New Pictures...finally

Holy cow! Has it really been almost 2 months since we've posted? I don't even know where to begin updating everybody, but I'll sure try! (That is, if anybody is even still checking this bad boy).

I made it through the Casino Night with flying colors, and went back on Paternity Leave on November 7. Later that week, we took an extended weekend visit up to Uncle Eric and Aunt Brandi's to spend some time with the niece/nephews/cousins, and Eric and Brandi as well... :) We had a wonderful visit, and while we were there jumped on the wonderful Craigslist and picked us up a laptop! Now, all we need is a faster internet connection!



Lily had a doctors appointment on November 14th. She weighed in at 10lbs 12oz, and was 21 3/4 inches long at that time. All of this is within the proper parameters. She has started lifting her upper body up while laying down, so that whole "sitting up on her own" thing is just around the corner. The doctor saw this, and announced that Ms. Lily was "advanced" for her age. She's definitely developing her own personality, and is "talking" up a storm!



For Thanksgiving, we packed up a good majority of our house (for those of you who don't have children, going ANYWHERE with a baby in tow means either upgrading to a bigger vehicle, or always travel with somebody who has plenty of room for all of the baby stuff that goes along with them...) and spent a week out in Seaside with Gramma and Grampa Moo, Papa Dennis, Unkie Andy, and Uncle Pat. Everybody seemed to have a great time, and it was a nice relaxing week at the coast!



Tonya went back to work on Wednesday, so the last two days I've been playing Mr. Mom. So far so good! I'll let you know how this little exercise works out! After two day's I feel like a pro...so I'm waiting for the proverbial other shoe to drop! Thank you, oh internet faithful for bearing with our slackerness. I think I'm going to stop saying we'll try harder, because frankly, until we get a faster internet connection, this dial up thing is just unbearable!
