Well, this week has been a mess! I've already posted about the three big things that happened... Family pictures, Easter Sunday and Thomas deploying... so this might be a little boring!
Thomas and his men were laid over in New Jersey for 24 hours. I guess their plane had some trouble and they had to rework arrival times in Germany before they could leave. I talked to him twice while he was there but missed his call tonight because I was giving Lily a bath and left my cell in the diaper bag! I guess I haven't gotten in the habit of clutching the phone in my hands where ever I go yet! [soon though!] I assume he's fine since I haven't heard other wise! Hopefully I'll get a call or an email in the next few days! I'll update when there's some news of him!
Lily has been a monster for the last few days! Nichole seems to think that it's because she can sense that her Daddy's gone and she misses him! I would hope she couldn't "miss" him because that would break my heart:( But she's also trying to cut that second tooth... so I'm thinking that's the majority of the issue! Tuesday she wouldn't let me out of her sight without screaming and most of the time I had to be holding her as well! It was a tough day for me! I had made a list of things to accomplish this week so that I could stay busy and get everything ready for my trip to Jacksonville next week... but she wasn't letting me get anything done! It's not as easy as "throw her in the moby wrap and do your thing" when she almost weighs 20 pounds and can push and kick and scream now lol!!
Today she was a little better! She would let me walk out of the room for a few minutes before she started screaming at least! We went to Nichole's so she could have some change of scenery and I could have some company! Then we went grocery shopping and she actually didn't fight the wrap and took a nap for most of the time! She loves Wal-mart though... every time we are there she is sooo intrigued! Then we came home and played and danced a little and she even let me have some Internet time while she played with herself before her bath! She crashed around 7:30:)
She is still toting her spoon around! She really loves that thing! She completely ignores all of her "baby" toys and plays with a bunch of random things now! Like a Mrs. Dash seasoning bottle, her spoon, the Tylenol bottle [supervised!], a calculator and an empty ribbon spool! And remotes pretty much rock her world! But she doesn't get to play with those very often because she messes the tv up pretty bad!
She is soooooooooo close to crawling! It's so scary watching her because I just know she could take off at any second! I sit there trying to prepare myself in my head! And I fight the urge to just have a camera pointed at her every second of the day! I want to see it with my own eyes... I don't want a lens in my way!
She moved her knee again today while we were at Nichole's! We both almost cried!! And tonight in the tub I let her get on her knees in the water. She seemed to have an easier time since she was more buoyant and trusted my arm under her! She was all over the place! I can't wait to get her in a pool! I think she's going to be a really good swimmer!!
Oh yea... and she got her first little head bump today! She was playing and face planted into a toy and got a little red bump on her forehead! It didn't even seem hard enough to leave a mark and she didn't really freak out that bad. But since all three of my memory cards were full I didn't get a picture of it tonight! I'll get one in the morning if it's still there!
