We've been trying very hard to capture Lilli's smiles on film, but she seems to put them away whenever the camera comes out. It has made for some other funny videos, however. She makes some pretty cute faces and has started "talking" back to us, which is so much fun (ask me if I think that when she's 16 and talking back!). Hopefully soon we'll have some smiles to share!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We hope everyone had a wonderful day celebrating Jesus' birthday!

Two Months!

Lilli celebrated her two month "birthday" yesterday! How exciting! Time is going so quickly (I'm sure I'll say that every time she is another month older)! She's still working hard on her neck control and recently has started rolling onto her side from her belly. We're hoping for a full tummy-to-back roll any day now! She's also been really good about staying awake during the day and sleeping a full 8 hours at night. Ryan and I are very thankful for this change, although she's admittedly never been a terrible sleeper. We're looking forward to month three and can't wait to see what new things she learns!

Playtime!

We have so much fun with this stacker that I just had to take video. Today she was "dancing" and giving us lots of smiles while playing with her toy! We're very thankful to Emma and Tyler for passing this toy down to their baby cousin!

Tummy Time

Lillian has been spending a lot of time working on her neck strength lately, and I've been able to capture some video. This isn't the best one, but all of the great video I captured is too lengthy to post on Blogger and Facebook. Nonetheless, we hope you enjoy this one!

Lilli's First Thanksgiving

This week we got to celebrate our first big holiday with Lillian...Thanksgiving! We enjoyed a delicious prime rib dinner Thanksgiving Eve with Ryan's dad before sending him off to Florida to be with the rest of the family, and then spent Thanksgiving day with my family. We had a great time with everyone! We hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving and have many things to be thankful for this year! We certainly know that we have been blessed!

One Month!!

Today Lilli is celebrating her one month birthday! This time as flown by so quickly! We're enjoying every inch of our beautiful little girl and are loving parenthood. It is somewhat bittersweet that's she's already outgrown most of her newborn clothes and has moved up to size 1 diapers, but at the same time we knew it wouldn't last long when she started out at nearly 9 pounds! We didn't have too many milestones this month other than growing from sponge baths to an infant tub...and she absolutely loves bath time! She's sleeping very well (about a 4 to 5 hour stretch every night now) which Ryan and I are grateful for. We can't wait to see what new things month 2 brings!
