Church, lunch, and meeting another friend!

One of our good friends Matt was in town this weekend, so we met him at Mimi's Cafe after church for brunch! He moved to Atlanta a few months ago, so he met Lily for the first time! He thought she was pretty cute! He couldn't get over all of her outfits and bows! It was so good to see him, and we hope to see him again soon! Thanks for coming to meet us buddy! We miss you!! Lily was very well behaved in church today! We were so proud!! We love you Lily!!! You are so sweet!! I hope everyone had a great weekend!! XOXOXO

First Real Smiles!!!!!

This morning Eric put together a great new toy for Lily! Grammy sent her this awesome bouncy seat! We put her in it this morning and she absolutely loved it!!! She just smiled and smiled!!! We have been seeing her smirk here and there, but we think this morning she had her first real smiles!!! Eric and I took out all of her toys and played with her while she bounced around in her cute bouncy seat!! Thanks so much Grammy... and Papa too!!! We love our new seat!!! She was so adorable and she seemed so happy!!! We were so excited to see her smile!!! I tried to get pictures of her smiling, but it was really hard... I got a few though!! Lily, we love to see you smile and we look forward to many more fun times with you!! We love you so much angel!!!








Bath Time with the sweetie!

Last night we gave little miss a bath while Katie was here. Lily just loves her bath time and we wanted to show Katie how cute she was! Well, Katie took some pictures and they are just too funny!!! Lily is so sweet after her baths! She is all comfy and cozy and she snuggles up to us!! That is one of our favorite times with Lily!!! She cuddles up to our neck and we just melt!!! She loves to be sang to, so Eric and I always make up these funny songs that don't make sense... we sound like idiots to normal adults... but not to Lily! She loves it!!! We love you Lily!!! Your cuddles and snuggles are what we look forward to every day!!! You make us so happy!

How funny is this!!
Look at the little string bean!
Oh, I love getting my hair washed!!!
Mommy and Daddy love giving me a bath!
(We usually use her spa, but last night we just wanted to give her a quick bath!)

This outfit is one of Daddy's favorites... her little polo dress and shoes! She looked so cute!!! Katie came over for dinner tonight while Stan was out of town. She just loves Lily!! She loves to hold her, and it gives Mommy and Daddy a break!! I hope everyone is having a great weekend!!! Love to all!! XOXOXO

Meeting some more of Mommy's friends

One of my best friends, Nina was passing through Jacksonville this morning, and we just had to see her! We went and met her for breakfast, and she just loved Lily!!! We both talked about how we can't believe I have a baby!! She couldn't believe how little Lily was!! Her sister Rach was there too, and she thought Lily was adorable also! I was in Nina's wedding in March, and they are moving to South Carolina! She was in my wedding almost 4 years ago! Nina and I have been friends since the 6th grade!! I love you Nina and it was so good to see you!! Good luck with the move! We hope to see you soon!!!

I am such a big girl!

We are having a good week so far! I hope everyone is is having a good week! Lily is doing great! She is growing and changing every day! It is such a joy to just sit and stare at her watching her make all of her little faces and hear her make all of the little noises! My word, we love her so much!! She has become more alert, and we think we have been seeing some smiles! She is a really good eater, but I started to think she wasn't getting enough! I would feed her like every hour and a half, and I didnt think she was completely satisfied! So I called the ped. to see if it was ok to give her like one formula bottle a day... she said that was totally fine, so today I tried it. Well... let me tell you, she sucked down the entire 4 ounces and loved every minute of it! When she was finished I swear she went into a food coma! She was so very content! It was so cute to watch her drink out of her bottle, she looked like such a big girl!!! I was a little nervous that she wouldn't want to nurse anymore, but after lunch today I nursed her, and she did completely fine!! So I am going to start to give her one formula bottle a day. She is sleeping really well at night, and Eric and I even got to watch a movie last night! She has been such a great baby, and we are so proud of her! Lily, momma and daddy love you so much, you are the little light of our lives!! XOXOXO

Ummm. yes, I am such a big girl!
I am so content... food coma!
Ok... now momma, I can only deal with so much! I am over it!


Meeting a new friend!

My friend Joi and her daughter Abby came over today for a visit!! Abby just turned 2 and she is so cute!! I think when she first saw Lily, she thought she was a doll! She came right up to her and reached like she was gonna pick her up! It was so cute!! Lily just laid there! She wasn't a very fun play partner for Little Miss Abby, but someday she will be! Abby kept pointing to Lily and saying "Baby"... "Baby", it was so sweet!!! We went to grab a quick bite at the Loop, and both of the girls did great!!! They were both so good!!! Abby sat there like a little princess and ate her food, and Lily was awake, but she just chilled out in her seat! We had a good time! Thanks Joi and Little Miss Abby for coming, we had a good time! We will have to do it again sometime soon!
