Presents
Lily had a great Christmas with lots of fun and thoughtful gifts.Some Christmas photos:
Her little push wagon. She can use this as a walker in the next few months.
Lily and Violet, or what I can Teddy Ruxbin 3000. This is from Leapfrog and is programmable. It says her name, knows her favorite colors, animals, etc. and sings her songs and talks to her. Pretty amazing stuff! She thinks it tastes good now and that's about it. But I know she'll learn a lot from it as she figures things out.
Next, what we woke up to Sunday morning.
And finally, Nana got run over by a reindeer!!

Moving around...
Lately, one of our favorite pastimes is to see how much Lily moves around at night. She is going down to sleep really well. She may not fall asleep right away, but she will talk and giggle to herself and finally fall fast asleep. Usually we put her down in her crib so her head is towards the window and her feet are towards the closet.
She is moving a lot now. This is how I found her.
Her head is next to the closet. The girl is doing a 180, and then backing her head into the corner.
Apparently the paci is making the trip as well. But she sure is cute when she wakes up!
Christmas pics coming soon!

Christmas Dress
We got some ADORABLE clothes for Lily from cousin Sheena and Auntie Sandy. Lily wore this dress to church, complete with shoes. Usually kids don't need shoes, but in this case, about 4 extra inches of tights were stuffed into the bottom of the shoes. Hey, we make it work.
Jason is growing in his winter facial hair. I have mixed feelings.
And our Christmas card pictures. Jason did a fantastic job on these. We did it in about 30 minutes because we procrastinate, the coupon expired that day, and Lily was getting into her grumpy mood. But Jason got some great shots.
She sure moves a lot, as you can tell by her ghost foot and blurry face. My favorite one is this one, and Jason's edit after.
That cute little tongue! It looks like she is trying hard. I don't think she pooped though, so she must just be thinking. I love Christmas!!

She has changed
Lily is going to be 20 weeks tomorrow. I can't believe how fast the time has flown by. These are the days of our lives. Its amazing how much she has changed. Here she is when we were leaving the hospital.
She was SO tiny! I remember the drive home and Jason and I wondering what we got ourselves into. We still don't know.
Here she is in her car seat today:
She looks huge!
She rolled over yesterday from her stomach to her back. I don't think it was on purpose, but she did it. I had her doing her tummy time in the crib while I picked out her clothes. When I turned back to get her, she was halfway over. Then she landed on her back and started playing with her hands like an old pro. This is happening way too fast! As soon as she's mobile we aren't going to be able to just leave her places. She may not be there when we get back! I'm going to have to look into low-jacking my baby.

Cooking day
This quick post isn't about Lily but it is about some freakish food in my kitchen. I am trying to watch my carbs so I made some hard boiled eggs. I put some vinegar in the water. Supposedly it helps keep the egg white together if an egg cracks. This is the egg I got.
And to add it that, this is the largest butternut squash I've ever seen. I almost weighs more than Lily!
That is a 4 cup measuring cup next to it and it is that close to the bottom of my cupboards. That sucker weighed over 9 lbs! Crazy. I'll be freezing some squash for sure.

Lily's New Toy
We've graduated Lily to a play mat on the floor with one of those toys that has stuff that hangs in her face and she can grab it. This one makes noise and she has the best time with it. When we went to the doctor for our four month check up, I felt bad for saying she put her hands together, because she really didn't do it on purpose. My doc seemed like he didn't believe me when I said she didn't, so I said she did and pretended like I didn't know what he meant. So I'm agreeing that she has played with her fingers and meanwhile I'm thinking "How is she going to function in daily life when she doesn't even know her hands are hers to operate???"
Fast forward 5 days and she is all about her hands. But as you can see from the video here, her right hand is still controlling her. It all started when she was about 2 months old. She'd have her paci in her mouth, and that right hand would come closer and closer to her paci. She'd see it coming because her eyes would get all wide, but then that hand would yank it out of her mouth. Then she'd scream. We're still not sure if she was upset about losing her paci or if it was the rogue hand that was bothering her. But I'm thinking its that hand. It seems to have a mind of its own. She looks surprised by its behavior in any case.
Either that or she is one slow motion ninja. Hiiii yah!
