Naming Ceremony and Sharing

At Dave Suess' son's Naming Ceremony in Alameda.  Dave read the girls, "Goldylocks and the Three Bears." Lillian loved the story!

She kept reaching for the book! 

Over the river and through the woods to the Coffee House we go!

Lillian finds a lot of joy in feeding mom  and dad.  Whenever we give her a cracker, or cookie, she always shares :)

Daddy wanna cracker?  Mmmmmmmmmm!

She literally gets airborne on this contraption!

Lillian got really excited watching the Bengal Tigers!

She was so excited she wanted to get a better look and literally stepped right onto the bench from the floor all on her own!

Keith did a great job keeping Lillian happy so Mommy could take a needed break :)

We had a good time swinging at the park!

Always On The Move!

Lillian is getting very good at pulling herself up from the floor and walking while holding onto stationary objects.  She 'cruised' around this box and nearly crawled over it yesterday! 

"Look into my eyes..."

"I got your hat mommy!"

"What up?"

"You should really try this pacifier, it's great!"

Tummy Time and Nature Walk!

O.K., so in every prenatal class I took, the instructor was like, "ALWAYS place your baby on his/her back when putting them to sleep and NEVER place them on their stomach!"  You can imagine my concern when I woke up one morning to find my daughter on her stomach!  I spoke to her Pediatrician about this and because she's doing this on her own, the risks are only minimal and not to worry about it.  Alright.... but it still makes me nervous!!

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
