This teeny tiny little nugget.....


Is NOT so teeny tiny anymore. She was sick this last week. I took her to the doctor on 1/10/11 (3 days before she turned 5 months old) and she weighed in at a whoppin 19 pounds 13 ounces. Oh how I miss the days of carrying her around in her carseat, and she was oh so light!! Now, its hard for me to carry her, without the carseat! She is one hefty little mama :)
A few things about Lilly Lou that I always want to remember:
- she is a total mama's girl. She can be screaming, but the second she see's her mommy, she knows she is safe. LOVE THIS.
- she fits into a size 4 diaper. Yikes! I never have had a baby wear past size 4, but Lilly just may....
- Lilly does not like fruit!
- I finally got Lilly to like squash, peas, green beans, carrots, sweet potatoes and avacodos. She definatly does not have a liking for sweet stuff (pretty sure this trait does not come from her daddy!)
-she has rolled over a handful of times, but prefers to lay on her back.
-she is a very chill baby.
-Lilly loves her big brother and sister, she lights up when they talk to her.
-Boston isn't the most gentle boy around, so he is a little too rough with Lil at times. I'm sure she'll learn her own defense quickly.
-She sleeps in her crib, in Rylee's room.
-She usually wakes only once a night, but lately, with her being sick, its been a lot more frequent.
-Lilly loves her jumperoo. Loves Loves Loves it.
-She is the most precious and adorable thing ever! She has some MAJOR thunder thighs, but we couldn't love them more! She is able to brighten anyones day, with her HUGE, open mouth smile. It makes me smile, just to think about it.
-Lilly is still 100% breastfed. She eats atleast 6 times a day, then baby food one time a day. I love breastfeeding her, its our time together.
-Lilly usually ends up in my bed by morning time. She wakes in the night, I feed her and then bring her to bed with me. We snuggle :)
-Boston will ask to hold her and when I say no he says "but she's my best friend"
-Lil got spoiled for Christmas, but can't play with any of the toys she received...but this next year as she grows, she has many things waiting for her!
Lilly, Please stop growing. You are our last baby, and I an enjoying you being my little chubs. I love your smiles, your giggles (lately, I have been the only one to make you laugh), I love your snuggles, your snorts (remember she's sick ) and your chubby thunder thighs. Please please please stop growing!

I love how you write so many details about each of your kids. I wish I had been better about doing that because those are the little things that are harder to remember as time goes by. You are so amazing at keeping your blog updated and interesting. You inspire me ;) Your kids are so adorable!
