Just turned 6 months!!

We bought Lilly a bumbo seat. At first, she really liked it until she dropped her toy and went to reach for it. Then, she realized that she is trapped. Anyhow, it comes in handy for feedings and watching Elmo's World.

Life with Lilly continues to be delightful. She is almost six months and has recently mastered feeding herself the bottle while being supervised by me. Note how Lilly stares me down just to make sure I am still close by. Anyhow, this new development is a dream come true for moms. She is entertained by her gourmet bottle for 30 minutes. I can read or eat my own breakfast and enjoy a little freedom.  

We also really love to see her grab her toes and try to eat them. This keeps her and us entertained. These pictures were taken on a lazy Sunday afternoon with Daddy lounging by her side.

At the Babysitter's

Look how cute these two are! Lilly couldn't resist holding Emily's hand while at her house (her mom, Janica, was babysitting for me).  This totally reminds us of the movie WallE.

Lilly just turned 5 months old last week. Her biggest accom-

plishment happened last Tuesday when she rolled from her back to her tummy!! This photo was taken just moments afterwards. My brother Paul was visiting from his upstairs apartment and he was the first to witness it. It seems that she does not have complete control yet. I found her crying in her crib yesterday because she rolled over and was laying on her face.

The rest of her time is spent busily studying her environment and toys. She is pulling things and putting everything in her mouth. It has been stunning watching as she discovers her surroundings and interacts.
