Another fun month with one busy baby! Lilly Rose you are on the move and keeping things fun around here. This past month has been a pretty big one. You learned to crawl, stand up in the crib and we've found that you have one strong arm. You are such a joy and lately I find myself smiling at the thought of how fun life is with you, how blessed and thankful we are to have you in our lives. Here's a little of what you were up to this past month:
-- Your strong arm: I found this out one day while sitting on the floor playing with you. You took a toy and basically pitched it across the room. I wasn't sure what just happened and was quite shocked the power behind your little arms already. I'm afraid I'm going to have to keep an eye on this as I'm not sure if it was a discovery of yours or temper. Either way, I've got my eye on you baby girl.
-- Shopping: You are such a great shopper! We go out a couple times a week and you are 95% of the time so pleasant and love to be out and about. You started sitting in the cart this past month just like a big girl. Sometimes you even get comfortable, lay back and snack. Cracks me up!
-- Vocabulary: We've added a few words besides "dada" as you are now saying, "doo dooo dooooo" (with your guitar positioned arms as you bounce up and down) "Oliver - ahh-vur" "Papa" "no"... You're still holding out on "mama" but when you cry you seem to know how to say my name, your cry sounds like "MmaaaaaaaaaaaaaMmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh"
-- Crawling: you are all over the place and it's keeping me on my toes. You've been wanting to move for months so you are definitely making up for lost time getting into anything and everything.
-- Love: to brush your teeth - you smile so big and get excited when I tell you it's time to brush teeth. This makes me proud because I know it's one less struggle I'll have in trying to keep those teeth cavity free.
-- New to you: yogurt, cheese and trying new foods. You are not too fond of anything I give you outside of the Gerber brand with the exception of cheerios and banana's. We are working on it.
-- Play: you love to swing, crawl all over the house and sit with your toys and play while watching Seasme Street.
-- Hair: I have to comment on your hair Lilly because so many people question me about it. Strangers have said: "rock on baby, baby rocker" because of its height, "do you style her hair" um, no!, "wow, look at that hair" yep it's a conversation piece wherever we go. Some in the family call it "Ava hair" because your cousin Ava had hair like this too as a baby. I think it's definitely soo you and you wear it well. :) I've become so fond of your doo that I may just tear up a little once it decides to lay down.
Stats:
About 18lbs, 6mo, 6/9mo and some 12mo clothes
Eyes are hazel - a blue/grey color.
Sz 3 diapers - you are a pretty long baby so we had to move up for your length.
Shoes: 3 and you have lots of them, you love shoes!
It's been such a fun month. I'm enjoying this stage so much. Lilly Rose, we love you to the moon and back!
