Our Big Adventure

Wow so much has happened in 2 weeks.


First Gigi went home after 4 months of living next door to us. We were invited out Thursday for Happy Hour. Mike response was "Um, no we have to deal with reality now..I am a parent. " No more Glorified babysitter. She was absolutely great. Let's see how long she lasts. :)

Lilly's first day at school started Wednesday. She pretty much looks at me and if she could talk she would say:" Mommy get out of here. I got things to do like ride on my train and swing and take Max's toys away. Beat it already." She adapted the very first day. She is amazing when it comes to pre-school. She LOVES it! Don't get me wrong we miss our Vivi (nanny). She will be here this Friday night watching Lilly for us.

Lilly also got in the pool for the first time. She loves that too. We go to the pool at least once every weekend and once during the weekday. She is a water baby.

The other big thing Mike and I have been doing almost everyday is walking 5 miles. The entire family goes. Yep Twiggy rides in the Bob as well. Today we even added the run to it. However we started at 12 in 90 degree heat. So it about killed us both. Lilly sleeps pretty much the entire way. Twiggy is upfront getting her breeze on and just happy to participate.

I cannot believe Lilly with be 5 months on the 19th. Everybody is very correct when they say time goes by so fast. She is in love with her butterfly toy. Oh and her new thing is the bathroom paper cups. She has to have one in her hand all the time. Who knows.

Lilly is teething a bit. Nothing we cannot handle. A little chewing on baby bottle nipples. Nothing major yet. I have been told frozen bananas. Also Lilly prefers to walk not even attempting to crawl. She wants me to hold her in standing position all the time while she tries to walk everywhere. If I put her down you think the world was coming to an end.

Currently she is in her door swing. She is quite the entertainer with herself. We pretty much can just sit back and relax. That is a wonderful thing.

More later. Go Flyers!!
