My little girl!!! I love her so much. She's trying to be a big girl but thinks tummy time STINKS. Tonight we went on a walk with her in her Snugli carrier (nearly 11 years old, that thing), and she stayed awake the whole time, looking up at the sky and trees or flirt smiling with her daddy. She does these sweet intakes of breath, seeming to indicate when she is really excited about something. She is also starting to do the thing where when she is lying down on her back she gets wide eyed and kicks her legs and wiggles her arms in mad excitement when I start talking to her.
It's funny how much she looks like baby Lil but also different. Regardless, I get told how beautiful my baby is multiple times a day, so I'll keep her. I may not be the looker of all lookers, but my kids are pretty and handsome and I LOVE THEIR EYES!
And on a nearly unrelated side note, just so I remember, I was reflecting back this week on the day I went into labor and the week afterward. I obviously wasn't feeling well, and that day my children were all around me, and Ben was trying to brush my hair and rub my back and Lily was too, maybe even Shawn. Then, in the week after we got home, I remember several times Lily giving me a back massage. It is so sweet how they wanted to take care of their mommy and could tell she wasn't feeling the best.
In completely unrelated news, Shawn is so sneaky (but so adorable while doing it). Every morning that I don't wake up before him, I can hear him rifling through packages in the pantry. Yesterday, he stole a whole pack of gum from the top of the microwave, stealthily went outside and ate it--the bowels seems to be just fine so I guess that myth is false. He also has let the cat out 4 times in the last few days (an indoor, way too curious cat). Oh, and there are so many other things. I am relaxed enough now that I reprimand him but am laughing on the inside--most of the time. He just does not stop. It is something new multiple times a day.
In conclusion, as I always say, my life is no boring, ever, ever, ever.
PS. Cheering for Lil who is hopefully (if she doesn't give up) trying out for the school talent show this week).
