All 4's

Lilly is on all 4's! She has been pushing herself up onto all 4's and trying to move forward. She hasn't started moving forward yet but she is steady on her hands and knees. She has however dis covered she can kinda crawl backwards. I caught this pic as she was sliding down onto her tummy again...Go Lilly Go!

Early christmas present

I caved... it's official. I gave her a present early, but in my defense she was having a rough day and I just thought it would help. She seems to like it in 5 minute increments, I think mostly because she's not quite sure how to bounce in it, so I end up bouncing her.

Oh food

Lilly is not a huge fan of solid foods yet.. although we have found a few tricks that have helped us to get her to at least take a few bites. She has many silly tricks up her sleeve, such as pursing her lips together so that you can't pry her mouth open even with the jaws of life, putting her hands up to cover her mouth or rub her eyes as if to say, I'm to tired to eat... or my new favorite, if by chance you should manage to get some food into her mouth she simply opens up wide, sticks her tongue out and lets the food slide right off. It's quite entertaining.Both of these pictures were just to cute to not post, the top one is from today, she kept trying to take the bowl from me, so i sad you know your outfit is already dirty... have at it. I think she was shocked I let her make a mess. It was all so new to her it didn't last very long, but my hope is that by letting her play with it she will learn it's good. The bottom picture is just Lilly being Lilly. Dinner was going good, and she realized that hmmm this food isn't so bad after all. She was a happy girl and trying to share her food with mommy. What a good girl!

Zoo lights

Last night we went to the Denver Zoo lights. It was a blast for all of us. I love this zoo because there are so many hippo displays!!! I love the Hippos! And Lilly seemed to also. The animals were inside nice and cozy because it's so darn cold here. But we went into where the elephants, rhinos, and hippos were and the rhino was asleep and the hippos were under water cuddling, when they popped there heads up Lilly got all excited and started trying to talk to them, before that she was quiet and just enjoying the ride. We went by the sea lions and they started barking at Lilly and so she growled back at them, Ziff and I were dying it was hilarious. Were are all bundled up and still cold but we'd do it again next year.

Lilly's first snow

Over the last 48 hours it has snowed a total of 7.5 inches! It was crazy our honda is burried out there. Luckily the jeep was in the garage. Lilly took daddy out on the porch in the morning to check it out... silly daddy went out barefoot, she thought it was funny. After naptime Lilly and I ventured out to get a closer look at her first sonw, she thought it was really cold. She was all bundled up in her nice warm snowsuit and fleece jammies... it was only 14 degrees out so we had to really bundle. I think she likes the snow and will like it alot more when she can throw snowballs at daddy.
