Play Time with the Ultimate Staredown!



Lily seem to love play time!! She will stare at these freaky little animals for quite a while giving her Mommy little breaks throughout the day. YEAH!! Although, I think she is just as confused as we are as to WHAT she is looking at exactly. Ahhh, those crazy toy makers. How do those elves come up with this stuff? If they were only as tall as they are smart.

Uncle Drake


Uncle Drake is proving to be a GREAT first time Uncle. Granpa "G" (aka Roger) and GlamMa (aka GraMary) and Uncle Drake stopped by to give Lily some attention and some great presents on Saturday. Uncle Drake spent his allowance on the softest blanket for Lily as well as a pink teddy bear. This is her official first teddy bear and is just like the one Drake had as a baby...of course..Drake's was not pink. Lily stared at her Uncle Drake in awwww, as the rest of us do now. She really took a liking to him....sounds like a babysitter in the making!

So tiny...but getting bigger!




OK, a long overdue post to talk about how great our little girl has been. She turned two weeks old yesterday and gave US a great birthday present by getting back up to her birth weight! In fact, she weighed in at 7 pounds and 10 ounces.

I have attached a picture of her looking so small. We KNOW she is going to get bigger but we really do like her just this size.

Fathers Day!

My first one as a papa. It feels great. Lil has been sleeping great and making things as easy as she can on us. Today is the first day we really have had alone time as a family. Lily just finished watching the Nationals game out on the porch with me. The Nats beat the Blue Jays 4-2 (Zimmerman home run) and Lily celebrated, if you count having your arms raised above your head while sleeping celebrating. Here are some more pics from the first week.

The first night at home

Aparently someone let Lily in on the secret that babies are allowed to cry for no reason if they want. We have had many vistors so I am not sure who the one that told her was. Up until now she had not cried hardly at all. However she decided last night to let us know she was in on the secret. Or maybe she just wanted to enjoy watching clueless parents run trough creative arays of things to get her to sleep. Mom was fantastic though and Grandma Judy was a great help.

Lily Day 1

More to come. Everything is going great. When Lily Indira came out it was like one of those pop up tents being pulled out of a bag, so tiny coming out, then poof, unfolded into a baby. We will be home from the hospital tomorrow(Wednesday). Thanks to everyone for the love and support!
