Beautiful Day on the Lake

Anson, I and Lily went jetskiing at Berlin Lake with my parents yesterday. It was a gorgeous day! We took Sampson swimming too. It was a lot of fun.

On Friday I took Lily to the doctor's. I thought she had a cold. She was fussy, stuffy and had a bit of a fever. But, when we got to the doctor's, she was fine. When I took her temp at home it was 100.1, but when we got to the doctor's it was only 98.6. Who knows. The pediatrician was very nice. He said that it never fails that everyone - no matter age - feels better when they get to the doctor's office. I still don't think she feels good though. She hasn't been eating well and has been very fussy. I don't feel well either, but I think mine is mostly lack of sleep. Lily weighed 11 lbs, 2 oz. on Friday. She's a growing girl!

As you can see, Lily slept a lot!She likes to sleep with her arms up by her head like this.

Very adorable whale outfit from Great Grandma from Germany! Thank you!!

Peeve saying hello to Baby Girl!

Happy 4th of July 2007

It's 12:45 a.m. and Lily and I are watching "Jon & Kate Plus 8." It's a reality show about a couple who has a set of 6 year old twins and a set of 2 year old sextuplets on the Discovery Health channel. Watching it makes me appreciate my ONE baby and makes me think I have it easy compared to some people!

Lily has the hiccups so I can't take her to bed yet. So, I figured I'd update the blog until she gets rid of them =)

We had a good day today. We were supposed to go jetskiing with my parents, Jamie and Jeremy but the weather didn't cooperate. So, we just hung out at my parents' house and had a cookout. Then, tonight, a group of us went to see the downtown fireworks. Anson, me, Jill, Mindy and Dave. My parents came over and watched Lily so we could go. It ended up being a really fun day. And, we're going to still go jetskiing on Saturday...yeah!

(Ut-Oh, I think I smell Lily's diaper, so I better make this quick...)

American Girl dress from Great Grandma from Germany...thanks Grandma!

First Smiles!!

I can't believe I caught this on Camera, but I did! Here are Lily's first smiles. She smiles a lot while she's falling asleep or asleep but this smiles are when she's wide awake! Also, here are two videos. On the first one I got a little smile, and on the second I caught her sneezing. The videos are a little dark so look closely. Enjoy!

New Addition to the Nursery

We painted cut-out letters of Lily's name and hung them on her wall. We included two ladybugs because we like to call her Lily Bug =)

Cooing & A Video

I forgot to mention that Miss Lily started cooing recently. It's really precious. It's like she's trying so hard to tell me something. I tried to get her on video doing it but she just had the hiccups. Here is the video of Lily and her daily hiccups.

First Sleep Over

Lily had her first sleep over last night. My mom offered to watch her over night and I took her up on her offer! I got 9 hours of sleep last night! That's the most I've gotten since before she was born. It was a much needed break. Anson and I took Sampson to the park, went and got ice cream, gave each other massages and watched TV together. We had a great night! But, I missed her like crazy!!!

My mom and Lily had a great time too! Poor Grandma only got about a half hour of sleep...welcome to my world!

Little Tigger! The outfit Lily wore to go visit all my work friends today at GOJO. Thank you Jen W. for the adorable outfit...we love it! We had a great time visiting with everyone! I'll be back there before I know it.
