So those are one of her new favorite toys!! Everytime she is on her back she folds them up and grabs onto her socks! They are sooo stretched out now lol! She's got a little too much thigh and tummy in the way, so she isn't chewing on her toes... yet!
She loves her little froggie toy that I forced Thomas to buy for her a few weeks ago! It was only a dollar at old navy and I just had to have it!! I am so glad I did! The legs are long and skinny and she loves holding on to them like she holds on to my fingers! And she likes to chew on his eyes!!
It's really great watching her!! It's like she is this little person now! I can see more and more of her personality every day!
