Grandpa Childers Feeding Lilly

I have never seen my dad act this way before, he actually volunteered to feed Lilly and was acting absolutely ridiculous! It's fun watching our daughter with her grandparents, we are so thankful that she's able to have them so close. If you want a good laugh and don't mind spending 4 minutes of your day, watch the video. :)

Giggles & Screams!

7 Months Old

Can you believe how time just flies by so fast!?!? Lilly has grown so much this passed month. She started crawling and has discovered a whole new world. She loves to babble away and is the happiest baby in the world. She spends the mornings and part of the afternoon while I am at work with my parents. It's fun seeing how much Lilly loves them - she actually reaches out for my dad, it's crazy! Now that she's crawling, our dog Maggy can't get any rest. Lilly will crawl to where Maggy is and try to grab her tail - Maggy will usually wait until she gets there and run away and lay down. Then here comes Lilly again. Maggy is really good with her though. The funniest thing is when Maggy starts licking Lilly's hands - it makes her laugh hysterically!

Mother's Day Weekend

Mother's Day was wonderful - Brandon started the weekend off the second I got home from work on Friday. I walked in the door to find these beautiful flowers waiting for me on the counter and the whole house cleaned spotless! I spent the whole evening cuddling with Lilly and watching some fun chick-flick.
On Saturday I treated myself to a pedicure and just lounged around the house most of the day, it was fabulous! Then I woke up on Sunday when Brandon brought Lilly to bed with me so we could snuggle. And the one request I had, was for some donuts for breakfast - I haven't had one in so long since we're trying to eat better. It was the most amazing maple bar EVER! Yum!
It was just perfect, spending the day with my wonderful little family. We are so blessed to have Lilly in our life. Whenever I see her smile or hear her laugh, it melts me heart. This was the first Mother's Day in 8 years that I wasn't overwhelmed with sadness. I never imagined I could feel this happy and so in love with our darling daughter. I hope everyone's Mother's day was just as peaceful as mine.

6 Months Old!!!

Where has the time gone? Our little girl is already 6 months old. She can pretty much sit on her own now for a little bit and likes to flip on her tummy every second she can. I put her in the tub the other day and as much as I tried to get her to stay on her back, she just flipped onto her tummy and started kicking like crazy - She loved it! Lilly is just the sweetest little girl ever. We go for her 6 month check up next week, I can't wait to see how big she is!

Happy Easter!

We enjoyed having Lilly's first Easter. Although we were all sick, Lilly was adorable and happy most of the day. She got a couple of Mr. Men & Little Miss books, 2 stuff animals & her first couple bottles of fruit to try, which she was a little weirded out at first by the new flavor - but she loves her banana's now.
Of course, she was ADORABLE with her bunny ears on, but as you can see below - Maggy didn't enjoy them as much. :)
