8 Months

Today Lilly is 250 days old! (8 months and 5 days)
She is getting to be a very talkative little girl! no real words yet. She loves to babble dada, baba, but not mama! That's okay I know it will come soon! Not much has changed from the last blog, but I have had to put away some of her old clothes she just grew out of! She is now fitting great into the 6-9 months, and some 6-12 month outfits! She hasn't been weighted lately but I'm sure she is just over 17 lbs! She has to triple her birth weight (6 lbs, 6oz) by one year. I think she can do it! She has to be one year and 20 lbs to be able to be front facing in the car. She will be a happier rider when that happens because she will be able to see what is going on.

I have been back to school for over a week now so Lillyann gets to spend 3 days a week with her Great Grandma Kupka. Lillyann loves to go over there, I think Great Grandma loves to have Lilly there too. Lilly loves to get up close to Buster,(Grandpa's new pug) but she does not like it when he barks!

Lillyann usually gets to see Madison on Wed. When Grandma picks her up from daycare. Lillyann likes to play with Madison, now that Lilly is on the move, she can follow her around!

Happy New Year

We had a Merry Christmas, How about you? This is how ours went...
We started off the holiday at Grandma Debs house where she opened a few presents with Great Aunt DeDe. The boys helped her get her toys out of the boxes and showed her how to play with them. Then we had to leave to get to Great Grandma and Grandpas where many people were waiting to see her. Great Aunt Angie couldn't wait to hold her. Great Aunt Denise had drawn her name for the gift exchange and got her a leap pad book reader which she loves to listen too. We then went back to Grandma Debs and opened more presents. Lillyann got lots of books and a soft blanket that Grandma Deb made. While we were opening presents Santa and Mrs. Clause came in and surprised us with gifts and candy canes! Taylor was so surprise and excited to see Santa.
The next morning we were off to Grandpa and Grandmas house where we opened presents with Matthew, Rachel, Madison, and Grandpa and Grandma. Lilly and Maddie both got a tickle me Elmo which Lilly loves, she laughs at him when he is rolling around and laughing. Then we went over to Great Grandma Baulers for lunch and to open presents. Lillyann got bath toys and lots of books!
Our house is now full of toys! Thank you everyone for all the great gifts!

Lillyann is now up to all lot a things here are a few:
- Pulling herself up on anything she can
- Standing with help
- Walking with the help of the couch, or table
- Eating three meals a day
- Saying Da-da
- Clicking with her tongue
- laughing when she thinks something is funny
- crawling everywhere
- Eating some finger foods

She is on the MOVE!

7 months has flown by! She will be celebrating her first Christmas in just days!

She has been unwrapping one gift under our tree for a month! It only has a little paper left on it. I really don't think she cares about what it is in it, she just loves the paper. Grandma Deb gave her one gift early, it was the safety gate! We needed it! This little girl is every where! She loves to see what every one is doing. She crawls on all fours, but sometimes she would rather just army crawl! She has been saying "dadada" for about a week now! She loves to pull herself up to stand.

I will be writing more about her first Christmas so check back after Christmas! :o)

Merry Christmas Everyone!

6 months

WoW! has Lillyann gotten big! She was six months November 19th. She has mastered sitting by herself. Which she loves to sit and play with toys, and if she is not sitting she loves to army crawl everywhere. She likes to play with cords, so we now have to baby proof the house! We going to have to get a safety gate soon so she can not get into the kitchen! She could get into a lot of trouble in there.

She loves to laugh and smile, I get to see more and more of her personality come out everyday!

We put up our Christmas tree and she loves to look at all the lights and to touch the branches! She has no interest in the presents under the tree yet!

Here are a few pictures..

She is sitting up with support and loves to sit and watch everything going on. She lately has been sitting by herself for a couple minutes then she gets unblanced and falls over.
She also is army crawling around the living room floor. She will get up on her knees and will stay down on her elbows , or her face and just push herself around!
Lilly has a blast playing in the jumperoo with Corey! He loves to grap her feet and bounce her up and down, he loves to see her smile and laugh!
