2 Months Already?!

I seriously can't believe how FAST time is going! It seems like Lilly was just born yesterday, but yet I can't imagine life without her now. She is a dream! She's such a sweet baby!

She is in the 90th percentile for her height and weight--so her good eating habits are paying off!
She weighed 12 lbs 5 oz and was 23.5 inches long at her dr. appt. this past week. She is smiling and cooing like crazy. She is starting to recognize when mommy isn't RIGHT there and will go back to smiling when mommy is back in view again. She loves to watch her mobile while swinging away in her swing. I think she's made the connection that if she kicks her feet, the toys on her bouncy seat will move.












She is a content and happy girl--we are lucky, actually I should say blessed parents!

Good times

Upon gettting up from his nap, Owen wanted his music turned on (and up real loud). Then when I went to the kitchen, he discovered some toys I had stashed under his bed. He played with the blocks building tower after tower for over an hour while he listened to his music.
(which allowed me to finish working on getting Lilly's room set up :) )


Owen found Jimmy's boots and wanted to dress like Daddy...he was convinced the get-up wasn't complete until he had Daddy's hat.

Lilly is such a smiley happy girl! I finally got her room set up (well, pretty much...need to do some final touches still). I laid her in her crib to see what she thought of her new room. She loved looking around at all the bright colors and new scenery.



One another's fun

A snapshot of what's to come...I think they'll be good friends.

Who woulda thought

...a toddler would like drops in his ears??




Owen went to the doctor on Tuesday and was diagnosed with a double ear infection. Now he is on his first anibiotic ever. I never would have guessed giving him ear drops would have been so welcomed by the boy. I tell him 3 times a day that it is time for his ear drops and he runs to the couch and lays on his side in anticipation for his treatment.

At Owen's Request

Well, truth be told, it started out as Daddy's request for Owen to take a nap with him on the living room floor while he sang a lullaby.

Then Owen asked if "Lala" could join, so she did.

Then Owen asked if "MomMee" could join, so she did
