Little Boy

Some back ground: church is sort of behind the Electronic Express. We cut through a parking lot to get to church.
On our way to church we saw a little boy outside of Electronic Express walking away from the store on the side walk with no adults around. He looked to be about 18 months or so. He was walking away with his cute little pacifier in his mouth just having a great time. I made Asher unlock the van and stop. I got out. He pulled around through the parking lot and waited. I noticed when I got out that a man in a wheel chair had left the store and was getting in his car. I am guessing he had used the automatic door opener and left the store and the little boy went right behind him. He did not notice till I got to the little boy. I took the boy by the hand. He was so cute! I walked the little boy to the store thinking this is a good place to start. A lady in another car who saw me stopped and was concerned. I got through the door and the little boy was recognized. "How did you get out?", was the response from the man (looked like grandpa). I was not looking for thanks or anything but some appreciation would have been nice or some more concern for the little boy. The man in the wheel chair and the lady in the car were pleased that all worked out well. I am very thankful I got to the little boy before he wondered to far or into traffic. You never know what will happen on the way to church. :)

7 Months

Lilia is amazing! We are so happy. She is such a joy and is learning things everyday. I don't feel like it has been seven months. She is very determined young lady! She wants to be in the middle of the action. She will reach as far as she can for a toy and then manage to reach even farther. She is 19 lbs. Everyone wants to touch those adorable cheeks. We are so blessed.

Things Lilia Can Do

Lilia is sitting up and she reaches forward with her hands and ends up on her stomach and knees.
She can sit in the grocery cart and play. She loves looking around and this makes shopping easier for Mom.
Pulling up on anything she can reach. So far this has been her crib, changing table, play gym, and some larger toys. Some times she only can get to her knees but others times she has gone all the way to feet!
She has been holding her sippy cup but not the bottle. Now she will hold her bottle when she wants too. The angle has to be corrected but she loves holding the bottle.

She is growing so fast. Her 6 month check up was a little later than we normally go because of our trip to Utah.

18.5 lbs
26.5 inches long

The Doctor said she was looking great. She was amazing with her shots. Delayed crying and calmed down when I held her. She slept most of the day.

A Plum, a Plane, a Porch and a Panda

We are at the airport getting ready to leave for SLC. We packed some fruit for us and Lilia. Lilia decided she would share her peach with daddy. The airport has play areas for kids. She loved the bright colors and she test pilot a plane. We are staying with my brother and his family. We tried out the panda rocker. she was not sure about it. We are having a great time.

6 Months

Lilia is 6 months old today! She is amazing. She is sitting up and loves standing. When I put her in her rocking chair she could sit up on her own. I did not have to worry about her sliding out. She had mango yesterday and loved it. She can pick up a toy with one hand and switch to the other. She is getting on a nap plan. She has a short nap mid morning and longer nap in the afternoon. She is eating 3 meals day and formula in between.
We are so blessed and count our blessings everyday. We love you Lilia! We are so happy you are in our family.

A Mile Walk

We decided to take a walk yesterday. The loop around our house is one mile. It was a nice evening for walk. Lilia was great. We saw some friends along the way. Lilia fell asleep before we reached home. we are going to try and walk more now that the weather is getting nice (not as hot).

Dinner Time

Lilia loves sitting with us at the dinner table. She sits in a booster seat. She is strapped in. She will put her feet on the table side/ledge and push. We have to keep one of our feets on the chair rung so she does not tip over when she pushes. She bangs on the table and loves her napkin. I have to keep it out of her mouth. She loves her sippy cup. she gets watered down juice. She also likes to chew on the sippy cup.

Yellow Walker

This yellow walker is very old. Grandma used it with her kids. Lilia loved being able to move around. It is different from the walker she has at home which has a back on it. She also loved the "orange" ball grandpa gave her.
