New Jersey Shore - Part 2

We have had fun the past few days here at the Shore!  On Sunday we went to the bay beach (shallow water and tiny waves, perfect for babies).  Yesterday we went to see Lucy the Elephant.

Here are some pictures of Lila playing in the water and the sand!

We ended the day with a nice walk!

New Jersey Shore - Part 1

Lila and I are at my Aunt's shore house in New Jersey.  We have had a relaxing first few days.

Isaac visited the ER for the 1st time today.  He fell and had to have his forehead glued back together.

9 Months

Lila is 9 months old today!  We went to her check-up today and the Dr. said she looked great.  She is 17.44 lbs, 27.25 inches. 

So it's official, Lila can crawl (on her hands and knees)! Yesterday she not only figured out how to really crawl, but also to get back into a sitting position from her belly. It's amazing to watch her learn new things everyday!

It's a little blurry, but here is a short clip of her crawling!

Here are a just a few cute pics from this week.

Snack time ~ Cheese and watermelon

Crazy hair and funny face

Reading

Her new favorite thing to do, pull out the DVDs.

 Playing (she has been getting pretty good at entertaining herself)

Cantaloupe

Today I gave Lila cantaloupe for the first time. I think she's teething, so I froze some and gave it to her in the mesh feeder. She really seemed to enjoy it!

A week in our life!

Here are some random pictures of what we do during the week.

Every morning Lila plays with her toys while I get her breakfast ready.

Lila likes to "help" with the laundry

Sometimes Lila gets stuck under the couch

On our way to tiny tales at the library

After the library we had a play date at Vivi's house.

Daddy's home! Lila is always excited when he gets home from work!
