Growing Up!

Look how big Lilya is getting. She is starting to try to sit up on her own. It is so amazing to watch her become more and more independent each day.
LuLu loves the baby...especially this slobbery stage that she's going through. She nabs every chcance she gets to give her a kiss.

I knew that I got into Discovery Toys for a reason. I had so much inventory, and now I am putting it to good use. Our motto is "Play with your children, it's the best investment you'll ever make." I honestly believe this. I am so excited that we are entering the play stages.

I love how blue her eyes look in this picture. She still doesn't have much hair, but what is coming in looks pretty blonde. I think she is going to look quite a bit like Tony.

This is one of the pictures I took the day after she turned 5 months. I can't believe how fast the time goes by. If you look close, you can see the big scratch down her nose. It doesn't matter how often I cut her nails, she manages to scratch herself good at least once a week.

Snow Day!


With all of the snow, school was cancelled today, so I got to stay home and take pictures all day long. The first picture is actually one of the last ones I took. She always smiles when Tony comes home from work. The others are of her on the floor. She rolls over right away now if I put her down on her stomach. The dog always thinks I am talking to her when I'm talking about rolling over...she has to be right there with the baby all of the time. She is really good with her though!

Rolling Over!

Well, Tony claims that she rolled over from her stomach to her back today. I was doing laundry and cleaning around the house, and he was playing on the living room floor with her. He called to me, "She did it, she rolled over." Of course, I was disappointed because I missed it, but I came in to watch her do it again. While I was in the room, all she would do was fuss because she was on her belly. As soon as I went back to the laundry, Tony yelled, "She did it again." I guess she did it about 4 times for him, but she would never do it while I was in the room. I guess it is time to start making her spend a little more time on her tummy (even though she doesn't like it), so that she can reach these milestones. I am going to have to start practicing with her while Tony isn't home, so I can be the first to see her crawl!

Found her feet!


Although she doesn't enjoy tummy time so much, she loves to lay on her back and play with her feet. I'm not sure that she is ever going to roll over. She just doesn't care to be on her belly at all.

Playing Dress Up



Here are just a few fun pictures I took with her in the halos that my mom got her. She is such a good sport when I dress her up.












Everybody loves to hold the baby


I love how she is looking at Kaleb. The others are Uncle Matt, Aunt Amy, Mammaw Kelsey and Mammaw Alma.


















Snow Day!

It is cold, so we're just staying inside and taking lots of new pictures. It is hard to keep up now that I am back to work.
